    3. The Canonsburg Notes prints the following concerning a former McDonald resident: Mrs. Alice DE FRANCE of Youngstown, Ohio, who was called to Canonsburg by the death of her sister-in-law, Mrs. George T. COWAN, has gone to Irwin, where she will visit her daughter before returning home. Mrs. DE FRANCE last summer spent three months in the West. For a time she was with her son, Mack, at Little Rock, Arkansas. He holds an important position with a large electric company and is making good. She also spent a month with her sister, Mrs. N. J. SCROGGS of Des Moins, Iowa. Mrs. SCROGGS, although advanced in years, is in good health and in the full enjoyment of her mental faculties. She keeps posted on the war and all other great public questions. Mrs. SCROGGS was for many years a successful school teacher. She began her career as a teacher in the schools of Chartiers, and there are still in Houston, Canonsburg, and Chartiers and other townships a number of persons who were her pupils and who feel that they owe her, for her patience and skill in teaching them in the district schools, a debt of gratitude which they will never be able to fully repay her.
