He began hta lecture by reading the Divine <<«nmwsinn to go into all the world and preach the guapel and stated that he believes every Christian should preach and that he had no Luth “in calls to the minirtiy.” He then proceeded to give the civil and religious status of Chi na, Japan, and India, portrayed their Id >1 worship, narrated what christianize b J done am! was doing for too** people, and concluded by exhorting Ute people to sus tain their missionaries.

There is nothing of more importance to the youth of our country, than a sound practical education. Indeed it is a mat ter* of first consideration, and in or ler that the foundation for an education may be laid in the shortest time and at the leastexpense it is necessarj' to have teach ers—those who, from experience, have shown an aptness for imparting instruc tion. Such a teacher is the Principal of the Norcross High Scheel. From Gwinnett Herald. J. U. Vincent, Principal, is a ripe schol iar and experienced teacher. From the Cartersville Standard. We again say to our people that no bet ter school can be had than this.
