 Success as President

The Margaret Allen school, which has at it's head Miss Hattie Morton. also president of Louie Compton sem mary, and who has won marked dis tinction by the success which she has attained at the head of two separate educational institutions. is thoroughly committed to the demand for higher education and it's entire history since 1902 has been simply a record of it's gratifying devotion to a high standard.
 Margaret Allen school was founded by Misses B. A. Allen, W. M. Allen and Ruth L. Allen. Miss Morton taking con- trol of the institution one year ago, and Misses B. A. Allen and w. M. AL len retiring from active connection with it, though Miss Ruth |. Allen re- tains the principalship of the Latin department.
 Since assuming the presidency of Margaret Allen school Miss Hattie Nor ton, who was one of the founders of the Louie Compton seminary, has in- augurated the same methods and pol icies which have proven so successful at the older institution and there is no doubt but what this. the eighteenth session of the Margaret Allen will prove the best in it's history.
