beyond my dreams.
Of all school superlntendents
I have met all over the land land

beautiful and refreshlng,) I have
never known one, [ think, who
knew his business better or who
had a cleaver eye as to what a
school community needs, than
Prof. J. D. Vandiver, of Acker-
man. He learned the necessary
things long ago that there are
some lessons not learned in
books, and when he SAID last
December: Come again before
the term ends-I want you to
help wake up my people on the
meaning of education. [ said in
my heart: THAT man will move
things in that community if all
the people will awake and stand
by him"'
They are waking and they are

nouncement of the Tulane Snm-
mer School. I shall be pleased
to have you examine the An
nouncements and to give the

the Announcement that the
school is of interest to the teach
ers in your community.
Last year held our first sum-
mer school in Tulane and the
success of it was beyond our ex-
pectations. There we're $50
students enrolled and splendid
results were obtained. We have
been encouraged to offer a more
extended list of subjects for this
summer and have greatly increas
ed onr faculty roll.
This school is no money max
ing scheme, as is evidenced by
the fact that the only fee charg
ed is one of SO for registration.
tuition is free in all the courses.
The school is an effort on the
part of the State Institute Board
of Louisina and of the Board of
Administrators of Tulane Uni
iversity to afford to teachers and
others in the South an opportu-
nifty to secure first-class educa-
tional advantages in the summer
near at home. &
