A Growing School.

Six years ago O. D. Seay was elect
ed principal of The Palmetto Colleg-
late Institute, at that time only one
assistant was necessary. The en-
rolment has increased go much that
six teachers have been elected to
teach next session. When the first
year or this school had closed it was
found that 125 scholars had been en-
rolled. Last year there were 233 stu
dents in attendance. The first session
was held in two rooms, next will have
five large and commodious rooms in
which to accommodate the growing
demands. The first year about three
or four boarding and day students
were enrolled, last year there were
81 of this class. For two years there
we're no graduates, but since then
eighteen have been awarded diplo-
mas.
From the above facts it will be
seen that three times as many teach
ers are necessary now as at first, that
the enrolment has almost doubled
itself; that nearly twice as many
rooms have been provided for next
session, that the number of boarding
students has been multiplied by ff-
teen; that there have been a large
number of graduates in the past few
years.
The foregoing figures tell in mod
eet but most convincing language the
marvellous growth of the Palmetto
Collegiate Institute in the last six
years. Just think of an institution
of learning, doubling and thrilling in
almost every phase of it's workings in
the short space of six years. When
We consider the circumstances against
which this wonderful record has been
made it is to be doubted very much
if there is another institution of it's
kind in the state that can hosst Of
such progress. With the enlarged
and competent faculty, the new build
ing, the enviable record of the past
session, the prospects of the Institute
are 90 fatteripg as to more chan full
6ll the expectations of the most san
guine.
