The forty-frst annual session Of
Edward McGehee College will be-
gin Thursday, Sept nth, and it
has bright prospects for the most
successful session III the history Of
the Institution. The President,
Miss Georgia Swanson, has labored
earnestly and faithfully to bring
this school up to its present state
of excellence, and it now stands
among the foremost places Of learn
ing for girls in the South. Her
Assistants are all masters Of their
different departments of work, and
every scholar that receives a diplo-
ma at this school, is ably fitted to
make her way in the world. No
town can succeed, as it should,
without educational advantages,
and as college helps the town, 1t
necessarily devolves upon the citi-
zens of the town to lend their aid
in sustaining and building up Col
lege. There is no occasion for girls
being sent "off to school, when
such excellent opportunities as are
offered by Edward McGehee Col
lege, are to be had at home, and
this fact should receive the consid-
Grafton of every parent who has
girls to educate. Help your town
by helping your College.

Moral courage is the highest
! form Of bravery.

Moral courage is the highest type of
bravery The man who bears up un.
der humiliation or disgrace, instead OF
committing suicide, is, in my opinion
the bravest sort of man. Under such
circumstances 1t requires far more
courage to live than 1t does to die.
One particular instance illustrates
my meaning. In little Western town
