For farther particulars send for a catalogue
There are seven reasons why this School com
mends itself to public notice in preference to many
of our popular schools.
Ist. The healthiuiness of the location.
2d. Its freeness tiom ail the vices which tend u>
allure the mind from deep and earnest application to
study.
3d. Tb thoroughness and diligence to which th*
student *• subjected —i eiug tauitht that he has no
timetc waste.
4th. Vocal music is a aily exercise, free of charge
in which the whole school join in the sweet accent*
—which arouses the tired intellect, and restores elas
ticity to the drooping mind
sth. The efforts made to develope the mind by the
use of practical Instruction at the expense of the
impractical.
fith, The deep interest manifested by the Teachers
Trustees, and Citizens, gives it that social and lively
aspect,—so harmonious to the youthful mind—ren
dering the school-house a pleasant resort to the stu
dent instead of a house of dread and haired.
7th. The systematic manner in which the schooli
conducted. “Heaven’s first law” is adopted ami
practiced. A. 6. EDGERL V Principal.
