FOR THE TEACHERS.
OommFulowr Urotlffril'R Inslruriitmi fur
Holding Canary Instltutih.
Captain S. D. Brad well, state school
commissioner, has issued a circular
letter to all the comity school com
missioners in ths state, instructing
them with reference to holding the
teachers’ institutes this summer.
The monthly, or Saturday institutes
have been abolished, there having
been a law passed by tho last general
assembly changing the system of hold-
mg these institutes for the improve
ment of teachers so as to have only
annual sessions.
The time for holding the annual
institutes m the counties this yean as
fixed by the law is within the period
of June, July and August. Tim state
school commissioner has the right to
change the time if he sees fit, but he
says in his late circular letter that he
does not see lit to make any change
unless in some particular instance it
may be deemed advisable by the lo
cal school commissioner.
The state comniissHOiior says he will
be glad to co-operate with any of the
county commissioners who may desire
to combine several counties in bold
ing a united teachers institute. The
law requires that there shall be an
expert selected t.o aid in conducting
the county institutes, and that he shall
he paid 625, for the five day’s work.
The commissioner will bo glad to fur
nish to the county commissioners who
may desire it a full list of experts who
are willing to serve in this capacity.
The expert, however does not have
control of thu work, lie is under the
county school commissioner who is
the one to preside at all the sessions
of the institute.
The white and colored institutes
are to be conducted at the same time
and place, though the law requires
that they shall he in different halls
and apartments. The expert is .in
quired to give the same course of
training to the colored teachers as to
the white.
There will be no lVabody institutes
in Georgia this year, the slate legisla
ture having refused to grant any state
aid lo the Peabody fund and ihe
managers of that fund having decided
on this score not to spend any money
in Georgia in this way until Ihe slate
is willing lo meet them on half-way
ground.
Kverv teacher in the state is re
quired by law to attend the institutes.
If the time fixed for holding tin- one
in his own county falls on him, while
his school is still in session, ho must
suspend school long enough to ntten
it, and then make good the time lost
in teaching after it is over.

RETROSPECTIVE.
Just three years ago we opened for business in Tifton, Since then the
hand of Time has wrought many changes in the business world. Hundreds
of establishments, which seem to flourish at that time, have gone dowN and
exist no more. At the same time many business men have reason to look
upon the past three years as successful ones. The question naturally arises
“Why this? What made so many fail while a few flourished t 1 ” The an
swer comes easy. It was a trial of merit. The old sock-it-to-’em-favor-
me-with-your-trade-and-l-will-favor-you-with-tjine merchants went down,
while the wide awake merchants who underbought and had the nerve to
undersell, succeeded.
Times were hard when we threw open our doors to the public. Tho
merchants complained of dull times, and that business was overdone. We
were advised not to risk our time and capital in this small town. With
confidence in our facilities to underbuy,
AND A FIRM DETERMINATION TO UNDERSELL,
Wo opened in a little room 25x60 feet. From the first day on our bouse
has been crowded with an appreciative public who for years had suffered
the extortions of tho credit system.—The cash buyers and those who had
always paid their store accounts, began to realize that they had been made
to pay the losses their merchants sustained by reason of the credit system.
Everybody saw the astonishing difference in prices, and our goods
kept moving ns fast as we could get them.
The howling of our competitors; their cries of Trash and Shoddy
goods, fell on deaf ears. The people had been oppressed too long, saw
their deliverance from the ruinous credit system, and were not slow in
catching on.
Oftentimes we had to do without a meal on account of the rush, and
oftener customers had to leave before being waited on, and as we now look
hack, at the close of our third year, wo feel our time has been filled up
with usefulness, and wo have hundreds of appreciative customers who ac
knowledge our plan has saved them money.
By running up our sales and averaging the difference i*i prices, we es
timate a saving of $10,250 to the community, as a result of our labor for
the past throe years. (f,* 'Ton Thousand Two Hundred and Fifty Dollars
saved to our patrons.
We feel proud of our record, and propose to double our efforts to hnng
goods down to the lowest possible prices. Oe.r facilities for buying goods
are better than ever before.
Our selling system enables us to cut the margin close, and our deter
mination to undersell any house in this section is only equaled by our en
thusiasm lo break all past records.
I'*}?'Three years ago our floor space was 1,26(1 feet.
[ ^‘'To-day our stock covers over 6,0(10 feet and no spare room.
We attribute our success to buying close and selling at, small profit.
Our stock is decidedly the largest, in this section, selected with care,
lllld the greatest, values yet offered the public.
Dry Goods,
brorrrlcH, Trunks,
nothing. Ilardwar^arpets,
Notions, Tinware, Matting, Shoes,
Furniture. Rugs, Millinery, Sewing
Machines, Drugs, Hals, Taps,
Glassware, Saddles, Har

Each line is extensive. Wo can sell yon almost anything you want,
(bit; of our new customers, after going through our different department*
and buying wlml lie wanted, thought lie would ask for soniutliiiig we did
not hove, so he called for a “Snake.” We sold him a snake, too. If lie
had called for old, shelf-worn goods--which of course In* did not want—
lie would have had us, as we have goods coining daily lo replenish our
stock, consequently our goods never stay with ns.
