THE SPUDPICKER— iBrmmgford {Jitblir §rljoola High school may be said to exist for the purpose of aiding the youth to at- tain the truest citizenship and the highest success in life. As Hemingford is centrally located in the county and not close to any other large high school, the Board of Education is equipping it so that it may serve its purpose. Any student finishing the Hemingford high school may enter the University of Nebraska without taking entrance examinations as our school is fully accredited in every way. The equipment of our school is adequate and sufficient for thorough work in all the departments in which work is given. Each year additional equipment is added to the departments that the classes may keep up to the State requirements. We have a growing library of books and encyclopedias. Up-to-date recording and modern library methods are being used. The science laboratory is well equipped. Our new high school building has been erected at a cost of about $70,000 and is modern in every way. The class rooms and assembly are well lighted and are pleas- antly arranged. The large gymnasium in the building has three basketball courts, also shower rooms and dressing rooms for both boys and girls. The stage in the auditorium with its stage scenery and curtains make it the finest place in our community for the giving of plays and entertainments. The entire high school curriculum is devised and carried through with these ends in view; to provide the best foundations for a college education in case pupils are able to press on and secure this larger privilege and to enable the student to fit himself for practical work in life in case he does not proceed with advance work in education. It is for the latter aim that commercial work has been added to this year’s schedule. The town of Hemingford is located on a level fertile table land. Being on the State Highway and the main line of the Burlington, it is a thriving, growing little town. Hemingford is a prosperous town and according to statistics does more shipping than any other town along the Burlington in proportion to its size. Hotels, cafes, residences, pri- vate boarding places, furnished and unfurnished apartments offer splendid accommoda- tions to either individuals or families that might wish to locate here during the school year or to make them a permanent home. We extend a cordial invitation to all high school folks to be with us next fall at the opening of school and we will strive to make the entire year a pleasant and profitable one. C. A. ELKINS, Superintendent of Schools.
