compulsory. Attendance on the
worship of God must needs be a
voluntary act, yet each student is
enjoined to attend, and take part.
The high moral character of our
pupils is beautifully attested by
their promptness in respect to the
morning chapel. Here also are
announced all matters of interest
or Importance to the school. After
announcement in chapel any order
is considered published and all
students are alike bound by it's
conditions, whether heard by all
or not. Such regulations assist in
attracting attendance at the chapel
exercise. We earnestly invite the
people of Audubon to make it a
point to attend these morning de-
votionals, for it will encourage
our students and encourage the
School.
Regular rhetorical drills are con-
Quoted under two plans. First;
The students have organized a lit
erary society under the name of
"The Alpha Society of the A. N.
c." whose aim is improvement in
literary work. Regularly differed
and maintaining regular programs,
under the direction of members of
the Faculty, the work in the socie-
ty has been most pleasing and
beneficial. The second plan for
literary work is the rhetorical divis-
ion, composed of all students of
various college departments, not
members of the Society. The
management is thoroughly awake
to the demand that young men
and women who profess to have an
education be able to speak to audi
ences upon any topic and at mo-
ment's notice. Freedom in speak
ing, self-possession and confidence
when before an audience is a stamp
of nobility and culture. 1t is the
desire of the school to render every
student a ready and effective speak
er.
We wish to call your attention
to the fact that in every depart
ment of the College ample prepare
ton has been made for the most
thorough and comprehensive work.
None but the best of aids in charts,
specimens, globes, reference books,
and fixtures are used, and all that
is needed is used both by the in
structor in explanation and by the
pupil in demonstration. We use
and teach to use all sorts of appa-
ratus for school purposes; the re-
suit of the recognition of the need
of the pupil-that he be able to
give both abstract and concrete
| proof of statement and phenome-
/ non.
THE BOARDING HALL is provid-
ed for the benefit of the students.
The rooms are plainly and neatly
furnished, warm, light and COM
Portable; No Bare Floors or Damp
Walls. The board is good. While
our rates are not quite as low as
some FEW schools, we do DEMAND
that STUDENTS need GOOD, WHOLE
SOME FOOD and a sUFFICIRNoY OF
IT. The greatest Of care is taken
that the Boarding Hall be as quiet
and homelike as private residence
and the table be spread with good
wholesome food, and that variety
be had suitable to individual taste
and physical need,
Patrons! We believe your boys
and girls are under as kind and
watchful care as will or CAN be
afforded them at private dwelling
and our rates are certainly as low
Board and furnished room at 1925
per week; students furnish fuel
and light only. We believe the
Boarding Hall deserves your COM
mendation,
Ii alone remains to speak of the
work of the year, both past and
future. 1t is with PRIDE that the
management looks back over brief
history of the A. N. c. Sixteen
short weeks number it days and
what gladdening results have been
attained! Many of the best young
men and women Of any land have
come to US for instruction. Our
students are not all residents of
! Audubon county. Perhaps one
fifth of them come from the sister
counties, and few from beyond
our state. Some have come and Sc
/ soon are gone, but none have left
at their own or our desire. Provi-
dental hinderances ALONE have
caused our severed relations. II
has been In EVERY CASE with re-
greet that the relation of instructor
and student has been broken. Il
it to be wondered that, such hGins
the feeling and attitn.1d.e of our pu,
pills we are proud of our college
10 you wonder that we receive the
kindest of words from our pupils
Is not this the browning require
ment for GRAND success? Are yor
interested in our work? Do you
