P. S.  I am sending you a list of Schools that are open or were open last report.  A few of these will want First Grade, so I will mark these with Cross (x).  I hope that you will be able to secure a good place because I know you are to be worthy of such.  The number of Second Grade Teachers is so large that I have not been called onto help, select for any one but should be asked to recommend, I can assure you that I shall take pleasure in giving you as high recommendation. as I can write.  WCH
