Mr. J.H. Allen, one of the very finest county welfare workers in the state, has been promoted from that position in Rockingham county to the office of superintendent of public schools. Thoroughly alive, of splendid scholarship and upstanding, Prof. Allen will fill well the position to which he has been elected.
To fill the vacancy caused in the office of county welfare, the commissioners and county board of education have elected Miss Elizabeth Simpson, formerly the Red Cross nurse of the county. Her experience and qualification will contribute much to enable her to keep the work up to the high standard made for the office and its delicate duties by Prof. Allen.
It’s fine when these capable Red Cross nurses can be employed in the office of public service—a compromise selection is always injurious and disappointing.
