FOR COUNTY
COMMISSIONER
OF SCHOOLS
Miss Lucy Gull Announces She Will
Contest at April Election for Office
of Commissioner of Schools.

Unable to withstand the many pleas
from friends that she become an &C
tive candidate for county commission
er Cd schools at the April election,
Miss Lucy Gull, teacher in the lonia
city schools for the past nine years,
has announced that she will make the
race for that office and will use active
campaign methods to bring about her
election.
Miss Gull is the first woman cam
didate for county office and this
fact alone will probably result in
bringing out a large number of wo-
man voters on election day, who will
have a natural feminine desire to see
her land the coveted honor. At first
Miss Gull was in no way a candidate
for the office, but nominated at the
primaries and urged by her friends,
she feels that it is her duty to enter
into the contest. And if elected that
she will make a excellent county Of
fetal is borne out by the success she
has had in her varied experiences as
teacher, both in rural and city
schools.
She is-a teacher of unusually broad
ideas strengthened by many years of
experience. A native Of Cleveland,
Ohio, she came to this state early.
and after completing the usual grad
ed school work, took the prescribed
course at Mt Pleasant. graduating
from that institution with high credit
for scholarship. Soon after her
graduation she came to Ionia county
to teach her first school in the grades
at Palo. From there she went to
Saranac, where she remained three
years, coming from that place to
Ionia, and it is here that for the past
nine years she has given her best
thought and endeavors in advancing

The sunny south, company.

The amusement loving public will
be glad to hear that the j. c. Rock
well Sunny South" company, the
show that leaves you laughing when
they say good night, will appear
in the Bedding opera house, Saturday
evening, April 5. 1t is several years
since this company has been seen
here; on its former visits it was pro-
nounced tc be the best and most
pleasing of the kind ever appearing
in this city. This season the per-
Torrance is absolutely new and right
up-to-the-minute in every respect. 1t
is characteristic throughout, being a
mixture of fun, melody and dancing,
consisting of all the features peculiar
to the negro in Dixie land, presented
by negroes of the cultured and edu-
Gated class, free from vulgarity,
without any objectional features. at
the same time sparkling with wit and
good humor. Comedy is all that is
aimed at and nothing else is reached
bar some very clever singing, dane
ing and entertaining specialties of the
better class, which will make the
audience sit up and take notice. The
management wish to give the public
ten together a strong and evenly
balanced organization which is bound
to please the most fastidious seeker
after amusement. There is snap
and ginger from beginning to end the
music is bright and catchy and of
that gingery sort that can be whist
led after one hearing. The perform
ance contains more real humor, wit,
original ideas and up-to-the- minute
novelties than any similar organiza-
tions. From first to last there is not
an objectional word spoken nor the
slightest approach to vulgarity in
action or glance. A good sprinkling
Of new songs has been made and with
the atmosphere being of the sort
where the audience leave the theater
whistling the latest song hits, ycu
can rest assured ththey think they
have received full value for their
money.
The organization is accompanied
by an excellent solo concert band and
superb orchestra. The "Koontown'
parade takes place at the noon hour.

schools. Through all of her work
she has maintained the high grade of
her own ideals and aspirations, which
has made her work success, goal
to be striven for by other teachers,
and her methods an example for them
to follow after.
Especially has she been consistent
model for the young teachers of the
county to pattern after, the members
of the county normal class being
brought to her room often to be shown
the ways and methods of handling
and teaching the young children with
which her work is especially identi-
fed In this way she has formed the
acquaintance of many Of the young
teachers in the county, in whose prob
lens and worries she is more than in
terested and to whom she would be-
come most helpful in her work as
commissioner.
Miss Gull believes that in the lower
grades of the rural school lies the
greatest problems of education to be
solved. Many rural school children
receive most of their schooling in
these grades, and they Dorm the
largest influence in establishing an
interest in further schooling, as well
as the firm foundation for future
learning.
She believes that one of the great
missions Of the country school is its
services as a community center and
although steps have been taken in
that direction, only the slightest be-
ginning has been made, and that the
power for regenerating neighborhood
life has so far been only dimly realiz-
ed. She also contends that many of
the country children. who are gradu-
ates from the eighth grade of those
schools, labor under a serious disad-
vantage. when they come to town and
enter high school there. Arguing
from that standpoint she thinks that
a closer correlation between the high
er grades from the country schools
and the high school classes in the
towns should be an important aim of
the commissioners work. She be-
lieves the commissioners office should
be devoted TO the work of the country
schools and not as a stationary office
for business.
Miss Cults ideas and aims are those
of IS successful and oberving teacher
of Is years. experience, which though
steady and hard has not made her
blind to the problems of others. nor
unappreciative of the claims of the
public. and narrow to her own inter-
ests in place of those of thee ommun-
ity, which she serves.

While strolling in Savannah, past a
church decayed and dim,
There slowly through the windows
came a plaintive funeral hymn.
A sympathy awakened and wonder
quickly grew,
And found myself environed in a
little Negro pew,
In front, colored couple sat in sor-
row almost wild,
On the altar was coffin; in the cof-
fin was a child.

kinky hair, protruding lips;
I'd seen perhaps thousand on my
hurried Southern trips.
Yet no baby ever rested in the sooth-
ing arms Of death
That had famed more flames Of sor-
row with its little faltering breath.
And no funeral ever glistened with
more sympathy profound
Than in that chain of tear drops that
enclasped the mcurners round.
Rose a sad, old colored preacher at
his little wooden desk,
In manner grandly awkward and
with countenance grotesque;
With simplicity and shrewdness on
And the ignorance. yet the wisdom,
of crushed, undying race.
