SCHOOL NOTES.

Enrolment 154.
Il. Ii. Mitchell, of Nicholson, en-,
tered Monday.
Revs. Ellis and Shepherd, Prof.
Anderson, Mrs. Ellis and Mrs.
Scott attended chapel exercises
Friday.
Rev. G. f. Emery conducted ex~
ercises Monday, and seemed much
gratitied with what he saw.
Our friends say the attendance
here is far ahead of any similar
school in South Mississippi.
In a private letter received a
few days ago by Prot. Thames from
Hon. L. s. Ford, of Columbia, the
writer among other things says:
.fl must Congratulate you upon
the reputation which the Popular
vile High School has gained under
your management. / know you
must have very earnest interest
in the cause of education, and it is
a source of qualification to me that
you are doing such splendid work.

should keep their shoulders to the
wheels of educational progress. 1t
has been demonstrated time and
| again that WellocOnducted and
popular institution of learning adds
population, refinement and wealth
to the community in which 1t may
be located. Poplarville is blessed
with one of the most flourishine
high schools in Southeast Mississippi
pi, and It's Influence for the geners
al good of the public is already be-
ing perceptibly experienced. Iu
this connection the Vicksburg Post
says:
"Good schools never fail to draw
people to the community in which
they are located. Oxford has the
State University, the Union Female
College, and fine public school
and great deal of the prosperity OF
that town is due 10 these educa-
tiOnal institutions.
Millsaps College, Belhayen Col
lege, aud the splendid Graded
School have greatly benefited Jack
sou and increased it's population, 8
number OF families having moved
to that city to eujoy it's exceptions
al educational advantages"
The Picayune of Monday contains
nearly column write'up of oul
school. A good picture OF Prof
Thames accompanies this excellent
