School at Cabanas, Cuba
By Editor
A report from Brother S. H. Carnahan, located with the school at Cabanas, San Claudio Colony, Cuba, states that their new school is now under operation. The first building which they erected was leveled to the ground by a tornado in last July, but the material of that was used for the constructing of another schoolroom a little smaller but more substantial. That, however, was sorely tried by a cyclone in October. The opening of the school was therefore put off until November 1, opening with seven pupils, two of whom were Cabanoes. The attendance since that time has increased to fourteen, half of whom are natives. The room is crowded, and attendance is still increasing. They find that there are those who are anxious to send their children and pay for the instruction rather than to send them to the public schools. Calls come in for the teaching of English and music in the town. He also tells us that vegetables do splendidly there and bring good prices, and grow much better from seed than they do in the States. So any of our people who can send seeds — for as seeds they can be sent cheaply if so marked — would confer benefit upon the school. Send to the address as given above. The postage is the same as in the United States.
