The ColumVda is still the Gem f >f jblte Ocean. The value of a teacher cannot fre estimated in dollars and cents. For fifty one years America has jield the cup. If Capt. B&rr keeps jiis health, she will continue hold it. Recently »oi»e one has , been brutal as to poison many of /dogs in Jesup. To say the least jt, it is an inhuman act in any to take advantage of poor dum Ptmaturea by giving them which contains poison. The singing convention held Midway Baptist Church the Sunday in September proved to £h© most successful session held iu Wayne County. All were highly entertained by glasses, who came from sections of the county. A gumptious dinner was sprend the people of the community were descrying of all the nice gaid about them for the royal manner in which they entertained the visitors. The contest, for place among the classes, was (contested for, and the leaders the several classes may, justly feel proud of their class. The Jesup School. The Jesup Public School is paw offering to Wayne and sur grounding counties a course of pmdy hardly equaled and certain¬ ly not surpassed by any other school in South East Georgia. The Tfqstpes shoulu congratulate them pelves ou being ■«> fortunate in securing the services of snub an able corps of teachers. No better falent could have beeu employed vvibh the funds of so small a place tjg Jpsup can command. In addition to showing interest in the children of the town by * careful selection of teachers, the Trustees have demonstrated their Spirit of enterprise by raising an puique gum of money for the f pection of a handsome, up-to-date Prick building with modern equip¬ ments. which will greatly facil¬ itate the work. This building is now in course of erection. In tbo mean time the teachers are conducting the work in a first class manner, in the old building. Prof. J. N. Peacock, an A. B. graduate of Emory College, whose devotion to his chosen profession —that of the ministry as well as teaching,—is touchingly beauti¬ ful, and peculiarly fits him for the position he now holds- Principal of the school. He is not only inter gated in the school as a whole but pach individual a'ready feels that jn him, though young, they have a fatherly friend and counselor. One who feels the awful reeponsi biltty of having voluntarily as¬ sumed the position of moulding character and in a measure shap¬ ing the destinies of those placed under his care. How vastly important it is that the youths of our country should be nurtured by Christian influence! Therefore we feel that the ful, exemplary life of Prof. cock will wield an influence good upon his pupils which last long after he has gone to der his accountability to God his stewardship. Prof. Jphnson was educated the Peabody Normal College. who make any pretentions to education know it to be the pf schools for t{ie preparation teachers. vv hile Mr. Johnson is a minister, his life is a bright ample of quiet unassuming tility and Christian worth, able. Miss Lillian Nichols is an A. B. and 0. B. graduate of Andrew Female College. She comes to us highly recommended and her sweet winning ways and judicious school management have already won the highest admiration from her pupils and acquaintances. Her influence in the school room, church, Ep worth League and entire commu¬ nity is invaluable and we heartily welcome her among us. She will give lessons in elocution. Miss Lila Cain was educated at the North Georgia College—the lirst branch of the State University. She holds a per¬ manent License from the State School Commissioner. Site also had the advantage of a of training in the State Normal ^ {o ^ . g a rich experience in teaching in all different grades. Having nine successful years in her town is an evidence of her in this line of work. The little men and women her direction have already begun a systematic study of plants animals, paper folding and ting, free hand drawing, und the near future will begin modeling and the study of etrical forms by means of also the use of a needle by of sewing cards. She is lessons in art. Miss Laura Wilder is lesson* in music. She lias had advantage of teachers from abroad and tho continual growth of class is sufficient proof that work is highly gratifying. She is a young lady of sterling worth and quite an addition to any commu¬ nity.—A Citizen IN MEMORIAM. William mckinley. London Truth, Sept. 19. < As a grest wave that, checked in its advance, , , Recoils awhile beyond the breakers roar, And then, the mightier for its first mischance, 4 In ampler volumes surges on the shore. So with our grief it is: the waves of woe That rose and swelled and then re¬ sought its source, Returns ugaiu with iv restless flow In deeper, fuller, more o’erwhehu ing force. In that the clouded sky had grown more bright As Hope diffused its ever-welcome ray, So much the blacker is the sudden night That, swiftly falling, has eclipsed the day. We’d ceased to think about the foe with dread— Had not the sentries passed the word, “All’s well!” Yet, ere the echo of their shout sped, Death’s flag is flying o’er the a del! j,low j g crushing: words are hard to find: From the true mourner halting phrases come Which aptly voice the anguish of the mind: Sorrow is never deeper than when dumb. Yet weak and feeble though our dirge may be Compnaed with those embittered tears we shed, We must assure our kinsmen o’er the sea How we unite with them to their dead. RENT. Store room for rent.
