On Thursday the 17th inst
board of visitors will meet in Mil-1
ledgeville for the purpose of or-|
ganizing au-i to make their first
nspection of the college. The
Board eonsisp of eleven distin-
islied ladies, one from each con
gressional district in the State, ap-
lted by the governor in accord |
ance with a special act of the legis-i
lature, passed at the last session. ’
Their duty is to give the school a
borough and critical in-peetion
nice or twice a year and to make a
full report of its work to tlie legis
lature. President Chappell has re
ceived a letter from
will inspect the school with them.
The members of tlie board are:
First district, Mrs. W. W. Gonlou,
Chatham; second district, Mrs. A.
W. Cosby, Dougherty: third dls
trict, Mrs W. H. Felton, Macon;
fourth district, Mrs. W. Y. Atkin

Gray, Oglethorpe; ninth district,
Mrs. A. J. Juliau, Hall; tenth dis
trict, Miss Neppie Hunt, Hancock;
eleventh district, Mrs. L. J. Kmght,
Lowndes.
A Long Felt Want Supplied
There are many gratifying evi
dences that interest in the college
is constantly growing throughout
the State. President Chappell is in
daily receipt of letters of inquiry,
not only from all parts of Georgia,
but from adjoining states. The in
dications are that by the beginning
of another session this school will
be the most popular educational
iustitutiou in Georgia. Although
inaugurated only two months ago
iris already thoroughly organ'
and is doing splendid work in a
departments. It lias pupils from
seventy-one ditTerent counties
the State, and several more will
have representatives hero by the
1st of January.
President Chappell says: “The
crying need of the institution is a
larger dormitory. Our present
dormitory will accommodate only
50 girls. It has been full to its ca
pacity from the opening day, and I
have turned oil applicants by
scores. I am sure if we had room
for them there would be 200 girls
there now. Considerably more than
half of our pupils from a distance
are from necessity boarding in pri
vate families, where they are re
markably wtell taken care of, but
still, on account of being more ex
pensive and for other reasons it is
not so good for them , as living in
the dormitory. Board in the dor
mitory, including tuel, lights and
washing, costs only ten dollars a
month, and the girls are comforta
bly provided for and live weil, and
are perfectly satisfied and lmppy.
For seven or eight thousand dollars
an addition could be made to the
present dormitory that could
commodate at least one hundred
more girls, making 150 boarders in
all With that number the board
could certainly be reduced to eight
or nine dollars a month. Besides
the advantage of economy, better
discipline and better training can
be enforced in the dormitory than
is possible iu private boarding
houses.”
The college will give only one day
and a half holiday at Christmas.
Comparatively few of the young
ladies will go home, and all will be
back to their studies before New-
Year's day.

the argument and render a decision
in accordance with the “law and the
testimony.”
A COMPLETE PROGRAMME,
of the occasion will appear in the
next issue of the Uuion-Recorder.
Suffice it in this prefatory notice to
the public to say, that aside from the
debate there will i>e other features of
equal, if not “superior” attractiveness.
The music will be in charge of the
Musical Club of the city, which is
guarantee enough that it will “catch’,
the popular ear, and please the most
aesthetic taste. It is hoped to have
Mr. Win. Hinspeter, of Macon, aud
Mr. Leo Hafner, of this city, recog
nized artists in their profession, to
assist the Club in furnishing the mu
sic for the debate.
It is the purpose of the committee
in charge to give an entertainment
that will furnish to the good people
of this city of Colleges an evening of
real intellectual and social pleasure,
and we appeal to past efforts for the
warranty that we will carry out that
purpose. But one public debate has
been given by the College students
and of that debate no less authority
than Capt. C. P. Crawford said in
the public prints:
•‘The debate was held, and largely
enjoyed by an auditory, that was in
structed as well. The elaborate re
search shown by the disputants, their
well digested arguments, clothed in
chaste and elegant diction, and de
livered with facile earnestness, was »
revelation truly * * * A most happy
conception of the Faculty, nobly ex
ecuted by the young orators is tlie
common verdict. Let us have more
of such entertainments and we will
have less patronage for the question
able professional.”
No admission will be charged; the
entertainment, will be thoroughly
“Democratic.”
l.et everybody comeand encourage
these young stuileuts of political and
social questions.
Look for programme next week.

A Perfect Bread Raiser
In which to place any kind of
bread, rusk, muffins and buck
wheat, etc., anything that has to
be risen before hatted.
Anyone can mix bread but, few
raise it successfully for want of a
suitable place to put it, consequent
ly they have half risen, indigestible
bread, which brings dyspepsia in its
many forms: as does tlie constant
use of baking powder used iu bis
cuit. This Bread Raiser is so sim
pie that a child can use it with suc
cess. By heat alone is bread raised,
and here is the necessary amount
given, with thermometer to regu
late it, and saves tlie tired house
keeper many steps, running to see
if the dough is too hot or too cold.
Regulate tlie heat, by thermometer
according to given directions and
leave it alone, you cannot fail
Salt rising or milk yeast bread,
which heretofore has been made
wilfi difficulty, raises to perfection
with it. It is also a {date warmer,
and splendid to keep food warm
in case of a late meal or s ckness.
T hey are so durable that they will
last a life time.

It gives me pleasure to recommend Mrs
Mapp's “Perfect Bread Raiser” to every
housekeeper. The bread made with It Is
the most delicli-us and wholesome that 1
Jiave ever keen, and it Is so Blniple and
easily managed that with the most ordi
nary care there is no reason ever to make
a failure in its use. My wife, who had had
no previous experience In bread-making
has. after a single losson from Mrs. Mapp
tried it repeatedly, and always with per
fect success.
To show my appreciation of the appara
tus, I have purchased one for ray own fam
ily and ano- her of extra large size for use
iu the boarding department of our colleg
and I shall also introduce it as a part >
