BERTRAM HIGH SCHOOL . . A short time after the new town of Bertram was founded on June 24, 1882, a school house and Masonic Lodge Hall was built on a lot at the corner of East Street and South Gabriel Road. This was a two- story wooden building, and was added on to as the town and school grew. This building was used as a school building until 1909. The corner stone for a new two-story red brick school house in Bertram was laid on July 20, 1909. The ceremony was conducted by the Masonic Fraternity of Bertram. The architect for the build- ing was George A. Endress. M. L. Langford of Bertram was the con- tractor and builder. The corner-stone was donated by James Elliott. The following men were members of the school board in 1909: A. J. Ater, President; O. O. Beal;J. W. Buckner; J. W. Glaspy; G. W. Pearce; V. M. Cox; and L. D. Ater, Secretary. The following article was published in The Bertram Banner on July 8, 1909: The day set for laying the ceremonies is the 20th. The ceremonies will be conducted by the Masonic Fraternity of this place, and also an invitation is extended neighboring lodges to attend and participate. The hour of begin- ning will be 3:30 P.M. There will be no forenoon exercises. And, too, the idea of a picnic has been dis- missed. But it is expected to have a very interesting program for the afternoon. There will be several public orations by prominent Masonic speakers. Among other men of prominence expected are Judge Mar- tin; the Honorable Dayton Moses, and the Honorable Ike D. White. Everybody is invited to attend the exercises that mark the beginning to an enterprise of the Bertram citizenship that will commemorate their loyalty to progress long after the participants have returned to mother earth. - Reprinted from articles in the Jubilee Edition of The Bertram Enterprise, Thursday, June 20, 1957, with permission of Mrs. N. Oliver Cox. 2 Script on photograph reads Building of Bertram College, July, 1909: M. L. Langford, Contractor Builder.
