NORMAL GRADUATES EMPLOYED.
Prior to 1898 the State Normal school
made no formal recommendations to
the board of education of its grad
yates. Beginning with 1898, however,
the principal of the normal school fur
nished the board of education with a
list of teachers whom he could recon-
mend for work in the city schools This
practice has continued during every
year since that date.
The first of these letters OF recon-
rnendation is addressed to the superin-
tendent of schools, and reads as fol-
lows:
L send you the name of five teachers
who wish positions in the city schools.
They are graduates Of our normal
school. The first four are successful
teachers Of experience and residents of
the city. The last one named graduates
this year. 1 do not hesitate recon-
mendiug them all for positions in your
schools, and / firmly believe they will
give you satisfaction. The names are:
(e) Katie eDan, (e) Lillian Hamlin, (e)
Amy Whipple, (e) Anna Vinegar, and
(e) Alice Herman. Yours respectfully,

Ethel Woodmansee, (e) Sarah Gillett,
