Summary

Woman of the Century — Mary A. Ripley (1893)

She resigned her position in the Buffalo high school on account of temporary failure of health. When restored physically, she entered the lecture-field, where she funds useful and congenial employment. Her present home is in Kearney, Neb., where she is active in every good word and work. Her decided individuality has made her a potent force in whatever sphere she has entered. She now holds the responsible position of State superintendent of scientific temperance instruction in public schools and colleges for Nebraska. Her duty is to energize the teaching of the State schools on that line.
