Mr.. EDITOR: Knowing you to be friend
of education, will ask permission to speak
few words through the columns of your
valuable paper about the prospects for edu-
cational facilities at this place. The stock
holders of Big Valley Academy, located at
this place, have leased the building for 25
years to the trustees of the Knoxville Dis
trict High School of the NJ. E. Church,
South, said lessees binding themselves TO
run school al least eight months in the
year. The property is substantial frame
building, 25 by 20 feet, and two stories
high, the upper story being owned and con-
trolled by Valley Lodge, No. 1888, F. & A.
NJ. The trustees of the school design to
improve the property by charging the
grounds, inclosing it, building dormitories,
&c, for which purpose they are selling GER
tifcates of new stock, the proceeds of which
are to be used in making the improvements
named, and for purchasing school apparatus,
&c. Rev. II. P. Daley, of Virginia, is
agent for the selling of stock, and is meet
ing with fattering success. Mr.. Bailey,
who is graduate of Vanderbilt University,
and who is a gentleman of fine learning, is
also employed as principal of the school for
the next term.
string to attend school, could not, perhaps,
find greater facilities than are offered here
for the same amount of cost Board can be
had cheap, and tuition is reasonably low.
The school is nicely situated in healthy
locality, and when the contemplated i'm
provements are completed, will be very
desirable place. The morals of the cOmmu-
nifty will, [ suppose, at least come up the
average.
Although this school is under the direc-
ton of a particular denomination, yet it is
not In the least sectarian and people of all
denominations in the community are engag-
ed in its support and encouragement.

Gen. J. H. Stibbs and family are located
here for some months. The general is in
vestigating claims tor property taken by the
Federal army. He is very pleasant gen.
tleman.
J. G. Scruggs, who has been engaged in
selling goods here for some years, is pre-
pairing to move to Careyville, where he ex-
poets to engage in business with E. S. Hol-
ingsworth. We regret to lose so good citi-
zen, but hope he will do well in his new
place.
Permit me to say in conclusion, that the

Our National Wealth.

The total valuation of the national
wealth of this country, as compared with
that Of other nations, as given By I. NJ.
Coan in a recent number of "Hsrpers'
Magazine" is as follows: We stand near
the head of the list-thrd on the list of all
the Western nations The United Kingdom
of Great Britain and Ireland heads the list
400 600 001. then comes France with
with ss1,o(Oooo, CO. Germany with
So. 900 0J0,00O Russia with SIG 600 0Co
and the lower countries with $ll 1901 0 of
capital cole ctively. These are the vAlua>
tions made by those countries of their en-
tire resources. What is the average annual
income per inhabitsnt in various countries?
We come to the front in this comparison.
The average annual income in the United
Kingdom is Sl65, in the United States S165
also, in the Low Countries $50. in France
Sl25, in the British Colonies $50 in Ger.
many and also in Scandinavia $85. In
this reckoning Russia, with her
ninety millions of people, is out of
sight as yet; she will not be very
long. On the score Of an snnua |
accumulation our case is even better, rela-
lively far better. The annual accumula>
tlon of wea tn in Germany is 500. QUO. 600 ;
it is 1926, 600 900 in the United Kingdom
6,O0.OO0 in France; in the United
States it is $3.50 OOOl Our increase sf
national wealth since 1850, says coed
English authority, would ba enough 10
"purch ase the whole Germa D Emp re, with
its farms, cities, banks. shipping, manutsc-
tor es, sc. The annual accumulation has
been 1926, 0OO coo, and therefore each de-
cade adds more to the wealth of the U nited
States than the capital value of Italy or
Spain. Everv day that the sun rises upon
the American people, it sees an addition of
s., 800 900 to the wealth of the Republic. !"
