The aim of the educational work here is, in a word, to fit our students for practical life and to instruct in the art of teaching. A course of six years, after that of our primary grade, completes the regular normal course. In addition to a long and thorough drill in the more common and elementary branches, this course requires three terms each of United States history, Latin and algebra, two each of philosophy and geometry, one of physiology, natural history and science of government and four terms of Bible study. A small one-story house neatly finished off with Southern pine from ceiled roof to wainscoting is reserved for the primary school where, in limited numbers, children from the plantations around are permitted to attend. The chief object here is to furnish a model school for our normal classes and a place where they can both learn by observation and practice for themselves under an experienced teacher who comes from the North expressly to have charge of this room. Besides this teacher our corps of instructors is seven strong, including one who is almost exclusively music teacher.
