N. H. MarSnall, who has been
OF mathematics at the
Marion High school for the past six
years, was unanimously elected
principal of the High school. Friday
evening, at the regular meeting of
the board of education. The eiec-
tion of Mr.. Marshai to the princi-
palship of the school will be pleas
ing news to his many friends in this
city
There was a full attendance of the
board members for the regular meet
ing last evening, when the matter
of the election of teachers was to
be taken up. Following the consid-
Grafton of many matters, the board
went into executive session and the
teacher problem was promptly taken
up. G. III. Winans, who has been
principal of the school for the past
two years and who declared that he
would not be an applicant for the
position this year became suddenly
anxious for the work and placed an
application in the hands of Superin-
tendent II. j.. Frank shortly before
G O'Clock Monday evening. Super
intendent Frank, however, thinking
that Nj. Winans was not to be q
candidate, announced his intention
to nominate Mr.. Marshall. Mr..
Winans was nominated only on his
right to succeed himself in the prin
cipalship and upon the presentation
of the name of Mr.. Marshall, thu
board with but few ballots unan
imously elected him principal of tn,
school.
Charles e. Berry, who has beer
principal OF the Commercial depart
ment in the High school, did no
place an application in the hands o
the board and Superintendent II. u
Frank was instructed to look for
man to fill this important yacanc.
in the High s-hool faculty. A NAL
principal in this department will b
| employed at the next meeting whel
applications for the position will b.
gone over.
An action on the part of the boar
concerning Miss Leora Wizard, WHIT
has been music instructor in tn,
public schools for years past, Il
quite surprising. Miss Wizard failet
of reelection by vote of three I,
three. Messrs. Jacoby, Hill ant
Spaulding voted against Miss Wiar'
and Messrs. Dickerson, Christian
and Cutlery favored her. Mr.
Frank was again notified to look 70
applicants for this position. Ther'
are but a few applicants in tn
hands of the board at the presen
time, Miss Wizard was nominate
by Superintendent FRANK, and 1t
generally understood that she is on
of the most diligent and intereste
school workers in the city. He
| failure of reelection after her man
years of good work here will com
as surprise to the general pub
lie.
Miss Clara Cosley, who has bee
art and penmanship instructor 1
the schools here for the past yea
was not nominated by Frank and
| is stated that her work here has no
been as satisfactory as might be de
sired. There are a number of ap
J plicants for the position, but NOR
| time will be given Superintendent
Frank to look for other applicants.
In the city schools practically tn
entire tea.hing force OF the past yea
was reelected. There were a mum
ber of scattering votes on on
teacher in the High school, one a
the Greenwood building and at tn
Oak street building. All, however
were reelected with the exceptio
of Miss Fannie Reidenbaugh; of tn
Olney avenue building who will b
considered by the board at late
date. The work Of Miss Ridenbaug
has been satisfactory, but there be
ing some irregularity in the placin
of assistants this year sne will b
considered later. The vacancy i
the third grade at Davids stree
which has been filled by Miss Beat
Irlce Prior, was not filled last even
ing. This will also be given after
tion later. Vacancies were declare
at the Forest Lawn building wher
Misses Ethel McMurray, of the thir
grade, and Miss Carrie Morris, OF tn
second did not place applications /
the hands of the board.
A male principal will probably b
elected at the next meeting for on
of the grade buildings Miss Emm
Cunningham, who has been princips
of the Oak street building, was cleo
ed on condition that she be trans
ferred. This will be filled by
male principal fin order that th'
board may test out this plan.
AS for the new High s'hool prir
cipal, Mr.. X, H. Marshall. then

good administration Born In Ma
