to open summer schools in other
counties. II is safe to say that such
teachers will find il difficult to get
schools in Claiborne hereafter.
The graded school of Port Gibson,
under the efficient management OF
Prof. J. M. Taylor, closed on the
I'd inst, after the most successful
year In the history of this school.
Prot. Taylor goes Immediately to

his chosen calling. His course is
recommended to all who wish to be
TEACHERS.
SUMNER E0RMALe.
The Peabody Summer Normal at
Lake will begin June IL, instead OF
June 10, as announced in the circu-
lars sent out by DR.. Baily at first.
Those who wish to attend would do
we'll to note the change.
The Normal at Oxford begins
June 10.
These two review schools offer su-
perior advantages TO progressive
teachers.
At Oxford special courses will be
offered at nominal cost TO those
who wish to prepare for profession
al licenses.
Teachers who wish TO keep up
with the times should attend one OF
these summer schools. Both schools
have strong faculties.
Trustees Of school districts should
insist that their teachers attend.
Those who believe enough in them
selves to invest SOME money every
year to better their teaching power,
are the ones who should be employ
ed to teach our children.-Clarion-
Ledger.
Teachers from Claiborne will at
tend the Oxford Normal, owing 10
the fact that our schools will not
close earlier than the oath.
On the whole, it will be more adj
vantageous for them to 60 TO Ok
ford. They will be under the tute-
lage of chancellor Payne, of Nash

finest instructors in the United
States they will have the use of a
fine laboratory they will be at no
more expense, and they will meet a
more efficient corps of noted edu-
Gators. Teachers, avail yourselves
Of this fine opportunity.
OUT OF ONE, OUT OF ALL
The superintendent has made a
ruling that pupils expelled from one
free school in the county, must not
be received in any other like school
in the same county. Expulsion,
then, becomes a serious matter 10
both parent and pupil. Trustees
and teachers can not afford TO use il
except in extreme cases when all
other measures have failed: and, OH
the other hand, parents must not
let their children override the law
laid down Tor the management and
| instruction of the latter or encour-
age or aid them in any way to acts
that will incur such a terrible pen
atty as this of having the doors OF
every school in the county shut for
ever against them.
