Mr.. Henry opposed the amendment, be-

Mr.. Pritchard's, amendment provid-
ing that no applicant could receive |
tuition unless affidavit is made that |
neither the applicant nor parents are |
aole TO pay tuition, was read by re-
quest.
Mr.. jones Of Wake, did not like Mr.. |
frltchard'5 amendment. It is the gross |

open to all alike. he replied to Mr.. Henry

alone to poor girls, Mr.. Pritchard's
argument is specious and puts badge
Of poverty upon those who enter the
school. I believe that Mr.. Suttoa's
amendment is an insult 10 the girls 8

amendment she is compelled to teach
