I ain glad to see several articles
in your excellent paper lately-
seeking to stir up the jieople or
Cuthliert to a deejicr interest in
the town. No man can fail to see
that there arc many natural ad
vantages jHissessed by- Cuthliert.
She is licaiitiful, for situation,
and one of the healthiest towns
in Georgia. She is soon to iiave
another Railroad crossing here at
right angles, and it will then be
accessible from all arotiud. This
ought at least to start a fresh
hooin in ‘.lie schools here; and
here allow me to say that Cuth
bert will fail to know her day, or
lose what is perhaps her grand
est opportunity that is to make of
herself an educational center—
unless she now rallies to her
schools. There is no reason un
der the sun why Culhbcrt may
not furnish for the parents ami
guardians of South West Georgia
ami South East Alabama, and
Middle and West Florida, just
such educational advantages as
they need for their Imys and
girls, and everything favors its
Announcements.
