The importance of such a work must be at once obvi¬ ous. If there is anything of which the citizens of Bulloch county can justiyfeelproud.it is tiie Excel¬ sior High School. We see on every hand evidences of the vast good it is accomplishing. It is preparing young men aud young ladies in a thorough and efficient manner, for the stern realities of life. What work is nobler? What mission higher? The closing of the first month of the present year last Friday was watched by the pupils and patrons with marked interest. The following pupils were on the roll of honor: Willi 0 Deekle, Miss Annie Darsey, John Everett, Jodie L. Duncan, Oscar J. Franklin, J. A. Jones, Willie B. Jones and J imps B. Olliff. Rev. (’. H.
