THIS WEEK BRINGS OPENING
or EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTES
Public Schools Of City VIII Resume Work Monday, and the
Industrial institute and College WlI Open Its
Doors on the Following Day.

come along, little girls, COM
along.
We've been wishing for yol
mighty strong.
We gladly welcome you. for W.
know you're true, M
. Dear little girls in blue.
This will be a gala week fol-
Columbus, the educational center
of East Mississippi, as it will
witness the opening of all her
institutions of learning. The
public schools will resume work
for the winter Monday, and on
the following day that grand and
glorious temple of learning. the
Industrial Institute and College,
will open wide its portals, and
young girls from all portions of
the state will come here for the
purpose of receiving instruction
in the various branches included
in its splendid curriculum.
The advancement of the mus
trial Institute and College since
the institution was established in
1885 has been steady and unceas-
ing, and during the summer
which is now so rapidly drawing
toward its close many improve
ments have been made.
The legislature at its last ses-
sion made provision for the erec-
ton of a new dormitory and din
ing hall and this building now
stands completed. 1t is a large
and commodious structure, the
lower floor being given over en-
tirely to the dining room and
kitchen. while the floors above
are devoted to sleeping apart
ments for students. In design
ing the building Architect Hunt
devoted special attention to light
and sanitation and to the intro
duction of features that will
vastly improve the service, there
by adding materially to the
health and comfort of the stu
dents. To successfully cater to
the gastronomic tastes of six or
seven hundred persons requires
not only special knowledge but
special equipment, and while

has always been most efficient in
her work, she has heretofore
been handicapped by lack of fa-
cilities. The old dining room
was not properly equipped for
rapid service, and it was neces-
sary to begin placing the meals
on the tables at least half an
hour before the students were
permitted to enter and take their
seats. This of course allowed the
food to grow cold and unpalata-
BILE, and naturally affected its di-
gestibility. The new dining hall,
however, is fully equipped with .
all modern conveniences. and the
service will be as rapid and as
efficient as that of an up-to-date {
hotel.
In addition to the serving c
room, which is equipped with e
steam tables to keep the food 7
hot while it is being placed in r

many Columbians took advant-
age of the opportunity afforded
them to view the new building,
all having pronounced it a thing
of beauty and a model of con-
venience.
Besides the completion of the
dining hall and dormitory, many
other Improvements have been
made at the college during the
past summer. The steam heat
ing system mas been overhauled,
additional boilers have been in
stalled and a number Of bath
rooms have been added. Form
erly the bathing facilities of the
college were somewhat limited,
but there are now bath rooms on
every floor of all the different
dormatories, and a student can
at any time enjoy the luxury of
a bath without journeying any
great distance from her sleeping
apartment.
The public schools, as well as
the college, are keeping abreast
of the times, and Improvement is
the watch-word of the day. Car
penters and painters have during
the summer been busy at Frank
lin Academy. and when that
building is thrown open Monday
it will present a neat and at
tiactive appearance. The walls |
have been freshly kalsomined
and the interior woodwork re-
painted, while there have been
alterations in the chapel that
serve to improve the appearance
as well increase the seating ca
pacity of that apartment.
Columbus is justly proud of
her educational institutions, and
extends a royal welcome to the
many teachers and pupils who
will arrive this week for the pur-
bose Of resuming their school
luties.
No public exercises will mark
