BOGART HIGH SCHOOL, BOGART, GEORGIA. . M.H. MOORE, - - - Principal, Miss OLIVIA BOND, - - - Assistant. Fall Term Will Begin Monday, July 19th., 1897. COURSE OF INSTRUCTION: The course of study w ill be thorough, practical, and systematic. It is believed to contain enough for business pursuits, and, all that is necessary for a basis on which may be reared a classical education.. Students may choose and pursue"a select course; byt a regnlar, system¬ atic course will be recommended and insisted upon. EXPENSES: * ist Grade, per month, * '* $1.00. 2nd w 4 4 1.25. 3rd “ 4 4 44 1.50. 4U1 44 - (4 - 1.75. Pro rata of public fund will be deducted from above rates. BOARD: * Board in good families, per month, $5.00 to $8.00. DISCIPLINE: The Discipline of the school will be mild and persuasive, but firm and decisive. The strictest surveillance will be held over the moral and intellectual training of the pupils. It is believed that boys and girls should be inspired by lofty motives to govern themselves; that they should be taught to do right, not from fear, but from a serise of duty and honor; to do right, not because they are watched, but because it is right. Thus inspired and taught, they go into the world men and women in all that the words imply; otherwise, they go out as mere machines, unable to control themselves,—slaves to their own appetites and passions. Proper punishment will not be spared when it becomes necessary; but we w ish it emphatically understood that we want no pupil in school who delights in raising disturbances and in doing wrong bc*cause lie thinks he will never be detected in it. LOCATION, ADVANTAGES, ETC. Bogart High School is located in the town of Bogurt, Oconee Coun¬ ty, Georgia, on the S. A. L. R. R., 63 miles east of Atlanta, 10 miles west of Athens, Ga. The school buildjng is comparatively a new one, and in the near future will be arranged to comfortably seat 350 or 300 pupils. There are four Churches—-a Baptist, a Methodist, a Christian, and a Presbyterian—in town; und as good society, Sunday school, etc., as are found anywhere, jjfi » . The Principal ha» had large experience,'and has always met with fair success. His occupation is teaching. His whole time will be given to the school. He is not of that class that follows teaching as a step¬ ping-stone to other occupations. Ilis recent course in Normal instruc¬ tion, received at a College which is pre-eminently a teacher-trainer, will give our school many advantages over Other schools. The Princi¬ pal promises faithful work, but feels that he can do nothing without the co-operation of the people in and around Bogart, which is most re¬ spectfully solicited. Devotedly competent assistance is provided for the Primary and Intermediate Departments. We expect to add a Music Department, this term, to our school., and expect this department to rank with any of other schools. Those who huve to board their children in order to send them to school, cannot do better than to send them to Bogart. All necessary expenses are reasonably low. The location is healthy, the moral and religious influences are good. There is nothing that would tend to draw students from their studies. A liberal putronage is solicited.* For further particulars apply to the Principal. Freeman & Wise Groceries, Dry Goods, Cigars, Tobaccos, Snuffs, -A FULL AND COMPLETE LINE OF HARDWARE.
