who is well and f~avorably known throughout the State
II was furnished in reply 10 a letter from another gentle
man, who requested his opinion of the school:
ST. CHARLES, Mo, APRTL IA, 1910.
In reply TO your enquiry of my opinion ofthe Female
SCHOOL, ST. Charles for several years past, by Mrs.
Allen, ! can freely and cheerfully state that l have had
some opportunity Of becoming acquainted with the rep.
utation of tho school and the merits and qualifications
of the Teacher.
l 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 as an instructress
are believed to DO of the first order, her experience
in teaching has been considerable, her industry and at
iention TO her school are unusual, her mole of impart-
ing information and instruction is natural and snc-
~cessful, and her manner of treatment and govern
ment is we'll calculated to 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.
have never known any person who was well ac-
q lainted with the School who did not form q very high
opinion of is merits and those who have patronized il,
have awarded it TO the most unqualified expression of
their confidence and appreciation. | consider the
School worthy of the highest confidence and liberal
patronage.
Very Respectfully,
WIN, NJ. CAMPBELL.
