A good Institute is a necessity. We
have tried to meet the demand. We
have good strong corps Of instruct
ors. We expect good attendance Of
teachers. We expect good attend
ance Of the patrons of our soheols. In
fact we expect to have good Insti-
tute. The Institute is justly regarded
as the index to the educational stand
ing and standard of the county. An
enthusiastic institute will attract edu-
cational talent to our county and
instead of there being a scarcity of
teachers in our county We will have
more than enough to supply the de-
mand. Yet everyone in the county
should help the Institute along toward
success. Those who can possibly.
should attend should make it their
business to attend at least a part Of
the week.
On Monday and Tuesday evenings
no admission fee will be charged. All
are invited to come. Let the court
room be filed Remember ali the
children will be admitted free at all
the evening entertainments. Parents,
, bring your children out; it will do
them good. We all want an advance
