the part year. . s

Wdwin. School MiMgement, Brook* Normal Methods,
Ranb'a Methods of Teaching, etc.

The time has come when the public realize that teaching is
a profeeafon, and (BOM entering it must be qualified. A call
to teach is a call to prepare to teach. The old schoolmaster
was content with knowledge of the "three R's"; the ideal
modern teacher, beaidea these, must study the "three M'<
Mind, Matter, and Method".

COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT.

This course of study embraces Hook-Keeping, Commercial
Arithmetic, Baaineaa Correspondence, and Penmanship. Drills
will also he given in Commercial Law and Civil Government.
type-writing and stenography will be taught, with moder-
ate charges, to those who may desire a knowledge of these
subjects, and who have leisure to devote to them.

It is intended to make this department one of eminent utility.
The time has come when our girls as well as boys should
have a practical business education. Many lucrative and hon-
orable positions are open to women qualified to fill them ;

LaOrangt Femah College.

besides, every housekeeper should know how to keep a correct
account Of her income and expense*.

A Mice. --tul business man. referring to this "new departure",
wrote us last year, "I ID) glad to see you have a commercial
department. Our women know Tory little about the every.
.lav business affairs of life. Many graduate* oan work out
difficult problems, ami read Latin and French; hut how

many can make out a post-ofhoe money order, or tell the
difference hetween a .Iraft ami a check? You are on the

right line: teach your trirls business." This department ii

not an experiment, but has been in successful operation for

the past three years. During the present ---ion twenty-

even young ladies completed the course. As to the utility

Of this department, and the character of work .lone, sec else-
where the report of Visiting Committee from North Georgia

Conference, ami also the report of E xa m inin g Committee from
Board of Trustees.

MUSIC DEPARTMENT.
This department offers, to those desiring it, a thorough

curse in theorv. vocal and instrumental music. The teaelier>
in charge are eminently qualified for their respective positions,

baring had advantage* of the best Conservatory Muting. The
methods employed are those used by the besl instructor! of

American and European Conservatories. A- a proof pf the

success of this department, we mention the fact that the pres-
ent music class numbers one hundred and twenty-seven-i
.rain of over fifty-six per cent, in one year.
* We invite vour attention to the graded courses of study
given below. Th.' time required by each student to complete

a full course in any branch of music, and to obtain a diploma.
will be determined by her previous attainment-, and by the
rate of progress as dependent on her talent and industry.

The branches taught are the following:
I. THEORY.

Under theory is included notation, thorough-bass, har-

'l'"'l to read, under the teacher's direction, the biographies
of the masters, and other musical literature.

III. PIANO-FORTE,

Particular attention u paid to technique throughout the entire
course. Pupils are first taught to play slowly, in order to
Ittau correct position and touch. Sapid% increases with
increasing atreagtfa and flexibility, until the" desired tempo u

The pwiirfiu Old Italian method is used. Correct
breathing is regarded as the basis of good tone as

well as of good health. A complete coaree of bieatliingia.
therefore, given in connection with voire culture. Pupili m

it should he taught. At each Commencement the pupils, under
th, direction of the head of the department, with the aaattt
ance of the chorus class, give tOtat -tandard light opera.

ART DEPARTMENT.

This department is directed by an accomplished artist who
has devoted vears to the study of art in its various hranches,
and who maka to cultivate in the pupil a love of the study, as
well as to impart technical knowledge. Mi-s Kincaid, who
has had charge of this department for the past three years,
is an artist of recognized ability, her crayon work being
unsurpassed in the South.

The course includes the following : Drawing, light and
shade, still life, crayon, pastel, landscape, marine, china deco-
ration. repOttaaa, and portraiture in oil and crayon. This de-
partment offers unsurpassed advantages in crayon portraiture.

The Art Hall is commodious, well lighted, and admirably
adapted to its uses.

MODERN LANGUAGES.

German, French, and Spanish are taught by competent in-
structors. Abort on,. -half of the Western Continent speak
tlie Spanish language. Since the United States Lj now in very
close religious and coinnicrcial relations with Mexico, a know-
ledge of Spanish is a desideratum. We have incorporated the
last Banted atodj in our course, and it is taught by one who
has made this language a specialty.

In t'u- modem Langaagw the celebrated Meieterachaft
System is need. By mean* of thin method, pupils, in a very
short time, acquire practical, ipeaking knowledge of the Ian-
guage studied.

IMPORTANT FEATURES.

Special attention is given to letter-writing, punctuation, pa*
maaahip, boaineaa forma, orthography, pbonke, and Engntfa
composition. Our vocal muaic i- not mere practice for com-

vanced classes will here freqnenl reriewa In all the elementary
branches, baaidea drills in orthography.

CHARACTER OF INSTIUVTIOX.

The teachers are all liberally educated, eiithu-ia-tie, and
experienced. Their vacations are not spent in mere idle
recreation, hut in studying matter and methods, thereby battel
preparing themselves for their special work. The teaching k

thorough and practical; hold to adopt all modern bookaand

metl -that are approved, equally hold to hold fast to the
old that have been found good. The course of instruction is
oumulaHvt, not Atemrdtng the lower elementary branekei
when advancing to the higher* hut incorporating and studying
them throughout the entire course.

ROUTINE <>F STUDY AND RECITATION.

Pupils are rarely confined more than an tone* at a time in
study and recitation. Short, ttaUd interval- for recreation
and physical training are incorporated in the schedule of daily
duty. ' Daily gymnastic exerdaea, under the direction of a
competent teach'er. aiv required of eachpui.il. This iyeta

they entered.

SITUATION.

The College occupies a most magnificent site, eight hundred
feet above sea-level. College Hill Is seventy-five feet higher
than railroad depot, affording a co mm a nding view of -ur-
ronndkg country, as far as the eye can reach. Being situated
one-half mile from husiness center of town, the college affords
a quiet, beautiful retreat, where teachers and pupils board
together, and constitute one family. The late Dr. Sears,
agent of the Peabody Fund, said of the situation, that he had
traveled extensively in Europe and America, visiting ichooh
and colleges, but had never seen one equal to this for t>eauty
and adaptation.

affording perfect ventilation. Upon it there are six roo&u
devoted to recitation, laboratory, and mnaeum. On the aecond
loor are located the chapel and a complete arrangement of Music
I room*, convenient to the Chapel, and admirably situated for
instruction and practice. The Art. Society, and library rooms
occupy the third Boor.

New desks, maps, charta, and other instrumentalities have
lately been furniahed, and the college buildings will soon be
much improved and ornaawnted

THE COLLEGE CHAPEL.

The Chapel ia 60x100 feet, with a capacity for 1,500 persons.
It is beautifully lighted by large windows, and has four en-
trances, It has Keen pronounced, by distinguished visitors, to

M the finest audience room in the South.

THE COLLEGE HOME.

The College Home is conveniently situated near the college.
During the past year, at an outlay of nearly 110,000, it has
been enlarged to more than doable its former capacity, giving
us ample accommodation for more than a hundred board-
ers. The boarding department is now a handsome briek
betiding, 50x160 feet, two atories high at one end and three

at the other. It contains thirty room* for boarders, par.
bra, reading-room, kitchen, rtore-room, etc, and a Dining
Hall 80x60 feet. Each story of the building ha* a ball run.
Ding it entire length, thua affording ample ventilation and
easy escape m oaae of tire. The rooma for boarderi arc
eighteen feel square, and are irell lighted by two or mors
large windows. The thickness of the vails of the building is
a protection against the extremes of 1 1 *-* t and cold, and young
ladies find their rooms comfortable in erery season. Water-
works and other conveniences will be supplied l>y beginning
of the coining session.

GROWTH AND OUTLOOK.

Prospects for the ooming session are cheering. The College
is steadily increasing in numbers and prosperity. Under the
present management, it began three years ago with al>out a
half dozen boarders ami half a hundred pupils. Its instruc-
tion and management hare been endorsed, daring the third
year, by a local patronage of ninety-five pupils, representing
every religions denomination of the vicinity. Its inerea*in<r
popularity abroad is attested by the fact that, beginning hi
first year with six boarding pupils, it ended its third with
eighty-four. In l**ti, enrolling 104, it shows in 1888 an at-
tendance of 1 7i a gain of seventy-two per cent. This growth
has been attained not by endowments and many titled profes-
sors, but by the honest, thorough work done by it^ profes-
sional teachers. This phenomena] growth forced upon the
judgment of the trustees the necessity of enlarging the
boarding department. They further endoT the present admin-
istration by committing the College to their management for a
period of twenty years. This trust, however, in no way im-
pairs their official authority, nor disturbs the relation of the
College to the Conference.

ALUMNA

The Alumna? of the College hold an annual meeting "luring
Commencement to revive the associations of the past and con-
tribute, as far as possible, to the prosperity of the Alma Mater.

Further contributions from friends are earnestly solicited, and
will be duly acknowledged

LITKKARV SOCIETIES.

The Iranian and Mczzofaritian Societies are accomplishing
much for the College. These two societies will meet in their
respective halls cadi Saturday forenoon, instead of on Friday
afternoon as heretofore. Their exercises will consist of read-
in--, recitations, original laa aja , criti raanw, e tc , in which all of
the meenben take part. Each society has the nucleus of a
good library. Among the list of books of reference, pupils
have access to four encyclopedias and an equal number of un-
abridged dictionaries. Much time and attention will be given
to building up these libraries, which will prove valuable aux-
iliaries to a finished education. Money or books contributed
to these libraries will be gratefully received and acknowledged.

STUDIES OF BOARDERS.

Boarding pupils study in the afternoon and two hours after
tea. under the c?re of "\ teacher. No desultory or aimless study
is allowed. This provision really doubles the advantages
which boarding pupils possess over those who are not inmates

8EWING CLUB.

During die past session, sewing ohib was organised among
the boarding pupils. This clnbmeton Saturdays, and received
instruction in plain and oniamental sewtog, under the diree-
tion of Lady Principal. This experiment bas been so gratify-
ing in its results that we intend, for next session, to place a
specialist in charge of Una department. Regular lo s s oni will
in- given in plain and ornamental sewing, cutting, fitting, dress-
making, etc.

NEATNESS ORDER DRE88.

Even- effort is made to secure the ntmost neatness and order

on the part of the young ladies, in the arrangement and care
of their rooms, clothing, and persona

The Matron inspects the rooms of boarding pupils daily, and
notes all instances of disorder, negligence, or untidiness.

Every effort is made to secure such plainness and simplicity
in the style of dressing as is consistent with sound economy
and good taste.

UNIFORM.

For the sake of economy, and to prevent any discontent
arising from disparity in dress, we have adopted a uniform,
which shall be worn on Sundays, and such other occasion- Si
the Lady Principal may p roscri be. For fall and winter this
will he of gray dress flannel, medium shade, with hat to match.
The uniform for spring and summer will be selected and an-
nounced later.

places in society all profess to 1* the children of God.

HEALTH AND PHYSICAL TRAINING

In no private household in there employed clo!er or more
intelligent supervision over the inmate! than i! here exercised
over the health of the Iwarding pupils. The slightest ailments
are prompt ly treated. In serious eases, the best medical advice
is secured and competent nurses provided. < %oiet of physi-

where made known to the President, is serupuously respected.
All the conditions of proper sanitation are carefully observed.
Day pupils are not allowed to expcee their health. Little
children are provided with play-room within doors during the
inclement winter weather. The regular drill in calisthenics,
with dumb-bells, wands, anil rings, and in f ree gymnastics, aids
in promoting and maintaining sound health, muscular develop-
ment, and graceful carriage.

DOMESTIC AKKAXUEMENTS.

The sleeping apartments of the College are accommodated
each to four inmates. The heavy articles of iurniture, such
as bedsteads, washstands, tallies, wardrobes, and chairs, are

Young ladies boarding In the Institution are not allowed to
open account- at store*, or oontracl any debts. All Decenary
shopping ia attended to for them, either hy *ome of the officers

or their ladies. No request from parents to allow their daugh-
ters to do shopping for themselves, or for any one else, will lie
complied with.

All purchases are made for cnx/i, which must, for this pur-
pose, k- deposited with tome member of the Faculty.

Boarders are not allowed to keep money in their rooms,

The Faculty, their families, and the boarding pupils, all par-
take at the aanu table, ami constitute one large family, in
which the supervision and care of the pupils devolve upon the
President, assisted by his associates. The harmonious and
kindly feeling thus generated obviates the necessity of an ex-
ccssiveh rigorous discipline. Confidence between pupilsand
teachers is invited and secured.

THE GOVERNMENT

Is mild hut firm. The pupil is taught to respect herself, and
to maintain her self-respect and the respect of those around
her, by observing the proprieties of life in all her conduct, ami
in her intercourse with her fellow-pupils and instructors. The
effect is first to establish good principle*, and then govern her
bv teaching her to govern herself in accordance with tboM
principles. Such an esprit il> corps is thus secured as renders
rigid discipline rarely necessary.

FOB PATRONS.

Whenever a pupil is entered i College, the Facultv con-
fer that an implied contract it made between themselves and
the patron, by wind, the latter is as dumb hound to continue
the papU in College until the does o4 the term, as the Faculty
are bound to inetract her for that time. Those who take away
their daughter! for a few .lays, without weighty reasons for
nob atnenee, not only impair the scholarship of "their dangb-
term, but impose niweeeary trouble upon the Faculty, and in-
troduce a reetleeanea in the minds of all, very unfavorable to
-tudy.

Parents who, for any cause, desire their daughters to come
home, should Brat communicate with the President on the sub-
ject, and specific instructions as to the time and manner of
baring should, in every case, be tent to him.

Three reports per annum of each pupil's standing in her
studies, attendance, and deportment in every respect, will be
nit t,, her parent or guardian. All are required to pass ap-
prove.! examinations in the studies which they pursue. These
examinations are conducted in writing, and under such regula-
tions m to afford a just criterion of the scholarship of each

HISTORICAL BKETCH.

In 1888, this Lnetitution commenced its work under the nam :
of LaQrange Female Academy. It- tir-t teacher of note m
Bar. Thomas Btanley, Methodist minuter. He taught sue
oessfully during 1888-6, when death removed him from his I
loved employment. After his death, the school was taught
by his wife, Mrs. Ellen Stanley, end, after her, by Mr. John
Park, until 1842. Daring that year, Mr. Joseph T. Montgom-
ery secured the Academy from the Board of Trustee* In I
January 1848, he took charge of the institution. beginnia| I
with thirteen pupils. In leas than two years the school bad
grown beyond a hundred, and continued to Increase rapidly in
numbers. The idea of an institution of high grade was eon
ceived. Application was mnda far a charter, and LaGtaap
Female Institute was organised with increased facilities sal
extended charter privileges, [n 1846, the first three graduate]

commenced the roster of alumna", whose names now reachfn
up into the bond* ds. Beaidas thoee who completed the ear-
rioulum, received their diplomas, and had thoirnamas record*

as children of this Alma Mater, hundreds of others, receirinj
here wholesome instruction and fit preparation for after Inc.
have gone forth to bless the world.

The College continuing to grow, it was deemed necessary to
increase its teaching facilities, and to amend its charter privi-
leges. On Julv 4, 1861, the corner-stone of the old La-
Grange Female College was laid with due ceremonies by the
Masonic fraternity of this place, and in June or July, 1852,
the first class was graduated in the new chapel. Mr. 3. T.
Montgomery had associated with him his brother. Mr. Hugh
B T Montgomery, and later Rev. T. F. Montgomery.

Below It given list of tl.eprcsid<mtsof the institution since
1866, the year In which the College wai told to the Confer-
ence. Rev. W. (i. Connor was president from January 1
1867 to July 1, 1868. Dr. \Y. J. Bennett was in charge
from September, 1868 to December, 1868. Rer. W.A. Hani-.
being elected to fill Dr. Saenett'a place, entered immediately
apon the duties of bieoAoe, and oondueted the college with
great success until March 28, 1880, When the building waa
burned, after concert bad been (riven in it. The citizens of

LaGrange promptly met ami subscribed *Ki to have it

rebuilt The contract was let and the walls went up, but.
tb work k'ing interrupted by the war, the roof was never
put on, and the walls became unsafe.

In July I860, President Harris retiring, Rev. G. J. Pearce
was elected to the presidency, and appointed financial agent
for the < !ouege He acted in this double official capacity until
the winter of 1868, when the exercises of the College were
impended on account of the war. From that date until 1866,
the College was supported mainly by local patronage, and
conducted more as a school than as a college. In 1866, its
reorganization began under the presidency of Rev. Mr. Arm-
strong. The patronage soon dwindled so in numbers, that the
College, for a time, was committed to the charge of Mrs. Curt-
ri;_dit and .Mrs. Montgomery.

In December, 1887, the Georgia Annual Conference, at ita
session in Augusta, Ga, tendered the college property to At
local Board of Trustees, on condition thai they would aenme
and liquidate all ita liabilities. During the war, the buildinga
of the Southern Female College had alao been destroyed by
tire. Sn at the clone of the war, LaGrange, after all her rim.
tributiona of thought, patronage, and money to proper facilities
for higher female education, found herself without a finished
college building. The boarding hotue of the LaGrange Female
College was uaed for teaching purposes, and the patronage of

both institutions was united and taught in that house, under
the presidency of the late Pre*. l.F. CoX. After two years suc-
cessful management, Mr. COS retired and addressed himself to
the rebuilding of the Southern Female College, ami Dr. Mor-
gan Callaway was elected president. Under his administration,
four young ladies graduated in 1X71. In December, 1x71, I)r.
Callaway resigned, and Rev. F. I'. Birch was elected to till his
place. In 1*7'J, President Birch, <>n account of failing health,
resigned, and Mr. J.T. Johnson presided from November, \*~,-l
to December. 1*74. Rev. .1. K. Mayson then took the College
in hand, ami, by indefatigable labors, finished the building still
incomplete. CpOB his resignation. Dr. J. W. Heidt succeeded
to the presidency, and continued in office until July, 1**5, when
he tendered his resignation.

Rufua W. Smith, then President of Dalton Female College,
was elected to succeed him. At the end of his second year,'
June, 1**7, on account of the need of more boarding room ami
better teaching facilities, the trustees raised over eight thou-
sand dollars, which has been appropriated to those needs.
They also leased the buildings to present incumbent for a
period of twenty years. The collegiate year ending June 6,
L888, finds the College with a patronage of one hundred and
seventy-nine pupils, eighty-four boarders, and one hundred
and twenty-seven music pupils. The thorough work, rapid
growth, and wide-spread popularity of the College promise
still better results during the scholastic year 1888-89.
