your inﬂuence to secure gifts from others? All sums procured in this way will
be credited to the class of which you are a member. Every class can do some-
thing, and before publishing our next circular we hope to have every class on
the roll.

About 840,000 of the $75,000 which the Board determined to raise has
been secured in cash and substantial pledges.

The past year was one of the most prosperous in the history of the Col-
lege. I’IUIIOIT)‘ College has no debts. She is liring, and intends to lire, strictly within
1101' income. For over ﬁfty years she has been doing :1 grand work for the Church
and the world, and size is here to slay!

In order to do more effective work the College needs two additional Profes-
sors and a Principal for the Preparatory Department. The means to provide
them is in the hands of the friends of Hanover, and we believe will he fur-
nished.

This cireular is sent. to the Alumni, to former students, and to other friends
of Hanover College. \Ve ask a careful consideration of its contents. “110 gives
tu'iec 10/10 gircs quickly.” If God has blessed you with wealth, can you use it
more efﬁciently for his service, than in building up (‘hristian Colleges? Such
colleges ever have been, and always will be, the strongest safeguards 0f the
Church. Give your money before your death for the object to which you
desire it to go, so as to have the enjoyment of seeing the Lord’s work prosper-
ing by your aid. Build for yourself, or for some relative, a monument at Han-
over, which will send your name, and your influence for good, around the
world and down the ages.

All money should be sent to Professor John F. laird, Hanover, Indiana,
who will acknowledge and give proper credit therefor.

DEAR SH

We are preparing another immense edition of the

UNIVERSAL CATALOGUE
for FREE DISTRIBUTION among SCHOOL PATRONS. Our
page is the size of the large circular enclosed, and one page
will hold all the important matter of your catalogue, thus
making you 50000 CATALOG-LIES.

Our circulation extends throughout every county of the
United States and Territories, and is confessedly the greatest
medium ever offered for advertising institutions of learning. If
your advertisement appeared in nothing else, you would soon
become well— known. 4’

Each copyb ooes right to people who have sons and daughters
to educate; we do not waste nine-tenths ol’ the advertising on
people who care nothing about it, as is the case with newspapers.

Please let us hear from you at once

Yours truly,
C. H. EVANS & CO.

FARMINGTON INSTITUTE-

This ﬂourishing school is located at the enterprising village of Farmington, Ky., nine
miles southeast of Mayﬁeld. Farmington is strictly a temperance town, situated in the
midst of a fertile and healthful section of country: and being only a village, is free from all
the pernicious inﬂuences and “catch pennies” of larger towns. This town is also noted for
the peace and harmony which exists among its citizens, and for the unity of the people in
regard to school-work

The Institute building is a ﬁne two-story ediﬁce, six rooms, containing two large halls,
each 65x25 feet, well furnished with everything necessary for rendering them comfortable.

Our school has no endowment, but depends on its own merits for patronage and sup-
port. Our teachers are thereby caused to exert ALL their energies in order that entire sat-
isfaction may be given.

\\'e have a ﬂourishing Sabbath school, which meets every Sabbath morning in the
main hall of the Institute. It is an acknowledged fact by all who have visited the Sabbath
school of the Farmingtou Institute that it is eclipsed by none. It is strictly non-sectarian
in its teachings and exercises, and every method is used that is conducive to its success
and to the advancement and interest of its members. The average attendance has been
about one hundred, and it promises to be much larger in the future. Such marked atten-
tion manifested by ofﬁcers, teachers and members cannot be excelled by any school.

Regular debating and literary societies are sustained throughout the year, thus aﬂ'ord-
ing an opportunity for students to become proﬁcient in this kind of work.

A regular register will be kept, showing the deportment and scholarship of students
for each month, and their standing in both for the term.

Two days' examination will be held at the close of each term.

There will be suitable classes to enter at any time during the school year, and the
school is open to all grades of pupils, of whatever advancement, either male or female.

GOVERNMENT.

Our discipline will be mild, but STRICT. Each pupil will be under the immediate con-
trol of the faculty at all times during his attendance at the Institute, and will be required
to conform to such rules as may be prescribed. We shall endeavor to prepare our pupils
for REAL PRACTICAL life, and to make them ornaments for any class of society in which they
may be thrown. .
METHOD OF INSTRUCTION.

The latest and most approved methods of instruction will be pursued in all the de-
partments. While daily recitatious will be required from the text books, we by no means
conﬁne ourselves to AN Y ONE text book, but avail ourselves of all the opportunities within
our reach. It is strictly our purpose to keep fully abreast of the times in regard to every-
thing which will be advantageous to our pupils. '

ADVANTAGES.

This is the sixth year of the school, and while its past success has been all that could
have been expected, the prospects at present are more ﬂattering than ever before. Our
teachers are all thoroughly prepared for their work and will spare no pains to make this
one of the leading schools of Western Kentucky.

BOARDING.

We make this a specialty. There is no general boarding-house connected with the
school, but in order thatjpersons of limited means may have access to this institution, our
citizens have agreed to board students at from $6 to $7.50 per month. just barely covering ac-
tual expenses. Students who desire to still lessen their expenses can rent rooms and mess
together, and thus acquire a liberal education at a triﬂing expenditure. Our citizens have
the subject of education at heart, and are lending a helping hand toward upbuilding and
sustaining this institution. For this reason they have agreed to give students board
cheaper thangit can be obtained elsewhere.
