Mr.. WILLIAMS
~BANQUfTED.
The Guest of Honor at a Banquet Civ
en- by Club of A. and M. College.

The members Of the Williams Club OF
Economic and Social Science, an or.
ganization recently perfected among the
students of the Agricultural and Mech
anical College at Starkyille, enjoyed
their first banquet Friday evening in
our city, the spread being made in the
lovely spacious dining room of the New
Holt.
Hon. John Sharp Williams, a promi-
nent candidate for the United States
Senate and Mississippi's most illustrious
son, was a guest Of honor and delivered
a magnificent Grafton upon american
Race Problem, which held the audi
ence in enraptured attention for an hour
or more. A mar eminently fitted to dis
cuss such a topic, and it is needless to
say that Mr.. Williams address was a
masterpiece Of philosophy, argument,
and rhetoric, and it is truly a pity that
every man, woman, and child in Mississ-
ippi did not have the opportunity to
hear him.
Among other prominent Mississip-
pianspresent were Hon. A.. r. Fox and W.
c. George.
The banquet was given in honor Of
the society's newly elected officers, and
the menu served in the New Hollis in
imitable style did full justice to the oc-
casion. West Point Press.

Congressman Humphreys, of this dis
trict, and Capt. Gus G. Meissonier, Supt.
OF the Sun1ower Packet Co, had a CON
ference in GreenviIle on the 9th inst.
on the proposed inspection of the upper
Suntiower river.

flower with these gentlemen this week,
but he was called away on imperative
business in the East, and will not return
for two weeks.
After going e the situation fully, ID
was agreed at the conference on Mon
day night to postpone this inspection
trip until June goth, when Captain Hof-
man will be able to be with them.
No work that Mr.. Humphreys has done
for his district IL more appreciated or
Will rebound more to his own credit and
the advantage of the Delta than his in
terest in the fine natural waterways
with which the country is so a~bundantly
supplied.
1t is only within recent years that at
tention has been directed to these
streams and their value as highways.
With the exception Of portions Of the
Yazoo and Sunlower the rivers Of the
Delta have been allowed from time I'M
memorial TO remain cboked with OBJ
structions, making them useless except
periods Of high water.
The Yazoo, the sunfower, Culver, and
Bogue can all be made navigable for
light craft during a great part of the
year, and our Representative In Con
gress il not blind to the great adyant-
ages that will accrue from such a work.
The undertaking to improve and utilize
these streams is one worthy Of his abili-
ty and interest in all that affects the
welfare of his district.
The Delta is already gridironed with
railways, and extensions and branches
are constantly in course construction.
The opening Of its four rivers to navi
will give it finer and more ad-
vantagcous facilities for transportation
than are enjoyed by any other equal
area Of this country. GrcenviIlc Times.

The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1905-12-14

The Glenwood Academy has now
entered upon the thirteenth year of
its existence. During the twelve
years since it was founded it has en-
joyed steady growth. The enroll
ment of the school has been increasing
steadily from year to year, until last
year the students in all the different
departments numbered PIG. Last
year it was found necessary to engage
an additional teacher during the
winter term in order to give to all the
students the necessary attention. AS
the attendance this year bids fair to
eclipse that of all former years ar
rangements have already been made
for the procuring of additional teachers
during the winter term.
The Academy has, during these few
years of it's existence, met with fair
measure of success. 1t now has more
than 40 graduates making an average
of more than a dozen every year.
These are filling responsible positions,
and are counted among the most wide
awake people in the communities in
which they live. 1t has been found
that there is a demand for young
men and women who have received
just such training as this institu-
ton gives. The school depends for
its prosperity upon the character of

and around is level stretch suited
for campus.
The school building is located on
the highest point of the grounds, and
commands good view Of the lake as
we'll as the town. 1t is a three-story
structure, above high and we'll
lighted basement. The building is
56X54 feet, built of timber and brick
veneered. The basement is fitted out
for boarding purposes with a dining
room, kitchen, and some private apart
ments. The remaining part OF the
building is used for class 70 oms, as
sembly hall, etc,

training under the guidance OF Christ
ian influence and religious instrue-
ton. 1t is the aim of the school to
train the students to conscientious
work and thorough scholarship within
the scope of the respective courses,
and also to work for the proper de-
velOpment of the students moral and
religious nature, without which all
culture, whether intellectual or other
wise, must necessarily be one-sided
and incomplete. The school offers
excellent opportunities for young
people to obtain a general education
or to extend their knowledge in some
particular branch. A student may
enter with advantage at whatever stage
of advancement he may be. He may
take regular course according to the
outline given, or he may select the
branches he desires to pursue.
Location
The Academy is located at Glenwood,
Mimi, near the beautiful Lake
Minnewaska. Glenwood is the county
seat of Pope county. 1t is thriving
place of about twelve hundred inhabit-
ants. 1t is located on the Minnesota
division of the 500 Line, and on the
Little Falls & Dakota branch of the
Northern Pacific railway. The place
is thus accessible from all parts Of the
Northwest. In the heart of an extern
sive and prosperous country, with a
general absence sof unwholesome in
huences, Glenwood is in every respect
a very desirable location. The hos
pitality of her citizens affords valuable
opportunities for refining social inter-
course. The vast number of tourists
that visit it every summer pronounce
it one of the finest summer resorts in
the stste. There are splendid eppOf-
tunities for out-of-door sports and re-
creation at all seasons, highly con-
ducive to the harmonious development
of thus manhood and womanhood.
Grounds
The Academy grounds consist OF a
ten-acre tract situated less than one
half mile from the center of the viii
lage, and less than forty rods from the
lake. This lot contains an eminenee
amply large for all buildings needed,

mon branches will find in these classes
the very work they desire. All of
these people will have an opportunity
here of giving attention to the special
subject or subjects to which they may
wish to give their time.
To help make this work in the COM
mon branches as productive of good
results as possible the teaching force
will be increased during the winter
term. In doing this an attempt will
be made to get teachers that have had
much experience in the public schools
and who can thus give the students
the most valuable assistance for
their school work.
1t is for the especial benefit of the
rural school teachers that this review
work is designed, and therefore no
pains will be spared to make their

them into the mysteries of stenography.
The victim when entering the school
is persuaded to believe that the system
taught at that particular school is
the "only perfect and best system. :"
Now there are $50 different systems
of shorthand taught in America, and
very few persons are acquainted with
more than two, and it is very difficult
to determine which is the best. All
the commonly used systems are good
it mastered by the pupil. We have
this year engaged as teacher in short
hand Mrs Samuel Olson, who is a
graduate of Saltwater Business Col
lege, and has had several years of
experience as office and court Ste
nographer. The system taught is the
PERRIN. Any pupil with sufficient
knowledge of the English language
and possessing ordinary ability can,
by taking our course, become COM
petent office stenographer. The main
requirement for learning shorthand
is persistency in practice. A person
lacking persistency should not under
take to learn shorthand.
The tuition charged for the short
hand course at our Academy is only a
small fraction of the charges of the
ordinary business college.
The machines used for instruction
in typewriting are the Remington and
the Smith Premier. The touch system
is used.
Music and EIocution
That the public recognizes the inn
portance of music as a means of cul'
ture and refinement is amply testified
by the way the course is patronized.
Miss Thalia Thorson, who for two
years has taught instrumental music,
will continue her work in connection
with the Academy the coming year
The work she has done is the best
recommendation.
The Academy has also engaged as
teacher in vocal music, Miss Clara S
Larson of Minneapolis, Mimi. She
has taken private lessons in voice
culture with Mrs. Cheny of Newport
a pupil of Shakespeare, London, anc
has studied Anatomy of the voice.

Skillful and trustworthy clerks and
book-keepers are always in demand
in the business world. 1t is the aim
of this course to prepare the student
thoroughly for practical work in the
Office, store, or bank. A. person pos
sessing a thoro knowledge of the COM
mon branches will be able to complete
this course in year.
The Normal Course
The special aim of this department
is to meet the wants of those who
wish to fit themselves for teaching
in the public schools, and the course
embraces all the branches required
for State teachers first grade certi-
ficate. Graduates Of this course have

its work, and the best evidence that
it has accomplished it's purpose lies
in the success of the students who
have gone out from it.
What Some Of our Graduates are
An idea of what few of our gradu-
ates are doing can be gained from the
following list:
