i! i! other locations in order to remain in Gov

IN which they have become interested both
socially and for civic reasons.

from iron Prof. Aswell offering her position at
800 per month for nine-months term; also

Gazes has also refused propositions to teach
elsewhere, one from Hammond, at salary
above that which she is receiving here.

the teachers in our school, thorough instruc-

should be rewarded by the patrons of the
school with good attendance during that
