Are children really better off for receiving

not easily be that undue sensitiveness
would be cured by less candy and an earlier
bedtime? AS things are the sensitive child
too often tyrannzes the others who,
have such trait in their natures and
who therefore are not treated with any
special favor.

William Albert GaIIatin Brown.

William Albert Gallatin Brown was
born May %, 1880, in Blount County,
Tennessee; and amid the disadvantages
and d~eprivations of farm life, in those
times, he grew to manhood.
He had only limited means and few
educational advantages, but being of a
studious temperament, honest, and in
dustrious in habits, he applied himself
with avidity to the attainment of useful
information. The scarcity of books and
papers afforded him ample opportunity
to CLEAN closely all that came to hand.
And being a close observer, he early
learned to love and study nature in the
fields, forests, mountains and streams
that surrounded him, and for these he
had the fondest admiration, while they
were the objects of his thought and med
itatiOn.
He early observed the disadvantages
and inferiority of the ignorant, and the
advantages and superiority of the

The trustees were fortunate in again
securing the services of Misses Young

Commencement at EruitIand.

Frultland Institute is situated in the
Clear Greek Valley in a fertile farming
district, which is bounded on three sides
by mountain-peaks affording a beautiful
and inspiring landscape.
Hendersonville is to the southwest,
seven miles away, and easily reached by
good roads from Fruitland. Henderson
vile is a beautiful thriving town situated
in the loveliest and prettiest place of
Henderson. The morning sun kisses it
caressingly as dawn rouses its energetic
sleepers to duty, and the last rays of the
evening fall on it softly as the sun sinks
behind the western horizon and the red
blush slowly fades from the west. The
gentle zephyrs tanning the cheeks of
nature seem to help welcome the many
visitors of Hendersonville, which is al
ways a health resort. In a word, Hen
Jacksonville speaks for her noble self.
Fruitland is 1921 feet above the sea-
level, which elevation gives the healthful
conditions of pure air and light atmos-
phere. In winter the climate is invig-

1t is with som reluctance that / at
tempt to write an account of the work
for the betterment of the public school
at this place. When the record of what
we have done is placed side by side with
that of other places ] fear it will not
make very interesting reading. When we
compare u efforts and achievements
with what has been accomplished by
others, ours appear very tame indeed.
"The great educational wave'' never
~perceptibly affected this community till
two years ago. Then 1t came, sweeping
all before it. The dilapidated condition
of the sc~hool-house had, no doubt, forced
the conviction On the people that a new
building was necessary. The assurance.
that assistance would be Forthcoming

County, residing just across the county

$500 to aid in the erection of a school
house, on condition that the citizens sub
scribe $500 or it's equivalent in labor and
material, and that they establish a school
large enough to require the service of two
teachers.
The necessary amount was readily sub
scribed. An election was ordered and O.
special tax voted by a large majority.
In November, 1904, work or the house
was begun under the direction of an eff
icient building committee. By August

pleted as to render it possible to conn

A special tax of twenty cents per hun

cents on each poll had been levied, but
because of unforeseen expenses the funds
were insufficient to pay two teachers.

Wednesday morning the s~tudent-body
formed a line and marched from the

Then a lively duet was played as an
opening. Then the congregation rose
and sang, Il Will Sing the Wondrous

he went to Arizona in quest of health,
