The case was to be t r ied in J u s t i c e 13rooker's court, bu t by com- m o n consent, was adjourned for one -week. Immedia te ly after the ad- j o m ' n m e n t of the court, t he defen- d a n t s returned to their , work, the (L _&. I~. people being determined to com- D l e t e tl~e job a t all hazards.

CASS CITY'S EDUCATORS, Som~ of our brainies~ Americans

are found among the teacl~ers of our distric5 and city schools. Many of the foremost educat:~rs of our hind to day, at one t ime occupied the humble po- sition of a country sclmol teacher.

These are the men and women, wlm consecrate ttmir lives to the public t ra ining of our youth, and by whose efforts every boy and girl may possess a substantial equipment for earnest life work.

The C~ROmCLE believes tha t the present staff of teachers of our school is made up of this kind of t imber-- a man and six women, who possess a practical education and a love for the youth intrus5ed to their care.

In order tha t our citizens may be- come acquainted with these teachers, we give tlle following brief sketches of their lives.

o

CHAS. S. ~ r E A V E R -

Charles S. Weaver, the present prin- cipal, was born in Tuscola Co. Jan. 5, 1871. His fa ther is a well l(nown far- mer, living near Watrousville. Mr. Weaver began school life in the Watrousvilte Schools and graduated from them at tim age of seventeen. Shortly after graduation he turned his mind towards a pedagogical ca- reer. After teaching school a few years he entered Albion College and spent one year in tha t institution. Then he accepted the principalship of the schbols of his native town, which position he held for two years, l ie then entered the Albrecht-Grebus

School of Languages at Det ro i t for a short t ime and again returned t o Al- bion College. Subsequently he en- tered the University of ~ i ch igan and graduated from tl~at ins t i tu t ion wi th tlm degree of B.S. in1898. Since tha t t ime Mr. Weaver has been the Principal of our High School.

~VINNIFI%ED ) f . N E L L I S .

The Preceptress, Winnifred M. Nel- lis, is a farmer's daughter. She was born April 21, 1877, at Clarkston, N. Y. When only two years old her par- ents moved to Mason, Mich. In t he year 1896 she graduated from the Mason High School and the same fall entered Albion College. from whence she graduated receiving the degree of Bachlor of Arts.

~ELL~E ~. Wv.STLANg. Nellie M. Westland, teacher of the

Grammar Department , comes from a journalistic family. Her fattmr is the proprietor of the Grand Ledge Inde- pendent. From early childhood Miss Westland at tended school and in due t ime graduated from the High School ofh'er native town. At the age of nineteen she entered the State Nor- mal School, from whence she gradu- ated with honors. This is Miss West- land's second year in our schools.

D. oAss ~UGSLEY. The Second Intermediate Dept: is

conducted by a lady who was born on the banks of the Shiawassee River when the world was quite young. Her name is D. Cass i~ugsley and hails from Owosso. She frankly ad- mits t h a t she is a spoiled child, being the only one in the family. However, age and experience have wrought stri k- ing changes in her life. She is a lady of marked self-reliant characteristics. A t tl~e age of seventeen she entered the State Normal School from which she graduated in due t ime . Since t h a t t ime sloe has taugl~t school in this state and Illinois. Miss Pugsley has a great l iking for journalism and has gained for herself tl]e repu ta t ion of a.story writer.

I~ELLIE E. PALI~ER.

Nellie E. Palmer, who has charge of the Firs t In te rmedia te Dept., was born in Milford, Mich., Oct. 20, 1874. She has the advantages of an early school ~raining and at the age of eighteen graduated from the Milford High School. During the fall of the same year and the succeeding year she taught in a distr ict school near her home. In the year of '94 she entered the Normal College a t Ypsi-

lanti , f inishing t h e l i terary course wi th the class of '95. Since tha t time Miss Pa lmer ha{ b~ught in the !~il- ford Schools. This is her first year in our schools.

~[YaTm A. HOWXl~D. Myrtis A. Howard is a t the head of

the Second P r imary Depar tment . She was born in the township of 1VIiddle- bury, Shiawassee Co., Mich., iKarch 18, 1874. A t the age cf six she en- tered the dis t r ic t school which she aL- tended unt i l the fall of 1889, when she entered ti~e Morrice High School, finishing the four years ' course in two years. Af ter t each ing for a t ime she entered the l~Iiclfigan Nor- mal College, complet ing the literary course in June '95. Two years were then spent teaching in Shiawassee County af ter which she accepted a position in the fifth and sixth grades of the Cuss City Schools.

I~_I%Y L. :ELLIOT.

One of the most impor t an t depart- ments in our schools is t h a t o f the Kindergar ten . I t hardly can be over- es t imated. I t seeks to develope inn symmetr ica l way the physical and in- te l lec tual powers of t he child. This is accomplished by various pleasing construct ive employments sucl~ as building, folding, weaving, etc., which creates ~'delicacy of touch, quietness of movement , and deftness of h a n d . " This impor tan t workis this year in t rus ted to an experienced Kinderga r tne r , M:iss Mary L. Elliot, of Grand Rapids. Miss Ell iot comes from a pedogogical family. Her fa ther was at one t ime a prominent factor in the educat ional circles of Wayne County. She has chiefly re- ceived her educat ion in the Grand Rapids K inde rga r t en Tra in ing School. She also spent one ye:~r in the Ferris. School a t Big Rapids. Tile last six years of her life llas been entirely de- voted to Kindergar ten work. In conchmion the CHRONICLE

wishes these pablic servants abundant' success in the i r c]~osen calling and be- speaks the hear ty co-operation of all patrons of Cass City's schools.

Cram's Atlas of the World has been in our pr ivate possession for several months and I could not dispense with i t in my library and family. I cheer- fully commend i t to all teachers. The book was presented to us for consider- at ion as to placing it in our schools as a work of reference, which was unani- mously accepted.
