In accordance with the pro- visions of the act, the County Commissioners, on the 14th day of April, of the same year, appointed E. A. Osborn, Revilo Newton, William Dunkin, J. A. Moore, Thomas Hayden and iM. L. Stephens, who, with 'County Superintend- ent J. N. Dollison, constituted the first Board of Trustees of the Montgomery County High School. The Board held its first meeting April 22 and organized by electing Revilo Newton, Secretary, and William Dunkin, Treasurer, the County Superintendent being President ex-officio. On the 28th day of May, the Board accepted the site donated by the City and on the following day agreed upon a six-mill levy for construction and approved plans for the building. On the 28th day of October, 1897, a contract for the construc- tion of the building was awarded, and June 6, 1899, the building was formally accepted by the Board. In October, 1911, a contract was let for a manual train- ing addition. This annex is located just west of the main building and a reinforced concrete stairway affords direct communication between the two on each floor. The building was completed, equipped, and ready for use September 2, 1912. The school is located in the northwestern part of the City, on Tenth Street, in the center of a block of ground 300 feet square. The high ground, beautiful elms, and well kept lawn make this one of the most attractiveplaces in the City. The Santa Fe and Missouri Pacilic railways and the Union Traction Company's interurban line and city sys- vw.

The building, including the manual training addition, is 186 feet by 85 feet, and has two stories and a basement. It is built of pressed brick and native sandstone, and is equipped with all modern improvements and appliances, including a thorough system of Ventilation, steam heat by direct and indirect radiation, hot and cold water on each iioor, natural gas for fuel and lights, electricity for power and lights, sewerage connection and telephone service. In the basement are the music studio, the museum, the domestic science room, the domestic art room, the gymnasium, four toilet rooms, two shower baths, and the heating plant. On the first floor are the principal's office, the library, the auditorium, three recitation rooms, the mechanical drawing room, the manual training rooms, and the study room. The second floor contains four recitation rooms, four rooms for laboratory and class work in the sciences and four rooms for the commercial department. The general equipment of the school is now such as to enable it to do highly etlicient work in all courses found in the most progressive modern high schools.

There are two laboratories, one for the physical sciences and one for the biological, with a recitation room adjacent to each. Large sliding double doors separate the biological laboratory from its recitation room. By opening these doors the two rooms become practically one and ample space is given for the use of the lantern. The laboratory for chemistry and physics is furnished with four oak tables with slate tops, each table being supplied with hot and cold water and with gas. The apparatus in the two laboratories includes a valveless air- pump, twenty-four simple and nine compound microscopes, an eight-inch reflecting telescope, an optical lantern, a Toep- ler-Holtz electrical machine, dynamos, a large Ruhmkorif coil, batteries, Leyden jars, a telegraph sounder and key, X-Ray apparatus, test tubes, retorts, crucibles and chemicals. An annual appropriation of 3200 is made for this department. Work in the natural sciences, with such facilities for experi- ment, is both interesting and helpful to the student. MUSEUM Considerable time during the past sixteen years has been devoted to building up the museum. The collection of specimens is not large, but, through the efforts of the faculty and students and the kindness of friends, it is constantly growing and increasing in value. The school is indebted to Mr. William H. Barnes for a recent donation of valuable specimens. Many other friends of the school have contrib- uted to the collection. Further donations will be appreciated. 'I 8 Sixteentlt Annual Catalogue MANUAL TRAINING All over the country the best schools are devoting con- siderable time and energy to manual training. The new addition to the building enables the Montgomery County High School to offer its students ample facilities for Work along this line. The north half of the first floor has been equipped for this department. Fifteen single benches and the necessary tools have been provided for the bench work. The equipment also includes four lathes for the turning department, a jointer, a saw table, a band saw, a hollow chisel mortiser and a tool grinder. Mr. J. B. Yingling, an experi- enced and efficient instructor, has had charge of the manual training and mechanical drawing for the past three years and has made the work interesting and helpful to the stu- dents. The boys make many useful and valuable pieces of furniture which become theirs on payment of the cost of the material used. Mr. Yingling is taking special work in the Kansas State Manual Training Normal School this summer and will resume his duties here in September, prepared to give his pupils the benefit of any new ideas which that insti- tution may have to offer. DOMESTIC SCIENCE AND ART The two large basement rooms of the old building are arranged and equipped for cooking and sewing. The south room is furnished with four sewing machines, the necessary tables, an electric iron, and other appliances for the sewing department. Eight double tables with chairs and hot plates attached, a large range, cooking utensils, and a refrigerator are placed in the north room for the domestic science work. Excellent work has been done in this department. Classes in both cooking and sewing are always large. Last year so many girls enrolled in this department that it became neces- .?.h, f ' -- - -2-A X ,l X X T i ,F .A reg A4 '1' ' ,., MEMBERS OF FACULTY E. MAY HANCOCK BERENICE BUC JOHN W. LAURY, JR.

Under the efficient direction of Miss Hancock and the faithful assistance of Miss Reppert this work was intensely interesting, especially practical and so thoroughly scientific as to be of great cul- tural value to every student. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT The north half of the second Hoor in the new building is used for Work in the commercial branches. Bookkeeping, stenography and typewriting are taught in separate rooms, each specially planned and furnished. A neat dictation room has also been provided for this department. With the ample provision made in rooms and equipment, the extension of the course to four years, and two experienced and competent teachers in charge of the work, the commercial course ought to be more popular and more thorough than ever before. DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC Regular class work in vocal music is offered in all of the courses. Special attention is also given to the training of choruses, glee clubs, quartettes and soloists. The chorus early last year began the preparation of the cantata, Bul- Bul . A strong cast and a large and well trained chorus. under the efficient direction of Miss Louise Evans assisted by Miss Una Appleby, worked faithfully in the preparation of this number. The Cantata was given at The Beldorf, March 10. Principals and choruses sang their parts well and pleased the large audience. Glee clubs, quartettes and soloists showed the efficiency of their training by the excel- lent music furnished the various school programs. As soon as the vocal work of the department was well under way, an orchestra was organized. The boys practiced regularly and made rapid progress. The selections rendered at Chapel were always enjoyed by the students. As Miss Evans will ,af W 1 1' J.. . N, T? 5. 2 f . gf 1-fvif-g X'4':l'-'nI.'. . i.

Students who take pri- vate instruction in piano or voice pay fifty cents a lesson. ATHLETICS A reasonable amount of time properly devoted to ath- letics and systematic physical training is beneficial to every student. Tennis, basket ball, baseball and track events were the principal athletic sports in which the students partici- pated last year. A tennis tournament was held last fall, the entries numbering fifty. There were many hotly contested matches. John Raymond won the singles cup and Raymond and Raymond were the winners in doubles. Students will have the privilege of playing on the six fine courts at River- side Park the coming year. The girls' basket ball team played twelve games and won half of them. In the tourna- ment at Baldwin, the team scored three successive victories and won the championship cup. The boys' basket ball team played well at times but could not win with the regularity of former teams. A majority of the games were recorded in the loss column. Only two games of baseball were played, one resulting in a victory, the other in a defeat. Not much interest has been aroused in track and field events, but as an excellent training ground is now available large numbers of the students should get the benefit this splendid form of exercise affords. Work is being done on the gymnasium this summer to put it in better condition for daily use next winter. LIBRARY AND STUDY HALL The entire south side of the first iioor in the annex has been equipped as a library and study hall. The book cases have been placed in the west room and a large archway has been constructed affording free access to this room from the study hall. The librarian will be in charge in the library and . ,Rx ui 5. Q X - ' 1 1 1 A -.-,, UW. . '. jwr'-'.'f ' , '., -- ,yr-.1 .Avg ' ' . r ,V -g.. EF J'--!

This new arrangement should prove ideal for effective reference work. The library is one of the best in the state for high school purposes. The library room is furnished with thirteen sections of Wernicke book- cases, a magazine case, five large oak tables, a librarian's desk and thirty chairs. Appropriate pictures adorn the walls. The library contains, in addition to pamphlets and government documents, sixteen hundred volumes of care- fully selected books. It is supplied with encyclopedias, dictionaries, general reference books, and the works of all the standard authors. Twenty-five of the best magazines are subscribed for and most of the county papers are donated to the institution. The library has been catalogued by the Dewey system of classification and its value to the school thereby greatly increased. Students also have free access to the 'Carnegie Library containing about seven thousand volumes of choice books. An attempt is made to guide stu- dents in their reading so that they 'may become familiar with important current events and with the best thoughts of the great writers of all ages. SOCIETIES The work formerly attempted by the literary societies is now being done in the regular recitation periods by dividing the school into sections for rhetoricals. This work is compulsory and gives every student of the institution the benefit of systematic drill in declamation, essay, debate and oration. For the past eleven years, organizations of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. have 'been maintained. Last year the membership in both organizations was larger and the work better than in any previous year. Delegates are sent annually to the state conventions. The Y. W. C. A. sends two delegates each year to the convention at Cascade, Colorado. The delegates to the conventions bring back much that is helpful to our student body. These associations are :'l' 1 a'+f:'1 '1 J w ' A.

DRAMATIC CLUB For several years students who wished to give special attention to the art of expression have maintained a dra- matic club. Last year this work was under the direction of Miss Ingleman and Miss Appleby. It was decided to present a play at The Beldorf and The Rose O' Plymouth, a com- edy, was selected. A well balanced cast gave a performance which showed both talent and careful training. A reason- able amount of time devoted to work of this character is helpful to the participants and beneficial to the school. LECTURE COURSE The school maintains an excellent lecture course every year. The numbers are selected from the best material that can be secured from the leading bureaus. Lectures and entertainments given by able specialists who have devoted years to preparation for their work are of inestimable value to the students and to the community. The price of a course ticket is 32.00. A rate of 31.25 is made to high school students. The committee feels that it has selected a splendid course for the coming year. Every number should give sat- isfaction. The musical attractions are high grade and the lecturers and entertainers among the most popular engaged in lyceum work. Mr. Charles F. Horner of the Redpath- Horner Bureau, who gave the 35500 which was awarded to the City of Independence in the child welfare contest, fur- nishes the course. The following are the numbers: Dr. E. T. Hagerman, Lecturer The MacDermids, Soprano and Pianist Dr. S. Parkes Cadman, Lecturer The Killarney Girls, Musicians Adrian Newens, Lecturer and Reader The Novelty Four, Musicians.

Montgomery County High School 13 FACULTY A corps of scholarly, experienced, progressive teachers is essential to the success of any educational institution. The teacher who continues to grow becomes more valuable to a school with every added year of service. The policy of the Board of Trustees has been to retain teachers doing satis- factory work. Great care is used in the employment of new teachers to secure those who are fitted by preparation and experience to do high grade work in the subjects which they will be required to teach. The result of these policies has been the building up of a teaching force among the best in the state. Fifteen members of last year's corps of teachers have been reemployed. The uniform high standard of work which has been maintained is thus assured for the coming year. The progressive spirit of these teachers is shown by the fact that ten of them, Mr. Richard Allen, Mr. T. B. Henry, Mr. J. B. Yingling, Miss Anna Paterson, Miss Anna lngleman, Miss Jessie Stewart, Miss Ellinor Boyd, Miss Louise Evans, Miss E. May Hancock and Miss Zelda Reppert are attending summer schools in institutions of higher edu- cation. Miss Berenice Buck, a graduate of the University of Wisconsin and a teacher for the past four years in the Emporia High School, has been elected to the department of Latin. She is a successful and enthusiastic teacher and should prove a valuable member of the Faculty. Mr. E. B. Moore, a thoroughly prepared and experienced teacher of commercial subjects, will have charge of the work in book- keeping and penmanship. ADMISSION Any applicant holding a common school diploma or a teacher's certificate, or any one who has completed the eighth grade in a city school of good standing will be admit- ted without examination. Other students seeking admission -fi ffl' A. T, ' f r T f'fK:', sew . rf 14 Sixteenth Aumzial Catalogue must pass a satisfactory examination in the subjects enu- merated under the heading, Examinations.'l Students who have completed work in other high schools may be given advanced standing at the Principal's discretion. EXAMINATIONS Two examinations for admission are held each year. The Kansas legislature has enacted a law providing for the issuance of a common school diploma to any person who shall complete the course of study prescribed for the common schools, such diploma to entitle the holder to admission to any high school in the state. The examination is conducted by a County Board of Examiners and is held on the first and sec- ond Saturdays of April at such places as the County Super- intendent may designate. The questions are prepared by the State Board of Education. Section 2 of the act reads: An average of 80 per cent with no grade below 60 per cent shall be required, for graduation, in the following subjects: Read- ing, writing, spelling, grammar, arithmetic, United States history, Kansas history, geography, civil government, agri- culture, physiology and classicsg provided that grades of 80 per cent, or more, may be carried as credits and applied as grades for graduation for a period of two yearsf' On Wednesday and Thursday before the opening of school, an examination will be given by the Principal for the benefit of any pupils seeking admission who have completed eighth grade work and who do not hold diplomas. EXPENSES Last year students were able to secure good board and comfortable rooms suitably furnished at rates ranging from S3 to S4 a week. Prices will be about the same this year. Some students rent rooms and do their own cooking.

Every assistance will be given students to enable them to secure satisfactory places at the lowest possible rates. Many students who live near the Union Traction Company's inter- urban line avail themselves of the privilege of coming to school in the morning and returning to their homes at night. Car fare is a comparatively small item of expense. No tuition fee is required of students living in the county. Five or six dollars a year will purchase all the books necessary for any course. DIPLOMAS AND CERTIFICATES Pupils who complete any of the courses are granted diplomas. The diploma from the Collegiate Course admits the holder to the State University without examination. Our diplomas are also given due credit by the State Normal, the Agricultural College, and the denominational colleges and universities of Kansas. This school has, for many years, been on the accredited list of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Students who complete the Collegiate Course are admitted, without examination, by the leading educational institutions of fifteen states. Each student who completes the Normal Course receives in addi- tion to the diploma, a teacher's certificate, second grade, valid in Montgomery County. The State Board of Educa- tion has placed this institution in the list of schools main- taining accredited normal courses. By passing a satisfactory examination on the questions submitted by the State Board, graduates can secure certificates valid anywhere in the state. 1' r -, Y, ,g 1-4, f iff ' ' nz . ' . '.

The aim of the Business 'Course is to give thorough training in the commercial branches and supple- ment this by other practical and cultural subjects. The Gen- eral Course is designed for those seeking such an education as will 'best fit them for the ordinary duties of life. Students are allowed 'more liberty in the selection of subjects in this course than in any other. The Normal 'Course is arranged with special reference to the needs of those preparing for the profession of teaching. Each student who 'completes this course is entitled to a teacher's certificate, second grade. The Collegiate 'Course is so outlined as to meet all require- ments for admissionto the University of Kansas and other universities and colleges of the state. A credit of one unit is given for satisfactory Work in a subject in which five recita- tions are conducted weekly for a period of nine months. Fifteen units are required for graduation. These courses of study have been outlined with special reference to the needs of the students. So many different lines of Work are offered that each student, with the advice and consent of the Principal, ought to be able to select the Work that will be most beneficial to him. The course once determined upon should be pursued diligently, Without any wavering or inclination to change to some other. That vacil- lating tendency so common to the human race, to try all things and abide in none, should be carefully avoided by the pupil. .Nia x E I 'S3 .' 1 N, ,I 1 N 5 s . F' A , 'H v,,w.

The work is especially valuable to the pupil in the development of the power of concentra- tion and of careful and exact reasoning. Accuracy and rapidity are insisted upon in every recitation. The course includes arithmetic, algebra, plane and solid geometry. ARITHMETIC.-This subject is required in the Business Course. As rapidity and accuracy are essential in commer- cial transactions, considerable time is devoted to drills in the fundamental operations. Special attention is given to fractions, both common and decimal, percentage, profit and loss, interest, stocks and bonds, mensuration and practical measurements and calculations. Drills in mental problems are of frequent occurrence. All practical short methods of computation are taught. A class in advanced arithmetic in which special attention is given to methods is maintained in the Senior year of the Normal Course. ALGEBRA.-ODE year of algebra is outlined for all the courses. In the Junior year of the Collegiate Course an additional term is required. In the first year, special promi- nence is given to accuracy of definitions, the meaning and use of signs and symbols, the mastery of the fundamental algebraic processes, laws governing coefficients and expo- nents, algebraic formulae and their application to factoring, and simple equations. The knowledge of these subjects here acquired should form the basis for thorough work in ad- vanced algebra. The work of the third term includes the discussion of problems and theorems, radicals, and quad- ratics. Pupils must be able to give reasons for all statements made and operations performed in the solution of problems. l f i .J 24 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue GEOMETRY.-Plane geometry is required in the NOFII1al and in the Collegiate Course. In the first two terms, the introduction, the first five chapters, and the appendix of Ford and Ammerman's Plane and Solid Geometry are studied. Solid geometry is optional in all courses but is strongly rec- ommeded to all who are able to profit by it. The course com- prises a thorough study of the last three chapters of the same text during a third term and should be preceded by two terms of successful work in plane geometry and three terms of good work in algebra. In all the work in geometry, careful attention is given to the meaning and application of geom- etrical terms, accuracy of statement of propositions, clear- ness and force of reasoning. As the highest culture value of this branch lies in the demonstration of original proposi- tions, much work of this character is assigned. NATURAL SCIENCES The aim of the courses in the natural sciences is to give a correct idea of the elements of the various subjects included in this department. While text books are prescribed for each subject studied, not all the work is done by recitation, but the text book is supplemented by lectures, demonstra- tions and laboratory work, that the student may study and verify for himself the principles laid down in the text book. The following courses are offered: GENERAL SCIENCE.-The first science of the high school should be fundamental. This aids in the proper understand- ing of the regular high school sciences, since these as now taught require a certain amount of maturity and preparation on the part of the pupil. The most important part of this course is introductory ideas on physical and chemical phe- nomena, problems of modern conveniences, of soils, plants and animals, and of sanitation as applied to the home and to public health. The work gives only primary notions of mat- ter, force and chemical action, yet these fundamentals are so presented as to enable the pupil to apply scientific principles VVORK OF DOMESTIC ART DEPARTMENT U- . , .

Only 'by linking science with every day things can We convince the pupil that science is common sense applied to daily life. PHYSIOGRAPHY.-The course in physiography consists of a careful study of the text supplemented by laboratory and field Work. Attention is given to the theories of continental formation, such as those of isostasy, geonomy and sub- sidence. -Observations are made of the agencies of erosion, and the principles of evaporation and precipitation of moisture. The student gives special attention to ocean, fresh water and land faunas and iloras, natural barriers to the distribution of plant and animal life, the action of volcanoes, the formation of mountains, the general features of winds, storms and climate, and the chemical precipitation and mechanical sedimentation of the different strata and minerals. PHYSIOLOGY.--The course in physiology is intended to give the student a technical knowledge of the human body. Conn and Budington's Physiology is used as a text and is supplemented by fMartin's Human Body, by laboratory exer- cises in drawing and dissecting, by the study of specimens with the microscope, and by a series of carefully arranged and practical experiments. Special attention is given to the anatomy and functions of the different organs with emphasis upon such points as bear on personal health. AGRICULTURE.-The science of agriculture, because of its cultural and practical value, deserves a place in the cur- riculum of every high school. Especially is this true of the county high school in which the best interests of many boys and girls from the farm will be subserved if they are taught the fundamental principles of this science which is of incom- parable economic value. One year of this subject is offered. Credit is given in any of the courses. The excellent new book by President Waters, The Essentials of Agriculture, is used as a text. Attention is centered upon plant propaga- , ,N -. Lf. -.. - -: ii f ,asf 11 r ,. .,4.,. , . i . 26 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue tion, soil tests, management of soils, drainage, irrigation, dry farming, corn, the small grains, fiber crops, grasses, legumes, forage crops, silos and silage, fruits, plant diseases, insects on the farm, spraying, domestic animals, business aspects of farming, mechanical power on the farm, and such other topics as may be of general importance or of local interest. ZOOLOGY.-This course is intended to give the student a knowledge of general animal structure. The course includes recitations, lectures, illustrations and laboratory work, which consists of dissections and drawings. Attention is given to the observation of living animals, methods of killing and preserving specimens, microscopical examinations, and the use of reagents. The student studies the orders, sub- orders, and the more important families with special refer- ence to those of economic importance. Attention is directed to the analogy and homology of animal structure taken from vertebrata and articulata, and the ontogeny of the frog, taken from living specimens from the laboratory aquarium. Lectures are given at intervals on the structural relations of organisms, viz: Homology, successional relation, parallelism and teleology, and the geographical diversity of faunas and fioras. BOTANY.-In this course. those phases of plant life are presented which mean' most to the public in general and which are of interest and educational value to high school pupils. This includes a study of the plant as to its structure and nutrition, and as to its economical value. Plant breed- ing, plant propagation, and forestry are studied in an ele- mentary way, and some of those diseases of plants and animals caused by parasitic plants are discussed. For the proper study of these things, the school has a nicely located laboratory well equipped with tables and all apparatus neces- sary. A herbarium of forty plants designed to represent the leading orders of this locality is prepared by each student. - '--- ,...,.,.,.,i,.. ,,,,,, Y :lf Q t A f'l'l-M12 T' - ' f -. - ni7 f.!:,, Movzitgomery County High School 27 The course is not only helpful in arriving at a fair under- standing of plant life in general but it also meets the needs of pupils wishing to present botany for college entrance. CHEMISTRY.-The work in chemistry consists of labora- tory exercises, lectures and recitations. The statements of the text are demonstrated by judicious selections of exepri- ments which are performed by each pupil, thus training him in mechanical manipulation and also preventing the study from becoming an abstract exercise of memory. The labora- tory Work consists of generating gases, decomposing new substances and investigating the laws of chemical aflinity. All the experiments in Smith's Chemistry and such others as the instructor may assign are performed by the student. A portion of the time is given to the writing of equations and the solving of chemical problems. In many cases the student makes his own chemicals. PHYSICS.-Instruction in the principles and elements of physics is by means of lectures, recitations and laboratory demonstrations. As a year is devoted to this subject in -each of the courses, the Work is made thorough and searching. The properties of matter, the laws dependent upon gravity, the phenomena and laws of sound, heat, light and electricity are carefully studied experimentally and from the best texts. Students are taught to use standard instruments, make elec- trical and magnetic determinations and test the efficiency of small dynamos. Every encouragement is offered them for carrying on original investigations, and every oppor- tunity is taken to stimulate a spirit of scientific inquiry. The equipment of the department of physics comprises many fine instruments which make it possible to give experimental demonstrations of all important phenomena and laws of mechanics, heat, electricity, magnetism, acoustics and optics. - r x gt za. i Q t J i , I . . -2 ,5.4SK:'5.G3'y-, , W. ,1- 28 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue ENGLISH Every American citizen should possess such a knowledge of the English language as will enable him to express his ideas and thoughts accurately, concisely, and forcibly. Young people who are fortunate enough to have the advan- tages of a good high school should consider this course one of the most valuable which they can pursue. The work in English is compulsory in all courses. The subjects offered are business English, composition and rhetoric, English and American literature. BUSINESS ENGLISH.-JMBHY pupils enter high school with but little knowledge of English grammar. This course gives such students a thorough review of its essential rules and principles and needed practice in their application. Atten- tion is also given to spelling, pronunciation, and the history and use of words. Oral English, punctuation, the clear sen- tence, the paragraph, business letters, advertising, and kindred topics are carefully studied and the information acquired is practically applied. Students in the business department will find this an excellent course. COMPOSITION AND RHETORIC.-The text adopted for this course is Canby and iOpdycke's Elements of Composition. The purpose of the course is clearly expressed in the text, To teach the tools of writing-the word, the sentence, the paragraph, and other unities--until they may be used as handily as the carpenter uses his hammer or the mason his ltrowelf' This subject is continued for a period of two years. In the first year, special attention is given to a review of grammar, to spelling, capitalization, punctuation, and letter writing. Part I of the text, including composition, shaping the material, the sentence, the paragraph, the Whole compo- sition, the Word, is completed. The work of the second year covers Part II, including exposition, argument, description, narration, and the story. Attention is also given to figures fi ,llr I AMI ,ispnvr-,xi in . Y. VV. C. A. CABINET Montgomery County High School 29 of speech, prosody, and proof reading. At least two periods a week throughout the course are devoted to a study of the classics and to composition. LITERATURE.-The courses in literature are designed for students who have completed the work in composition and rhetoric. Special effort is put forth to encourage pupils to familiarize themselves with the masterpieces of prose and poetry, to train them to read intelligently, to develop in them a love for good literature, and to have them acquire such a knowledge of the leading events in the lives of the authors studied as will aid in the interpretation of their writings. Two courses are offered: A one-year course, based upon Tappan's Engla.nd's and America's Literatureg and a two- year course, in which The History of English Literature and The History of American Literature by Halleck are used as texts. As it is more important to study good litera- ture than to read about books and authors, the study of the classics is continued at least two periods a Week throughout the course. One period a week is given to composition. CLASSICS REQUIRED.-Freshman: 'Lowell's Vision of Sir Launfal, Coleridge's Ancient Mariner, Whittier's Snow- bound, Cooper's Last of the Mohicans, Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice, Burns' Cotter's Saturday Night, Eliot's Silas Marner. Sophomore: Burke's Speech on Conciliation, Macaulay's Essay on Milton, 'Milton's Lyrics, Carlyle's Essay on Burns, Goldsmitlfs Vicar of Wakefield, Irving's Life of Goldsmith, Macaulay's Essay on Addison, Scott's Lady of the Lake, Addison's DeCoverly Papers. Junior: Shakespeare's Macbeth or Julius Cwsar, The Webster-Hayne Debate, Scott's Ivanhoe, and selections from Tennyson, Dickens, and others, as occasion requires. These lists subject to revision at the beginning of the school term. 30 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue LATIN The study of Latin is of incomparable value to the student. It aids him greatly in the acquisition of English, gives him an insight into the life and literature of the ancient Romans, and affords him an excellent mental drill. The course requires three years for its completion. BEGINNING LATIN.-The text used is Smith's Latin Lessons. Special stress is laid on accuracy of pronunciation, declensions, conjugations, constructions, idioms, composition, English derivatives and the acquisition of a Latin vocabu- lary. A thorough mastery of the grammatical rules and principles underlying the order and arrangement of Words, the sequence of tenses and indirect discourse is insisted upon. Exercises in sight reading and interpretation of easy Latin read in class by the instructor are given. This course introduces the pupil at once to classic Latin and thoroughly prepares him for its future study. CAESAR.-Four books. Drill on declensions, paradigms, and the application of the essential rules and principles of grammar is continued. 'One recitation period each Week is given to exercises in prose composition. The military tac- tics, weapons, laws, manners and customs of the Romans are subjects for historical research. Pupils are required to read Froude's Life of Caesar, and to make a careful study of Caesar's relation to Roman history. CICERO.-Six orations. Pupils continue the study of paradigms and grammatical relations and the practice in Latin composition, Attention is directed to the elements which give strength and beauty to Cicero's Writings. Many of the most elegant passages are memorized. The life, char- acter and influence of Cicero, the privileges and duties of Roman citizenship, the powers of the various magistrates , ' R I , ,V ,,-,j 4. 5 ei ..3l:'.: . w ,, Uv' Y. M. C. A. CABINET Q - :,,:5i,..: N , Mmztgomery County Higlt School 31 and assemblies, the laws, political history and civilization of the Romans are made subjects for special investigation and thorough discussion. GERMAN The aim of the course in German is threefold in charac- ter, viz: the mastery of the grammar, an understanding of the language, both written and spoken, and a familiarity with and an appreciation of German literature. A two years' course is offered. The work in the first year includes a thorough knowledge of the grammar, declension of nouns and adjectives, conjugation of regular and irregular verbs, translation of English sentences into German, translating easy German prose and poetry, drill in grammatical con- struction and German conversation. The work in the second year includes the reading of the German classics, exercises in composition and dictation, study of grammatical con- struction and German conversation. HISTORY ANCIENT AND MEDIEVAL.-The text used in this course is Robinson and Breasted's Outlines of European History. The period covered is from the most ancient times of which there is any authentic record to the close of the seventeenth century. Special attention is given to the Greeks, their liter- ature and art, manners and customs, law-givers, military operations and Grecian influence upon world history. The political organizations of the Romansg the character and religious views of the peopleg the struggle for supremacy between Rome and Carthage, the causes of the decline and fall of the Empire are carefully studied. Feudalism, the Crusades, science and invention, the Reformation, the Wars of religion, struggles between the English kings and Parlia- ment, and the reign of Louis XIV are topics for special investigation and thorough research. ,fl I in in Q wav ,Q A, , V ,w 4 'wg' ,. .

The most important events in European history from the begin- ning of the eighteenth century to the present time are con- sidered. Special attention is directed to the spirit of reform, the struggle between France and England, the French Rev- olution, Napoleon and his influence, the industrial revolution, the German Empire, France as a republic, political and social reforms in England, expansion of Europe in the nine- teenth century, and the last decade of European politics and warfare. Students in this course should make daily use of the splendid collection of historical reference books in the library. ' MEDIEVAL AND MODERN.-The text prescribed for this course is I-Iarding's 'Medieval and 'Modern History. The course covers the period from the time of Charlemange to the present. While due attention is given to feudalism, the Crusades, the Renaissance, the Reformation, the French Revolution, Napoleon and his relation to world progress, the industrial revolution, acquisition of territory by European nations, the Eastern situation, the present European strug- gle, and other important topics, special stress is placed upon those which are intimately connected with American his- tory. The work is planned especially for students taking the Normal Course, that they may be able to place the great events in the history of this country in their proper settings. AMERICAN.-As all pupils of this class have had a year's work in modern history and are supposed to have a fair knowledge of the leading facts of American history, this course is made thorough and searching. The topical plan is followed. Causes and results are carefully considered. Special attention is given to the following topics: Establish- ment of settlements, progress of the colonists, causes and conditions which led to the Revolution, framing the consti- tution, slavery, political parties and the principles advocated, industrial and economic controversies, international affairs X, 'Mr-----H -- .-.e-...Lk ,i. ,, f it -n .

In connection with this Work, careful study is made of the plan and operation of our state and national governments. ECONOMICS A knowledge of the science of economics is of inestimable value to every individual. This science seeks to investigate the problem of wealth and its relation to welfare. The text selected is Burch and Nearing's Elements of Economics. The following are a few of the topics for thorough investigation and research: Economic idealsg consumption of Wealth, including wages and standards of livingg production of wealth, in which natural resources, labor, capital and their relations are consideredg exchange of wealthg distribution of wealth, involving the consideration of rent, interest, pro- fits, wagesg experiments of the employer and the worker: social and economic progress. The utmost freedom is allowed in discussion. This course may be taken in either the first or the second term of the Senior year. CIVICS Two courses in Civics are oH'ered, one in the Business Course and the other in the Normal. A careful study of the constitution is made in each, and in the Normal Course attention is given to methods of teaching the subject. The work of the Constitutional Convention, the process of law- making, the powers and duties of Congress, the duties and prerogatives of the President, the organization and juris- diction of the courts, the duties of ministers and consuls and the Bill of Rights are studied. Pupils are urged to consult as many texts and reference books as possible. The practical workings of elections, enactment of laws and other processes of government are exemplified by the class. Our plan of government is compared with that of each of the leading foreign nations. Due attention is given to the state gov- ernment of Kansas and to the county, township, and city organizations. 1' fs- lm- 'M-.evil -' 1 34 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue PSYCHOLOGY The Mind and Its Education, by Betts, is used as a text, while the works of James, Ladd, Baldwin, Titchener, Dewey, and Angell aid the class in securing other valuable points of view and furnish material for verbal reports and written theses. Particular attention is directed to the factors, principles and laws of attention, appreciation, memory, imagination, thought, emotion and willy and to the means of cultivating these faculties in one's self and in others. Properly studied and applied, no branch can be of more value to students or teacher than the scientific study of the facts of consciousness. In it are set forth the laws of self culture and in it are found the keys to a better understanding of human nature, motives and actions. Thus the aim of the class is: ill To acquire from books a general knowledge of the facts of human consciousness as formulated in principles and laws. Q23 To observe and classify facts in school and everyday life which illustrate these principles and verify these laws. C35 To acquire the habit of con- sciously applying psychological laws in the daily experiences of life and study, in the training of the attention and the powers of observation and memoryg in the healthful cul- tivation of imaginationg in the enlightening and control of thought and feeling, and in the harmonious development and training of the will and character-in short to acquire the power of conscious self direction in all things. Q43 To single out those principles and laws of the mind most em- ployed by those who have to do with the training and edu- cation of the young and to discuss their relative value and proper use. 'METHODS AND MANAGEMENT The work in methods and management is intended for those who are preparing themselves for the profession of teaching.

Montgomery Colzmty H Z gli School 35 is no more essential to successful teaching than is a true concept of the aims and objects of education and a knowledge of the means of attaining them. A careful study of the best thoughts of any great educator will render the young teacher invaluable service in forming his ideas and shaping his plans for their realization. Charters' Teaching the Common Branches and Seeley's New School Management are used as texts. Other standard pedagogical works are used freely as reference books. The end and aim of education, discipline, moral training, environment, methods of con- ducting recitations, principles of class management, kinder- garten and primary methods, and the leading provisions of the school law of Kansas are thoroughly discussed. Model lessons in the various common school branches are given fre- quently by both teacher and pupil. PENMANSHIP We learn to write by writing. A theoretical knowledge of the subject is worth little. The ability to write a plain, legible hand is valuable. Most of the time in this class is therefore devoted to actual practice. Daily' drills in move- ment exercises are given to develop ease and rapidity. Plain business penmanship is taught and no attention given to ornamental pen Work. BOOKKEEPING Two courses in bookkeeping are offered, the first requir- ing one term for its completiong the second, two terms. In the first term's Work the principles of both single and double entry are taught. Thorough drill is given in writing ordinary business forms and journalizing notes, drafts, ship- ments and consignments. Neatness, accuracy and rapidity are insisted upon in all work. During the second term, com- mission, banking and other advanced subjects are taught. The Work is made to conform to the best modern business methods, thus giving the pupil a practical as Well as a T t, Y V, ,,, A - . 'Vif'.i w ' , f ' 'Wdtiifl ' . 1 V ,.

COMMERCIAL LAW Every citizen ought to be familiar with the laws govern- ing ordinary business transactions. Especially should per- sons who expect to engage in active commercial enterprises acquire a knowledge of the general principles upon which the legality of transactions depends. It is the aim of the course to give pupils a fair knowledge of the laws governing contracts, agent and principal, -partnership, corporations, commercial paper, deeds, mortgages, leases, landlord and tenant, collection, interest and such other matters as may be considered of most practical value. The common forms of business papers and contracts are drawn by the students. COMMERCIAL GEOGRAPHY In this age of commercial enterprise and business activity, commercial geography certainly deserves a place in the high school curriculum. This course directs the attention of the student to the natural conditions affecting commerce, human control of commerce, means of transpor- tation, climate as affecting the distribution of animal and vegetable products, sources of mineral wealth, the distribu- tion of manufactures, resources of the various nations, and trade relations of the United States with foreign countries. Causes and effects of existing conditions are traced. Special prominence is given to the study of the commerce of the United States and its possessions. STENOGRAPHY After careful investigation of the merits of the various systems of stenography, the Gregg Light-Line was adopted. The work being done by the schools using this system 4' 'ia 4 1 3 O ,Q .

School 37 seems to justify the claim that it is shorter and more easily learned than any other. The principles are first thoroughly mastered. Care is used to see that pupils make characters and form words accurately and read them readily. Daily dictation exercises are given. A speed of one hundred words a minute is required for graduation. TYPEWRITING Before the student is allowed to use the typewriter, he is required to familiarize himself with its mechanism. Careful attention is given to proper method of fingering. Much practice on simple words is required. The touch system is used. Accuracy and neatness of Work are insisted upon. Speed is developed by persistent, careful practice. A rate of forty words a minute from dictation is required for the completion of the course. . DRAWING Drawing should be given a place in every high school curriculum. Properly taught it trains the mind to recognize and appreciate the beautiful in nature and art and develops in the hand the skill to execute the concepts of the mind. The work of this course is arranged with reference, not only to its culture value, but also to its usefulness, especially to mechanics, science students and teachers. Instruction is given in model and object drawing, principles of light and shade, elements of perspective, mechanical and decorative designing. This subject may be taken as an elective in either the Normal or the General Course. MUSIC VOCAL.-Special attention is given to time, articulation, and tone quality. Besides the rudim-ental work, many songs are taught. Each pupil, in order to complete the course, must be able to determine the home tone in any key: to i2+1alieg'2',iTQ.i', ' ' ' - ' 1-tw: r ., '- - . .H two 11 ...,....-s...a4.e.,....t....,....-..-.. ..,. 38 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue develop the different keysg to know the different signs and principal musical terms, to distinguish between major and minor scale and chords, and to construct the same, and to read at sight simple music in all the keys and in any kind of time.

Pieces by the old masters and the best modern composers used in all grades, and monthly public or private recitals are given by pupils. A class in musical history meets once a Week. Text-book, lMattheW's Musical History. EXPRESSION When voice and body reveal the thought of the mind and the feeling of the heart at the same time, that is Ex- pression. It is the aim of this department to cultivate a clearer intellectual grasp of the printed page, and greater freedom in expression through the channels of voice and body. Elementary exercises in articulation and quality of tone are given and accurate memory work is required. The ff i Montgomery County High School 39 recitation periods are given chiefly to the interpretation of literature, but opportunity is also afforded for the pupil to put his own thoughts into words before an audience. The text used is, Psychological Development of Expression. by Blood and Riley, supplemented by note-book Work and selections chosen to develop naturalness and individuality on the part of each student. REVIEWS The regulations prescribed by the State Board of Edu- cation for the Normal Course in accredited high schools require, in the Senior year, twelve weeks of review in each of the following subjects: Geography, grammar, and read- ing. The essentials in these subjects are carefully and logically presented and emphasis is placed on methods of teaching.

MANUAL TRAINING Training in Manual Arts is a valuable means to an educa- tional end because it takes account of the natural demand in pupils for a physical activity to accompany mental devel- opment. It has been demonstrated that it serve when by proper motivation it creates an interest in the pupil. This may be secured by one of three natural means, viz: 1. The desire to create because the creation satisfies a personal demand in the life of the creator. 2. The desir-e to create because the creation satisfies a demand in the life of some one in Whom the creator is interested. s its purpose 3. The desire to create because in the process of creation the creator will achieve a new goal. ',-', 1 Y I I dx id . ' .fl ' N- ' . ' xii--fp ' 40 Sicvteentlz Annual Catalogue Pupils evidence much more interest in their manual training work when they are concerned with a problem of some social significance. Not only does the making of something which is to render actual service, supply a motive but this motive is intensified if the work under way is developed co-operatively, as in building a chair or a table for the ofiice. Finding real uses for such ability spurs the pupils to seek to develop skill in manual processes. Thus they come to respect honest bodily labor, develop independ- ence and self-reliance, train the eye and sense of form and become industrious. BENCH WORK 1. Care and use of tools. 2.

Invitations were sent to the parents of all students enrolled this year and a general invitation was eX- tended to interested citizens to visit the school, see its equip- ment, examine the Work, and become better acquainted Wlth the teachers. No special display work was prepared for the occasion and in every department the Work of the entire 431355, Whether good or bad, was shown. Splendid exhibits of the regular class work were made by the domestic art depart- ment and by the manual training department. The W1I'9l95S an 'sf YW,-,,,,,,,.,..-hi-ave 62 Sixteenth Annual Catalogue and electrical display in the science department attracted much attention and elicited many words of commendation. The domestic science department served hot biscuits, coffee, and candied fruit to all of the visitors. Notwithstanding the heavy shower of rain which fell early in the afternoon, more than a thousand people responded to the invitation and ob- tained clearer ideas of some of the things the school is doing for the boys and girls of the county. The past year has, in many respects, been the best since the school was established. The total enrollment, 476, ex- ceeded the highest previous record by 83. This enrollment entitles the Montgomery County High School to the honor of being the largest county high school in the state. More rural pupils than ever before were in attendance, the total being 196. Students and Faculty worked in harmony and a pleas- ant and profitable year was the natural result. Excellent work was done in all departments by almost all the students. Prospects are bright for a splendid school the coming year. Fifteen teachers who have taught successfully from one to sixteen years in this school and two new teachers with special preparation and years of experience in their respect- ive departments give assurance that the Faculty will be one of the best in the state. Indications are favorable to a decided increase in the enrollment. The changes which you are making in the library, recitation rooms, and gymnasium will be helpful in increasing the efficiency of the work. An excellent library and adjacent study hall, two well equipped science laboratories, a manual training department provided with standard benches and high grade machinery and tools, domestic science and art departments with complete equip- ment, the numerous courses offered, and the strong corps of teachers selected should commend this institution to the boys and girls of the county as a suitable place in which to secure a high school education.
