A Well-Known High School
Teacher Released From Con-
tract by Board
GOES TO MORGAN PARK, ILL.
School Board Holds a Special Session
This Morning, and Grants tho Re.
leasc at Miss Sayers' Roqucst-Sup-
erintendcnt Crane Protests Because
of Precedent.

The Marshalltown high school is to
lose one OF its best teachers after the
close of this weeks session on We'd
nesday. when the resignation OF Miss
Harriet Snyers. Mt the head of tho de-
partment of English, will become effec-
tive. Miss Sayers made application
to Chairman George A. Turner. of the
committee on teachers, Sunday, for a
release from her contract. and the
board held u special meeting this
morning, at the homo of President
Church. and granted the release. Miss
s'ayers will go to Morgan Park, Ill.,. at
On Increase In SALARY OF $l75 per year.
Chairman Turner was seen regard
Ing the matter, and explained that the
board saw tit to grant the release be-
cause of the fact OF Miss Sayers'
long service in the schools here. and
that Mt the present time there was no
opportunity for advancement. The new
position is In tho line OF promotion,
and the members Of the board did not
feel that they could stand In the ", y
OF Miss Sayers advancement, cons.u-
ering her ten years service here
superintendent Crane protested Wig
orously against the release, because of
the fact that 1t establishes u precedent
that he considers will embarrass the
board In the future. especially In view
of the fact that the board has gone on
record as favoring the strict contract
that he has endeavored to enforce. Miss
.sayers went to Superintendent Crane
first with her application for Il release,
but the superintendent refused to dis
cuss the matter, standing by his pre-
vious announcement that he would not
release teachers after they had once
signed their contracts.
Rumors OF discontentment in which
Miss Sayers' name was mentioned, have
been current in high school circles
since the appointment by Superintend-
ent Crane of Miss Ruby Baughman as
acting principal, to succeed John j.
Louis superintendent Crane consld-
cred Miss Baughman as the best quail
lied to become acting principal. and
her appointment was ratified by the
board. Miss Sayers 1t is claimed, did
not like the appointment, and felt that
she should have been considered, In
view OF her long service. She went
to the board, in an endeavor to secure
the appointment but the board sus-
tanned the superintendent. Mr.. Turner
was asked concerning this phase Of the
case, as it might possibly affect Miss
Savers departure at this time, but he
replied that he knew but little about IT.
further than he knew Miss Sayers had
been disappointed at not receiving the
appointment of acting principal.
Miss Savers is remarkably fine
teacher, and has done much good work
In the high school here. She Is very
bright woman, and she will be missed
by the pupils and teachers alike, also
the many personal friends she has
made in the city.

This may read as tho we We're put

generally thought by the majority OF
people that dyspepsia, IN it's chronic
form Is incurable or practically SO. But
we have long since shown that dys-
pepsia Is durable, nor Is 1t such dir

The trouble with dyspeptics is that
they are continually dieting. starving
themselves, or going to opposite ex-
trerne, or else deluging the already
overburdened stomach with "bitters,"
"after-dinner pills." etc. which invar-
iably increase the difficulty even II In
some cases they do give slight, tenn

stomach simply makes matters worse.
What the stomach wants is a rest. Now

The sufferer from dyspepsia, accord

your dyspepsia may be. because. as
before stated, the tablets will digest
