uJljr 1U2 I iMaijflmiu’r Ye Pilgrim Plymouth High School May 10, 1935 (Washington News.) St. John’s Cathedral in Wash- ington, D. C. has been com- pleted after a period of five year’s work. It is indeed the world’s greatest cathedral, surpassing all others in grandeur, and in beauty. The plans were originally di ' awn by Mr. Harry Scott, one of the world’s greatest archi- tects. Mr. Scott first became noted during the erection of the Alta bell tower in New York City, for which, plans that he submitted, were ac- cepted. Word has been received from Mr. and Mrs. Harold Koontz on their cotton plan- tation near Botteneau, North Dakota, among the Turtle mountains, that Mr. and Mrs. Charles Goodman, near Kan- chou, China, are coming home for a visit. These two couples, remaining as in- separable as they were in high school days, have been in constant communication with each other, by means of their radio, although they have been separated by sev- eral thousand miles. Mr. and Mrs. Goodman have been in China, in the rice business, but they have decided to take up their residence, once more in the United States. (Cleveland Press.) Miss Nettie Rhumphrey of Culver, Indiana, has taken first prize in the International type- writing contest, held here May 6. She excelled all con- testants in accuracy, and speed. Previous to this, she has received many medals, won in speed tests. She graduated from the high school of Plymouth, Indiana, in 1923. When Miss Rhum- phrey was interviewed she modestly said that she owes her success to a streak of luck, and not to any high school training. (Kansas Limited.) Miss Cecelia Sester, for several years a clerk in the ready made department of the Twenty Ladies’ Department Store, has been promoted to the position of head clerk. Miss Sester came from Plymouth, Indiana, five years ago, and has proven to be a most efficient clerk. The company employs sixty-eight clerks, and such a position as head clerk i ' s quite an honor. Death notice: Mr. Harry Hollinshead died suddenly, yesterday noon with a stroke of apoplexy. He has been afflicted with a sweet tooth for several years, and speci- alists think this was the culmination of that disease. Funeral services will be an- nounced later. For Taxi Service call 4592. Night or Day, anywhere. Everett Jamison. The noted fashion design- ers, Misses Helen South and Blanche Peterson, have come from Chicago to our city to establish a shop at 509 North State Street. Here they will exhibit the latest styles of women’s wearing apparel. They will also conduct a mil- linery trade in their outfit. They have had extensive training in this line of work, and since 1926, they have been designers for fashion magazines, throughout the entire country. The infirmary of Logans- port has obtained a new head clerk. Who should it be but Miss Eva Webster, State Di- rector of Home Economics for the past two years. The motive for her change in po- sition was that, in the insti- tution, her knowledge would be used more advantageous- ly. She has had a great deal of experience, and conse- quently, the inmates of the home will receive great bene- fit from her being there. Notice, at 7:30 tonight at the Lincoln H. S. auditorium — James Seymour speaks on “Men’s Rights”. As Mr. Seymour is widely versed in this subject, his address will be of great interest to all. Members of schools will be greatly interested in a hypo- dermic recently discovered by Dr. Edith Boyer of Two Forks, Indiana. This hypo- dermic, when injected into the arm on the night before finals, has such an effect up- on a body, that knowledge, unheard of before, will re- veal itself at the critical moments. This hypodermic, a chemical compound, is very hard to obtain, and is of a very high price. But it has been tried in a few cases, and has been found to be success- ful. The Model Chautauqua Company is scheduled to ap- pear here this summer in the middle of June. This com- pany is noted all over the United States, and we hope that it will live up to the ex- pectations of Plymouth. With its troupe are Miss Katherine Gam, famous pianist, and Miss Athalind Kellison, solo- ist and dramatic reader. They have been in the com- pany for two years, and it will be a pleasure to hear them. Buy your tickets early! Coming. Rialto — One week from to- morrow night — “The Tonic,” comic opera playing Albert Wetmore. Reserve tickets are on sale now at the Model Pharmacy. Mr. James Fox, of our city, has recently acquired the position as Professor of accounting in the commercial Department of Columbia Uni- versity. Having a talent for this line of work, he has ad- vanced so far, that this honor could be bestowed upon him. He studied commercial work in Indiana University, where he obtained his degree, and since then, he has been the head of the commercial de- partment of the Ridgeway High School in Indianapolis.
