Healdsburg College Notes.

THE college year opened, according to announcement, Aug. 5, with a good general attendance. We are glad to see so many familiar faces among our students, and to resume the labor and pleasant associations of another college year.
The number at the Students' Home is now double that at the opening one year ago. Our family at that time numbered sixteen; it is now thirty-two. Our attendance would be much larger still were it not that the camp-meeting, to be held at Oakland, is so near at hand. We hear from many that expected to be present at the beginning who are now waiting until after that meeting. The work of preparation for that occasion demands their assistance, and to be able to leave home accompanied by their parents is a consideration that is gratifying, to say the least.
The students are cheerful and enter upon their work with earnestness. The teachers also have never been of better courage at the beginning of a year than now. They already see indications of greatly increased prosperity for the college during the coming year, and expect a special blessing of the Lord upon their labors. S. BROWNSBERGER.
