Tho ct at o Inspectors as sure me that our school rank ninon'.. I ho best. Our high school is merit ed as a elnsa A by tho Southern Asso ciation or Colleges and tho pupi.s from our eleventh grade aro aecepted without examination by hil of i'.ie i au thorn colleges and many of those further north. I have kept a close watch on thc hoy:: and girls sent to those collcg's ! aud nearly all casos tho rocords made by thom have been good. Indeed 1 think of no case of a pupil who. hav ing completed our eloventh gnuie, and having entered college 'boa fail ed of graduation. Ono. perhaps more? than one, has changed colleges during tho course, but all, I think, havo graduated. With all thLs, however, thero are many directions in which our Bc-aoo's may be. nay moat emphatically ought #A I... 'inproved. Tho salaries wo pay teachers nie invariably lower than tlioso whHh teachers of otninl ability can obtain claowhere.
