WINFIELD HIGH SCHOOL OPENING
Last Monday the Eight Months Grind Began Under
= Most Favorable Auspices. The Opening Exercises
Were Largely Attended by Patrons of the School

Huey. The singing and drawing IS
still under the able direction of Miss
Gibson.
A new department has been added
to the school this session, that OF
expression and physical culture with
Miss Ella Ewing as teacher. The
school is very fortunate in having IN
this department. young woman OF
such charming personality as Miss
Ewing.
The study of piano is under the
direction of the Misses Gamble and
Ewing. These young ladies are we'll
prepared to fill the positions they
hold, having studied under some OF
the ablest musicians of the south.
THE OPENING.
Long before the hour for the open
! ing of school throngs of children had
assembled at the door of tho school.
An unusually large number of patrons
and friends joined them in time to
listen to the addresses delivered by
Sen. Oglesby and Hon. Cas- Moss.
Both addresses were congratulatory
of the management of the school and
very happily delivered. Mr.. Avery
then made q short address outlining
some plans and expressing his
pleasure at the presence of so many
patrons, school board members, town
officials and others. After the sing
ing Of America by the entire audience
the teachers conducted the children
to their respective rooms. The tota
enrolment for the day was 437.

The Winfield High School opened
on Monday morning Sept. 5 for the
session Of 1901 under most favor
! able auspices. The conditions seem
ideal for the most successful year in
the history of the school. Mr.. W. J.
Avery, the principal on whose
shoulders rests the burden of execu-
tive power, comes to our town we'll
recommended for the place he is to
fill. His reputation is that of a
thorough disciplinarian, and man
we'll qualified to direct the affairs of
the school as he feels they should be
direct ed. The systematic manner in
which he conducted the opening of
the school and the methodical way in
which he began to dispose of knotty
problems, appealed to the observer as
every evidence shat he is and means
to be master of the situation. He is
very fortunate in having corps OF
able and enthusiastic young teachers
as his assistants. Mr.. Nixon our able
superintendent seems to have made
very happy selections in all depart
ments.
The High School department will
be under the direction of the follow.
ing teachers; Messrs. Fontenot and
Harrell; Misses Nolen, Redwine, and
Graham. The grammar grades will
be taught by Mr.. Pugh, Misses Davis
Holmes, Langford, and Harper
while the primary grades are still ii
charge OF those efficient and popula,
teachers, Misses Jackson, Peters, ant

grand success this year as the time is

ELECTRICITY AS iLLUMINAN1
Commercial Value Was Not Developed
in This Country Until After the
Centennial Exhibition Of 1876.

The first experimental philosopher
to discover that electric light could
be produced by dry battery was Sir
Humphrey Davy, who in 1910 exhibited
q light three inches long, between car
bon points, before the Royal Society Of
London. But no commercial value was
attached to the use of electricity as
an illuminant until more than half q
generation later The Centennial ex-
hibition, held in Philadelphia in 1876,
really marks the era of our present
form of electric light, though electric
lights had been in use abroad prior
to that time. The exhibition of mod
els and practical demonstrations OF
electric lights at Philadelphia In 1876
attracted the attention Of scientists
and capitalists In this country, and the
first incandescent lamps and the first
arc system were put to practical use
in a small way in 1875. The Brush
arc light gained favor In the begin
ming as the most adaptable for street
lighting, and Cleveland, O., the home
of Charles Francis Brush, the invent
or, was the initial American city to
adopt the arc system for street light
