at Brenau, will be in charge of the School of Oratory; Miss Florence Ovef- ton, who for the past five years has been the Director of Brenau School of Oratory, and has made 1t the greatest school of its kind in the South, will spend a portion of her time at The Alabama Brenau. and all pupils of this department will come directly under her tuition. The department will be affiliated with the Emerson School of Oratory, Boston, and pupils from 1t will be admitted to the Emerson School without examination. One of ths strong features of the school will be
 The Home Department,
 which will be under the control and influence of Mrs. Lola s. Cartledge who for three years has been at BrenAu College-Conservatory Gainesville. VI
 She is a splendid Christian woman, ana girls who come under her influence are to be congratulated. Shefs a splendid home-maker, and will givesto the col- lege a delightful home atmosphere. During her three years at Brenau. she was loved by every student, becauso she was always ready to do anything in her power to make their stay at the college pleasant and home like.
 The Same Methods of Discipline
 which have brought such great success to Brenau College, will be used at the Alabama Brenau. For ten years Presi- dents Van Hoose and Pearce have used what is known as the self-governed system, and so successful has 1t been that many other schools of the South are introducing 1t. Only few days since, the President of one of the largest schools in Virginia wrote the
 management of Brenau as follows: ''we have heard your plan of govern | zxA l.. lfk,,a fsz. ry manner and are informed that 1t Is outlined in your catalogue Please sent us a catalogue or description of this plan of government. and we shall be very glad to forward cost of same" The object of this system Is to develop all that Is good in girl by placing her largely, almost entirely upon her honor; the student body is the govern ing power, and so successful has the plan become, that case of discipline is almost an unknown quantity in the management of the students.
 There are other points of excellence which your correspondent would like to write, but this letter has already gone beyond the limits of a newspaper article, and I shall be compelled to ask all who desire to know more of tho
 workings of the college to write for one of the handsome announcements | that are now being sent out
 Board and Tuition for the Next Year. | As the citizens of Eufaula have been | very generous towards the college. the management will make an exceedingly low rate of board and tuition for the year beginning September 27th. These
 rates will be made known upon appli- cation. and <he fact that they are usually low does Hsat.,tpdicate that the accommodations will be any lU*. the best. There will not be a more beau- tifully furnished nor better kept home department in any college of the South than that of The Alabama Brenau. Realizing. however, that the school Is to be built from the beginning, and aided by the generosity of the people of Eufaula, Presidents Van Hoose and Pearce have decided to make the cost for board and tuition merely nominal. Eufaula will support the college with a large patronage and no one here has the least doubt that great things are in store for 1t. Applications are eona- ing in by every mail and the Secretary of the College is kept busy answering letters of inquiry.
