Editor* Enterprise: 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. :Q:- In vifew of hard times, and scarcity oi money, we have reduced the prices on all our Goods, and from this date until fur ther notice, we will sell as follows.

I dare say that the two colleges hers are now olticcicd witli just the men and women to make successes of them, anil if the people of Cuthliert fail to rally to her schools now, they will lose their greatest opportunity. It is iny humble opinion that if our schools do not succeed under the presidents they now iiave, they will go down to rise no more, and there is nothing in the way of success and a bright futurs for our schools but an indiff-rcuce upon the part of some, at least, of our citizens.
