Biggs, owner of the pro perty, has not definitely decided what kind of a building he wili erect on the lot, but in all probability he will er ect a handsome building at an early date, and will use it for his business, which is now being conducted in the ! Proctor building on North Elm ^street.

This opening day marked the entrance of the school into a wider field of service and usefulness, both as to the tvpe of work offered, and also through the nature /of the sup port; for the school was taken over last fall bv the Baptist State con vention, which authorized fts con version into a standard junior col lege to serve the people of the State and especially the Piedmont section of the State. The opening exercises in the audi torium began at 10 at m.. led bv President Beach.

The faculty of eleven mem bers is composed of five men and six women, all graduates or post-gradu ates of standard colleges, and ail having had special training in their particular field. Rev. C. M. Beach, M. A., Wake Forest college, 1902, who has been head of the school for a number of years, continues as President of the institution. His co workers are: Prof. C. C. Burris, B.

So the College opens its doors dressed in a new suit as it were, a suit with long trousers, too, if you please. The whole interior of the administration building has been worked over to form standard college class rooms. A11 the old school desks have been sold and in their place each class room is provided with 30 new class room chairs. The three dormitories along with the administration build ing have been overhauled on the in side. The students and faculty have had little chance to get either lonesome or homesick. Outside of the great amount of detail and routine work connected with the opening of*a school session, two receptions were tendered the students and faculty during the first week of school. Thus the year's work is on. Win gate school is no more. In its plaee Record of Death* MRS. OOCKBRY KtNLAW Young Wife Died Saturday Afternoon After Brief HinSss—Funeral and interment This Afternoon.
