S AnySt,m,,ufnitonlnreU. tion to the school can be obtained by addressing tlie Principal, or Robert Patrick, chairman of the board, 103 IJ Street Our readers are already familiar with tlie fact that arrangements have been made to open a Church school ln a new two-story building, owned by Bishop D. It. ISrinton, in Big Cottonwood. The title given it is Cottonwood Academy. It is Intended In-tended to be the Initial institution of Its class in the southeastern por tion of the Salt Lake SUke of Zion, and will be succeeded by others iu that section. Themovcmentto establish Church schools In that locality was begun by Dr. Maeser a few weeks ago. The initiatory steps taken by him were followed by corresponding action on the part of tlie Bishops and people of six contiguous wards South Cottonwood, Cotton-wood, Mill Creek, East Mill Creek, Big Cottonwood, Union and Granite. Gran-ite. The Stake Board of Education took part in furthering the interests of the enterprise, and, as heretofore hereto-fore stated, a local board was organized organ-ized and Is now operating actively. Following is the calendar: "The year will be divided into four terms of ten weeks each as follows Fsra: term will begin September 1 and end November 7. Second term will begin November 10 and end January St. Third term will begin January X and end April 3. Fourth term will begin April A and end June 12. There will l a vacation from December De-cember 20 to January 4. School will close on legal holidays and for General and Stake Conferences There will be two departments the first entitled preioratory, and the second, for convenience, the intermediate. in-termediate. The curriculum for each is all that could be desired, including, besides tlie usual scholastic schol-astic routine, the study of theology. The prices of tuition are, preparatory, prepara-tory, $3; intermediate 4. The iffl-dent iffl-dent services of Horace Cu minings, whose address is East Mill Creek, North P.O., Salt Lake County, have been secured as principal. Further Information can bo obtained ob-tained from him or any of the following members of tlie Board of Education. Joseph S. Ilawlins, chairman, South Cottonwood, Murray P. O. Sandra Sanders, Jr., South Cottonwood, Cot-tonwood, Murray P. O. James C. Hamilton, Mill Creek, Mill Creek P. O. James It. Miller, treasurer, Mill Creek. Murray P. O. Francis McDonald, Big Cottonwood, Cotton-wood, North P.O. JohnNeir. East Mil! Creek.North P. O. Charles Denney,ecretary, Union. iV.n. Thompson, Jr., Granite. On Sunday, August 31st, Dr. Macser, General Superintendent of Church schools will meet with the people at tlie Big Cottonwood meeting meet-ing house at 2 p. m., and will he at the Mill Creek meeting house at 7:34 p. m. the same day. On the day of oicnlng the school (Sept 1st) he n ill be at the new building where it is to le conducted at 9 a. tn. It is a matter for regret that the new furniture fur the school rooms will not arrive in time for the opening, open-ing, but Is expected to reach its dej-tlnatlonalewdays dej-tlnatlonalewdays later. The commencement com-mencement will not, however, be dcla ed on that account as temporary tempor-ary arrangements have been made to bridge the brief interim. It Is pleasing to all good Latter-day Latter-day Saints to note every progre"lve step mile In the direction of establishing estab-lishing schools in which their children child-ren can obtain s.n education in unison uni-son with their faith, a. they are there taught not only In the ordin ary branches that are commonly imarted but also In a know ledge of godliness. May the blessing of tlie IjoivJ rest upon all who are actively engaged in a work so important and commendable. |
