The Western Slope Academy

By A. M. Woodall

The Western Slope Academy, at Palisade, Colo., opened Wednesday, October 2, with the largest attendance in the history of the school.

This is the fourth year of the academy, and heretofore there have been only two teachers, but the school has grown until it was necessary to have another room added, and this year we have three teachers, and they carry from the primary grades up to the tenth.

We have an older, more settled class of students than we have ever had before, and they seem to consider that the Lord calls them to make a special preparation as quickly as possible, in order that they may have a part in carrying this message to the world in this generation. Our enrolment is sixty, and more will come later.

We have a class in Christian education, and several of our students are taking preparatory work to teach church-schools next year. Our object is to make our academy a true training-school for the young people, and we ask your prayers that the Lord may bless us, and that our institution may be all that the Lord desires that it should be.
