A card received from Eslie Jewell, 1912, informs us that she is still teaching in Inglewood, Calif., but is planning to stop and visit G. I. C. on a trip east next summer. Alma Mater always has a warm welcome for her sons and daughters when they come home. Miss Margaret Firth, '24, and Miss Pearl Hile, '26, are two of the younger alumnae to be chosen as instructors in the public schools of Grand Island. Frank Northrup is City Attorney at Council Bluffs where he handles cases involving large and important issues. Rev. Elisha Jackson, one of the early graduates, has transferred his pastorate from Gibbon to York. John Foote and his family visited Grand Island during his furlough from his work in Japan. He is situated at Osaka, where he and his wife are doing a wonderful work. Their visit here was much appreciated by those G. I. C. friends fortunate enough to meet or hear him.
