SCHOOLS ANE COLLEGES.
In addition to her many other ad
vantages, Sedalia in the vital matter
of education is fully up to the mos
advanced cities of the day.
Her public school system is pro
nounced by all as superior to that o.
any other city of equal size in the
United States. 1t consists of six ele
giant and commOdious school houses,
situated in convenient parts of the
city, for the use of white children,
and very fine building for the colored
portion i'm their locality. All of which
schools are supplied with as able
teachers as money can procure, and
every modern apparatus and appli.
ance used in the most advanced sys.
tenn of teaching.
In addition to these schools there
are the Sedalia University one of the
finest educational institutes in Ameri-
ca, Robbins Business college. which
is universally admitted to be the most
perfect institution of the kind
in the west and which
draws its patronage from
every state in the union.
Browns Telegraph institute in this
branch of education is without an
equal anywhere in the United States,
and is not only among the oldest, but
is by far the best telegraph school in
the west. 1t also enjoys a patronage
from every state in the union.
In the arts there are several schools
in the city. That of Miss Josie
Wright, however, is the principal one
and is counted among the best in
America, some of its graduates hav-
ing attained already a very high
standing in the roll of American ar
fists, and a reputation reaching be-
yond the seas. 1t is also fast gaining
the position of a national institution.
PRIVATE SCHOOLS.
In addition to these schools the Sc
lalia Catholic convent conducts very
inc school, and the German Catholic
church also has an excellent school,
both of which are taught by the Sis
ers of Charity, noted for their ability.
The female seminary of Mrs. r. T.
Miller is also classed among the finest
emale institutes in the west and en-
Oys large patronage from abroad as
veil as at home. There are, in adj
lition to these, a splendid German
chool and four Kinder Garten schools |
nd private colored school, all of
'hich are ably conducted and well
THE SEDALIA BAND.

Omplete without a mention of the Sc
ALA silver cornet band, whose
music can be heard at the
air to-day, and speaks louder in
heir praise to those that hear it than
ny description in cold type. This
and has long been recognized as
adjunct of the city and
ne which every citizen feels proud to
ONT out as an evidence of the taste
nd progressive spirit of her people.
~ long and careful hard practice its
lembers have succeeded in placing
at the head of the profession
nd the Sedalia band as consequence
ands without a superior in the land
nd few equals in accordance with its
and their services are in con-
ant demand for all great gatherings.
