School Opened Monday.
Prof. \Y\ D. Well?, the newly
elected principal of the Ade! In-
flt itut**, arrived here last Thurs¬
day and met immediately with
the school board and arranged for
the opening of the fall term on
Monday last. There load been
tiome slight talk of postponing
opening date for a week and we
did not get any definite announce
meat in time for our last week’s
issue, although vre endeavored to
do so.
Mr. Wells busied himself Fri-
day and Saturday in getting ac-
quaiuted with the people here,
and opened school Monday with
a n attendance of forty pupils. A
good deal of interest, is manifest-
ed in tlie school and the outlook
is that the attendance will be
largely increased right speedily.
Mr. Welle is a graduate «.f the
State Normal College and was
last week granted ;>ermanent
state license by State School
Commissioner Glenn. His work
has been at Cecil for the past two
years and his reputation as an ed¬
ucator lias spread abroad over the
country. He is intensely in ear¬
nest in bis work and the term
just begun bids fair to fill a long
felt need in the school situation
here.
Assistants will be added to the
school as the patronage warrants
and every effort is being put forth
to place the school on nigh ground.
We will be glad to see this de¬
termination to make the school
equal l.o the very best carried to
a buccestful termination.

I have mailed to the clerks of
the churches comprising our asso¬
ciation blank forms for tlieii*
statistical reports to the associa¬
tion, and if all the churches will
use this form, filling all the
blanks where data is at hand for
so doing, the association will ob¬
tain much desirable information
not had heretofore, The two
items, “church property” and
“pastor’s salary” should not be
overlooked, and the Sunday
school should be reported on back
of letter. The association con¬
venes with Cairo church Tuesday
after the second Sunday in Oc¬
tober, and if your delegates find
it impossible to attend mail your
church letter to Cairo, Ga., ad¬
dressed to the clerk of the asso¬
ciation, so that it may be secured
and noted in minutes. Yours
truly.
