aid promise all who attend a lot cf
fun. Tms company has a quartette
that is rarely excelled, and lovers of
music will enjoy the entertainment
Sartln Institute.
The faculty of onr school for the
ensuing year is now fully arranged,
ju.tl the new catalogue will be mailed
to any who may request it.
Prof. Ernest Neal will have charge
of the Latin, Greek, and English lit
erature; Prof. J. E. Richetson will
teach Mathematics, History, and
Natural Philosophy; Mrs. Ernest
Neal will be in charge of the Prepara
tory Department; Miss Moseley will
be teacher of Music; and Miss Means
Instructor in Elocution.
It is not the province of this school
to teach merely the elementary
branches. We have a very extended
curriculum, and students completing
the regular course are entitled to the
A. B. degree. But while this is the
case, our common school department
will not be undervalued. Parents
may enter very youEg children here,
resting assured that they will be
carefully and properly taught.
We hold that to read the English
language well, that is, with intelli
gence, feeling, spirit, and effect—to
write with dispatch, a neat, legible
hand, and to be master of the four
rules of arithmetic, so as to dispose
at once with accuracy of every ques
tion of figures which comes up in
practical life —we call this a good ed
ucation; and if you add the ability
to write gramatical English, we re
gard it as an excellent education.
They are the foundations. Without
these all your fiashy attainments, a
little natural philosophy, a little
physiology, and a little geology, and
all your other ologies or osophies,are
but ostentatious rubbish.
It may seem to some that our
curriculum is too extensive, but it is
not. With faithful and competent
teachers and willing and hearty
learners, all the blanches put down
in our catalogue can be attended to
in the time allotted.
Our rates of tuition are—for com
mon school students, $1.50; for high
school and college, $2; pro rata of
public school fund will be deducted
from these rates.
Board can be obtained with the
president at $8 per. month, or with
other good families at same price.
We are inaugurating the dorma
tory system this term. Several good
cottages near the college are for the
use of students who may desire to
furnish their own supplies and do
their own cooking, thus reducing
the cost of living. Near the college,
too, are good families that will fur
nish rooms to students at very rea
sonable prices.
Scattered throughout the country
are noble men and women who were
students of Martin Institute. To
many it afforded the only preparation
for life. To many it has made the
infinite difference between a mind
enlightened and one bowed down in
ignorance. To you I say there is
life in the old school yet. Send
your children to quaff knowledge at
the same old fountain where their
mothers and fathers drank in eter
nal truth. Treasure in memory the
good old days that were, but don’t
mourn their loss. While we retro
spect, let us progress.

day have a happy reunion in heaven.
