quaintcd with her establishment; and it is for the pur.
pose of finishing this information that she has conclu.
ded to send out the present Circular.
She has it in her power to multiply references IN re-
spect to her school; but contents herslf with calling
attention to the following testimonial from a gentleman,
who is well and f~avorably known throughout the State
II was furnished in reply to n letter from another gentle
man, who requested his opinion of the school:
ST. CHARLES, Mo-, APRIL Ia, 1910.
In reply to your enquiry Of my opinion ofthe Female
SCHOOL, in St. Charles for several years past, by Mrs.
Allen, l can freely and c~heerfully state that | have had
some opportunity of becoming acquainted with ;he rep
utaiion Of the school and the merits and qualifications
of the Teacher.
have never known a better female school in any
place, and l believe that Mrs. Allen has very few supe.
riors as a Teacher.
Her requirements and qualifications rs an instruciress
are believed to be of the first order, her experience
in teaching has been considerable. her industry ana at
tention to her school are unusual, her mode of impart-
inr information and instruction is natural and snc-
cessful, and her manner of treatment and govern
ment is well calculated 10 gain and secure the con-
6dence, respect and good will of those entrusted 10 her
care. Such is her reputation among those who have
had the best opportunity Of being intimately acquainted
with her mode Of teaching and conducting her school.
have never known any person who was well ac-
auainted with the School who did not form q very high
opinion of its merits and those who have patronized it,
have awarded it to the most unqualified expression OF
their confidence and appreciation. | consider tho
School worthy of the highest confidence and liberal
patronage.
Very Respectfully.
WIN, VI. CAMPBELL.
