Dear Editor: Through the medium of your valuable paper I wish to call the attention of the patrons of the Ellaville High School to its claims upon their gen erosity. The question as to what interest every man should feel in having a good school in his own vicinity, his own town needs no argument, for every parent who has the interest of his children at heart knows that the best equipment that can be given them to enable them to cope successfully with the world is an educa tion. The man who is not alive to this press ing demand upon "him and allows his children to grow up in ignorance when lie is able to send them to school is recreant to I lie trust committee to him as a father. But I know of no such pa rents in nor around Ellaville and hence it is not necessary to argue the question. There is another requisite however, no less imperative, and that is a house in which the children may be comfortable, much to the discredit of Ellaville the academy is far from being such a build ing. Repairs are needed, and needed, badly. Whose business is it to make such repairs? Every patron of the school, and every citizen of the town. A live, ^flourishing school in here will more to increase I lie population and thus or ' <j„ n i se business of every charactt r - than any enterprise practicable. Hence every man in the town and vi cinity should feel a personal interest in converl ing the present home school house into tin Academy that is in keeping with the enterprising spirit and taste which now characterize our town. The trustees are willing to do their part, but ought not to he expected to do it all. The work must he done during the two weeks vacation and hence immediate ac tion must lie taken, Our town cannot be excelled anywhere as a site for a flourishing schc ol. A town that has tu> whiskey-shop no disipated young men, no had hoys in it, is hard to find; On the contrary, the society is not to lie ex celled in any town of quadruple inhabi tants. Parents wishing to board their their sons and daughters away from home at school need have no fear that their morals would be corrupted here, while there is not a more healthful sec tion in South-west Georgia. We have all these natural and social advantages, yet we have too much pride to solicit the patronage of non-resident parents so long as we do not prepare a comfortable house for their children. We need ¥250 dollars' and if every man would do bis part the amount could be raised and the change scarcely missed. Dr. C. II. Smith Pres, Board of Trust— ues will call a meeting of all parties in terested either directly or indirectly. The pride that Ellaville and vicinity have, or ought to have, shculd of itself cause every man that can possibly do so, to he present to sec that Ellaville has an Aca-Jemy that will be a credit rather than a disgrace to the enterprising pub lic spirited men within her borders.
