Better Than Solomon

A rural colored school district in the South had one particular school that gave endless trouble. They changed from men teachers to women and back again, but it did no good. Always the kids made trouble for the teacher.

Until one day a bright looking young colored man applied for a teaching job and allowed he was willing to try a tough assignment. So they sent him to the rowdy school. He started in, a tall, thin, smiling young teacher. Strange to relate no bad news came from that school from then on, although the superintendent of education

Higgins-McDonough kept expecting it. Finally he got in his car and drove over there. Three months had made a great change. The classes seemed in good order, and the school was evidently operating in efficient and workmanlike manner. But the biggest change was in the teacher. He was still confident and smiling, but had gained so much weight he was hard to recognize.

Miss Eileen Mary McDonough became the bride of Jack Higgins in Oakland, Calif ., on September 30, 1948.

Mr. Higgins is a member of the office staff of J. E. Higgins Lumber Company, San Francisco. They flew to Honolulu October 1 on a two rveeks' honeymoon trip.

"FIow did you do it?" the superintendent asked him. "Easy, Suh," said the teacher. "Whenevah a pupil starts acting up, I eats his lunch."
