The board, of which State Superintendent Clyde Erwin is ex-officio head, was created by an act, passed by the last Legislature. primary purpose of the act was to prevent "fly-by-night" schools from enrolling pupils, taking their money and then furnishing no instruction of value. Its major provision was that which required new schools to post bonds for the protection of their pupils. Mr.

Erwin requested the ruling when a private teacher in Charlotte applied for a license. KOLB ACCEPTS POST AT ALABAMA SCHOOL Robert P.

EXPECT NO DELAY IN RAILROAD CASE Receivers For Norfolk Southern Get Postponement But Seawell Not Worried The hearing on the "main controversy" between that State and other stockholders of the Atlantic and North Carolina Railroad and the Norfolk Southern Railroad probably will not begin for a month or more, in the opinion of Attorney General A. A. F. Seawell. However, he does not expect the case to drag on indefinitely as he believes this is one piece of litigation which both sides desire to have settled within the future.

near, Monday in Norfolk a hearing was begun before Master in Chancery George Pilcher to determine one phase of case--that concerned with the alleged right of a the Norfolk Southern receivers to abandon the lease under which the road had been operating the A. and N. C. The receivers continued to run the road, as the Interstate Commerce Commission insisted, but contended that from the date of the receivership the Norfolk Southern was not required pay the rent. The State and other stockholders took the opposite view.

However, receivers were not ready to present their evidence and that hearing was continued for two or three weeks, the date not being fixed. The "main controversy" will concern the State's claim that the Norfolk Southern owes the A. and N. C. a large, undetermined amount of money for damage to the leased line's roadbed and rolling stockin addition to the $200,000 claimed due for rental and taxes.

In the meantime, the A. and N. C. stockholders have experts examining the Norfolk Southern records, gathering evidence for the hearing. NOTARIES PUBLIC.

MASTERS WE STAUDT'S New MASTER LOAF DOROTHY DIX You Are Certain the Young Man Who Seems Intereste 1 in Your Daughter Is Unworthy, Use Tact Instead of Force to Break off a Possible Engagement mother whose daughter has got herself engaged to a most unworthy young man and is determined to marry him, wants to know how she can break off the match. Well, there are two schools of thougnt on the subject. One holds that parents have no right to lay sacreligious hands on love's young dream, while the other contends that it is fathers' and mothers' bounden duty to prevent their children from wrecking their lives by making fool marriages if they can.

Somewhere between these opposite poles of thought lies the truth Sometimes, of course, childen are better judges of what they want in a husband or wife than their fathers and mothers are for them, it for the most part those who have been through the mill of matrimony, and who know from experience how many things besides romance it takes to make a successful marriage, have acquired practical knowledge about picking mates that their sons and daughters do well to respect. All of which boils down into this that those who have found their soulmates will cleave to them, while those who are experiencing merely a passing infatuation can be diverted from it. So it is hardly too much to COSMETOLOGY TESTS WILL BEGIN MONDAY Over 300 Beauty School Graduates Apply; First Exams to Be Held Here Over 300 graduates of the 26 schools of cosmetology in North Carolina will take the quarterly examinations of the State Board of Cosmetic Arts Examiners, it was announced yesterday by Mrs. Annie Laurie Williamson of Raleigh, one of the three members of the board.

From 30 to 40 applicants will be examined each day here and at Chadlotte, said Mrs. Williamson, who will be assisted in giving the examinations by Miss Ethel Sinclair of Hickory and Mrs. Gertrude Hutchinson of Red Springs, members of the board. Approximately 850 applicants were examined at three examinations given last year; two of the examinations were given by the present board.

and Mrs. Dowd. that any match that CAN be say would broken save off the SHOULD divorce be courts broken a off. lot of work later on. How to keep the boy and girl who are in love with love and sloshing over with sentiment from believing they see and their rushing into matrimony has al ways affinities in any passing stranger been a problem with which parents have had to wrestle.

That they have never found the answer to the riddle is because they have gone about solving it the wrong way, They have used force, as if all the experience of humanity didn't teach that neither love nor youth can be coerced. When father and mother disapproved of Marybelle's suitor they forbid him in the house. Whereupon and eloped with him. When father and Marybelle climbed out of the window mother objected to John marrying the Jones girl, they harped upon roused her imperfections until they every drop of chivalrous blood in John's body and rushed him into marriage sO that he could protect her. There is no matchmaker equal to opposition because it forces girls and boys into the role of defenders and makes them such partisans that they lose sight of the defects that they once perceived in the slandered ones.

There are. however, many painless ways of breaking off an undesirable match without the patient ever knowing that a peck of trouble is being removed from his or her life. The most effective of these is giving the lovers overdose of each other's society, Suppose John, for instance, Dora is in whose love with a pretty little Dumb lisping baby-talk he feels he could listen forever. the York weds singing sisters, from New City to Lloyd of the Boswell, are shown just after the ceremony, Vet Boswell, a member of the noted where they were the guests of Mr. Chapman's parents, Mrs.

Mother doesn't waste her breath telling him that Dora would bore him to death if he were married to her. She invites her on a house party on which there are no other guests and where they must depend upon each other for society. feels By that the he end of would the scream second if day he was asked, 'Oose duckie is 'oo?" one more time. Long before the week is over he is calling for help from his office. Another way to break off a match that can be romantic highly heroes recommended out of is their to take the own environment and transplant them into that of your son or daughter.

The cowboy who looks picturesque when in his he chaps has shed his glamour gets on store clothes. The snappy comebacks of the waitress that sounded so witty when she sparred with a tomer seem vulgar and common across a dinner table. The lack of education, or culture, or familiarity with social conventions that seemed not to matter at all when tramping through moun tains or sailing on the sea loom insuerable obstacles to a marriage when the background is a drawing room instead of God's open spaces. I knew one mother who kept ner daughter from marrying a drunkard by sending her to visit a friend who had done so. One week of seeing the hardships, the poverty, the humiliations that a drunkard's wife endures made Isabel break off her engagement to a handsome and fascinating souse.

And I knew another woman who gently wafted a selfish, high-tempered and tyranical man to whom her daughter was engaged into the outer air by continually telling him how glad she was Maud was going to marry him, because Maud was so delicate she needed a big strong man who could take care of her and save her from every hardship; that Maud had always been used to having such pretty clothes and going on trips so she wouldn't really know how to do without them. Mother would sigh and say that she feared Maud was extravagant and useless, but she was such a dear. And by the time mother had got in her fine work she had given the suitor such a case of cold feet that he stumbled out of Maud's life forever. Oh, there are many ways of breaking an engagement if you will just choose the right method. DOROTHY DIX.
