Dalton is everywhere recognized .as a town far above the average of such sized towns in the culture and refinement of its people. Every one knowing the people of the town, recognizes the superior, intellectual and moral development of its women. When we realize that over one hun dred of her prominent women are Alumna' of the Dalton Female Col lege, we can but believe that part of the credit is justly due to that insti tution. People are led to make this town their home because of the excellence and cheapness of its markets, the beauty of the town, its intellectual atmosphere, coupled with the ex cellent school advantages. These people are the kind whom we are glad to welcome as citizens. For these reasons every one in the town should be concerned about the success of the college, and should be working for it. There is however a materialistic side of this question. During the past year there has never been less than a family of sixteen at the col lege. Outside the college building seventeen persons have lived here for the privileges of the school. These thirty-three were fed and clothed be sides what other money they spent here. Parents coming to see their daughters made purchases hero rather than elsewhere. Putting the cost of living at $1(X) per head which was far below the actual cost of living; of at least 28 of this number, over |3,000 came into the hands of the business men of the town. Besides this, eight teachers spent the principal portion of their salary here. Every business man ought to be concerned about the growth of the college. Every person in the town has some influence upon those living away from here. They know of girls who ought to be in the college, many of whom might be, if they used their influence to bring them here. If the people of the town would use their influence to build up the Boarding Department, we should have more than we can accommodate this com ing year. Mabel Head, Pros.
