20 VACANCIES AT THE A. & M.
COLLEGE,

There will be about twenty va
cancies in the A. & M. College IN
January owing to withdraw ais from
poverty and failures in studies.
These vacancies will be filled by
selecting young men Of mature
mind and COOL PREPARATION. Char
acler and desire to study will be
indispensable requisites.
Entrance examinations will be
held at the College in Raleigh, Jan
uary End and 3rd at 8 a. m. and 2 p.
m. No entrance examinations Will
be held elsewhere. 1t will probably
be useless for applicants to come
later, as the vacancies will all be
filled on those dates.
The work Of the College this year
has been remarkably fine. The
new Course of Mechanic Arts train
ing boys to be machinis1s, mechan-
les, engine tenders, toiler-tenders,
dynamo tenders. locomotive engin-
GERS, etc. has been very popular.
The special Course Of instruction
in the machine shop las also been
largely attended. The Textile
Department is equipped with sew
eral thousand dollars worth OF
cotton machinery and is doing adj
mirable work. Students are crowd
ing into it with enthusiasm.
The total enrolment so far is
$50, although the College has rooms
for only 100.
There has been practically no
sickness during the year, not case
lasting a week. The discipline and
morality OF the College have been
admirable in all respects.
