Sir: D. Seiver is a dentist on Kedzie avenue. If I were a complete
contrib, I might head this, "Now, this isn't going to hurt a bit," but,
as I am not, I merely proceed to nominate C. O. Soots, of North Salem,
Ind., as chief chimney sweep to the Academy, and propose the Rev. Ed. V.
Belles of the First Presbyterian Church of Northville, Mich., to ring in
the new for the members. As a substitute for Mr. D. Seiver, you might
induce the nominating committee to accept Dr. J. Byron Ache, a dentist
of Uniontown, Pa.
Ballysloughguttery.
