A commodious room is furnished, and the reading tables and racks are provided with the leading magazines, educational journals, and newspapers. The Library now numbers about 1,500 volumes, and will be kept open for the convenience of students ail day, and two hours in the evening. Contributions are requested from Alabama authors, and from all who are interested in strengthening this important feature of the school. Purposes. The object of the State in establishing and supporting this school is set forth in the section of the charter, which is here quoted: "Sec. 3. That said school is established for the purpose of giving therein instruction in the liberal arts and sciences; English language, and literature; the science and art of teaching as a profession, music, drawing, painting, decorative art, botany, horticulture, floriculture, scientific dairying, cooking, sewing, dressmaking, millinery, bookkeeping, stenography, typewriting, telegraphy, and any and every other branch of human knowledge or industry by which women may live." In other words, the purpose of the school is to prepare the young women of Alabama - 1. To exert an uplifting and refining influence in the home and in society by means of the cultured intellect attained by systematic training in the liberal arts and sciences. 2. To do effective work as professional teachers. 3. To be skillful in those domestic arts that are fundamental in all true housekeeping and home-making. 4. To be self-supporting through proficiency in one or more of those industrial or fine arts open to women. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
