On Monday morning last tbe school
buildings in our town were the scenes of
the happy re-convening of our able
corps of teachers” and the 1 right-faced
y pf children, big and little, who
after their long summer vacation are
glad to get back to the pleasant routine
and competitive interest of the school
room.
Our devoted principal, Prof. Bridges,
was a busy man, and will l»e for some
days to come, examining new pupils,
promoting the fortunate ones, and classi
fying all.
In Mrs. Bridges room about twenty
little six-year-olds came to take their
first wondering peep into the mysteries
of book learning. These with the pupils
from last year give forty-five little ones
to the care of Mrs. Bridges, an arduous
task that would daunt any teacher less
brave and talented.
Two hundred and thirty certificates
were presented the first morning and
each day brings additional pupils.
We understand that the colored school

eyes will be turned to the gradual

Miases Mary Hitch, Lula Knoff, Minnie
Knight, Leila Norton and Masters Joe
Brewer and Will McNeil. They will
bear the honor, in the history of
town, of being the first graduates
earned and won the sheepskin from the
Waycross High School.
Our curriculum being placed higher
than that of many of the colleges and
other high schools through the state,
makes this desti notion to them no empty
honor.

A Directory for Waynan. -
Messrs. Wm. O. Martin and C. H.

that amount, a small sum to realize con

It is with regret that we note a dispo.
sition on the part of our Waycross boys
and girls to “go off” to school. While
we do not believe there are many so-
called colfrge* in Georgia that excel in
thorough organization, instruction and
discipline our Waycross High school,
there seems to be a fascination to the
youthful mind in the idea of going to
boarding school We can only hope
that Waycross will get her share of
boarding pupils from other towns, and
that our city’s good educational name
may not be seriously injured.
