High School Announcement.

tWenty-SiNth session OF TaZe-
well High School. Everything
looks promising for the most
successful year in the history
OF the school. Desks have been
ordered for more pupils; Il .ol-
ring partition has been put in
the new building, thus provio-
ing a separate building for the
High School department, fully
equipped for all Rotations, in
fact, there are now two distinct
Schools-IIigh and Grammar.
Parents are deciding this
week what schools they will
patronizc. Their decision will
be determined by the character
Of the school, cost and convc-
niencc.
Much is meant by the char
acter Of the school. 1t means
the history, the local Influences;
the equipment; the teaching
force; the training given to soul,
mind and body.
The High School has twenty
five years Of history; the former
students are rejecting honor on
the old school. Last year was
the most successful in the histo.
ry Of the school; ask the pa
irons how they were pleased.
AS to local influences: IN
Tazewell we have the happy.
medium for Il school between
the rush, temptations, and dis
fractions of II city, and the mo-
notony of the country The
great preparatory schools of the
world are in small towns, 70
develop Il boy meeting and deal.
ing with men there is no need
Of social contact, but he must
not lose his identity in the rush
of life found in Il city, Tazcwell
is Il town OF beauty, culture.
hospitality and morality-the
local influences are refining.
We have two splendid build
ingS, one for he High School.
the other tie Grammar school.
These buildings are comfortable
and well equipped with school
furniture.
We waste no time in numer-
Gus public entertainments. Not
only do these entertainments
distract the students attention
from his studies, but they also
foster an unhealthy self con-
seriousness and vanity.
We have mapped out Il teach
er's course in our public schools.
This, at the suggestion of our
County Superintendent; if You
are thinking Of teaching next
year, we respectfully urge that
you take this course and be pre-
pared to make Il high mark on
your examinations. Many prof-
ted by the normal of a year
ago that lasted two weeks
this is Il course OF nine months.
Many parents wish to send
their children where they will
have opportunities III the way
of art, music, physical culture,
and business. We have all one
could wish for in these special
departments.
Music, art. and physical cnl-
ture departments open with the
school September 4. The bus
mess department opens Septem-
Der 18th.
Our students board in private
homes. Christian home inhu
ence is something that the best
boarding departments lack.
Cost is an item parents al
ways consider. Tuition here
In the High School, music, art
and business departments would
cost you S27.00 Il session. Ii
free school branches there is nc
tuition the first term, the second
term the, intermediate depart
ment the tuition is 500, the
Primary: $500. Physical cul
. ture, $500 Il term. Contin
, gent fee, $l.00 a session.
: Thus you have every opor
S tunlty for your child at the
. lowest cost.
