These elevate men to places of distinction and profit To him. therefore. who i> anxious for his own success or for the success of his children in life the argument in behalf of a finished and useful education appeals wi h overwhelming force.
 The Camden High School offers capital induce ments to young men who wish to pursue a Classical and Scientific Course. While the design of the in- structors will be at all events to mpart useful knowl edgc they will foster in every student true dignity of behavior and manliness of bearing.
