year. Miss Arabelle Horton, graduate
of the State Normal school at Geneseo,
N. Y, and a teacher of skill and expert
ence, has accepted the position of pre-
ceptress in the High school. Miss Hor-
ton is a lady of inherited educational
tendencies, of refined and pleasing ap-
Pearance, and she is said to have con-
spicuous executive ability in the line of
her work. 1t is believed that she will be
a valuable addition to a faculty, some of
whose members have no superiors in
their line, and whose work and ability
are widely known. That our schools
have high reputation throughout the
State is shown by the fact that the trus-

many applications from teachers who
express desire to come here because of
The professional advantage it will be to
them. Some of these teachers state
plainly in their applications, that they
have heard of our work, and heard our
teachers in educational meetings, and
that they wish to come here to learn
some of the things which our teachers
seem to understand so well.
