TRAINING SCHOOL NOTES.

Last week we called up our good
editor, Capt. Oltenburg, asking him
to say that at some convenient loca-
tion in the business part Of town we
would put on exhibition specimens of
drawing done by the pupils of grades
six to ten, inclusive. We are now
looking for a place adapted to the
purpose and hope to be able to an
nounce in this issue definite arrange
ments. When the drawings are
ready to be seen, We ask that all
friends of the cause of education in-
spect them. 1t will be an encourage
ment to the pupils, inspiring them to
renewed effort.
The introduction Of drawing always
reveals power among the pupils until
then unknown. This display of draw
ing will impress you with that fact.
1t is not too much to say that talent
Of a superior order on this line ex-
lists among us, talent which under
direction and careful cultivation " i'll
prove very valuable to its possessors.
When you see this work, please re-
member that children did It, children
who, for most part, scarcely believed
at one time it lay in their power to
draw anything.
The fourth quarterly examination
is going on this week and will con-
tinue for some days into the next.
The most difficult studies are to come
last, so if you have missed this weeks
work. come in Monday and take those
studies which will cause most trouble
i O6I6Ef6d,
We have at this writing had a
lumber CT absentees to return for
he examination. Measles, heat, and
minor ailments have operated to re-
luce our number somewhat, MT to
mention the uncomfortable quarters
a other respects. The average for
he month ending recently was how {
ver up to the usual limit, we believe. |

perature during the last three DAYS
was about normal; the mean temper
ature for the week as a whole was
four degrees below normal. Light to
moderate showers fell on the 10Th |
and 18th, but oyer the greater por-
lion of the state the rainfall was in-
'ufticient for the needs Of crops,
The week was very favorable for
arm work, which Is we'll advanced,
'ut the cool nights caused vegetation
o grow slowly. In the northern and
portions Of the state

Mite injurious to crops. Crops is

ions stands are irregular; the most
avorahle reports are received from

WILL KEEP OLD NAME
CHANGE AT PRESENT OPPOSED
BY COMMITTEE OF THE
EPISCOPAL CHURCH.
.

Boston. May 1.-THE committee Of
fifteen which was appointed by the ma
tional triennial convention of the
Episcopal church at San Francisco in
1901 to consider the ACCESSIBILITY of
changing the legal name of the de-
nomination has prepared an extended
report in which the opinion is ex-
pressed that any change at this time
is inexpedient. The report is to be
submitted to the general convention,
which will assemble in this city next
October.
The report is signed by all fifteen
members of the committee, although
three appendices, one signed by seven
members, a second signed by five and
third by one, are attached.
The second appendix recommends
that the words protestant Episcopal
on the title page of the book of COM
mon prayer be stricken out.
Although officially party lines were
not drawn in the Investigation of the
sentiment in all Of the seventy-eight
dioceses and missionary districts a
change was generally favored by the
high church party and, with one or two
exceptions, the committee, while
agreeing on the report itself, divided
on the supplementary statement.

Attention
Farmers.

Why remain il. the North and
stay in doors six months in the
year consuming what you raise
the other six months?
Go South where you can work
out doors every month in the
year, and where you are produce
ing something the year round.
II you are a stock raiser you
know your stock are now "eat-
ing their heads off" and besides,
have to be protected from the
rigors OF winter by expensive
shelter
Economical stock feeding re-
quires the combination of both
f1esh-forming and ,fat-formiDg
foods in certain proportions.
Alabama and Florida produce in
abundance the velvet. bean and
cassava. the first a flesh produ-
Ger, and the latter a fat produ.
Ger, and they are the cheapest
and best fatteninG materials
known to the world.
More money can be made and
with less labor, in general farm
ing, fruit and berry growing,
and truck gardening along our
road in the South than in any
other section in the Union.
