The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1908-07-23

A change in the management of the
Johnson Drug Co., on the north side of
the square. has been made. Frank
Baldwin, who has been in charge of the
store, has gone to Ottumwa, where he
will have employment in the same line
of business. The new manager of the
store is F. G. Morgan, of Leon. Mr.. Nor
gan has been in charge of store at
Centerville for the past year and half.
He took over the new work the first of
the week. He is an agreeable and push
ing young man and will reach out for
the drug business of the community.
Mr.. Baldwin and wife have been popu-
lar in Abba and have many friends who
will trust they may have the greatest
prosperity in the new location. Abba
Republican.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1908-07-23

Miss Vera Price, who attended the
summer school at Leon and took the
teachers examination in June, received
report Of her standings from the super
intendent last Saturday. Mr.. Price
stepped into the office to show us the
grades and we were glad to note that
they were excellent. Several of them
we're above 80 per cent and the aver
age was 1858 per cent. This entities
her to a good second grade certificate,
which is pretty good for first attempt.
Van Vert Record.
The Leon reporter. (Leon, Iowa) 1887-1930, 1908-07-23

Miss Nellie Moreland called us up
over the telephone last Saturday and
informed us that she had landed
second class certificate in the examin-
alton which she took at Leon in June.
Her grades were high enough for first
grade in all the branches in which she
was examined. We were indeed glad
to hear the good news, but had never
doubted her ability to pass the examin-
alton successfully. Miss Moreland is a
good student, Industrious and ambitious

The national road law is to be en-
forced in many parts Of the country
since there are so many accidents from
automobiles by people turning out to
the wrong side Of the road. This is a
matter that should be kept in mind by
everybody when travelling on the public
road. If you are on the right side of
the road and anything happens you are
not to blame, otherwise you cannot coll
lect damages in case you are damag ed.
When meeting one, and especially an
automobile on the public road, always
turn to the right side of the road.

ed an excellently executed cartoon.
