Hazel (Ky.) Industrial Academy

By THOS. D. ROWE.

This school began its work Wednesday, September 23, entering upon its seventh year with the largest enrolment it has ever had. The school is but in its infancy as far as buildings and appliances are concerned. This is due to a lack of funds, and a desire on the part of the management to avoid debt. The school Home accommodates twenty-two. Until this year, the parlor has been used as a schoolroom, but it was found that we could not carry on the work of the school in the Home, and having no other building, we purchased a large tent, and fitted it for school purposes. It is an experiment, but we are hoping that the weather will not be so severe as to cause us to discontinue it.

Our work embraces grades four to eleven. This year we have several students who will finish their work with us, and enter the school at Graysville another year.

The Lord has blessed us this year with an excellent class of students, and as teachers we feel that great opportunities are before us. THOS. D. ROWE.
