EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.
BY MISS FANNIE WINFIELD.

There is no royal road to success.
That method is best which makes the
pupil think most.
Let things that have to be done be learn
ell 10y doing them.
Think for yourself.
Discipline as practiced in the schools
may relate to both intellectual and moral
culture.
Have the committees appointed by the
County Association forgotten to arrange
the program and make their reports? The
last Saturday in November is not very dis
tant, and those who are to furnish papers
or addresses will need some time for pre-.
paratiOn.
Our school is still growing-several new
pupils in music and art the past month.
Prof Savage was very pleasant visitor
at c. Il. |. Wednesday.
Some of our pupils come more than eight
miles 10 school and are on time, while
Others walk two and three miles and are
never tardy.
The pupils in Sixth and Seventh Grades
were discussing teachers this week, and
two We're heard to declare they had the
best teacher in the world and wouldn't
trade with anybody.
A brighter, prettier or sweeter Primary
room than that in Crowley Ridge Institute
cannot be found in Arkansas.
The hydrant on the campus is quite a
convenience.
DO you want thorough business. class
ical, musical, or collegiate education? You
can get it without leaving home.
Miss Williams has a most attractive
studio. and can give YOU the same course
in Art that you would get at the New York
Art League.
This is our first subscription month and
no pereeptIble decrease in pupils.
Quarterly examinations Friday and Sat

meager reports we CLEAN the following
account of the shooting:
There had been an old grudge exist
ing between Joe Sartain and = Skip.
per. and Wednesday, by chance or in
tention, the parties confronted each
other, Sartain armed with Winches
ter and skipper shot gan. Sartain
got the first Shot, and plugged Skipper
in the stomach, the bullet passing
through his body and SCATTERING his
backbone. As Skipper fell to the ground
Sartain turned to run, when Skipper
raised on his elbow and emptied load
of buckshot into Sartain's back-three
blue whlstlers taking effect-probably
inticting a fatal wound. Skipper died
yesterday, and Coroner Gaines left for
the scene last night to hold All inquest.
