LEADING EDUCATOR ON STATE TICKET

Fine intelligence, a gracious personality and wholesome comeliness of character are combined in Samuel C. Ferrell, the educator. Mr. Ferrell is strong among teachers and school workers in Indiana, and in his race for superintendent of public instruction, this year, it is predicted that the influence of county superintendentsand instructors generally will be thrown in large measure to his cause. Mr. Ferrell’s many years as a district school teacher, as a high school teacher and principal, as a city superintendent at Shelbyville, and as a coun- | ty superintendent in Porter county, fit him to deal with all phases of school work in the state. His own experi-ence-working his way through college, to his A. B. degree, before he was 21 years old—gives him the viewpoint of the aspiring student, and gives him the ability to see the needs and the actualities of the school system. He has all the sympathy of the selfmade man for the’ youth who is struggling upward toward success. Mr. ' Ferrell already is known widely as a helper of the youhg. As state superin- ; tendent he will widen that reputation in a most practical and beneficent way ;

S. C. Ferrell, for Superintendent of Public Instruction.
