When he was but two his father died, leaving his mother and a sister three years older than himself. They lived upon a farm at this time near Olney, Illinois. At the age ot' five he started to the litttle country school. situated a mile and a half from his home. After completing his work there he attended the Olney High School, from which he was graduated the valedictorian of his class. He then taught school at Wynoose and also at Sumner, lllinois. After this he attended the Normal at Carbonale. from which he was graduated, again with the highest honors. lfpon completing the Normal course, he accepted a position as prin- cipal ol' the Paxton schools, where he remained five years. llnring this time he attended summer school at Chicago Uni- versity and took correspondence work during the winter, later being graduated from that institution. In 1902 he accepted a position in the Seattle I-ligh School as head oi' the English Department, holding this place three years. In the summer of 1.9071 he returned to Paxton. where he was married to Miss llorsey formerly a student ot' his in the High School ol' that city.
