I have chosen educational work as a life work; I have no other interests to serve. I have a good Macon county school training.

I have taught and supervised every grade from the primary, to and including the High school. I have had the child in the rural schools; in the village schools; in the Junior High school; in the High school, and in the Decatur ward school. Due to this varied experience, I am able to appreciate the problems and the needs of the rural and village schools in their relation to the larger school system. I have never "stood still" in educational work. That my work in the school room has been progressive is evident from the fact that my promotions have been very rapid.

My change in position has always been from lower to higher; never from higher to lower. the MMfciiilPJili Enter Student oa' Trainin At- Millikln Univer a DD DD DO OO DO DD OD DO DO on OD DD DO DO DO DO DO on DO DD DO DD DO DD DO DD DD DD DD DO on Dn na oa DD on Dn DO DO DO DO DO nn Your Status Republican Candidate Graduate of rural school 1903; Academy of James MiHikin University 1906; teacher in rural school 1906-1907; graduate of College of James Millikin University 1910; Principal of village schools 1910-1914; His. lory teacher in Decatur Junior High School 1914-1917; History teacher in Decatur High School 1917; Principal of Jackson Street School, Decatur, 1918 for The War Department regards a student in the S.
