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 satisiac-

tory.evidence of good moral character. The school is open to both sexes

and all ages. 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

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

m

WILL1AMSBDRG INSTITUTE. II

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 with­

out consent of teacher. The papers of each will be carefully graded ac­

cording 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

furnished with report of same.

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.

The following are the conditions for place on the ROLL OK MERIT;

1. Average class standing must be .85 per cent, or more. 2. It must

not fall below .75 in any single study. 3. Deportment must not be below

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

For ROLL or HONOR, the same must he true of his session standing

and written examination must not full below .85 per cent. All on Roll

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.

T-,ition in Preparatory Department $1.50, per month payable monthly IN ADVANCE.

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 t» 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 fami­ lies 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.

DISCIPLINE.
