I-IISTGRY ffm? sci-IooL HE SCHOOL completed in June its seventy-fourth year of continuous oper- ation in the city of Boonville, and its seventy-third on its present site. Its opening day was Monday, June 3, 1844. Its founder was Professor Frederick T. Kemper, of Virginia, who continued in active control until his death in March, 1881. The present Superintendent became a teacher in the School in 1868 and Superintendent in 1881. It is far the oldest boys' academy in Missouri, and the only unendowed school of any considerable age in the State that has achieved success, and enjoyed the steady confidence and patronage of the public.
