REMARKS.
AS the most of our pupils do not
expect to attend any other school,
the course of instruction is made
liberal and thorough, so as to fit
them for the practical duties of life.
Our Classical Course is adapted
to fit boys to enter with credit the
Intermediate or Senior classes in
college or the university.
Special attention is given to the
study of the English language
throughout the whole course. Pu-
pills will have constant practice in
the analysis of difficult sentences
and idiomatic expressions and in
punctuation. Too much attention
cannot be given to this part of an
English education.
1t is our purpose to make our
English course full and comprehen-
sive enough to meet the wants of
those who desire thorough English
education, but who have not the
time or means to complete a course
in Latin and Greek. Those expect
ing to teach will find this course
well adapted to their needs.
BUSINESS COURSE.
We expect to employ a competent
teacher, who is a graduate of East
mans Business College, to take
charge of this department.
For boys who expect to engage in
commercial pursuits, this course is
1t will also be of great
to beginners learning to
write.
The course will be so arranged
that boys can complete it in two
years without interfering with their
regular studies. Special arrange
ments will be made for those who
wish to take the Business Course
alone, by which it can be completed
in few months.
LECTURE COURSE.
The attention of patrons is invi-
ted to the following NEW FEATURE in
our school. Arrangements have
been made for a course of plain,
brief and practical lectures, instruct
ing boys in regard to the various
duties, which, as citizens, they may
be called upon to fulfil, such as du-
ties of jurors, grand jurors, county
officers, administrators, trustees, dc
The following eminent lawyers of
Pulaski have kindly consented to
deliver these lectures: Judge t. M.

DISCIPLINE.
The discipline win be strict, yet |
with kindness. The |
rules will be few and simple, and
will be based upon those principles
that tend to develop high estimate
Of honor. We strive to educate our
pupils morally, as well as inteilecJu-
ally. We will endeavor at all times
to inculcate the principles of good
behavior and sound morality by ex-
ample, as well as by precept.
Harsh measures will be resorted to
With reluctance, but boys who will
lot submit to proper restraints, and
Who make themselves injurious to
heir fellows by habits Of idleness
n viciousness will be quietly dis
missed.
