By announcement elsewhere in
r. R. Sanner, principal of the Acct
dent Normal, will have associated
with him as assistant instructor Prof
George b. Frazee, of District No. 2.

and earnest teacher. The success of
the school. however, will depend
largely upon the patronage accorded
it, which we have no doubt will be
satisfactory to both pupils and in
structors as we understand quite a
number have already made arrange
ments to go to Accident from this
section.
