P. C. Z. Notes._
To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Miss Belle Hooker, of Eastover,
. has been teaching the Caney Branch
school near Leesville, but it has
closed and she is now in the Institute
trying to make a better teacher of
herself.
Miss Lizzie Seay, of class 1902,
who taught school near the Saluda
line, has closed a most successful
session, but has been re-elected to
the same position. This speaks well
for Miss Seay.
Mr. Walter Harman, of class 1902,
is again at home after having taught
the Sand Mountain school. This
was Mr. Harman's first school, but
that his services were appreciated is
shown by the fact that he has been
re-ehected already for another year.
Since Mr. Luther Long has moved
from Lexington, his daughter, Alma,
boards with her sister, Mrs. Gus
Lorick, and attends the Iostitute.
Miss Eva Derrick, who was once a
student at the Institute, has closed
a successful school near Columbia
and is now at the home of her
