All students coming to the Summer School from points within the
territory covered by the Southeastern Passenger Association, i. e.,

should apply some time in advance to the local agent for reduced
rates which have been granted by the Southern Passenger Association

the round trip. Tickets will be on sale June 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23,
24, 25, with privilege of extension of final limit to September 30. In
case the agent has received no instructions to sell reduced rate
tickets to Charlottesville, purchase a straight fare ticket and take
the agent's receipt. The matter can be adjusted in procuring return
ticket. In Virginia reduced rate tickets will be on sale at all railroad
stations.

A committee will meet all incoming trains night and day, from
June 17th to June 25th, to assist teachers in finding boarding places,
to attend to baggage and to render any other service needed. On
arriving teachers should inquire at the station for members of the
committee who will wear suitable badges. A committee of ladies
from the Y. W. C. A. will assist in welcoming teachers attending for
the first time.

Teachers arriving at Charlottesville from points on the C. and O.
should have their baggage checked to Union Station, Charlottesville.
Baggage checks should be given to the committee. If handed to
others, a receipt should be taken.

Teachers arriving before 6 a. m. and later than 10:30 p. m. will be
met, provided they notify Mr. F. M. Alexander.
