Members cf tlie jtaculty Of the H:gll
School Given Opportunity cf
Meeting the Business lien.
From Friday's Daily
Yesterday at the regular luncheon
of the. Plattsmouth Ad club the mem
bers had the pleasure of having as
the guests of the occasion members
of the faculty of the high school and
of the city school system. This was 1
the first time that many of the busi
ness men had the opportunity of
meeting the newcomers to the city i
and it was an occasion that everyone I
appreciated to the utmost. j
It is seldom that a city of this'
size boasts cf as many men in the j
faculty of thir schools and has the i
tendency to hold to a greater extent i
the interest cf the young men who
are in school and keeping them in the
school until they are graduated. The
new a,s well as the old members of
the city school teaching staff are a
fine group of gentlemen and the board
of education has shown very much
their wisdom in the selection of the
leaders in the educational work of
the city schools.
The luncheon was p-f:I-?d over v
C. C. Wesrott. president of the Ad
club and who introduced the various
members of the faculty to the assem
bled business men as the representa
tives of the great force that is train
ing the men and women of tomor
row. The members of the teaching force
present were: George E. DeWolf, su
perintendent of city schools; J. W.
Poynter. principal of the high school;
W. D McMahon, teacher of commer
cial course; I. F. Wiltse. commercial
teacher; R. B. Felton, science; F. A.
Rothert. manual training and athlet
ics; Leroy S. Fager. supervisor of
music of the city schools and B. E.
Woodward, supervisor of physical
training in the city school system.
All of the members of the faculty
were called upon for a few brief re
marks and gave a very delightful ap
preciation of Plattsmouth and its peo
ple, stressing especially the excellent
school eyfetesj that tbey hsS for.nd
here and the thoroughly genial man
ner in which they had been received
in their coming here and the pleas
ure that they had derived in the as
sociation with the Plattsmouth peo
ple. Superintendent G. E. DeWolf gave
a short sketch of the public school
system and the fact that the high
standing of the local schools and
their equipment had been one means
of attracting a large number of pu
pils from other districts to attend
the high school and receive the fin
ishing touches of their common school
education in these pleasant surround
incp. Mr. DeWolf urged the co-operation
of the business men in provid
ing employment for the boys and
girls from other points who might
wish to attend school here but had
to depend to some extent on their
own efforts between school periods in
paying their way. This assistance was
pledged bv the business men as a
part of their program in aiding the
school system of the city in growing, vs. Sylvia Weeks, et al. This case this.

needed touches to this portion of the
work of the school. The growing in
terest in the musical department was
shown by the fact that the pupils
sometimes are present at school a
half hour ahead of school time to
carry on their studies and practices
in this line of work.
Mr. Wodward. also one of the new
instructors explained his depart
ment which is that of physical edu
cation that deals with the general
physical advancement of all of the
pupils of the school, his work in
cluding the playground activities of
the smaller children as well as the
drills and exercises that are carried
on for the development of the physi
cal powers of the children of the
school at large. The specialized
lines of athletic work such as foot
ball, basketball and track are in
charge of Mr. Rothert, who has very
capably filled this position for the
past two years and is one of the most
popular of the members of the high
school teaching force among the
Plattsmouth residents.
The importance of the school and
especially in attracting outside resi
dents to this city was very much im
