Battle Creek (Mich.) Industrial Academy

By Clifford A. Russell

THE Battle Creek Industrial Academy opened for the year 1909-10, September 13, with an attendance of one hundred. This has been increased to one hundred eleven.
Upon invitation, many of the patrons and friends of the school attended the opening exercises. An earnest prayer was offered by Elder G. W. Amadon, who also made a few well-chosen remarks. Brother J. Q. Foy spoke of his interest and confidence in the cause of Christian education. Mrs. Ella King-Sanders spoke feelingly of the uppermost desire in her heart, that of seeing every student dedicating his life to God for service. The principal followed, outlining in a general way the policy of the school.
This school is carrying eleven grades of work this year. Our industrial lines embrace woodwork, sewing, and domestic science.
The outlook before us is bright, and our settled purpose is to make the school a credit to the denomination.
