Monday morning Prof. Anderson
started in on an extra month of school
for just the graduating class. There
was not enough money to have another
month of school for all grades, so a
subscription paper was started and
enough funds raised to continue this

these scholars have been in the same
studies for two terms past and could not
graduate owing to the shortness of
each school term, so that this last meth-
od was resorted to that these scholars
might finish there common school edu-
cation. Education must be had no
matter what the cost and we are always
advocating pushing it to a happy cli-
max.
