SALUTATORY.

As will be seen in another col
umn, the Literary Societies have re
established THE REPORTER. We sllitll
not worry our readers by a long-
winded salutatory, filled with prom
ises. YV e make no pledges; but
simply state that the reporter will
not be—nor is it intended to be, a
literary journal. It is our aim to
make it a newsy, college weekly, and
we shall endeavor to conduct it as
such,

can be found on sale by applying to
Joliu Daniel.
We want to request the students
to earefully examine onr advertise
ments, and patrofiize those who
have so liberally aided us.
The Pandora, we are sorry to
learn, is yet in debt. An effort is
now being made to pay up the defi
ciency. Should t.he debt be cleared
up, it is highly probable that Vol
ume II will be issued early in 1887.
The Technological school should
be established hereby all means. It
would be a most valuable thing to
Athens, because being the only
school in the Southern States of that
character, it would soon bring 300
more students here.
We are pained to note the fact
that the members of both of the
Literary Societies behaved so badly
last Saturday. We are firmly con
vinced that a reformation should be
