Suppose the Mary Sharp College should
turn out en- masse and visit the great Ex-
position now going on and to continue for
the month at Nashville? The N. G. Rail
road, which gets q good deal of loose
change in transporting students OF the
Mary Sharp to and from home once or
twice a year, would no doubt take 20O
passengersl like these to NashviIl and bring
them back at the rate of One or two dollars
each. They could leave Winchester, say
at A. NJ; get to Nashville at IL Am, stay
five hours and be back at 0 p. NJ. on a
special train. About three cars we think
would carry the precious load of Dolly
Vardens. and what IN advertisement the
trip wOuldbe for the school! We venture
to assert that more beauty. more tho
roughness in scholarship, has never been
carried at once over the rails that lead to
the City of Rocks. Nashville herself could
we'll afford to charter the cars to get the
school there, and would no doubt do so. If
the school went a host of Others would go
p o the regular trains to see MIR. Graves
and his assistants, the clearinghouse
landlords and protectors, marching the
girls into the Exposition buildings. 1t is
a SPLENDID idea! 1t would be a relaxation
to the minds OF the students. The pleas
ure is due them. The encouragement
would give vigor to their exertion. Good
ness! Can't the thing be accomplished?
