Ralph Bingham Entertained a Splendid Audience Last Wednesday Night We had with us last Wednesday evening Mr. Bingham, a veteran lecturer anti fun maker. He came as one of the numbers of ihe Lyceum for 1 his season and as the initial number. We are delighted to note that there was not a mo ment during the time he held the rostrum that one could call a dull edsteads, time who faced him in the audience. His recitations we/e up to stand ard excellence and his personations and character sketching were as good as any we have seen and his F. t. U P5att ’ J - r - muaic was very line. There was a ' good audience and nearly every \ member of the Waynesboro Lyceum was present. It is a pleasure to know that our critical and refined foiks have at least found a way to get entertainment from artistic or, if not, least ati'rom sources praeti ed and skilled as entertainers. Mr Bingham came to us after years of work in his line and had often the encomium of larger audiences, but he hardly had a more enthusiastic audience than he faced here. Those who missed Mr. Bingham missed one of the best we have had and a genuine treat. We hope to see him again. §he §jnu §fitisen. WAYNESBORO,GA..

About one hundred and thirty pupils appeared and a fairer array of young people would be difficult to nod. As the opening day wa3 sim ply to do grading, of course recita tions were not expected. The task of grading is not an easy 7 one, nor is it always a rosy one for the children ana teachers. Both suffer disap pointment now and then when an applicant does not rise, but as sys tem and the plan of education are inexorable, one not prepared can not go forward. Parents are dis appointed along with the teachers and the student, but ail must tu quiesce. The gay chatter of the buoyant and hopeful youths w 7 as pleasant to ihe ear. Befo»e them was their fives filled with brightness aud triumphs unlimited; and the tasks that confronted them did not dampen the ardor with which they met the prospects, M*y they not meet with stumbling blocks that wiil deter them; for the joy ot suc cess is proportionate always to the amount of difficulties overcome. At ihe appointed hour the chil dren, to the sound of a march, play ed by Mi=s Philo Sturgea, filed into the iarge auditorium and many parents and other patrons followed. The principal, Prof. McNair, called the house to order and after prayer, he opened with remarks referring briefly to the pleasing appearances of she beginning. He stated how cleligh'ed he was to see so much in terest manifested and added his promise that the scholastic term -houid be filled with work redound ing, he hoped, to the benefit of all Afterwards he requested remarks from those present, and in the order named: Judge Perry 7 , Rev. Mr. Branch, Prof. Carey, School Com missioner Roberts, and Rev, Mr. Cartledge responded briefly. The opening exercises concluded wilh the song America, sang by ! hose present, and afterwards ihe applicants for places in the various grades dispersed to meet in class rooms for examination. Many an excited young heart beat nervously till the ordeal passed, anti then took the fate that awaited them with joy or disappointment. Our school will compare well with any in the state and will not, we are sure, deteriorate under the present management. The corps of teachers are earnest, sincere and painstaking. Tne system adopted will be carried out to the end aud the studious will profit by it. Catalogs have been printed and can be bad by writing to the prin cipal Speaking for ourself the visit to the opening was interesting and gratifying.

Officers and rear seat members of the churches, bucks and buckesses, Demo crats Republicans, and Populists, “Sassiety,” good- for-nothing husbands, Joe Terrell and- others caught the “dickens” there, and got a prophecy of warmer things he said suited us, and as he said it was the hit ini that would be howl ing after he left. We have no remardsto make about what we didn’t like. That gun, Sam,was shoot ing in the hole at ’em,which must have scattered power ful,for we understand there were lots of howling. We hoped he would enlarge up on one subject that he touch ed, but he doesn’t care to, and we were afraid to ask him to, and that was about “merchants skinning peo ple.” He couldn’t stop it though, for when a -fellow gets loaded up with bad credits he has got to “skin” people why pay to make up for those who don’t. That’s why THE CASH CON CERN don’t have to “skin” anybody, because it believes “no man as good as gold” and keeps no books full of “Tickets.” That’s the reas on we can afford to sell goods away below par and still make a decent living.
