places. They managed to get home

Miss Florence McNeal and
mother were in the city to-day aud
called briefly at the Times Office,
Miss McNeal ls one Of the many De-
catur county teachers that have left
for more lucrative fields. She has been
teaching in Kirwin the last year, and
prior to that was teaching III Philips
burg. We should raise our standard
and keep such teachers M Miss Flor
ence at home,- O6erljn Times.
Jack Stewart suggests that the
churches III Smith Centre hang States
in the vestibules for the Jouug ladies
to register upon before entering.
Then he says the young men who
come around before closing time,
could find out whether their girl was
inside without craning their necks so
hard to look in ut the doors aud the
windows aud the congregation could
pass out without having to push
through a large crowd Of these
young men.
We are pleased to notice the in
terest that is beng taken in all parts
of the county in the Il. A. and l. U,
work, This work has been going on
in quiet aud unassumng way, Re
organizations have lately been affect
ed at Dana, Freedom, and Falrview.
Deer Greek Alliance was never IN a
more prosperous condition, Marvin
and RushviIle are steadily growing.
This is right aud we hope to see all
parts of the county take up the good
work.
