Married : At the home of the

F. J. Jenkins, Miss Nellie Jenkins,
age 15, to Mr. Luther Sollis, age
17, Tuesday evening, October, 15,
1907, Esq. R. A. Jones, officiat
ing. The groom’s mother, Mrs.
Jenkins, was first married to a
Mr. Sollis, and ’twas not until
last spring when she and Mr.
Jenkins were married, each being
a parent of a small number of
children at the time.
The News joins the friends of
the young married couple in ex
tending best wishes.
Perhaps no class of people meet
with so much or so severe criticism
as teachers. Much of this criti
cism is unjust and exists solely be
cause parents and others listen to
unverified reports and do nothing
to acquaint themselves with the
real inner workings of the school
room. Any person experienced
with children knows that these
reports, even when absolutely
truthful from their point of view,
cannot be relied upon. Again,
any one who has the training of
children, has experienced the mor
tifying that even the best trained
children sometimes woefully lapse
from their knowledge of good
manners and courtesy when away
from home and among other chil
dren. Some mothers will not
tolerate any correction of their
children’s manners by the teacher,
taking it as a direct insult to their
home training, when it is but the
result of childish heedlessness or
self-will. No greater injury can
be done a teacher than to condemn
her at home in the presence of
pupils. There are many, they
usually allude to a teacher as
schoolmarm, who persist in believ
ing and encouraging that a school
teacher is never to be regarded
other than suspicion.
