Six lile Academy Principal Garner in Baptist Courier Sik Mile Academy opened Septefiber 4,:with .the largest attendance Itr its history. There are now twenty-eight students boarding in the dormi t oes, the highest number that the school has ever had, and they are a fine body of young men and young wumen. Every room at each dormitory is occupied but wepeen accommodate a few more loys and'girls. There are nine young men in school studying for the ministry. We emphasize the importance of hav ing high ideals, and of doing thorough work. While we welcome new students, we are more particulaar about their character and the quality of the work that they do than we are about the number enrolled. .Special emphasis is laid upon the religious life of the stu dents, and we try to develop them into earnest Christian workers. In the even in after supper a short prayer service is held in each dormitory, and everyone is encouraged to take part. These prayer services are always helpful, and sometimes they are very sweet and tender. The teachers and students co-operate in making this a real Christian home, and the pleasant spirit existing between them makes it seem like a large family circle. All of us try to make the dor mitories as pleasant and home-like as possible. Both teachers and students have entered upon their work with great enthusiasm, and the prospects are bright for the best session that the school has ever had. Resolutions of Appreciation Whereas, Rev. Lemuel E. Wiggins is now closing his third year as pastor of Grace Methodist Episcopal church at Pickens, S. C., and it is the desire of the membership of our church that some expression of our appreciation of the services of our beloved pastor be pub liclv made and recorded and that our love and esteem for him and his family be publicly expressed. Be it resolved by the membprshlp of Grace 'Methodist Episcopal church, South, Pickens, S C., in church confer ence assembled, That we are profoundly indebted to our beloved pastor for his three years of faithful and consecrated services amongst us. His life has been a beautiful example of loyal christian service and an inspiration to his people. He has lived and moved amongst us, visiting and ministering unto the sick, and offering cheering assurance from his own life's experiences to the discon solate. He has entered into all the ac tivities of the church, always ready to help and advise, and he has been found contributing his best endeavors to the advancement of the true interests of the communtty, irrespective of denomi natlorial affiliations, by helping to ad vance influences that moved for good and discouraging those that woried for evIl. He has been the exponent of the true service. We take this opportunity, also, of ex pressing our indebtedness to Mrs. Wig gins for her loving and consistent labors mour 'idst.
