South Lancaster Academy
By Frederick Griggs
SOUTH LANCASTER ACADEMY is not to be sold. The matter was thought of and considered at the time of the sale of the sanitarium; but the way did not seem clear to sell the school. Many of our people have obtained the idea that the school was to be moved with the sanitarium; and for fear that this idea might affect the attendance at the school, I take this means of saying that the school is not to be sold. We are planning to have a most excellent school at South Lancaster. I wish to call special attention again to the plans which are being laid for our commercial work. We are changing some of the rooms in the academy building, so that they will be adapted to this work, and all the work in this department will be more effective. I wish also to call attention to the church-school work and the need of teachers. It now looks as though we should not have teachers enough for the schools that plan to open this year. Our young people who have any gift or calling in the direction of teaching should consider this work. Since my connection with the academy, the outlook for the school was never more encouraging. It is not too late to plan to attend the school. Let all come who should. FREDERICK GRIGGS.
