Aj palling illiteracy in the state o North Carolina is revealed in ,t recent report made by the superin tendent of public instruction, sta tistics for which were gathered from the tests of draft registrants show ing that more than 1.000 young men between the ages of 21 and 31 years, residing in Guilford county alone, are unable to write their names. No distinction is made between white and colored residents; therefore it is impossible to determine racial percentages of illiteracy. This information will come as an unpleasant shock to those who have looked upon North Carolina as an earthly paradise. .The school reports show that there 'are 282 adult male and 186 female illiterates, and 33 illiterate boys and 17 illiterate girls in the county. These reports include of course adults of all ages, and their wide inaccuracy may be judged when it is remembered that the i'.raft took the "cream of the nation," not those elderly citizens who were pre vented from going to school during the- days of reconstruction follow ing the civil war. It is conservatively estimated that there are about 4,500 adults in Guilford county who are unable to write their names. County School superintendent, Thomas R. Foust is in receipt of a list of the 1,000 or more men who failed to pass mental test in the draft. Although the test given registrants was much easier than the one received by them after they got in to service., it will be observed that a surprisingly large percentage failed to pass, and it is recom mended that these persons, the man power of the country, shall be induced to attend adult schools, where they shall be given simple instruction by the most approved methods. Approximately half of those who failed to to pass the literacy test were employed in cotton mills: about one-fourth were common laborers, while another fourth were employed on farms. Although adult schools will nor be entirely new, their success would be unprecedented. In the past few persons have attended the ninht schools, although no aggressive campaign was made in behalf of education. It is suggested there fore, that friends of men and women who are unable to : write shall suppest to them the advisibilitv of attending the schools. lhce best of teachers would be needed, as it would require extreme tact to interest the old students in their work. But it can be done, as was revealed in the army, and North Carolina is gointr to do all possiblt to remove this stain from its reputation according to those interested in the project. H. M.

Commercial Training Gains , Popularity Every Year With the coming of the fall season comes too, the question of "What School To Attend?" whether to attend univer sity, whether to go higher than the com mon school, whether to go to work first snd attend school later.
