Miss Bessie McNeely. who formerly
taught in the Topeka schools and went
to Seattle about year ago, has been
advanced to position in the High
school. She had been trying for some
time for position in the Topeka High

because she had never been a student
at a certain school whose graduates
were at that time receiving all the APP
pointments. The work of the teach
ers in the grammar schools of Seat
tie is graded, and after one years
work in the common schools Miss Nc
ity was so firmly established, that she

has many friends here who will be glad
to learn of her success.
