College, and wife were guests of
the Star Saturday night. As was
announced in our last, Prof. Wilson
lectured to our people at the pub
lie school building Saturday even
ing. The audience was not large,
yet the enterprising young ladies
aud gentlemen of oar town v ere
tairiy represented. Prof. Wilson
spoke for an hour, urging the i'm
portance of commercial training,
and setting forth the advantages
afforded by his business training
school. He made many forcible
points why young men aud young
women should endeayor to obtain
a practical business education. He
is very much encouraged with the
present bright prospects of build
ing "a good school at Eureka
Springs. Prof Wilson is only %
years of age and certainly deserves
encouragement in his undertak
ing We would advise young men
and young ladies who are desirous
of obtaining business education
and all should be-to investigate
the advantages of this school and
it they find it worthy, as we think
they will, patronize it for it is a
home institution.

day, Prof. Hanna is a partner of
Prof. Z. T.. Cox of Little Rock, who
is agent for the American Book
Company School Charts for Ar
kansas We were shown one Of
the charts which we mast say in our
judgement, is the finest thing in
the way of a school chart we have
yet seen. No district school i'm the
State could afford to set along with
out them at twice their cost. They
have been recommended by State
Sup't Sbinn to the schools of this
State. A local agent will visit all
the school boards OF the county. A
sample may soon be seen by calling
at this Office.
