One Of the South's Most Popula
Scholastic Work It is Doing

One of the South's Most Popular
schooIs-The Work It is Doing.
The next session of this noted boarding
and day school for young ladies, com
mences on Sept. 5, next.
Already applications for catalogues are
being received, and the promise is of an
other prosperous year.
The past year has been one of wide
spread financial depression, but notwith-
standing this fact, the institute has had a
prosperous year.
No school in the south has en- loved more
constant and brilliant success than the
Agnes Scott. and the causes of this sue
cess are evident.
l. Its location in North Georgia is I'M
rivaled; the local surroundings are ideal
Decatur having long been noted for its
refined, educated and religious society
2. y large and accomplished corps of
trained and experienced teachers, each
member of the faculty having been Sc
lected for his or her character and special
qualifications for the chair occupied.
B. Thorough work. The utmost effort
is made to do thorough teaching, and no
careless or Anticipated methods are used
None of the officers or teachers have any
financial interest in the management of
the institute, and each teacher is able to
give ner or MS entire time and
undivided and DISTINGUISHED at
tention to the work of instruct
ing. Pnpils not making satisfactory
progress, or not improving their time, are
not allowed to waste the money of pa
rents by further attendance
The curriculum is already high. It is
rigidly pursued, and is being steadily ad-
vanced as the school grows in years. 1t
is the desire and aim of trustees and fac
ulty to place the Agnes Scott as the leader
in elevating the standard of female edu-
cation in the south.
The special departments, as music and
art, are well equipped and under charge
Of skilled specialists, are fully abreast of
the times and the best schools.
4. The low scale of fees, these having
been fixed, not with the view of money!
making, but simply to cover current ex-
penses, repairs and equipment
s. The superb buildings were construct
ed especially for school purposes after the
best approved plans. They are all of
brick, heated bv steam, lighted by cleo
tricity, scientifically ventilated and sun
