Monnett Girls’ Home Remembered And Matron Expresses Gratitude.

The matron of the Monett School for Girls has been greatly pleased lately at several~gifts to the school. Rev. C. L. Harper, of Trinity M. E. church, and County Treasurer Allman have each been instrumental in securing considerable local aid, and many of the members of the church have given fruit and .other useful things to the school. Roth Bros., the butchers, have been especially liberal in aiding the struggling young institution. Another gift received several days ago was $5 from the Tithing Band of the west side M. E. church at Lafayette. The band is composed of young people of the church and they sent $5 in money. More people at home could give some aid to this school, which is educating a number of young girls. The school has had and is having quite a struggle and persons who desire to give it assistance will be placing their charity in a worthy manner.
