Our Schools ur Pride.

Union City has quite a number Of
things of which to be proud, but
we almost have cause to feel AFRO
CANT over our public school, where
one can be educated without money
and without price, and educated SC
thoroughly as to fit him or her for
most any position in lite. Men have
reached the White House with much
less education than can be acquired
at our free institution of learning,
and m occupying the lead in
nearly every vocation have not the
"book learnin that one can get at
our public school.
But this has not always been the
case. And our efficient Boards of
Education and Mayor and Alder
men, who are ever doing all in their
power for the cause of learning, are
to be congratulated in having the
services of such a superintendent
$ Prof. A. e. Darrah Id his
efficient corps OF instructors. Take
the high school department of our
school, presided over by that learned
educator, Prof. Miller, compare it
now and what it was when Darrah
took charge of the school several
years ago, at which time it could
boast of but twenty-five pupils.
Now it has one hundred and thirty,
and the grade has been raised until
a diploma from this department
carries its owner right into Wander
bilt. And there are eight students
who will this commencement gradu-
ate for that famous institution of
learning. Not only that, but sew
eral of its pupils are now in the
noted universities of Knoxville and
Lebanon, having gone direct from
Union City's public school into the
sophomore classes. Compare, too,
the building of the present with
that of the past. The one which
now holds the FIVE hundred or six
hundred scholars would be an honor
to town many times the size of
Union City.
The people of Union City and
Obion County are to he congratu-
lated on the action of the Board
Tuesday night in re-electing Prof.
Darrah for his seventh term. and it
is generally hoped that the corps OF
efficient instructors under him may
be retained. and all of them further
add to the fame of our school, which |
is now sought by many non-resi-
dents to educate their children. In
the building, in neatly furnished |
studio, can be found one of the
most proficient and widely-known
instructors of Music in the State,
Prof. e. c. Ownby, who always has
/ large class from among the many
pupils, to W h ON he teaches the

This splendid result was accomplished in about
