We jolted over the Bridge of Spain and through a masked gate into the walled city, with the wall on our left, and the high bricked boundaries of churches and conventos on the right, till we arrived at a low, square frame structure, with the words "Escuela Municipal" above its portals. In Spanish times it was the training-school for girls, and here temporary accommodation had been provided for us.

Finally he remembered. One of the boys had pointed him out as an old soldier who had taken to nursing when he could no longer fight. He held no diploma from any training-school for nurses, he was uncouth and rough in many ways, but his varied experiences had made him a valuable assistant to the doctor, whom he called his general, and obeyed with military exactness.

"This is what I have done: I have promised I have promised that I will marry him when I come out of the training-school two years hence, and have got my certificate; his plan being that we shall then take a large double school in a great town he the boys' and I the girls' as married school-teachers often do, and make a good income between us."

There was no scarcity of capable seamen, for the merchant marine was an admirable training-school.

We do some outside "extension work," in addition to what has been enumerated: a cooking class in the town of Tuskegee for those unable to attend the school at all, and classes for the children at the Children's House, the model training-school of the institution, where they are given understandable lessons in cooking and housekeeping.

The government has under its immediate direction eighty-seven schools of the lowest grade, called kuttabs, and thirty-five of the higher grades, three secondary, two girls' schools, and ten schools for higher or professional education, the school of law, the school of medicine, with its pharmaceutical school and its school for nursing and obstetrics, polytechnic schools for civil engineers, two training-schools for schoolmasters, a school of agriculture, two technical schools, one training-school for female teachers, and the military school.

'Going on for a year, said Paul. 'Didn't the inspector want you to go to a training-school? said Alfred. 'Yes; but the Guardians wouldn't hear of it. 'Did you wish it? asked Mr. Cope. 'I liked my liberty, Sir, was the answer; and Paul looked down. 'Well, and what you do think now you've tried your liberty?

What I insist on is, that to explain such verses as this: 'Whither is thy beloved gone, O thou fairest among women? by the note: 'The Church professeth her faith, is supremely ridiculous!" "Well then, let it be! You make such a personal matter of everything!
