Principal Walker Gives a Concise
Statement of What They Are
Doing Training Young People.
Comparatively few residents of
the Fifth Congressional District out
side of our immediate vicinity have
Env accurate conception of the equ.p
ment of the Fifth District School,
faceted at Monroe, nor the splendid
work it is doing for the hoys and
nrls who make up its student body.
No district school in the state has
been more productive of results and
none has a brighter outlook for the
future. Gwinnett county is now
connected with this school and a
number of her boys and girls are at
tending this institution. The prin
cipal of this school, Prof. J- Henry
Walker, ha s recently sent out a let
ter to the people of the district that
gives such a clear and concrete out
line of the institution’s equipment
and its forward efforts that we are
giving it below in full .

T,d the Patrons and Friends of ne
School : , .
Ti.e Fifth District A. & M. School
is better prepared than at any pre
vious time in it, history to take care
of the students intrusted to its care.
You will be interested in several
distinctive features of the school.
We have this year three teachers
of domestic science and home eco
noirics They are graduates of the
be.it schools in the state, and each
one is qualified and capable of head
ing a department of domestic
science. Miss Josephine Jordan, a
graduate of G. V. & I. C., is at the
head of the sewing department.
Miss Frances Colquitt, a graduate of
the State Normal School, has charge
of the cooking and domestic science
department. Miss Lillie Brown, a
graduate of the State Normal School,
has charge of the teacher train.ng
apd the preparation of meals in the
school kitchen. All the work in the
kitchen and dining hall and in the
steam laundry is done under the
supervision of these teachers.
The boys also have the best pos
sible training, as they are under the
charge of three industrial teachers.
Mr. C. T. Clotfelter, a graduate of
Peabody Normal School, is teacher
of agriculture and horticulture. Mr.
Troy Edwards, B. S. A. of the State
College of Agriculture, teaches ani
mal husbandry’ and farm manage
ment Mr. L. C. Hart, graduate of
the Tech, has charge of shop and
repair work and also drawing.
It will be seen from the above
that we have six industrial teachers
in the school who give their entire
time to this work. All the work
dona by the boys and girls at. the
school is done under the direction of
scientific teachers.
This is a regular four years high
school, fully accredited, and in Class
1. We give the regular high school
course in history, mathematics,
science and English. Each depart
ment is headed by a graduate of one
of the best colleges in the south.

Washington, April 12. —Dr. E. O.
Watson, statistican of the Federal
Council of Churches, has made pub
lic seme startling statistics regard
ing the growth of churches in the
United States, which seem definitely
to refute the often-made statement
that the church is losing its grip
upon modern civilization.
According to these figures, 3,345
people upon an average join a Chris
tian church in this country every
day of the year, forty-two ministers
are ordained every day in the year,
and twenty-six new congregations
ara formed every day in the year.
The membership of all religious
bodies is 47,461,558. There was a
gain of 9,591 congregations and
15,252 ministers in the year. The
total number of congregations is
now 243,590, led by 214,583 minis
ters.
Statistics for the broad divisions
among religions show that there are
78,113,481 Protestants, 18,104,804
Roman Catholics, 1,600,000 Jews,
