What the source supports
That C. Agnes Miller was named the teacher of the Providence Chapel school for the 1925-26 session, and was to direct the local arrangements for its public health showing in October 1925.
Uncertainty
Read from uncorrected OCR, not from the page image. The list records appointments announced for the session, not who taught during it. The schedule names places, not schools, and gives no titles; that the people named were to direct the local arrangements follows from the item's statement about each school's principal. Whether the showing took place is not reported here. She is read as the Providence Chapel school's teacher in October because the name matches the July entry. The list gives the school only as Providence Chapel; no record for the school is linked.
