\ N MEN.
LIEUTENANT MADRY WILL REMAIN

Noted-Each Teacher to Have
Charge of His Own Delinquents
and Go Over Work Together.
TIC the Public:
have been asked by the editor OF
The Herald to give him statement
for publication regarding the work
fer next year at the Columbia Militia
ny Academy. ! gladly do SO, because
there being a certain amount OF
change in the method of the work,
ii is but fair that the public who will
patronize the school should know it.
AS is known to most, the faculty
for next year will be almost entirely
a new one believe it will be the
strongest we have had in the history
of the school, A word about the va
rious members will be well, though
II would take a larger space space
than is allowed for this article to
print the testimonials of any one
man.
The mathematics instructor is Mr..
c. T. Martin, of Mobile, Ala. Mr..
Martin graduated the past June from
The Vanderbilt University in the en-
cheering department, and comes
with the highest recommendations
both as to scholarship and as to
character. He is not unknown to
the students of the Academy, as he
supplied Maj. McGehee's place both
as teacher and coach last fall when
the latter was away on his wedding
trip. Mr.. Martin has the distinction
of having paid his own way through
college, having been private secre-
tary of DIR. F. w. Moore, dean of the
academic department. He has had
large athletic training, having been
on the football and basketball teams
for several years. He has also had
experience in teaching. He will be
faculty director Of athletics.
The instructor in English is Mr..
N. d. Frazier, graduate Of the Pea
body College for Teachers, and a
man of long and successful expert
ence as teacher. During the past
year the Y. M. c. A., Of Nashville,
chose Mr. Frazier from among a
large number of applicants over the
state, to be at the head one one Of
their departments OF educational
work. This speaks both for Mr.. Fra
zier's ability and as to his character.
A letter from one of the directors at
Nashville assured me that they de-
sired very much to retain Mr.. Fra
zier with them there.
The Instructor is latin is Mr. w.
r Seat, a graduate and graduate stu
dent from Cumberland University.
Mr.. Seat has taught for three years
most successfully, for two years hav-
ing been principal of the Checotah
High School, Checotah, Okla. | have
seen a letter from the president Of
the board of trustees of that school
assuring Mr.. Seat that he would be
unanimously reelected to the posi-
ton if he would accept it. 1t is only
his preference for Tennessee that
caused him to refuse, as the place
there is a very remunerative one.
Mr.. Seat will also be instructor in
French.
The instructor is history and chem
lstry is Mr.. R. " Erwin, Of Wander
Tilt and the University of North Car
Gina. Mr.. Erwin taught for several
years in the Massey school, and was
coach of the Massey baseball team
when It developed men like Collins
and others. Mr.. Massey assured me
that as teacher and handler of boys
he had never had man with him
that was the equal of Mr.. Erwin In
addition to his good student records
in college, Mr.. Erwin made every
team in the University OF North Car
DINA last session. He will coach the
baseball team of the Academy and
assist in the other athletic work.
Lieut. Madry will still instruct in
bookkeeping, and will add to this de-
partment commercial arithmetic
end a reading course in commercial
law. This work will be confined to
the junior and senior classes exclu-
sively. We hope to so arrange that
every graduate who goes out from
the Academy will have at least an ell
ementary knowledge of this eminent
ly practical subject. Lieut.. Madry is
q graduate of Falls Business College.
