We understand that , Miss Lucy Stevens, daughter of James Stevens, Base line, has resigned her position as 'teacher in Blyth Public School, having accepted a position as assist- ant in the store of Taylor & :Son. Mr. and Mrs. Edward Kemp Rob. Coates has been fortunate in securing a position on the staff of the Toronto World. It is almost needless to say that this is a good position.
