Public Meetings IN May.

The exact dates for these meetings
have not yet been arranged, but it
seems probably that public meeting
will be held at Worsham or Hampden-
Sidney about May LIST, and another at
Abilene May 9th or 10th. The chief
objects Of these two meetings is to as
certain the will Of the people Of Hamp-
den District as TO raising the district
school levy from Zoe TO 2Oc on the 500
in order to meet the actual needs Of
the schools Of the district.
Meetings will be held also at dates
not yet decided upon at Rice and at
Prospect TO ascertain whether the peo-
pie Of these communities desire TO have
a District High School has been laid
before the Board Of Education and will
no doubt soon be acted upon and we
hope favorably.
Rice and Prospect should be heard
from as soon as possible, or the oppor-
tunity Of securing state aid will be
gone.

Letter to II. c. Kayton
FdrmURie, Ia.

Dear Sir: Porterhouse, 50 much,
neck, SO much; all the way between.
Just so with paint. Devoe lead-and-
zinc is the PorterhOuse. Nobody
wants the neck; the between, some
say, is good enough for them.
But Dey0e costs less, not more, than
between. Lead-and-oil is between; il
Is the old-fashion paint. But zinc has
come in. Zinc toughens white lead.
DevOe lead-and-Zinc is the paint that
wears twice as long as lead-and-oil.
Mr.. John y. Deitel, Fair Haven, y.
Y, writes:
"Mr. Charles Hollenbeck, Of this
place, painted his house three years
ago with Deyoe lead-and-zinc; his
father painted at the same time with
lead-and-oil. Today the sons house
looks as well as the day it was painted
while the fathers house has all chalk
ed off and needs painting very badly.
The father says he will paint with
DevOe next time"
+. w. DEvOE * Co.
s.. J. f. Walton & Co. sell our

Marvellous Productions.

In this age Of wonder and invention,
no art has taken more rapid strides
than that ofmotion photography. The
masterful progress Of this science is
perhaps the greatest educator TO which
the 10Th century has given birth.
Think Of beholding the English army
plodding up the Thibetain Mountains
20 the sacred, mysterious and forbid
den city Of HASA. Think Of the
thousands of Monks in their annual
Devil festivities which hold the eye
and mind enrapt with the wonders Of
barbaric customs and splendors. Think
Of the Bedouns flight on the sands Of
Egypt, beneath the shadows Of mOnu-
ments built in the twilight Of depart
ed cycles and one realizes that a more
amusing and instructive evening
could scarcely be spent.
Yet, marvellous as they may seem,
even still more wonderful reprOduc-
tions have been secured, entailing en-
Ormous expenses, time and energy, but
with full assurance that the public,
ever hungry for good wholesome
amusement, and guided 10y their keen
sense of appreciation will merit and
repay the great effort exerted in pro-
curing them. Countless varieties Of
these features will be presented during
the exhibition Of Archie l.. Shepard's
High Glass Moving Pictures at the
Opera House next Monday night.

EDUCATIONAL COLUMN.
A Summer Normal at Farmville.

The prospects for successful Sum
mer School at this place are very
bright indeed.
The enlightened enterprise Of the
Town Council in appropriating $500
and the wise liberalty Of the Board Of
Supervisors Of this county in giving
500 towards the expenses Of such "a
school almost assure its financial sue
cess. 1t does more. 1t procures for
all Prince Edward students who at
tend a reduction fIom s. TO - for their
tuition fee for the term Of four weeks.
We can count moreover, on a libe-
raj appropriation from the county
school board Of this county and Of
other counties round about whose
teachers will largely attend this sum
mer school.
Buckingham county has already
given 500, Appomattox $50, Cumber-
land SIS, and we are confidently eX-
pecting similar appropriations from
Charlotte, Halifax, Lunenburg, Meek
lenburg Amelia, Nottoway, Powha-
tan, Campbell and other counties.
No less than 81 800 and at least 200
students is the mark we have set for
the Farmville Summer Normal.
Farmville has an educational repu-
tation 10 sustain and we propose TO
maintain the high standard Of excel
lence already associated with the
name Of Farmville through the supe-
rior educational work at the Farmyille
State Normal.
Our energetic and progressive state
Superintendent is already at work Sc
curing the best available talent for the
corps OF instructors Of this and the
other Summer NOrmals to be estab- |
lished in different parts Of the state |
and we may rest assured that Farm |
vile, with its unexcelled equipment, |
its healthful climate, its lithia water
and its cultured homes where the stu
dents will find at the same time cor |
dial welcome and wonderfully cheap |
board, will stand second to none in
the attractions and advantages offered |
to students Of the summer schools.
Already letters are coming in from
teachers in different parts Of the State
the hope that a summer
school will be carried on at this place
and denoting their desire to atterd.
The hearts Of former students Of the
State Normal who were not able TO
the course are turning back
to Farmyille and this summer will see
many Of them here reviving old mem-
Dries and imbibing fresh learning.
Another consideration that will
doubtless influence many teachers to
attend this or some other summer
school is that the new State examina-
ions, which take place on May 3-5, i'm
dude several subjects not hitherto re-
lured for a first grade certificate.
Little time Is left for preparation be-
ore the regular examinations are held,
,ut by attending a summer school
eachers or prospective ones will have
he privilege Of standing the special eX-
animation held at the close of the
chools on July 30 and 81 and Au-
rust /.
Four weeks of faithful work at the
'armville Summer School may secure
or many a teacher first grade certi-
icate when she would otherwise have
o content herself with a second
,rade certificate with less chance Of
,etting a school and less pay if she
lOes get one.

Admiral Webster at the Normal School.
ON Tuesday afternoon Admiral
Webster, recently retired from the
L.. :. Navy, on the invitation Of his
friend, Miss Blandy, Of the Normal
School faculty, delivered thoroughly
interesting lecture in the Auditorium,
on life on Man of War"
The Admiral gave an account of a
DAYS life on war vessel, including
the preparation OF food, the dress Of
sailors and officers, the amusements of
the men, their reading, etc.
OF special interest was his account
Of a burial at sea. The corpse is
sewed up in the bedclothes on
which the man died. 4 cannon
ball is placed at his feet, and corpse
slides into the water maintaining an
upright position, it is believed, even TO
the bottom of the sea, where, accord
ing to the belief Of sailors, all who
have been buried i'm this way are
standing on the bed Of the ocean, the
water helping TO hold the corpse up
right and also preserving IL.
The Thanks of our people are due
Miss Blandy for securing for us this
excellent lecture.
