Words of Praise From a Student. Editor Chronicle: Allow me space in your paper to say a few words about the Georgia Normal College and Business Insti tute of Abbeville. For the past ten weeks I have been under Prof. Little’s tutorship and I know the advantages he is offering to our young men and women, and I know what they are missiug if they fail to attend this school. Young man, if you ever expect to do anything worthy of notice; if you ever expect to be any thing worthy of existence, you can’t neglect the opportunity that is now at your door—of attending a first class, up-to-date school, right at home. If you want a business edu cation— come to Abbeville. It you want to prepare yourself to teach— come to Abbeville. In fact, if you want to make a man of yourself, worthy the name—come to the Geor gia Normal College and Business Institute and go to work, and I guarantee you success. I have nothing to say against any school in Georgia but I do say we have the equal of any of them in Abbeville. I will say to the people of Abbe ville, by way of encouragement, if you loose the court house, you have in this school something worth a hundred court houses; if we had more such schools as the Georgia Normal College, court houses would not be so much in demand. Boys and girls, parents, wake up. Knowledge is power. You are re quired to do something, to be some thing. Y T ou must prepare yourself iu order to do or be that something. 1 have but one regret on leaving school, and that Is that T. can’t stay longer. May the efforts of Prof. Little and the other able teachers of this school be crowned with the suc cess they so justly deserve. Willard Windham.
