nothing more'than to repeat that It was
q splendid literary production, packed
with wise things; the observations OF a

The Johnston Institute, the largest
school .ween Columbia and Augusta,
has had an average enrolment Of 275
during the past two years and this
year the pi obability is that the num-
Der will reach 300. Fifteen teachers,
splendid new building and every
modern equipment ought to insure sue
cess. 1t is matter Of great gratifica-
tion that despite the hard times the
schools throughout the land seem To
be prospering.
