Cedar Rapids, June ls.--Coe College
is looking earnestly for a new presi-
dent,
At a meeting of the board OF trus-
tees with DIR. John 4. MARQUIS, the
latter insisted that hir res'gnat on
which has been lying upon the taoie
siac.-fie offered IL two years ago oe
taken from the table and acted upon
At that time DIR. Marquis offered ms
resignation because he had been elect
ed secretary OF the Presbyterian e9aru
of missions and had accepted thar OF
flee. There was a feeling. however
that he could serve Coe college az
PRESIDENT and the hoard OF missions as
secretary. also. For time President
Marquis continued his residence mere
but later moved to New YORK where
he now resides, altho he has been here
at frequent intervals.
There was a great regret at the loss
OF Dr. Marquis. but "A motion was OF
fered and adopted that the resignation
OF President Marquis be accepted anu
that the office OF president be declared
vacant.
II is understood. however, that the
connection between DR.. Marquis ana
the college will not be wholly severed
until his successor has been found,
elected and installed. And this may
take some time. A special committee
will at once begin, in earnest the task
Of hunting a new president.

ought to be is shown by the expert
ence Of Mrs Alice Landers Of Bridge
port, Conn.,, who, with her sixteen
year-old daughter and ten-year-old
son. found walking good through the
states of Connecticut. New York,
Pennsylvania and Maryland. but when
they reached Lynchburg they appeal
ed for help to reach their destination
at Chattanooga, Tenn. This was sup
piled by the Travellers Aid Associa-
ton and the trio made the last lap
of their trip by train.
Mrs Landers wanted to reach Chat
tanooga, where she had a married
daughter living. but she could not
save car fare, SO a month ago she de-
cided to walk. She carried cooking
utensils and Jared very well until
they struck the Virginia roads: They
made practically the entire distance
here afoot. being helped along the
way at time by kindly disposed mo-
florists. but the Virginia roads caus-
ed them to appeal for help. The
woman expects to re-establish her
self in Chattanooga.
