WOman's Club.

The Tallahassee Woman's Club re-
quest the publication of the following,
and we very gladly comply:
Leon County High School has bright
prospects for the coming year. The
tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades have
been added and several new teachers
who are graduates of Normal colleges
in Kentucky, Georgia and Virginia,
have been elected for the coming term.
The present building only contains
six rooms. The first grade last year
numbered seventy-eight, and could not
ce taught in any one of these rooms,
consequently two rooms were secured
en- another lot not far distant, leaving
night grades to be taught in six rooms
at the public school. Three more
grades are to be added October LIST.
Up to the present time Leon County
has depended upon the Florida State
College for the high school work. This
can be done no longer. Each county is
required by the Buchanan law to pro-
vide for its own High School.
Every enterprising citizen of this
county wants a good school. 1t enhan-
ces the value of property and is the
means of bringing people where fine
school is located for the purpose of ed
ucating their children. No man ought
to willingly sit down and allow the
the school to suffer for lack of interest.
Tallahassee people are To- loyal to her
cause to fall short of their duty at this
point. 1t is not a question Of whether
we want to or not, but the time has
come when we must make room for the
children of Tallahassee and the suronud-
ing country; there is no other alterna-
tive. Many fathers and widowed
mothers have large families of children
to educate, and no money to send them
from home TO be educated. Make your
public shcool what it ought to be and
send you. boys and girls there.
Thirty-five counties in our State have
sub-districts, and the number increases
each year The urgent need of a sub
district in Tallahassee is for building
purposes. II we can secure a three
mill tax it will erect a building which
will accommodate our children for many
years to come. There is no other way.
Every city in our State where there is
a high school has worked on this plan.
Each person shares a small part Of the
expense and no one is burdened.
We have been asleep for long time,
but we are wide awake now, and we
must put our shoulders TO the wheel and
each one do his part. Before another
year closes we expect TO point with
pride to the home of our Leon County
High School as a building no county
need be ashamed Of.

The usual symmetry of The True
Democrats pages are somewhat married
this week, owing to a number Of "cir-
cumstances over which we had no con-
troll"
Pending removal to our new Office, we
have had TO conduct our business under
great and very aRgravating disadvan-
tages. With two large windows in our
principal work room closed by the walls
of the new building, we have literally
had 10 work in the dark" or with a
very unsatisfactory and inadequate sup
ply of artificial light And besides this,
we have been blessed with a perfect
avalanche of new and very important
job work, each item Of which was press
ing for completion and delivery in the
shortest possible time.
For the prospect of new, large and
thoroughly arranged Office, into which
we hope to move in q few days, and for
the generous patronage we are receiv'
ing, as we'll as the kind patience of our
patrons in overlooking inevitable de-
lays, we feel exceedingly grateful; and
we hope to be able, in a short time. to
meet promptly every requisite Of our

IN AEhORIAh.

Rey. E, Trice was born March 1874,
and died at Sopchoppy, Fla, August
18th. 1906 He ran away from home TO
Join the Confederate army before he
was seventeen. He was married in 1866,
to Miss lisa Grant, daughter of John
Grant, one of three pioneer settlers
from South Carolina at old SopchOppy
and Smith Creek, In Wakulla county.
He was ordained a Baptist Minister in
1872 or 1873 and until health failed,
nearly 20 years, was one OF the best
lnOwn and most active members of the
Florida Association. He was one of
the promoters, and, perhaps, one of the
first trustees Of Stetson University I'M
der it's old name. Mr. Trice was always
as active as his position would admit in
politics, but would not accept any Office
except as a member OF school board,
TO which Office he was appointed by
Governor Bloxham during his first term,
He was Chaplain of the House Of Rep
resentatives at the Session Of 1901. He
had been a great sufferer since Febru-
airy last, but steadfastly refused to al
low a physician summoned, and said
from the beginning that he would never
get up. Some two months before his
death he took a notion to visit an old
friend Joseph Wood near Sopchoppy,
and after getting there grew worse so
rapidly that he could not be moved back
home. He was a member of the Ma
sonic Lodge at Tallahassee, and was
buried by his Brother Masons at Sop
choppy, the interment being at the
Cemetery at that place, on Wednesday,
September Goth
Thus passed to his eternal reward one
of the most devoted of Christian min
listers and most faithful and conscien-
tious Of citizens. Peace TO his ashes
