BOOK-KEEPING.
Bryant & Stratton's Common School Book-keeping, as found in the course, will give one an introduction into this desirable art, but those who wish to pursue this subject further will be taken as special students through the advanced works, enabling them to master the art, and entitling them to our Certificate of Profi- ciency. In the same way those who wish to do special work in Latin, Greek, German, French, or English Lit- erature, will be provided for.
MUSIC.
The growing demand for music impels us to meet the wants of our patrons in that line. The day when music is regarded as a vanity or luxury is past. It is now under many circumstances an essential. Instances now frequently occur where a lady fails to secure a position as teacher because she cannot teach the children to sing, or because she cannot favor some family in the community with lessons on the organ or piano, while she who has such accomplishments can often supple- ment her salary with ten or fifteen dollars per month. It is our purpose, as fast as classes can be formed, to give thorough instruction in instrumental music and chorus singing. A regular course in both these will be provided, and a Certificate of Proficiency awarded to those who complete it.
HISTORY.
This institution was founded in 1854, and was opened for the reception of students two years later. ' Under the name of Friendsville Institute the school continued almost without interruption until 1881, when it was chartered as Friendsville Academy, under which name it still continues. The Academy is the property of Friendsville Quarterly Meeting of the Society of

FRIENDSVILLE ACADEMY.
Friends, and as such was founded primarily for the ed- ucation of their own children, but its doors are open to all, of whatever name, who will conform to its regula- tions. The school-rooms are located in a commodious two-story brick building, occupying an elevated posi- tion overlooking the village, and surrounded by an en- closure of two acres. At the west end of this enclos- ure is the William Foster Home for Girls, and on the south side is the Friendsville Home for Boys. Friends- ville is on the Marietta & North Georgia Railroad, twen- ty-one miles south of Knoxville, and is a growing young town of 400 inhabitants.

WILLIAM FOSTER HOME FOR GIRLS. MRS. J. H. MOORE, MATRON.

This home commemorates the English philanthropist, William Foster, who, while on a mission of philanthropy and benevolence to this country, died at Friendsville after a brief illness in 1854, and whose grave in the cemetery here is viewed with interest by the passers by. Girls boarding in this home will, under the direction of the matron, do the domestic work of cooking and caring for their rooms and clothing. In this way they get definite instruction in household work, and reduce the cost of board. The regulations of the home are established, and every Inmate is required to conform to them cheerfully. The matron is a lady of experience in both instructing and caring for girls, and mothers who place their children In her charge may feel confident that they will be well cared for. The home will accommodate twenty girls.

FRIENDSVILLE HOME FOR BOYS. MRS. MARGARET HACKNEY, MATRON.
In this building boys find a neat and comfortable horne at very low cost. In the matron every boy will find a friend, every child a mother She has been in charge of this building for several years, and Is well known to patrons of the institution. The regulations of the home are established, and everyone is required to comply with them cheerfully. Students room- ing here have an advantage of being convenient to the school-room, and in being with their fellows that have a common object. In both the homes students are still under the authority of the Principal as well as the ma- tron, and are held to account for good conduct as long as they are mem- bers of the institution. The home will accommodate twenty boys.

Board and tuition are payable in advance.
Apply to the Principal for admission to the school before engaging board.
It is our purpose to give a thorough and solid educa- tion, and to that end true industry and careful discipline are necessary. The child who does not learn to be care- ful and steady will be careless and shiftless when grown; the youth who does not learn to comply cheerfully with all reasonable requisitions for the common good will make a violator of the law when a. man. We mean, in discipline, to be mild but firm. We appeal to each one's integrity and sense of right to conform his life to the truth in both action and word. All students must be prompt and regular. No deduction for absence ex- cept in case of prolonged sickness. All boarding pupils will be required to attend . Sabbath-school and meeting for worship at the Friends' Church on Sabbath morning. Frequent visits home by boarding pupils will not be al- lowed. Reports of progress in study and of deportment will be sent to parents or guardians monthly. Written examinations in the subjects studied will be held the

last week of each term. Each student will be required to give one public reading before the school, give one declamation, and prepare and read one original essay, during each term.
In conclusion, we want to say to the patrons, former students, and friends of the Academy, that we enter upon our new sphere of work here full of cheer and hope for the growth of the school. Friendsville Academy has a good record. She has done a good work. Through all this hill country her sons and daughters are found, and found in honorable callings. Positions of trust in all departments have been given them. Be it our pur- pose to uphold that standard, and, with the progress of the age, to take a step forward. And we appeal to you for your vigorous co-operation in sympathy, in good- will, in influence, in word and in patronage. Visit the school. Keep yourselves posted on its work. Ask us questions. Make suggestions. This catalogue has been prepared with some haste. All our plans are not told here. All our faculty are not yet secured. But no effort will be spared to have everything in readiness for the opening of the Fall term. Let us close with an ap- plication of Whittier's verse in the Quaker Alumni to the past of the Academy:
Not vainly the gift of its fathers was made, Not prayerless the stones of its corner were laid : The blessings of Him whom in secret they sought,
Has owned the good work which the fathers have wrought.
J. H. MOORE, PRINCIPAL, Friendsville, Tennessee.

Testimonials.
Prof. and Mrs. J. H. Moore are natives of North Carolina, in the schools of which State they have taught for several years. He is a graduate of Haverford College, Pennsylvania, and she of Rutherford College, North Carolina. The follow- ing testimonials will speak for themselves:
Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction, Raleigh, N. C.
This is to certify that Mr. J. H. Moore is a man of excel- lent character and a competent and progressive teacher. He will discharge in a satisfactory manner any school work he will undertake. It affords me pleasure to commend him to any community seeking a good teacher.
S. M. FINGER,
State Superintendent of Public Instruction.
This will certify that Prof. J. H. Moore is a man of excel- lent character, good natural abilities, and through scholarship. He has made teaching a study and a profession, and has had several years of successful experience. I can heartily recommend him as an enterprising, public-spirited man, whose sympathies will be with all good work.
JOSEPH MOORE,
Professor of Geology and Botany. Earlham College, Richmond Ind.
Having personally known Prof. Jessee H. Moore all my life, and having been a patron of his school for two years, it is a pleasure to me to commend him to the public as a thoro- ughly consecrated christian gentleman and progressive edu- cator. He is known by me to be fully qualified for either High School or Collegiate work. He is both a good instructor and a good disciplinarian. His social qualities are such that all who come in contact with him not only learn to love him, but their social character is elevated and their aspirations are made higher. I most heartily commend him to the good people everywhere. GEO. W. STARLING,
Member of the North Carolina Conference of the M. E. Church, South, Goldsboro, N. C.
I esteem it a pleasure to bear testimony to the high char- acter and qualifications as a teacher, of Prof. J. H. Moore, whose efforts in instructing the young in this county for the past several years have been attended with success. I cheer- fully commend him to the favorable consideration of those desiring the services of a first-class teacher.
D. J. BROADHURST, -
Superintendent of Public Instruction, Wayne County, N. C.
It gives me great pleasure to testify to the eminent charac- ter and ability of Prof. J. H. Moore. I have known him from my earliest recollections, and a higher toned and more noble gentleman I never knew. He is an excellent scholar, a classical graduate of Haverford College, near Philadelphia, Pa., where he distinguished himself both for his christian character and rare scholarship. M. THOS. EDGERTON,
President Oak Cliff College for Young Ladies, Dallas, Texas.
Ridge Farm, Illinois.
As a patron I wish to say Prof. J. H. Moore has been in charge of the High School at this place for the past year, and has managed the same to our satisfaction. He is a gentleman with a force of character and a refinement fitting him for the social relations of any position. J. M. DAVIS.
As a patron, for the last two years, of Prof. J. H. Moore's school, it is gratifying to me to add my testimony to its effi- ciency and superiority. I have found the instruction and government of himself and wife, superior to any under which my children have ever been placed. Their intelligence and high character as christian workers render their services of high value. Respectfully,
GEO. F. BARKER,
Deacon of the Missionary Baptist Church, near Goldsboro, N. C.
I have known Mrs. J. H. Moore for a number of years, and I take pleasure in giving expression to the high estimate that I have always placed upon her character and work. She is a member of an excellent North Carolina family, and she is very generally esteemed by those with whom she has been thrown, either in business or social relations. Energetic, in- dustrious, ambitious, persevering and thoroughly reliable, she will do conscientious and truest work. I believe her to be a faithful and successful teacher, and worthy of the confidence and respect of those who have children to educate.
SILAS E. WARREN,
Principal Wilson Collegiate Institute, Wilson, N. C.
FRIENDSVILLE
Is on the Marietta & North Georgia Railroad, 21 miles South of Knoxville, in the western part of Blount County, and in the midst of one of the finest agricultural sections of East Tennessee. This railroad has been in operation three years, and affords an easy connection with all points North and South, and gives the town all modern conveniences of freight and passenger depots, telegraph, express and post offices. We have a popula- tion of about 400, and all the common industries are represented: - Stores of General Merchandise, Hardware, Drugs, Confectioneries, Planing Mill, Smith Shops, Tannery, Saw and Grist Mills. A Canning Factory with an authorized capital of $100,000.00, has been duly incor. porated by the laws of the State, and the large building is now _nearing completion. They will work this season about seventy hands, with an output of about 10,000 cans per day. Near the town, also, are immense beds of valuable marble and building stone now being developed in ten different quarries, three of which are connected with the main line by railroads of their own. We have a good public school in an elegant new build- ing. The Friends have a large church in the town, and there are a number of other churches in the surrounding country. The health of the community is good. We are 800 feet above sea level-entirely above the malarial line. Intoxicants are not sold in the county. Numer- ous streams in the community afford abundant water- power for machinery. The town is having a steady and healthful growth.
If you want a home for your family in a good, quiet and moral community, where your children can have good school facilities, with the advantages of all modern conveniences for living, where the opportunities for business are good, and property is likely to enhance in value soon, come to Friendsville. Building material is cheap. Building lots in desirable portions of the town for dwellings or for business, are now on the market and may be had on liberal terms of either of the undersigned. Correspondence solicited.
