Show J I,Y0 NEW TEACHERS - ARE SECURED FOR E. S. A. Miss Jessie Bird of Spring ville, a .radu:ite of the University of Utah, a.ul cousin to Miss Frances Bird who t.ujiht in the Academy at two different times some years ago, will head the English and Elocution depai tments of the Emery stake acade ny, while Mr. Victor Anderson of Manti, another Un -, verity of Utah graduate, will head the science department of the Academy I ret winter. Both come highly recom- 1 mendeJ by leading educators from all over the state. j These two new but very capable instructors will take the places of Miss ' ' Zina A. Woolf, present English teacher, and Mr. Kermkh D. Kuhre, present j 8 science instructor, who have both placed f's tneir respective departments on a high ! I pUne of excellence and whose presence I will be missed in Academy and other ' I oc ; I circles where their talents have I often been drawn on in various capa j 1 citits. Miss Woolf retires from teach- ! r ir.g for the present in order to secure a j much-needed rest while Mr. Kuhre has j J accepted a position in the high school at ' i jand.v r.is home town. Pr-f. J. G McQu irrie, who has made i.inrel. tek in almost every walk of life in Emery county during his three years' teaching of woodwork and other -discus, is another man who will leave ' u;, but i. i j successor has not yet been : j d.ti i.ciy s .cured, though a couple of: excellent men are being communicated j with. Mr. McQjarrie will teach wood-: .-j vjt'a in tne 3. Y. U. at Provo next .1 uinU-r and, incidentally, finish up in a j f..volhur subj.-cts. Elder McQuarrie I ji and his family have made a host of 3 ffi-i:ds in both religious and other j ti activities and their exit will, from the !j '.fivn ini ward create a very noti ceible $ ': a:n .vh c.i will b difficult of fill ng. h Prut. Ernest Hal . erson, instructor in A m.s.c and athletics, will remain on the uaching staff and his decision to re- 3 main seems to be received with very I evident satisfaction. Prof. Halverson I I has done wonders with the band and o chestra, especially, the past winter 8 ar.d will, no doubt, make equally great strides in the other musical branches before he leaves us. He has been sjmewhat handicapped in choir work by a preponderance of new material to train, but has secured wonderful results with solo voices and quartets. Mrs. Emmer Day, "'mother of the Academy" will agiin bi with the school with her whole heart and hand, and Principal Hickman will remain as head of the institution. The very successful year just coming to a close has been a cause for great eUtion to Principjl Hickm in and all triends of the Aidemy, and from every abearance, next year will be an even b'a'Ser year in the history of this highly-efficient highly-efficient institution. 1 |
