Come at the Opening.

By S. Brownsberger

The beginning of a new college year is just at hand. Those who expect to attend at some time during the year should plan to come as early as possible. Those who are present at the opening, start with a great advantage over those who come in late. The former learn very much the first few days concerning the plan of their work for the term, the methods of instruction, how to study to the best advantage, and the true spirit of their school work, because the teachers give special instruction upon these topics at the opening, that all may start aright. We trust that all who have been undecided whether to come at the opening or later, will decide to come right away.
The new building is now ready to receive students. We have no doubt that it will prove to be a very pleasant home for the student family. Its management will be such as to secure to the students who occupy it, the very best returns for their time and expense.
During the coming year we expect a largely increased attendance over the past year. We are very desirous that our young men and women on this coast who are unacquainted with the merits of our school, should come and see for themselves the superior advantages for obtaining an education at Healdsburg College. All those who have attended the school are numbered among its best friends; and it is only necessary to inform the people concerning the nature and workings of the school, and the substantial good done those in attendance, to secure their friendship and sincere coöperation.
The entire expense to each student is reduced to the lowest figures, being but little more than half that in many other schools in California of the same grade, but with advantages far superior to theirs.
The College must do the work in connection with the cause that the Lord would have it do, and it must prove a success to that degree in which it meets the mind of the Spirit of God.
