Rising Young Teacher

We are delighted to watch the career of one of Talbotton’s brightest young 
ladies – Miss Julia Raines.  Miss Raines graduated from LeVert a few years ago 
and decided to make teaching her life work.  A short time afterwards she began 
teaching in the public schools of Columbus and did most efficient work there.  
The attention of the outside world was attracted and last year she was given a 
scholarship in Columbia University, New York, where she has taken a special 
course in the manual training department.  She returned to Talbotton Saturday 
only to stay a few days with her parents, Judge and Mrs. W.J. Raines, before 
going to Knoxville, Tenn., where she has charge of the chair of manual training 
during the great summer school that meets there.

This is an honor well bestowed and the friends of Miss Raines are rejoicing 
over her rapid promotion and predict for her a still greater career when her 
talent is better known.

Miss Julia Raines

The many friends of Julia Raines congratulate her on having recently been 
elected to the chair of Manual Training in the Normal College at Greensboro, 
N.C.  There are over 500 students at the college and 40 teachers.  The chair of 
manual training was created this year for the purpose of securing her as well 
as for the advancement of the college.  Miss Raines will leave Sept. 1, for her 
new field of labor and will do preliminary work in organizing the department 
before the college opens about Sept. 15.
