NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.
Dallas Female College

with the coming In OF the year lES, we are
prepared, M II sonOol, To announce to the
public Improved conditions Tor lmpartlng
instruction..
Thus lar the measure of success has eX-
cecdcd our largest hopes
Take the following points: Flrst-Therc
uro Ave other established sChoolB IN the city,
and, In addition to these, four FREE schools n,
either carried ON separately, or IN connoc-
ton with other schools SeCOnd-All these
opened from two to four weeks In advance
OF ours, which was delayed until October,
by reason of tho unfinished state OF our
building, Third-DallHs Femme College re-
coived not II dollar OF tho pubic school fund
of the city. FOuTth--All the aforesaid nine
schools receiN young ladies and little girls.
Fitth-At the beginning ottho present term,
this school was restricted to FEM ALEs, thus
excluding the nifty or sixty boys formerly
numbered among lta pupils. Considering all
these adverse influences, We may Justly say
that Dallas Female College hRs done welt to
carry It's roll-call considerably above one
hundred names. Added to this, We venture
that few, even of our patrons, Uro aware OF
the difficulties that have surrounded us,
owing to the unavoidablo necessity OF try
ing ~ teach In house in process OF erection.
The school has been conducted, nom the
very dny OF luz opening until within the
past few weeks, under very great disad.
vhntngos, growing out oftho necessary pres
enoe OF carpenters, plaslorels and painters
40 that, IN simple truth, we have not felt
able to do ourselves, or our pupils, justice.
Now, however, we are glad 10 state that
we are relieved of these draw backs, aud can
assure our patrons that we shall bc prepared
henceioIth to enter upon II new era In the
administration of affairs, and that we pro-
pose to institute II more efficient attention
10 all tho gencrallties and details appertaln-
Ing To our Office, than we have heretofore
been allowed To do, In word, we shall en-
donvor 10 meet all the demands ora well or
derod school. We pledge TO all those who
may favor us with their patronage, bubstan
tial progress In the case oI all diligent pupils.
Give usa trial, and II we tall or relax in our
devotion TO tho best interests Of your daugh-
ters, then viii we willingly surrender all
further claim 10 your patronage. We speak
thus earnestly and asSuringly In tho prsmi-
SEES, because we feel that more favorable con .
ditlons await us after this,
We beg leave to say that we are In Dallas
to devote ourselves TO the best Interests OF
the people; we have identified ourselves
with this school to give II the uuspent eners
giles Of vigorous manhood, and the uuahRt
ed zeal OF our earlier years Aud such is our
confirmed confidence In the success of per-
slstcnt, weil-dirGcted t1OIt, that we make
hOlu TO proclaim n prosperous future for
Dallas Female College, If only its friends
and appointed guardians shall lend us their
Interested, Intelligent coo operation.
