TRIBUNE. VOL II. DEVOTED TO THE INTEREST OF RABUN COUNTY (AND NORTH EAST GEORGIA. uSF co., CLAYTON, KABU1 GA., THURSDAY. OCTOBER 19. 1899. NO. 39. Cornelia Institute. Cornelia, Georgia, Oct. 10. 1899. If space permits, I would like to speak a word commendatory of the Cornelia Institution of learning now flourishing under the capable management of Prof. A. E. Booth and his corps of faithful co-adju- tora. It can easily challenge com parison with any school in the state, aud, if if its youth was taken into consideration, would win lau rels in tne contest The enrollment so far approaches two hundred, and, with pupils coming in daily, the attendance promises to soon surpass that of any previous session ill the brief history of the institu tion. The school building is re plete in every way—a handsome, modern structure not eclipsed in any way by . a school building in Atlanta. Although we know the advanced position Georgia has taken on the permanent subject of the education of her youth and are proudly aware that recently the empire state of union has adopted some of the stud ics embraced in the state normal curriculum, it is nevertheless aston ishing to perceive the, up-to-date ideas prevailing tfl a school bo young, making due all the more credit t.o the young Principal who bus so rapidly infused the fine spir- itof his discipline into liis nseist- ing faculty and pupils. Mr. Booth is an elegant scholar, ripe thinker, a man of affairs and wide experience and a profound and sincere Christian und is sur rounded by a line faculty. The English branches are taught with great thoroughnos and the training school has given ample sat isfaction. many teachers of smaller schools having in the past and present, availed themselves of the instruction it affords as to the ways and means, difficult and new ideas may be best presented to the child’s mind. Physical developement is vigor ously insisted on and exhibitod in a graceful and symmetrical system of calistheuics as entertaining to the visitor ns it is an agreeable and healthful exercise to-the pupil. Twice a month on Friday after noon the .patrons are in attendance at an entertainment where they can see aud gunge the progress made by their words and children. At one, recently, after u physical drill in which a large number of stu dents kept perfect time to the beau tiful music of a march, they were separately called on to give a quo tation from Shakespeare, and it an enjoyable sight with what ;y they Responded, and how theV' repeated the majestic ut of that peorless philoso- who is such a guide and inspi teachers and all they hold reserve for the up-bring- under their cure- girl confidently sienlethmy ptuee tenance, with earnestness exclaimed at this cue—“Who over loved that loved not at first sight.” One child early reflected on the impot ence of power as realized by Cns- seus; ‘‘I can not tell what you *nd other men tbinK of this life, but, Ram’s Horn Blasts. Time is the great teacher. He only gets who gives. Love alone interprets all life. Weal an woe arc the wobb and woof ot life. The sm the sonl loveth, is the for my single self, I had as lief not sin rhe Lord hateth. * not be as live to be in awe of such a thing as I myself.” At what an early ago individually betrays itself and what a grave responsibility is its developement! Coming away wd thought with pleasure ol t he deep moral tra ining underlying the intellectual exercise as exemplified in this half hour’s entertainment and torpeated - with Shakespear’s words, * ‘ Ignorance is the curse of God and knowledge the wing whorewith wc fly to heaven.” A.

Mrs. Howard Gould hns a $1()0,- 000 fan. Albany pavers get $1.85 for eight hours. The true church isoi giving, not a getting institution.* Courage without conscience is little belter than coutordicc. God rewards not thashness, but faithfulness. ^ Only he can truly teach, who himself is teachable.^ Tho most romantic love-trons- nre-expedition, is Christ’s. Suppression of honest investiga tion means retrogression. The law that he who will not work shall not e<it^ applies to churches. You cannot afford to purchase yoqr pleasure at the price of anoth er’s perdition. Faith takes the steps from the creation to the Creator.

Peoplo out of the ark don’t be lieve in floods. Ho who must wait need not wor ry. Not all new books have new thoughts. . Christ never gavo His disciples to understand that they could preach people into heaven. We never read in the Bible of a worldly congregation being called a Christiun church. Jesus bore witness to the truth ; the modern preacher thinks he must “pleuse people.” If you will not invite God into your heart as a friend,’He will not break in as a burglar, * The Hornless Carriage* It doesn’t shy at papers, As they pass along the street, It cuts no silly capers , On tho dashboard with its feet.
