It Is now no unusual thing for women to servo as County Superintendents, and in other high educational positions.

She struggled against great odds to secure an education but succeeded and bo-came the- founder of Mt. Holyoke Seminary which made possible for the first time in the history of th'o world a general, liberal education for girls.

Having taught in the public schools of Jackson County seven years, at Burning Springs in Clay County eight month and In the Foundation Schools of Berea College, two terms, I feel that I could servo my county efficient ly in the office of Superintendent. So, in response to many requests, I hereby announce my candidacy for the office of County Superintendent of Schools of Jackson County, and 1 ask all friends of education to fall In line and unite irrespective of party in my support, thus securing a Superintendent of Schools, who a promoter of education rather than a politician.
