COMMERCIAL CoLLEGE.-We regret
that a larger number was not In at.
tendance at the Commercial College
room Monday evening last, to hear the
review and explanation of the instruc.
ton there impaired, and 1t is to he re,
gretted that our citizens and the farm
srs throughout this portion of the State
10 not more thoroughly acquaint them,
selves with this Institution. The ties.
timony of those who have and are re.
sewing instruction at this school, TO
lative to Its efficiency, Is SO complete
and satisfactory that II all could hear
Il. the idea would very soon be dis.
missed that our young people must &c
,ff to some larger city In order to re.
,eive commercial education. Ifspace
allowed, we would speak at length re-
lative to the deficiency In educational
interests, so apparent In this portion Of
The State. 1t Is true, our public schools
are good, but those wishing to 70
farther than our public schools will
take them, must go abroad. Why can
rot our Commercial College be equal to
Of the kind In the west, and
why can we not have an institution al
Cedar Falls similar aud equal to those
It Iowa City, Mt. Vernon and other
points? The effects of these institu.
ions upon our people, in q business
point Of view, a. well a. morally and
intellectually, would soon be seen and
teIt, rs 1t is now where these institu.
ions exist.
Fire Company and Engine.
We print In this issue call signed
by many Of our citizens for : meeting
1t Council Hall, on Monday evening,
I'D inst, for the purpose Of organizing
! fire company
This is move In the right direction
md will certainly mot prove an entire
allure as did the one appointed for
Wednesday evening. The necessity
|or q fire organization In our town
must be % apparent to all that no good
,itisen will neglect this call. IL any
ID needed In fayoro Of . prof.
,ct Of this kind, we are mistaken in
our opinion relative to the enterprise
