work than physician's who have
not had this experience.

has been attending summer school
returned from teachers examina
tion Friday evening and thinking
that a little experience in setting

galleys, which is about as much
as the average apprentice gets
done in a week. She will leave
soon for her home in Crook Co.
where she will teach during the
coming year.
