man, who requested his opinion of the school:
7 t"aH ST. CHARLES, Mo, APRIL IA, 1910.
d In reply to your enquiry of my opinion ofthe Female
Schoolin St. Charles for several years past, by Mrs.
Allen, I can freely and cheerfully state that I have had
some opportunity of becoming acquainted with The rep
utation Of the school and the merits and qualifications
of the Teacher.
E have never known a better female school in any
place, and I believe that Mrs. Allen has very few supe-
riors as a Teacher.
Her requirements and qualifications Is an instructress
are believed to be of the first order, her experience
in teaching has been considerable, her industry and at
tention to her school are unusual, her mode Of imPart-
ing information and instruction is natural and snc-
cessful, and her manner Of treatment and govern
mont is well calculated 10 gain and secure the con-
fdence, 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.
q1ainted with the School who did not form a 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. l consider tho
School worthy of the highest confidence and liberal
patronage.
Very Respectfully,
WIN, NJ. CAMPBELL.
