Summer Normal School

The attendance at the Normal continúes to increase daily. The applicants for first and second grade cevtificates are working hard and if they fail to receive their certificates it will not be for lack of study on their part. Third grade teachers are devoting much time to arithmetic and grammar. The first and second grades ate taking advanced work in these branches aiso, tbus forming a large and attractive class. Supt. Chisholm, of Newberry, is the able and inergetic instructor in these branches. Algebra, physic and geometry are taught by Prof. Keeler. The teachers, under his able instruction are making rapid progress, and allseem toappreciate the easy manner in which Mr. Keeler handles his favorite subjects. Prof. J. A. Chisholm. commissioner of schools for Schooier aft county, will teach classes in autography and orthoepy. The class in civil government is composed of all the teachers in attendance. The attention is good, the instruction thorough, and the interest in this class and in U. S. history, shows conclusively that Supt. Cavanaugh is master of these branches and of the best methods of teaching them. As a review school for advanced teachers, the summer normal is just the place. Many of the best teachers in this and other counties are olassed among its students, some of whom are University graduates, and many others are graduates of high schools. That the school will be a grand success is a settled fact, and too much credit cannot be given the shrewd manager, Supt.
