PERSONAL NOTES.

Miss Lynne Waddell left yesterday for

MISS Waddell has been faithful and eff
hcient member of the Shepherd College
faculty TOR several years past, and her
work in the department of English is
recognized as having been of the highest
order. She recently resigned her posi-

loss to the school,. Her plans for the

upon, but her friends in Shepherdstown,
whose good wishes follow her, hope
that she may not long be out of school
work, for which she is so well qualified.
