Wrote a composition entitled "There's a Time for All Things" which started a campaign for the first school building in Alto, Texas. In it she declared that Alto had never been known to draw it's purse strings in public affairs. Stirred by her faith, Dr. W.L. Kirksey immediately started a subscription fot a new school building. The resulting structure, a rough frame building located at the convergence of Marcus and Ochiltree streets, also housed goat kids at night and served as a union church on Sunday.
