SPECIAL COMMITTEE CALLED TO INVESTIs GATE, THE LADY TO BE SUM- MONED. The appointment of male prin- cipalsin the colored schools, un- married, is having a bad effect. It is becoming so that is is dangerous for females to teach, as well as_ fe- male pupils to have men appoint- ed in the public schools over fe- males, The resignation of a lady teacher has been tendered to the school board and accepted. The circumstances are, that a certain male principal in one ofthe school divisions, has been charged with ruining the character of one of the 4 ‘Thursdays of each week. | |tertained and amused, go to the | finest teachers in the colored public of July at Cox’s| | Plymouth Congregational church meet|on Thursday and Friday nights, Gr 0 O}ot OF, Executive | schools, This lady has been teach- | committee of District Lodge No. | ing in the 7th school division for above meeting will | invited to] t.
