HOUGHTON -
Our school is prospering finely. We believe it to be one of the most strictly guarded Christian schools in this country. To come to this school means good behavior and hard study. The morals of the children are looked after as well as their intellectual culture. Chapel services twice every day. the Spring term open s April 7th. We would say to the parents living within proper bounds of this school that if you wish to place your children away from liquor, billiards, skating rinks and kindred evil influences, send them to the Houghton Seminary.
Board from $2.00 to $2.50 per week, or rooms to rent cheap. Our little village is growing. A number of new buildings are ready to go up as soon as Spring opens, and many from abroad are moving here to educate their children. We cordially invite all lovers of good society, morality and religion, without respect to nationality, sect or color, to come and help us plant this school of Christ and the children of the world.
Yours,
W.J. HOUGHTON.
