Faculty Prophecy BY H. M. MCQUISTON Many Newton people will be shocked and grieved to learn that Mr. Wilbur who was for several years an efficient teacher of Physics in the Newton High School brought an end to his earthly trouble by committing suicirle yester- day at his bachelor ' s quarters in No Man ' s Land. No definite reason has yet been given for his rash act. Some who are more intimately associated with him say that he has again been disappointed in love while others say that he was temporarily insane — due, no doubt, to the fact that for several years he has been trying to convince himself as to the truth of his newly discovered law in Physics, namely — that for every man in the world there is a woman. COURT PROCEEDINGS. Mrs. Sadie Montgomery was granted a divorce yesterday from Vincent Montgomery on the grounds of too much affection. Newton people all join in wishing for both, a long and lone- some life of single blessedness. Miss Portner, the celebraterl suffragette will tour Egypt this summer and give a series of speeches. Miss Portner was always in favor of woman sufferiiig and we believe she will be fully repaid foriher untiring efforts. Miss Clara Broderick, English teacher in the High School has discovered the secret of eter- nal youth and through the columns of our paper wishes to pass it on to her friends. It lies in the simple motto — Laugh, and show your — teeth. Miss McKee has recently acquired fame from her little booklet entitled The Art of Studying Algebra. This has always been a great prob- lem in the minds of her algebra students and no doubt the book will become very popular. M ' lle La Campbelle is again numbered among the Newton people. She has established ner up-to-date beauty parlors at the corner of 6th and Grand Ave., and solicits the patronage of her many friends here. She and her assistant M ' lle La Conybeare have just returned from Paris. — Adv. Extre! Speshul! Miss Lora Rhinehart, greatest exponent of Shakespeare ' s Tragsdies will be the attraction at Lister ' s Opera House tonight. Everyone m Newton should be there to see her for she comes straight from Chicago where she was the hit of the season. Rumor ]:as it that Miss Needles and Miss Zoe Frazier, two distinguished Red Cross nurses have gone to Europe to care for the wounded soldiers. Both of these ladies were formerly associated with the N. H. S. Miss Laura Killduff has resigned her position as teacher in the High School. She has decided that the change of occupation, from school teaching to housekeeping will be a benefit to her and she believes in taking a chance. A telegram was received here telling of the tragic death of Mr. E. S. Baird. Particulars of the disaster will be given in the next issue of this paper. Since he resigned his position as Manual Training teacher for the Newton schools he has been employed by the managers of a circus and was killed while capturing a lion in South Africa. This comes as saa news to his many friends here. Wa take pleasure in announcing the engage- ment of Miss Elizabeth Lamb to — cook for the patients in the new hospital at Newton. Miss Lamb makes some wholesome eatins and no doubt the patients will be convalescent in a short time as a result of her good cooking. Miss Vesta Beard, the celebrated text-book writer has just written her latest book entitled, Hints for Latin Students. Although it has only been published recently it is proving to be very popular with the pupils of Newton High. Friends of Mr. and Mrs. 0. .1. Browning have received word saying that they are delighted with their new home in New York City. Mr. Browning has acquired a great deal of wealth and fame from his invention of the bookkeeping machine and they have purchased a magnificent home where they may enjoy their old age. Miss Johnson recently won a gold medal at the tennis tournament in Indianapolis. We take pleasure in reporting the success of this popular teacher. Miss Lucy E. Hall has resigned her position as Principal of Newton High and will leave the first of the week for the famous health resort at Honolulu. She has been failing in health lately and she goes there at the advice of lier physician. All of us wish for her a speedy recovery. Miss Carrie E. Miles left yesterday for the Hawaiian Islands where in company with a troupe of natives she will make a series of the famous Hawaiian victrola records.
