RETR0GRADING7
A Few Years Ago, -Four Coco
Schools; Today Almost
None AT All.

In looking over the school situa-
tion, (and some other situations) and
taking little inventory, the ques-
tion, lis the town retrograding, - be-
comes an interesting one. Here is
about the situation, say ten ortwelve
years ago; Along about that time,
and for some years preceding, raze-
well had four hourishing schools--
Tazewell College, on the hill. Taze-
well Female Seminary, the Tazewell
High School and business school.
What we have now Is not enough 10
speak of. Tazewell College was first
run ms boys school, and had pretty
fair accommodations and was crowd
cd with pupils for several years.
Tazewell Female Seminary, the first
and oldest. occupied the site OF the
present residence OF Mrs. O'Keefre.
The school was filled from year to
year by young ladies from outside as
well rs from this town. The history
OF the school is one of which its pro-
moter and the town feel pride.
After the destruction of the building
by fire, i'm 1893 buildings were
erected on the corner opposite Hop
kin's store, and little later sold,
and after n year or so the school clos
ed for good, and the building con-
verted into a steam laundry. The
College on the hill after the closing
of the female school, became a coed
ucational Institution, and ran sue
cessfully for several years. New
buildings were added. and plans
laid for broader and larger work.
n destructive fire destroyed part
the most valuable part--of the build
ings, together with quite lot OF
furniture, ETC., and this was the end
of Tazewell College. In the mean
time, Il business college was conduct
ed in the town, which did good
work. Tazewell High School began
TO grow and pp with good patronage
from the community, and limited
number of boarding pupils. SO, IL
will be seen, there were four good
schools I'm town, all OF them well at
tended and patronlzed. The town
was always fiIled with young men
and women. There were, ali the
time, from ten TO fifteen professors-
many of them men and women of
high attachments. The churches and
business felt the inufience OF these
sch ools. The churches were flourish
ing-aIl of them having progressive
pastors and large congregations, with
stalwart business men in the amen
corners, and frequent revivals.
Have we retrograded7 What have
we now In the way OF schools? We
have a reasonably prosperous school
nova condemned school building
which means no school building at
all, and if there is anything encour-
aging in sight IL is SO far of as TO
be invisible TO the naked, natural
eye.
This may sound little pessimis-
tic, but the truth should be told,
and something done To restore TO
Tazewell something of the glory
which she once had, and rekindle
the lights which have failed. We
are richer than ten years ago. Are
our people boarding their money, and
thinking more OF material than of
intellectual, moral and religious pro-
