 Jennie Berry Palmer, one of Apache County's most able teachers, who was born and educated in this county and was among the first graduates of our academy, we are informed, has re- ceived a life certificate from our state. Mrs. Palmer started to teach in 1903 and has only missed two terms. She has spent several summers at Flag staff attending the Normal so as to be- come more efficient in her chosen vo- cation and to prepare for this final ex- animation. Not alone in teaching has Mrs. Palmer been successful but she has been true and devoted mother snl wife and has successfully raised fam fly of good children.
 Fifteen years of experience and ser vice should prepare her for most any position in the county and in our opiniC it is to such as her that Apache coun- ty owes much, and it is time that the people of our county stood by those who have been through the battle and made good. Is it not time that we gave the cream to those who are with us permanently and not to those who are just visiting-as it were-for a short season.
