Ames, B. G. (Prof.) - 1881

Visited Columbia.--
Misses Carrie Hacker, Martha Derr and Ada Bomberger, teachers in our schools, went to Columbia on Friday to observe the workings of the primary school system in that place.  The schools there enjoy a deservedly high reputation, and the ladies express themselves as pleased with and instructed by what that saw.  Prof. B. G. Ames courteously conducted the ladies through all the primary departments, explaining the system thoroughly.
