Washington, Feb. s--(6pecial) )--The offices of the Southern Commercial Congress are to be opened tomorrow in the Union Trust Company building which Is located diagonaily across from the corner of valuable ground that has been secured by that organization for the erecting of the proposed million dollar building.

 The local eommittee of co o-oparation Is now practically complete, and inc ciudes the following. Oscar S. Straus, Secretary of Commerce and Labor; Luke D. Wright. Secretary of War. W. W. Finley. President of the South ern Railway; Clifford Pinchot, Chief Forester: Charles H. Treat, Treasurer of the United StAkes. ss,se
 Discugsing the plans of the Congress today, Mr. Dave said. ts
 The work that will be lifideetaken by the Congress will be an slestic ef4 fort and as many lines of endeavorsa ret in motion as the funds will permit. There are two or three things that t win not do. It will not duplicate . single line of effort at present being carried out by the great departments of the government. It will supplement their work since no department can properly spend any effort in the en- deavor to develop any one sectiQn.
 "Furthermore the Congress wifi not endeavor to build up the South at the expense Of the North and West; 1t will merely endeavor to bring the South to the point of development that shall place t on . parity with the Worth and West. For the endowment of the work the Southern Commercial Conv gress will need at least afHil1ion A6i. larss This Is small amount when entrusted with the resulta that can be brought to the South. Granting that the South approxiInetes the North in de- velopment in the next few years there is not county in the South and not aSeity but will be enhanced in value many tirnea the million deilark re. quirea to maintain perpetual work.

To THE ALUMNI.
My Dear Friends We haye a beau
tiful new $50, 900 building, and are an
xious to have you look it over at COM
mencement time this year. This, too,
is the ushering in of our quarter-centen-
nial anniversary year. Boys, you know,
reach their majority at twenty-one,
normal schools, at twenty-five. Come
and advise us concerning the desirabi
ity of celebrating in some way. Shall
we issue souvenir volume giving a
record of the graduates and their work?
Shall we attempt to make it an occasion
of special favor to the school by the
next legislature2
Please note that we now, for the first
time in years, haye room for additional
numbers Of students, aud want to get
them. Next fall we shall have several
more teachers than heretofore, and
greatly increased facilities for doing
good work, such as much improved
library, new laboratories, strong art
department, improved musical advant-
age and better training departments,
(practice school) than ever before.
Our Sixth Year Course, leading to a
life certificate, and fitting former gradu-
tes for principalships or high school
teachers, or to take such advanced
standing in college as will save fully two
years of time in taking college course,
is proving great success. This year
we have nine admiring people complet.
ing this course. We are proud of them,
and they are all more than satisfied
with what they have been getting. If
you are still in the profession, and have
not had college degree, can't you come
and take this course? You would never
regret doing 80.
We have a very strong and highly
satisfactory faculty, and everything in
better shape than eyer before in the
history of the school, and I earnestly
ask If you are not proud of your alma
mater, and anxious to give her a
boost, by using your influence to help
her to further growth and usefulness.
We would especially like at this time to
get as many strong high school gradu-
ates as possible to enter, and will gradu-
ate all the really good ones in a year.
Kindly take it upon yourself to send us
one or more good students, if you are
not too far away.
Hoping to see you here commence
ment week, I am
Yours most cordially,
FL. Cook, President.
