WILUAMSBURG

INSTITUTE.

LOCATION. The Institute is located in Williamsburj1, a thriving town, of more thin 2,000 inhabitants, siluated on the Cumberland River and ,L. & 1ST. R R., and is acces^able from all points.

Being a mountain town, and

surrounded by the everlasting mountains as Jerusalem of old,it is a great health resort both summer and winter. The pure water and fresh air make it a very healthy pla-e, especiallj' for ihose who suffer from weak lung-* and bronchital diseases. That the morals of the town are good, no one will question, whi'n it is known we have four prospering churches, and that Pro'iibitio-i prevails in both town a'id county and is put into force by the good people.

Patents, in thinking about seailing

their children off to school, should remembe 1 that Williamsburg is frej from whiskey and mauy other tempiatious which load young me^i astray. Children coming to this school are surrounded by a mor.-il and religious iitmo.=phere.

To be admitted into the Institute, the applicant must furnish satisiactory.evidence of good moral character. The school is open to both sexes While it is HIGHLY DESIKAHLE that students enter at the opening of the session, yet one m:iy enter at an}- time and take up such studies as will be most advantageous. Students are allowed to select and all ages.

their own studies with the advice and consent of the faculty.

WILL1AMSBDRG INSTITUTE.

EXAMINATIONS. Examinations are of two kinds, vi/ : 1st. Daily Examinations in class, which are searching and thorough, and the success of the student is noted according to a certain numerical rule, and this report will be preserved in the Archieves of the Institute,-

2nd. WRITTEN EXAMINATIONS near close of each half session. Much stress is laid upon these written examinations as they will be thorough tests of the students' knowledge in the respective studies. No one is allowed to absent himself or herself from these examinations withThe papers of each will be carefully graded according to a certain numerical rule, nnd result preserved. The standing of every pupil will be read out at end of each half session, and parents

Two kinds of honors are used to stimulate students: one ascertained at the end of each MONTH, called the "Roi.L OF MERIT"; the other known at the close of the session, known as the Roll of Honor.

Deportment must not be below .90 per cent. 5. Punctuality must not be less than .90 per cent.

SESSION * AND + EXPENSES-

There is one session of about forty weeks, beginingthe first Tuesday in September and closing the second Friday in June. One week's vacation during Christmas Holidays. Tuition in Collefre Course, $30.00, per session; one half IN ADVANCE, the remainder the second Monday in January that is $3.00, per month. Tuition in Normal Course, $20.00, per session or $2.00, per month, one half in advance, the remainder second Monday in January, T-,ition in Preparatory Department $1.50, per month payable monthly IN ADVANCE. Tuition in Primary Department $1.00, per month piyable monthly in tidvance. The expenses are much cheaper than most Colleges, but we have done so that no one may bedeprived of the advantages ofa ftr-t-cbies education. No money refunded except in ease of protracted sickness. No incidental lees Books can be procured through Prof. Johnson at less than wholesale prices, thus students are enabled to get their books at greatly reduced prices, which is no small item in going tÂť school. Board can be had at from $2.00, toS2.50, per week in private families, including lights and fuel. A number of students can rent rooms together and hoard themselves for less than -SI.00, per wei-k. Every effort will be put forward to have a boarding hall ready by September, where students can board very cheap. Piire ite, who have childre i to educate, HIV urged to move their families here, buy property and senil them to school. Several are doing that this year and k'iey say ii \<&ys them. LOTS AND HOUSES I-OR SALE CHEAP. So great is the need of education in this country that parents should be willing to nwke an}- sacrifice to have their children educated. The age has passed away when ignorant men and women can rise to eminence. 'WE MUST EDUCATE OU WE MUST PERISH."

\VILLIAMSBHKG INSTITUTE.
