assistance and to Edward McIntire,
chief of records.
Milton w. Ferguson, great keeper
of the wampum, made a report on
the financial condition Of the great
council, and Edward McIntire, great
chief of records, in an address said
that it is too often the case that the
few take care of the many. He said
:, that the fraternity had a deeper
meaning than the paying of bene-
fits, for it reaches out and removes
obstacles that impede progress and
helps members over the difficulties
land reverses of life. It assists in
the building of substantial American
citizens of the higher type. He rec
commended that all cooperate in as

of the fraternity in the state.

CORDELA ELIZABETH CARTER
Fourth Grade
Miss Carter was born in Green
wood, and after three months at
this place was removed to Wyoming.
From Wyoming to Bridgeville was
the next step and we find Miss Car
ter enrolled in the Bridgeville Pub
lie School. For six years she was a
student at this institution, making
friends and building a foundation
for her later education.
Wilmington, the metropolis of her
native state, was the next place to
claim her allegiance, and for the
next few years she was enrolled in
the schools of that city. At the con-
clusion of her sophomore year in
high school she again removed to
Bridgeville where she was gradua-
ted two years later.
The year after her graduation was
spent in rest and travel. Somewhere
in her travels Miss Carter caught
the germ of the desire to teach and
at the beginning of the next school
year we ma her enrolled IN the
West Chester State Teachers Col
Iege.
During her teacher training course
Miss Carter was very active in the /
many affairs of undergraduate life. |
