Jl ' DCK JllKN tJl ' KIHK B. M. lATTUT. IlENKV LlKHRMAK When Stephen (J. Wentworth founded the Wentworth Military Academy in 1880 he vented the control of the institution with its original buildings and grounds in the bands of a Board of Trustees which was to be composed of a duly elected representative of each of the Evangelical churches of the city of Lexington, and a President. Mr. Wentworth served as President of the Board from 1880 until his death in 1897. at which time he was succeeded by Judge Richard Field. It is the duty of the Board to see that the management of the Academy is entrusted to competent officers and that the standards set by Mr. Wentworth in the original charter are maintained. All members of the Faculty are voted on by the Board and it is provided that such officers in addition to being duly qualified scholastically for the teaching re- quired, must, be men or women of Christian character regularly affiliated with some Evan- gelical church. The Board passes on all diplomas before they are issued to graduates and authorizes the President to sign and i -ue them. The Academy owes no smnll part of its success to the supervision and inspiration furnished by the men who have served on the Itoard of Trustees for the past fifty-one years.

They know that a |: boy ' s character is forming while he is in high school and college. Si He is changing from boyhood to manhood. How will he develop? IffiiSnjEpMSsUj HiH school environment t a large extent determines the suc- cess with which he pusses this trying period. Sometimes we par- ents are late to realize some of the things transpiring l efore us, and all too frequently a shook is required to open our eyes. Wise parents should period- ically ask themselves: — Is our son doing as well as he should in his present school? Is he learning to take on responsibilities? Is he becoming robust and munly? Are his asso- ciates of the best ? Do we thoroughly understand his problems and needs; do we have his confidence and know how he uses his leisure time? In school does he study properly? Is any control exercised over his spare time and his asso- ciates? Are his teachers men who understand boy nature and sympathetically assist him in hia studies and in adjustment to school life, or is he under women who find it impossible to understand him in his school work? Does he study in the evenings? If he is through with high school is he ready for the freedom of the large university? Will he be able to do his best in large classes without personal at- tention and interest on the part of his instructors? Is he nufficienlly matured to accept the responsibility of organizing his t ime and interests in a great uni- versity? Here at Wentworth we have been endeavoring to answer such queries for half a century and u school nationally known for its work with boys and young men has developed. A parent has one boy ' s problems to meet while here we have those of hundreds. The school is organized to anticipate a boy ' s wants and needs and to direct him to those things which will give him a well rounded rational development enabling him to realize his best possibilities. The Wentworth plan recognizes interest and direction as the superior tools with which to fashion a man. and you will find nothing of the driving, harsh sys- tem of authority often deemed synonymous with military discipline. You will find at Wentworth a splendid group of democratically organized boys with whom you will l e delighted to have your son associated. I trust the following pages will be enlightening and of much interest con- cerning what the Academy offers your boy. 5. SELLERS.

It was the con- viction of the founder, Stephen G. Went- worth. his board of trustees, and the dent of the Academy that a military board- ing school offers the most effective possible means of giving boys and young men a scho- lastic, physical, and moral training which will develop in GENERAL PLAN No Waste Time The work of the Academy is so organized that there is no time wasted in idleness. From reveille to taps practically every hour of the day is utilized in some form of in- teresting work or valuable recreation. Small Classes The best schobistic results cannot be ob- tained in large classes where the instructor is overload and cannot give a portion of his lime each day to the progress and wel- fare of every student. It is the plan at Wentworth to keep all classes large enough to create a good claas spirit but small enough for the instructor to maintain a personal contact with all of his students. Instructors Live At the Academy The instructors live in barrack with the boys and have much contact with the stu- tter Ettvm ♦ WENTWORTHfMI LIT ARY AC AD E MY Tin (irn Towm.

A true spirit of friendship exists between teachers and students and this relationship is of great value. Supervised Study The supervised study periods are of suf- ficient length for the proper preparation of lessons. Besides the vacant periods of the day. two hours each evening, from seven to nine, are devoted to study and those who de- sire may continue to study until taps al ten. Men Teachers and Competition With Boys For boys of preparatory and junior col- lege age it is believed that men teachers who are professionally trained and who under- stand boy nature can get the best results. A normal red-hloodi-d American laiy is also in- clined to enjoy competition and association with other boys in class work. Reports Sent Home Scholastic reports and personal letters are sent home at frequent intervals in order that parents may In? kept in close touch with the progress and standing of the student and may co-operate with Academy authorities in inspiring the boy to his best efforts. Moral and Religious Instruction It is the constant aim of Wenlworth to create a wholesome moral and religious en- vironment for the students, and to impress upon their minds the ideal of clean living anil clean thinking. A correct moral atmos- phere pervades all school activities and school life. Through a I w lanced day of work, play and study, the morale of the corps is always high. I ' ai t Txrtlvr ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACAD E MY Skkimm ' Kakhwm.i. Cxukmonx at tiw Fi.au Inasmuch ns the student comes into close contact with his teachers, this close associa- lion tends toward Hn upbuilding of ideals and a strengthening of morals. The honor system of discipline is a feature of Wrnt- worth life. The placing of each individual upon his own honor has been a strong factor in the building of manhood nt the school. The general policy of the school is con- trolled by a Board of Trustees composed nf representatives of Protestant churches of the city. Wentworth is strictly non-sectarian, al- though it emphasizes religious instruction and church attendance. Every cadet is re- quired to attend Sunday services each week at one of the Lexington churches. A Cultural Background No school is complete unless there is n background for instilling into the lives nf the students an appreciation of the beautiful and the cultural. The truly educated per- son is a truly cultured one, one who has learned to appreciate the finer things of life. This environment of culture is kept as a constant ideal at Wentworth. It is the cub- lorn to make the chapel exercises a daily source of spiritual inspiration for the stu- dents. The chapel periods are held four day a week at 1 p. m. Physical Training It is the object of the school not alone to develop athletes, but to give every boy in school that physical training which he needs. Owing to the fact that the life at Wentworth is so regular and so conducive to the liest physical development, her teams usually are exceptionally strong. It is to be noted, however, that the school never loses sight of a boy who is not the star athlete, and that he is trained along athletic lines as well as is the boy who is able to make the team. All Interested The athletic teams are composed of volun- teers, but every boy is required to engage in some form of athletics. It is the aim of the school to provide coaches for as many teams as can be organized. Papr Thtrtrrn ♦ WENT WORTH ♦MILITARY ♦ ACADEMY ♦ The Competitive Sports Six ti ten football teams are developed and trained by various memliers of the faculty. In basketball, l esides the school Loams which compete with other schools, each com- pany ha two teams and a tournament is held for the company championship. Track ath- letics, baseball, swimming, soccer, boxing, wrestling, tumbling and tennis are carried out along the same lines. Teams in tumbling are developed under an expert instructor and give occasional exhibi- tions at basketball games or at home talent snows. Military Drills There is no better means of physical ex- ercise than that afforded by the military drill. It teaches self-control and gracefulness of carriage. It develops those muscles which are most needed throughout life. One hour of each school day is devoted to drill, and there are other military formations of short duration which the cadet attends daily. At all formations he is taught to hold his should- ers back, his chest out, his head up. and his face squarely to the front. The form of physical exercise used by our army camps in developing soldiers is used almost every day at Wentworth. No effort is made to turn cadets to the army or war. While each cadet is trainer! to lie an officer il lie so desires, the military work primarily furnishes the In si basis known for mental and discipline. Work In the Gymnasium During bad weather, when it is impossible to have outdoor drill, much of the drill period is devoted to gymnasium work. This work is very interesting and highly beneficial for physical development. The gymnasium is open at all times and during recreation hours many of the cadets find profitable pleasure in boxing, wrestling, and working on the gymnasium apparatus . Social Life The social life of the Academy is abund- antly adequate to give the students the recreation, culture, and ease of manner which properly go with a fOOi education. Parties and entertainments are given at intervals at such times as not to interfere with the regular work. The spirit of chiv- alry naturally accompanies military training and the Iwaring of the cadets in social con- tact ia always a matter for favorable comment. l t ru tt rt ttvf m tr 11 ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY II n :■ 1 I J 1 WB8T ENT1UNC TO GYMNASIUM Music The school offers exceptional opportunities to boys who have musical talent in its hand, orchestra, and glee club. Frequently during past years the Academy Band has been called upon to furnish music in parades in Kansas City and nearby cities, and in ex- ecution and appearance it did not suffer in comparison with the large professional bands appearing on the same occasions. The orchestra plays for chapel, receptions and dances. From time to time solo numbers are given and the corps engages in com- munity singing. Personalities Developed While the discipline at Wentworth is firm, it is not at all harsh. Very little punishment of any kind is necessary. The punishment that is assigned is always of a military nature and not the kind which will in any- way humiliate a boy. Students who cannot be handled without physical compulsion are sent home. The aim of the disciplinary department is the development of personalities. a great deal of responsibility rests on the students themselves. Many cases of disci- pline are handled by the students and the conduct of the student body is the crystaliza- tion of popular sentiment rather than of an oppressive system of regulations. In short the plan of Wentworth has as its object the developing of American citi- zens — men who are mentally alert, phys- ically sound, and courageous enough to take prominent parts in the educational, religious, commercial and physical life of their I 13 a ■ I THX HOMB or COMfANY C rage Ftfte ♦WENTWORTH4MILITARYiACADEMYf The Fuwt Company at Wkntwortu HISTORICAL Wl ' ENTWORTH is a well known English name and many prominent men of Europe and America have been its proud possessors. The ancestors of the founder of Went worth Military Academy. STEPHEN G. WENTWORTH, came from England early in the eigh- teenth century, settling in Mr. Weritworth came West when a boy and settled in Missouri. He was prosperous in business and concluded his long and successful career as President of the Morrison-Wcntworth Bank at Lexington, Missouri. Mr. Wentworth was always a literal con- 77w A.m. ' New England. tnl utor to educational and benevolent causes, and in 1880 he conceived the idea of founding, in honor of his deceased son, Wil- liam Wentworth, a school for the Christian education of boys and young men. Suitable grounds and buildings were secured and the first session opened in September. 1880, with B. L. Hobson and Sand ford Sellers a ciate principals. At the end of that Mr. Hohaon retired, since which time Col. Sellers has remained the head of the Acad- emy, and in active management of its affairs. A charter was secured in April. 1881. and the name Wentworth Male Academy, under which the school Iwgan itn existence, was changed to Wentworth Military Academy. Thus was started the first military in the Missouri River Valley.

Ex- cepting the matter of ap- propriations the same re- lation was established be- tween the Academy and the State of Missouri as exists hctwoe n W est Point Military Academy and the United States. Recognition by the Government In 1895 the War De- partment of the United Slates, recognizing the work done by the Acad- emy in its military - train- ing, detailed an officer from the Regular Arm as Professor of Military Science and Tactics and supplied it with ordnance and ordnance stores. This detail has continued to the present time and supplies have been increased until the school is now provided with everything necessary for infantry drills.

Hoge resigned his po- sition of Inspector of Accredited Schools for the University of Mis- souri and was chosen As- sociate Superintendent and Principal of the Academy. He remained in this position for twelve years and had an impor- tant influence in develop- ing the standards of the Academy. Col. E. A. Hickman, then a Captain in the 1st Cavalry. U. S. Army, an alumnus of Wentworth, was detailed as Profes- sor of Military ' Science and Tactics. His untiring energy, good judgment and interest in Iwys, to- gether with his experi- ence as an officer in the United States Army, were a most potent fac- tor in placing the Acad- emy in the very front rank of military schools of the United States. Major R. K. Latham came to the Academy as an instructor in 1914. As Assistant Superintendent he rendered much valuable service during the difficult war period.

But. while the war increased the attendance and the enthuaiasm of the students, it worked a hardship on the school by taking many from the Faculty aa army officers. Since Wentworth furnished more than six hundred and fifty soldiers, sailors and ma- rines to the country, the days of fighting in F.urope were days of anxiety at the Academy. This and other incidents of her history, however, have only served to enrich the glor- ious traditions without which no school is worthy of the name. Through nearly half a century Wentworth has builded traditions of honor, patriotism and industry which well justify her position among the leaders of the country ' - The now spacious grounds and numerous buildings are but. the cumula- tive results of years of honest endeavor.

It is an attractive city of comfortable homes, modern business houses, public buildings, and broad streets. It has excellent systems of light, water, gas and sewerage. Its location, two hundred and ten feet above the Missouri river, is both beautiful and healthful. Not far from Wentworth Military Acad- emy is the site of the battle of Lexington, an important battle of the Civil War. l,exing- ton is an old historic city whose population includes many of the oldest and most cultured families of the sUte. The cadets live in an environment of refinement. Transportation Facilities Lexington is 13 miles from Kansas City. It in easily reached by rail on two branches of the Missouri Pacific and the main lines of the Santa Fe and Wnbash. The l exington Station of the Santa He and Wabash is at Henrietta where all trains are met by taxi- cabs. The city is on Federal Highway 21 and State Highway US and has frequent bus serv- ice to and from Kansas City. In The Heart of America Wentworth is fortunate in being near Kan sas City, the Heart of America, one of the largest cities of the West. Here there is an abundance of cultural and artistic talent. Ca- dets may attend the [K?rformaiices of re- nowned artists under faculty supervision. At Kansas City, also, the services of nation- ally known medical specialists are available, should occasion arise. Yet the school is far enough away to miss the less desirable fea- tures of a city and the cadets are not allowed furloughs to the city except in rase of emergency. Many Colleges in Missouri Missouri has a large numlier of colleges. In many ways this is n distinct advantage. The associati ons l etween the students of these schools in their various competitions, the associations between the faculties, and the frequent educational conferences among the institutions, all tend to keep the stand- ards at a high level. There is a decided stimu- lation to achievement in the healthy and friendly rivalry between the different schools. The Climate Lexington is located in central Missouri. The climate here is ideal for a school, since it is cool enough to be invigorating and to offer the winter sports, such as skating and sleighing, and at the same time it is mild enough not to subject the students to the rigors of a more northern locality. The cadets can be out of doors comfortably prac- tically all of the school year. Lexington Is Hioh Abovx the HrvTO.

This four-block stretch of cool shade and beauty gives Wentworth a distinctive atmosphere of home. The back campus includes athletic and drill fields, rifle ranges, and natural fastnesses ideal for hikes or military maneu- vers. A fine new stadium graces the west end of the campus. There are eight thoroughly modem build- ings on the campus. The buildings have all been designed fur their present use and are of brick and stone construction with steam and hot water heat. They are Administra- tion Building and Science Hall, Hickman Hall, R Barracks, Gymnasium, Superin- tendent ' s Residence, Principal ' s Residence, Hospital.

Each room is pro- vided with a wardrobe, a comfortable iron double-deck bed, two chairs and a table with student stand electric light. Or course, the rugs and any decorations are furnished by the cadet. Each room is well heated by either hot water or steam. Lavatories, with hot and cold running water at all times, are located on the various floors, making them very convenient to each room. The toilets are also convenient to every room and they are of modern and sanitary design. Every precaution with regard to deanliness and sanitation is taken. Shower baths are also conveniently located in the barracks and hot and cold water may be had at all limes. The rooms are all convenient for escape in case of fire, and sufficient fire drill is held to insure safety to all cadets. A night watch- man is constantly on duty.

Very recently three new modern and com- pletely equipped science laboratories and lec- ture rooms have been added. Food Supply The Academy table is set with whole- some, nutritious and well-cooked foods, of which an abundant supply is always served. Special efforts are made to see that, all meals are properly balanced to suit the needs of the growing boy.

Water Supply The Academy is located on the outskirts of Lexington about one-half mile from the business district. The air is fresh and pure at all times and a more healthful location could not be found. The water is furnished by the Missouri River. Before being pumped to the city, it is settled, cleared and purified. The Academy, however, is not satisfied with this general treatment and has installed a system of modern filters, which furnishes a pure and abundant supply of water. The Hospital The Hospital is located one-half block from the Academy, a distance which is convenient- ly close and at the same time far enough away to isolate completely any case of con- tagious or infectious disease. It is a nine- room building and is completely equipped for the handling of any case of illness which might arise. There are twenty-five beds in the hospital, eight of them in the large ward and others in the smaller rooms.

Every precaution is taken with regard to sanita- tion, and the Academy officers, who are all instructed along this line, are constantly vigilant as to the condition of the buildings nnd premises. Personal Medical Inspection Approved modern methods of prevention are employed by the school. Every cadet is required to be vaccinated for smallpox nnd typhoid fever, two of the most prevalent diseases in community life. It is interesting to note that since these requirements have been met there has lieen no case of either disease at the Academy. Also, each cadet upon entrance is required to undergo a thorough medical inspection by the school physicians and assistants. As seen by the accompanying illustrations, the inspection is thorough and complete. A de- tailed record of the findings is kept. There may bit other similar inspections during the year. The Laboratories Very recently entirely new lal oratories have been built and equip|«d. These occupy the center and west wings of the Adminis- tration Building; these wings are now known as Science Hal. These laboratories are scientifically planned and equipped to com- ply with any college or university standard. In addition to making the study of science to college men a pleasure, they are also used by the high school students, giving them an unexcelled opportunity at college facilities.

In the Commandant ' s (irwt GENERAL REGULATIONS AS IT is the object of the Academy tip develop each cadet to hi highest stage of efficiency, all the regulations for the daily routine are formulated with this object in mind. During the recreation period from 4:10 to 5:50 P. M. cadets are engaged in athletics or other activities about the Academy and are not expected to go more than two blocks from the Academy grounds, except by permission. It is not deemed advisable for cadetB to be about town except on business or for reason- able recreation and yet it is not desired to take them entirely away from contact with civil institutions. Two days — Wednesday and Saturday — are therefore designated for freedom of limits during the recreation period, so that all may have opportunity for attending to necessary purchases in Lexing- ton. No permits to call or to attend the picture show are granted to new cadets except to Junior College students until after Christ- After Christmas new cadets may call or attend the show on permit on Saturday evenings, provided their conduct and atten- tion to duty has been satisfactory during the preceding week. During the fall term new cadets may attend the picture show in a squad on Saturday evenings. Requirements for Admission Wentworth Military Academy makes no special examination for admission. It merely requires that boys be in good physical con- dition, of good character and ready for high school work. A certificate from other schools as to doss standing is essential in classifying a new cadet. Special attention is given to the weak points in the boy ' s previous training and his deficiencies in any direction noted in order to be overcome. Cadets should enter as near the beginning of the session as possible, and it is in all cases understood that this is at least for the entire session, or for that part of the school year remaining at time of entrance, must be made accordingly. } ' agt Twentif $ix ♦WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY The Gymnasium Lawn No exception is made to this rule, except in case of sickness, necessitating permanent withdrawal. Dismissal Wentworth enjoys distinction in being one of the best schools in the Middle West and distinctly does not wish undesirable boys. In case of dismissal of a student from the school, the refund of money paid in or can- cellation of indebtedness already incurred will be at the option of the management. The Academy reserves the right to demand the withdrawal of any student without the milking of specific charges. If a boy ' s | ns ence is felt to be unwholesome, or if he has a degrading influence on those around him. or has been guilty of conduct unbecoming a gentleman, he will he asked to leave. Furloughs Furloughs of any kind constitute a consid- erable break in the routine, hampering the scholastic and military work seriously, as well as handicapping the individual. It has been found necessary ' to limit furloughs, aside from the regular Christmas holidays, to not more than two a year for earh cadet. These must be taken at certain definite times designated by the authorities. Furloughs will not be granted at other times except in case of death or serious ill- ness in the immediate family, or other home The ethical value of doing right from fear of punishment is doubtful. If a boy will not conduct himself properly without being afraid of some penalty, he is not the kind of student wanted at Wentworth. As a matter of fact, most American boys display a proper regard for right or wrong when correctly ap- proached. They can be brought to think of others and to cherish their own self-respect. ♦WENTWORTHfMILITARY ACADEMY A Toi. ' rn ament Match On the Tennis Courts Tnr Mai uiNr r.i-KM «;kt Attention At Wentworth the disciplinary department is organized not for the purpose of exercising restraint and curbing the spirits of the stu- dents, but for the purpose of directing the spirits of the student 1 : in the proper chan- nels. Thus a boy who is reported for an in- fraction of the rules lias a talk with the com- mandant or the assistant commandant. His case then is handled individually as his par- ticular need may appear. A Family Visit In tub Rbgistkab ' s Office The discipline is strict without being harsh. The boys are under careful supervis- ion and are required to perform their regular duties, which keep them abundantly busy. But they are not driven to their tasks by fear or made sullen by continuous punish- ments. A real individual with a sense of re- s|H nsibility is the result of this system. The students themselves have a large share in the discipline. ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY Rkady ran CAl4aTtllCNlC8 ,, KuATun Drill I ' agr Tumtv-ninr ♦ WENTWORTH4MILITARY4ACADEMY SCHOLASTIC AND MILITARY RECOGNITION Importance and Meaning of Membership In the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools Membership. The membership of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools is composed of the leading colleges and preparatory schools in twenty states. Standard. The standard set by the Asso- ciation for the Secondary Schools is that the curriculum shall be broad enough and the subjects thoroughly enough taught amply to prepare the student who graduates for the best colleges and universities in this country, including the Government academies. West Point and Annapolis. Inspectors. The Association maintains a Hoard of Inspectors, the members of which, by means of written reports and personal inspection, keep in close touch with the work of each school and make a report of their observation to the Association each year. If the work of any school is not up to the required standard, this school is, of course, dropped from the Association. Recognition: Both the High School and the Junior College have been accredited by this association and the work in both is fully approved. Both organizations are likew ise approved by the University of Missouri. It would not be possible for the institution to secure higher approval than that furnished by the recognition of these agencies. Such approval makes it possible for graduates of either department to enter any institution in this country which receives students by cer- tification. Under the standards set by these organizations the work of the school is so designed as best to prepare every student for the advanced courses that he is to follow. The Importance and Meaning of Govern- ment Supervision— Honor School Wentworth is directly supervised by the War Department of the United States Gov- ernment. An active army officer, assisted by an active army non-commissioned officer. Is in charge of the military instruction. Fifty thousand dollars ' worth of equipment is furnished the Academy by the War De- partment for instruction purposes. For sev- eral years Wentworth has been designated Honor School, the highest rating given by the War Department. Page Thirty ♦WENTWO RTHfMILITARY ACADEMY Honor Society Seated: Strrh ' n, K..

HONORS AND REWARDS Honor Society Student somewhat above the average in scholarship, military work, athletics and character are accorded membership in the Wentworth Honor Society. Members are elected twice each year. A student may be very excellent in one department and win distinction but utterly neglect the work of other equally important phases of school life. It is the object of this Society to honor the man who docs good work in all departments — the really deserving individual. Member- ship in the Society is highly coveted by all cadets. A red and white service bar desig- nates these men and the Society gold emblem is awarded when the distinction is won twice. Scholarship To the cadet having the highest scholastic average for the school year a gold medal is awarded. A silver medal is offered for sec- ond place and a bronze medal for third place.

Gold emblems are generally furnished to Conference Championship teams. Members of Junior and Senior Athletic So- cieties receive medals. Winners in Boxing and other tournament comiH.4itions receive medals or other suitable rewards. Members of company teams are allowed to wear their company letters and suitable awards arc given winning company teams. In Track the customary medals and cups are presented in the various meets in which the teams compete.

Character A gold medal is annually offered to the student having the highest record in deport- ment for the year. A silver medal is awarded for the second place. Students having superior standing in de- l ortment are announced by the Commandant at the close of each six weeks ' grade period and those students may wear service bars on their uniforms to indicate their standing.

GENERAL SCHOLASTIC METHODS AND INFORMATION All u-ark; High Sdnml .imi Colli . , . ,H V „,,,,,i,,i.t h; Ihr North Crntral Anooeiulion of Coltrgrn anil Secondary School Although the type of education (riven at Wentworth is many-Bided, although strong emphasis is placed upon the development of the young man in every respect, physical, mental, and moral, yet the thing upon which the school lays the greatest emphasis, the thing upon which it prides itself more than all else, is its scholastic standard. There is no compromise in this work ; it has to be the best that can be given : the instructors have to Ik- the best men that can be procured, and the system is so designed as to give the maximum concentration on the learning process, so that a student cannot fail to equip himself properly if he is at all open to in- struction. The past year the standard of scholarship has been the highest in the school ' s history. High School and College Bulletins A comprehensive treatment of scholastic methods, a statement of the aims of the in- stitution, and a description of the courses of study in full detail are given in separate Bulletins published by the Academy. One of these is devoted to the High School and the other to the Junior College. In these bul- letins will be found listed a most progressive and forward-looking array of courses that are designed to prepare a young man thor- oughly for almost any type of work that he may care-to makeshift specialty.

Wentworth uses special care in the selec- tion of its faculty. These men must not only he highly qualified in the work that they are to teach — they must not simply be special- ists in their fields — hut they must also qual- ify under a much higher standard as red- blooded men of insight and probity. They must be men of excellent character and they In the Qualitative Analysis Laboratory must know how to deal with boys. It is sur- prising how many complications are avoided by having boys under men teachers of un- derstanding. Faculty men live in the barracks with the students. This offers an ideal situation. Teachers are present at almost all times to help the l oys in their work; they arc there to see that the study hour is kept quiet, and they exercise an almost constant supervision I ' tiffi Sixty-two ♦ WENTWORTHfMILITARYiACADEMY A BKAimnx Away or Fiaiwkjw StuuuitNtw tmk Mkmoriai. his goal. It is hard to conceive of an in- stitution which could offer more in the mat- ter of constant personal guidance than does Went worth. This is a service which appeals to boys of extraordinary ability. No other kind of service is able to offer them such an opportunity to develop their Igttatj pow- ers. If this were the only thing the school had to offer, it would he eminently worth while for a boy to attend Wentworth. Class Methods The classes j n Wentworth are very sm.ill.

It is hard for him to go wrong when there is a friend and adviser near him who knows his failings and can anticipate his aberrations. Nearly every boy who has achieved something in the world can point back to some fine teacher aa the source of his inspiration, without which he might never have started toward Pag Surty-thrtr t ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY Tur. New There is every opportunity for individual at- tention to the student and a study of his par- ticular needs. The lecture method of instruction finds m place in the work either in junior college or high school. The student is called upon to recite every day: he is led to develop ini- tiative, and it is not left to him to decide whether he will take part in the clans work or not He is bound to do so. There is a weekly check of the work of every student. Each boy doing unsatisfac- tory work is reported to the Dean ; he is then deprived of certain privileges which he has enjoyed, and is required to put in additional time on his study; if necessary, under the supervision of an instructor. Furthermore, unsatisfactory work does not mean simply failing work. The student who is not doing all that he is capable of doing is considered an unsatisfactory stu- dent: every attempt is made to discourage the old attitude of gotting-by which has so permeated much of our educat ional work. The systematic routine at Wentworth, which takes care of nearly all a boy ' s time, is calculated to bring out the best in him. Absence of a multitude of distracting in- fluences, definite division of work and play so that neither prevails to An Adequate Studv Hall Wkll Vagt Sixty-four ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY4 Lration of effort. military orderliness nnd efficiency— all these combine to lend the boy into n mode of life that will mnke him suc- cessful. rersonnei jervice One feature of Wentworth service which embodies the latest discoveries in the field of psychology, and which is as yet found in few schools, is the personnel service under u practical student of psychology. Wentworth makes a careful personal study of each Imy from every standpoint. After such a study the school is able to predict with almost un- erring accuracy the degree of success of the pupil. Most school failures are not due to poor intelligence, but to other things. The Academy makes an earnest endeavor to find the trouble and correct it if such correction is possible. This service is valuable to students who have previously had trouble in school, but it is equally valuable to the brilliant student, for it offers him sane guidance into those channels which will give the fullest develop- ment to his innate abilities. It is not safe to entrust the development of a boy into man- hood to any hit-and-miss method. Only a careful personal study and constant per- sonal contact can possibly give the best edu- cation. Wentworth furnishes this thing through the study made of each pupil and the system of advisers in which a faculty of- ficer is responsible for the conduct and suc- cess of each boy on the campus.

' O0 i Sixty-five ♦ WENTWORTHiMILITARY ACADEMY The Acaiikmy Lawns Are Invitino SCHOLASTIC ORGANIZATION For reasons very easily understood. Wont- worth divides the High School and the Junior College into two separate and dis- tinct units so far as organization is con- cerned. They have separate quarters, sep- arate military organization, separate scho- lastic schedules, and separate and different disciplinary method .. There can be no ques- tion that each unit has different problems. It would be a mistake to mix high school and college boys in the same quarters and a grievous mistake to expect the same disci- plinary methods to serve for Iwth. There is too great a disparity in age and in mental discrimination. What may be good for one may not be good for the other. Competition between individuals in such a mixed body would not be equal and fair. Consequently Wcntworth has insisted that different meth- ods Ik? applied to the two organizations. The success of the institution in dealing with both types has amply rewarded the foresight of the management in adopting this policy. However, the work of the high school and that of the college is so arranged that there i« a very close coordination between the two organizations. It is possible for a boy to step out of high school into junior college almost without realizing that he is entering into a new type of work. Usually there is a disconcerting break between high school and college that results fatally for many fresh- men. That trouble is avoided at Wentworth, and the student may go from high school into college and carry on his work with ease. This would not be possible if there was not a definite coordination of the work of the last years of the high school with that of the ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACAD E MY ♦WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY nirKMAN Hau., Junior Coixkuk Bamu.txh college. The best possible preparation for Went worth Junior Co! lege is in the Went- worth High School. The High School Wentworth High School is a four-year in- stitution of exceptionally high standards. It has a faculty of men who are selected pri- marily for their success in dealing with the education of young men. All of them have adequate training for work in a high school of this type, and most of them have much more training than is required, since a large part of the work is in charge of the highly trained men who teach in the Junior College. This insures a grade of work far better than is to be expected of the usual high school. The High School offers three courses — the college preparatory, the special, and the com- mercial. The college preparatory course is a very thorough one designed to fit the boy who passes it for entrance into Wentworth Junior College or any other college, where he should be able to take his place with entire confidence in his ability to succeed, because Lta .ving I ' m: or the Transit the course in Wentworth is much fuller than that ordinarily required for college entrance and the standards are unusually high. In- stead of lowering the requirements, Went- t ' age Sixty-tigM B Company Banuckk worth feels that they ought to l e raised. The school keeps careful check on all stu- dents who an graduated and watches their progress for at least a year after they have left Wentwurth. The special course does not lead to college entrance, but it is designed for those who wish merely four years of general and lib- eral training liefore they go to work. It Is a valuable course, and. on account of its avoid- ance of strictly technical courses meant only for college entrance, it is a broadening and Wiikn Alumni Fim Was St, enlightening course which all students enjoy. The commercial course is complete in all the elementary work that a beginning stu- dent in business practices would expect to get in a high school. It is rather practical than theoretical, though some attention is given to theoretical subject-matter. Many boy 8 who are riot interested in college training, and yet who wish a training more immediately prac- tical than that given in the special course take this business course and find it very ' helpful and enjoyable. A boy of intelligence will find any one of these courses well worth his while. Natur- ally, the institution makes most appeal to those hoys who have the fine intelligence and healthy ambition to go on to college and make the most of their powers. However, the vast number of advantages offered by a school of this kind outside of the set curriculum makes a course here extremely worth-while, in whatever curriculum the boy may lie inter- ested. This is only a brief statement giving the sub lance of the high school course in barest Pagr Sirty niu ♦ WE NTWORTH MILITARY ACAD E MY outline. Those who are interested in this work should procure a copy of THK HIGH SCHOOL BULLETIN. Here the aim and purpose of the high school, the special aids to learning in such an institution ns Went- worth. and a full description of requirements and courses will be found. The Junior College This branch of the Academy gives the first two years of general work given in all universities and colleges and required before specialization of any kind is permitted. It not only prepares for entrance into the third year of any liberal college, but also offers courses for those seeking entrance into medi- cal, law. engineering, business, and other professional schools. In any of these pro- fessional schools the work is general in the first two years, no specialization of any im- portance l eing permitted in the first two years. It is possible for the student to get a wonderful foundation for his later pro- fessional work because he has a chance to do the intensive type of work in small classes that cannot be found in larger schools in the first two yearH. There is also a class of students who do not care to spend four full years in college, who yet wish to round out their education by some acquaintance with the different fields of knowledge and some idea of what college is like. For such a student Went- worth College is an ideal school. It per- mits the student to take courses in nearly every branch of liberal arts and bring his work to a satisfactory ending in two years, at the end of which time he is given the de- gree of Associate in Arts to show that he has finished junior college. In view of the fact that the great majority of students do at- tend a liberal college only two years, the second year of college is naturally an ideal lime to terminate a college course of study for many students. However, those who at- tend the four-year college for only two years have no visible recognition of their work such as the diploma and degree wh ' ch Went worth gives. The student who is unable to go four years to college, or the student who feels that he does not desire Page Stvrnty ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY DeMolayi to specialize in any particular brunch of work, preferring to get a liberal and all- around training, has a far greater chance of success in business than has the high school graduate, as will be shown by statis- tical studies made in many of our large in- dustrial organizations. All of these go to show that college education pays in dollars and cents far beyond what moBt of us re- alize. Wenlworth Junior College was established under the supervision of university authori- ties and with their approval. There is an appalling number of failures in all universi- ties in the freshman and sophomore years. The blame for this is not to be laid at the door of the able men who conduct the work in our universities. They wish to meet the situation and would do it if they could. They are powerless to meet it. That is one of the reasons why so many of our universities have given their sanction to junior colleges of recognized merit. If the junior college ill: ill its aim. the universities will be re- lieved of the congestion which now threatens their standards, and they can again function effectively. By offering a small school of high quality Wentworth is able to avoid for Its students a great deal of the lack of achievement which means failure for hordes of freshmen every year. The classes In the university are en- tirely too large for good training. By offering strict supervision, Wentworth is able to save the student who, if he entered a large school, would be kept from his work by a multitude of distractions, perhaps never knowing that he was near failure until late in the year— too late to save himself. By offering personal contact of the in- structors with the student, Wentworth is able to avoid the impersonal, cold, formal, in- struction found in university classes, sub- stituting for it sympathy and personal in- terest, which always go far toward saving the young man when he begins to wander. By offering courses in HOW TO STUDY, Wentworth is able to give the new college student an acquaintanre with methods of uttucking problems. A very considerable percentage of failures is due to the fact that a beginning college student has not the least idea of how to study systematically. How is he ever to learn it in a large school unless he stumbles on to it? Wentworth teaches it in regular classes. In short. Wentworth Junior College offers the advantages of the larger institution with- out its disadvantages. What more ideal com- bination could one desire? THOSE INTERESTED SHOULD NOT FAIL TO ASK FOR A COPY OF THE JUNIOR COLLEGE BULLETIN.

The idea contemplated a small standing army and be- hind it a great national army of citizens upon whom we must always depend as our greatest insurance against attack. The problem of officering the citizen army was solved by establishing in nearly four hun- dred of our schools and colleges units of the Reserve Officers ' Training Corps.

TRUMPETER ♦ ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACAD E MY OnuuHnm the East THE DAILY PROGRAM Perhaps a better insight into the opera- tion of a military school such as Wentworth ran be gained from the daily routine than from any other thing. The routine nt Went- worth is so arranged that the cadet is kept busy and yet ample recreation is provided for him when he needs it. One thing that is kept constantly in mind is to arrange the work bo that the student is not kept at one thing until he is weary. This is the secret of the prodigious amount of work that a cadet does in one day. He could never do it. if he kept at one type of work continuously. A cardinal principle of psychology is that fa- tigue may l)e prevent- ed almost indefinitely by a change of work. Note a typical week- day schedule. Reveille at 6:40 A. M. Everybody up and washed in time for breakfast at 7 o ' clock. 7: ' 25 to 7 :! ( ). doming of Rooms.

ThiB drill puts the cadets in fine fettle for dinner immedi- ately thereafter. It also offers a change of work after a morning of study, that renews the student mentally so that he can continue in the afternoon with- out loss in efficiency. After Dinner. There is a half hour of re- creation for the ' gang ' to talk over the events of the day so far. Camnis Vimrow ♦WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY ! 4 Tub Band Gobs On a Visit 1 o ' clock.

The afternoon class work is held. 4:10 to 5:50. This is the regular athl ti period when every cadet is indulging in some kind of recreation under competent super- vision. 5:50. Recall sounds and the cadet must take a shower and prepare for supper, which comes at 6 :25. After supper there is a half hour of free- dom. Then there is a study period of two hours during which the cadet must remain in his own room and devote himself to his work, unless he is in study hall. The cadet remain quiet at this time so that there will be no distraction. Faculty members are in the barracks to assist any who need help. After this two-hour period, tattoo is blown. The cadet may now go to bed. study for forty-five minutes longer, or read, just aa he pleases. 10 o ' clock. At the sound of taps all stu- dents retire. Junior College students have a longer period of study and are not required U go to bed so early. A glance at this schedule shows that the cadet has plenty of work to do so that he is not likely to find time for mischief. He has every inducement to devote himself assid- uously to his work, for there is assistance if he needs it. In its very nature, this schedule assists a pupil in de- veloping habits that are hound to make him successful in whatever work he may under- take.

Equipment Wentworth is splendidly equipped to take care of athletics on a large scale. Prob- ably the chief feature of the equipment is the huge gymnasium, 5ft feet wide and 220 feet long. The main floor con- tains two large regulation basket ball courts, space 40x55 for apparatus work, and a stage 20x5ft feet. Around the floor has been laid off an indoor track, three laps to the quarter mile— this is as large as that in Convention Hall in Kansas City. The equip- ment on this floor consists of parallel and horizontal bars, horses, mats, rings and other apparatus. In the basement there is a large swimming pool 20x60 feet filled with filtered and heated water. It is open the year round.

In addition to the wonderful Cymnasium there are four athletic fields — the new Alumni Stadium, the old Varsity Field, and two practice fields — each large enough for a football gridiron, a soccer field, or a base ball diamond. Five modern, well-kept and up-to-date rock dust tennis courts accommodate the large number of tennis enthusiasts. The courts are practically all-weather courts as they dry very quickly after a rain. ♦ WENTWORTH MILITARY ACADEMY4 In Naw Stadium 8omk Game! Some Ckiivd! Country Club Recently a blanket membership for all cadets has been secured l y the Academy from the Lexington Country Club. This gives each cadet free membership and full use of the Club ' s facilities. The Club has a beau- tiful nine-hole golf course and commodious Club House on the bluffs overlooking the Missouri River. Trap shooting is a late addi- tion to the Club ' s facilities. The Alumni Stadium Wentworth alumni have just completed as a gift to the school a fine new stadium which is to be known as Alumni Stadium. The field is scientifically graded, is covered with a luxuriant growth of bluegrass. and is surrounded by a handsome concrete wall. Modern bleachers sufficient to Reat nearly five thousand people have been completed, and the field now stands as a wonderful addi- tion to the school ' s equipment, as well an an everlasting monument to the loyalty of Went- worth alumni. The field is second to none at any school of this type in the entire country. A large modern field house will be added eventually to this stadium, which will make the whole plant one very unusual among military schools. The old Varsity Field is equipi ed with bleachers to seat 1.500 people. Around the main gridiron is a modem quarter-mile cinder-dirt combination track, well curbed and used in all kinds of weather. Back of Murine Hall are five grit tennis courts, as good and well-kept as any in the state. They are patterned after the Rockhill courts in Kansas City. They are equipped with bleachers and high backstops and provide excellent opportunity for tournaments.

In 1903 he won the Western Interscholastic Tennis Championship, at the University of Chicago. Practically all of the faculty members have some special preparation and assist in the coaching of teams. Major fi A. Day handles golf. He has a large group always interested in golf and has some excellent teams. Sgt. R. A.

Rolli- son is an expert with a rifle and has many high marks in -•ft the American and British armies. He learned fencing in British Colleges. Capt. W. C. Baker, of the Springfield Teachers Col- lege, coaches wrestling. He developed ft very capable team which won many • U uts. although this was the first year with wrest- ling as a varsity sport, ( ' apt. Raker also helped with company foot- ball and supervised the athletic fraternity tests. ( ' apt. J. R. Foster, University of Missouri, coached swimming. Swimming was revived as a varsity sport and some excellent records were made. Capt. K. Hedberg has charge of a company baaelwill team. Capt. E. Anspaugh has charge of ft com- pany Itaseball team. It is certain thnt no Preparatory school ever had a more imposing array of coaches than Wentworth. Wentworth is indeed for- tunate in having such men in school and it is an assured fact that each member of the large number of players will receive ample expert coaching and a chance to show his worth before competent judges. Pagr Ont Hundrrd Two Each company team and each athletic class has its qualified coach and instructor. Each faculty man lakes charge of that branch of work for which he is best qual- ified. Each cadet in school can and does receive instruction in any branch of ath- letics he may choose. m ill. Mass or COMPANY |I Athletics - The Wentworth system of Company Athletics reaches every cadet in school and is therefore the most important part of the entire system. Each cadet is required to make a certain numl er of unite in athletics, the same as he has to meet certain requirements in his scholastic work. To explain— for participation in any department of the work a certain num- ber of credits is given, the number being in ♦WENTWORTH MILITARYiACADEMY4 proportion to the amount of work. The num- of credits and amount of work is so ar- ranged that moat students are kept busy the greater part of the year, two or three times a week. While the boy is required to make these credits such a large and interesting ar- ray of sports is offered that the compul- sory feature is seldom necessary, most atu- 7K staged. The company winning the most cham- pionships during the year is declared the ath- letic champion and given an award of some sort, usually a Iwnquet. The sports open to allxadets are: Football. Soccer, Tennis, Swimming, Wrestling, Box- ing, Apparatus Work, Tumbling, Basket Ball, Track and Baseball, Fencing, Volley Ball and (Jolf.

Varsity or Inter-School Competition Wentworth is a member of a Conference or League called the Missouri State Confer- ence, an organization of Military schools and colleges. This gives our teams a defi- nite championship to work for, and the Con- ference eligibility rules keep the men com- peting on a uniform baais. For instance, each student must bo bona fide, taking re- quired amount of work and making passing in Went worth ' s past and present record is one of which it can Ik? justly proud. Wentworth has held the football championship more than ;in othei .school and has ttueeesafully com- peted against many of the liesl college teams of the state. The 1930 Football team finished in third place in the conference. While its record is not as good as in many previous years, yet considering the difficult schedule against four-year colleges, the season was a success.

The team is developing and while the Missouri State Conference Championship nice is keen, great things are expected before the close of the season. Two school records have been broken. About forty have been out for track. Tennis, with two veterans back, looks better than it haa in years. Ijwt year ' s con- ference singles champion is atill in school and playing a great game. Tennis is devel- oping into one of the most popular sports. Each year sees more interest in golf.

The facilities for golf are exceptional ami a large percent of ;lu- student body lakes advantage of them. Boxing and fencing, l oth inter-company sports, attracted their usual interest. The final championships furnished an evening of great entertainment for the Corps. Medals were given the winners in the various boxing weight and to the champion with the toils. Wrestling was placed on an inter- school competition basis this year for the first time.

As u result there was increased interest and some excellent matches were staged. While the season ' s record is not imposing, .vet, con- sidering every angle, it was very satisfactory. Wentworth is in a peculiar position with reference to competition, particularly in football. Outside of the conference games the chief competition is with four-year col- leges, as these seem to offer the only avail- able opportunity. In view of this fact, the Wentworth team records have been remnrk- uble, not only this year, but in past years. Considering all sports the Dragons more than hold their own in almost any competition. Next year ' s football schedule, illustrates the tusk of the Wentworth team. The follow- ing is a reprint from the 1931 football schedule cards: 1931 Football Schedule S.pt.

Special attention is called to the fact that night football is now being played. The night game has proven highly pleasing to players and spectators alike. Through the coo| era- 4ion of the local Light Company an unusually well-lighted field was prepared. In addition company teams for those not making the Varsity will play games with nearby high schools, so that everyone will get a chance at competition. As usual football and the other sports this year emphasize the fact that the big major- ity of our athletes are develojied and trained right here in Wentworth. A vast majority of the Varsity team members were members of previous scrub and company teams — an ex- cellent tribute to the entire athletic system operating here. All boxing at Wentworth is under direct supervision of instructors. Students are taught the fundamentals and given the op- portunity to develop skill and alertness. They are allowed to box only for short intervals. They receive, therefore, only beneficial ef- fects from this sport. To foster varsity or school athletic and encourage ath- letes a W Club has lieen formed and is in full operation in school. It is composed of all men who have won their letter in any sport. This club naturally contains some of the best men in school and does much to aid athletics. It also leads in social life as the Spring Fete and Banquet are two of the biggest events dur- ing the school year. Member- ship in the club is a much sought for honor. There is an auxiliary club called the KW Association, composed of sec- ond team members. Its organ- ization and purpose is very much the same as that of the YV club. Emblems are given those making the various school teams.

Summary A survey of the foregoing will show that in athletics Wontworth is exceedingly well equipped. To a gtuwlng unci red -blooded boy this means much, and adds much to his interest in school, even in non- athletic pursuits. Athletics promote and foster a school spirit that is carried into every department of school life. Wentworth Spirit is one thing of which the stu- dents are proud and a thing recognized by every cadet in school. While it may be evi- denced more strongly in ath- letic sports it is carried over into all other work. It keeps An Unusual Situation — Tiir.
