those who are serving the universit
in either an official capacity or on tho
faculty and whose resignation has
been turned in to the chancellor is
that of Miss Ruth Watkins, who has
accepted a position as a member OF
the faculty of the Central High School
Of Memphis.
Miss Watkins, whose home is al
Newton, Miss, entered the university
in the fall of 1906 and has served in
the capacity of secretary to Secretary
Ross since 1909. She has also been
matron of Kicks Hall, dormitory for
women, for the past two years. In
both these positions she has served
the university most efficiently and her
absence will be sorely felt.
Miss Watkins possesses all the char
acteristics of making the Memphis
school a valuable teacher, as she has
had wide training in both business and
teaching. She received her bachelor
of arts and her master of arts degrees
from the university in 1910 and 1912
respectively.
She leaves the university on her
own volition, and her leaving causes
a vacancy in the secretary's office
that will be indeed hard to fill, as she
is most valuable asset to that of
flee.
