Prescott Public
 Schools Open
Opening Exercises at the Court House. Which Was Filled With Patrons and Pups---Interesting Talks by Mem
 bers of the Board Large Enrolment.

An unusual interest was mani fested in the opening of our pub lie schools Monday morning. The public 'exercises were held at the court house and the build ing was taxed to its full capacity to accomodate the immense crowd that had gathered to show interest in the work.
 Promptly at 9:30 o'clock. Rev. J. 7. Williams, pastor of the Presbyterian church, opened with scripture reading and prayer.
 Several talks followed, the first being an address by Hon. II. B. Mckenzie, president of the board, His speech was along practical lines, and he defended vocational training, which is to- day the fundamental principle of school life. A boy or girl should be given the kind of edu- cation that will best fit him or her for the life duty 10 which they are by nature peculiarly suited.
 Hon. J. 0, A. Bush, another member of the board, followed Mir, Mckenzie. Being former school teacher himself, ne gaze some wholesome advice to the teachers 8s well the ,qpils. Mir. Bush's first contention vas absolute obedience on the part of the pupil, and his admouition to the teachers vas the develop ment of the enid mentally m0.- ally and physically. He said that 10 develop the moral alone made a fanatic of tie pupil. To develop the mauta. alone made an inhde of him and to develop the menta and moral combined,

to the neglect of the phy sical, made an invalid of him. It took all three, contended Mir. Bush, to make a we'll balanced, moral and healthy child.
 Hon. c. c. Hamby, an ex- member of the board, whose in- terest in school work by reason of his 20 years on the school board, is still a matter of vital importance to him, gave some splendid advice to both teacher and pupil. His remarks were practicable, and every child in the audience knew exactly what he was talking about. Mr. Ham, by's interest in school work has not lessened by his withdrawal from the school board.
 Mir. Mckenzie then introduced to the audience and to the school Prof. Nj. 5. Smith, Jr., the new principal of the Grammar school and Miss Ruth Arnold. the new teacher of Latin and History in the High School.
 Prof. Hirst closed the talks by a few remarks that were both timely and highly endorsed. He urged full wcr1 by the School Improvement Association, anu expressed an appreciation of th' out-of-toWn interest as shown b the number of rural pupils that had made application for enroll maut.

AN APPEAL

We wish to impress upon our patrons that quite a number are in arrears on their subscription to the Picayune, and further more, at the preSenot price ot paper we are not able to wait much longer for you to come in and settle up. Now, friends, this is only a dollar or two as far as you are concerned, but in the agregate 1t means much to us. We are owing bills that must be paid, and what if we did not owe one cent and had money in the bank, you owe it to us and it is ours and we should have 1t. It does not pay us to put man Tn the field to collect these amounts, then why not save us that un- necessary expence and bring or send 1t in. We trust that you will heartily respond to this call. We may have to raise the price of our paper, many are doing 1t all over the country and it looks very much like we will have to follow suit, so pay up now be- fore We do have to make the raise. Cotton is a good price and everybody seems to be happy but the editor, and his face is as long as your arm, now come on and make him happy too.
