Miss Fannie Mcclure went &
Emporia Monday where she will at
tend the State Normal during the
year, giving her attention mainly &c
modern languages, literature and
music; and Miss Lola Smeltzer started
yesterday to Boston to enter upon a
two years. course of music at the New
England Conservatory. We couple
these announcements because the
young ladies have been such "insepar-
ables" i'm their personal relations as to
make 1t seem unnatural to mention
one without the other. Both have
| been indispensable members of our
social and musical circles and both
will be sadly missed particularly from
the Presbyterian church choir to
which they have given faithful and
efficient service for q long time. Their
friends rejoice, however, as much a.
they regret their departure, that they
are to have opportunities for wider
culture and training i'm the line of
their special tastes and aptitudes and
follow them with all good wishes.
