Ben Hill County's Schools

Whilst we all know that We
have a fine system of country
schools, still it is always matter
OF pride to have others see and
appreciate them. During his
visit to the city as delegate to
the Baptist convention, Sup. w.
N. Lanier of Millen took occasion
to visit our schools in the country
and having himself been teach
er all of his life and Sup. of
Public instruction for Jenkins
county for the past eight years,
his tlattering statement about
our schools is of more than ordi-
nary value. Mr., Lanier was full
of praise for the Ashton High
school, the Lynnwood and Roa-
noke schools and the splendid
school at the cotton factory.
The equipment of these schools,
but especially the course of study
and the system of grading ap-
pealed to this educator and since
he travels all over the State and
is we'll acquainted with the coun-
try school systems of a great
many counties, his statement
that Ben Hill surpasses any in
equipment, buildings and eff
cheney of any strictly rural
schools under his observation is
especially appreciated.

err, Mr.. w. Blanchard Moore of
Chicago to give his interesting
lecture on Palestine in the First

ing commencing at 1870. This
free lecture will introduce Mr..
