ter that his own daughter took lessons four years under Miss Rus

as a violnist. She is equally successful in teaching the piano, and
is whhal a devout christian of the highest type" She was trained
in Chicago. Miss Beard will teach voice. She is also a graduate in
music and has had splendid success n a Southern college for the

Gates her field and her preparation. Her teaching is commended

With such a corps of teachers in our own Grenada College, it
seems folly for our citizens to send their daughters to distant and
expensive schools. Local pride and loyalty to home should appeal.
to our people in behalf of Grenada College; besides. the best is Of
fered there.
