On last Friday and Saturday a reunion of the old students of Sylvan Academy, in Alamonce county. near the Chatham line, was held and a fine new school building known as Harmon Memorial School formally dedicated. There was a large crowd of old students and visitors present both days and all of them enjoyed the occasion to the fullest extent. At this reunion and dedication speeches were made by Rev. W.

S. Long (former county superintendent of education) and Prof. B. H. Carroll, of Guilford College, while the chief address was made by Dr.

J. Y. Joyner, State superintendent of public instruction. Harmon Memorial School was made possible by the donation of worth of land hi Kansas by Mr. and Mrs.

Harmon, of that State. The building, which is of brick, contains live class rooms on the first floor and a large auditorium on the second. he school has 90 acres of land, and it is the intention of the authorities to convert the institution into a county farm school at an early date. The brick for the building was made on the school's land and the timber was cut from the forest, thereby enabling the building to be built at a cost of $7,000. A similar building in a town or city would have cost $12,000.

The law provides that "if any person shall. on any public road or highway in the State of North Carolina, in the hearing of two or more per! sons, in a loud and boisterous manner, use indecent or profane language, he shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be fined not exceeding fifty dollars or imprisoned not exceeding thirty days."

The State board of health is making preparations to put into operation the county machinery of the vital statistics law enacted by the last Legislature which 1 provides for the registration of all births and deaths in the State of North Carolina. According to the law, the chairman of the board of county commissioners in each county must appoint a local registrar of births and deaths in each township. This will probably be done by Chairman C. D.

Moore, of this county, in a few days. Each local registrar will be paid twenty-five cents for each birth certificate and each death certificate properly and completely made out and registered with him. correctly recorded and promptly returned by him to the State registrar, as required by the act. Of course the sue- cess of the law will largely de- pend upon the kind of local registrars appointed. If properly carried out, in a few Years the records obtained from the operation of this law will be one of the most valuable sets of records in the possession of the State.
