College life should have given to you facts and habits of thought that will be of great value to you in making decisions regarding the momentous changes now in the making. May the training received here, and the friendships formed here, be of help to you toward living the more abundant life during this period of transition. Sincerely, The Administration I J[ave you met the administration? Don’t you re-member registration and the day you skipped class? The occasions for meeting Dean Delzell, Dean Dunning, or Mrs. Marsh vary ... X. Y. A. work, college work, absence excuses, grades, and other problems that arise in the course of a year of college life. Mr. Hayward and Miss Albrecht spend their time getting you and me into the right classes at the right time and keeping the records relative to college work. The ladies who readily relieve unsuspecting students of class fees, contingent fee, and dormitory rent and board are Miss Gockley and Miss West. In short the administration under President Pate is the director of both curricular and extra-curricular activities in the college. It is the business head and executive body. W. X.

Educational Psychology, “problacts”, methods, and practice teaching? Classroom Maxagf.ment Psychoi.ocv The Department of Education Thk Education Department emphasizes theory and practice. In the T. J. Majors Training School everyone has the opportunity of trying his theories of teaching. The Training School has all the grades from kindergarten through the senior high school classes. Faculty supervisors of student teachers give helpful suggestions as to how to keep Johnny quiet, how to get Mary to do a few lessons, and the answers to at least sixty-nine other problems that confront one who is new in the field of teaching.

The chemists thrive on the odors that emerge from the “Chem lab”, and the physicists hear no sweeter music than the queer sounds that escape from the physics lab. In the early courses of the biology department one makes the acquaintance of such ordinary beings as the earthworm, grasshopper, frog, and crayfish; however, advanced courses are given in zoology, botany, physiology, parisitology, and genetics. ut down six and carry two”, “X is equal to 745”, The square of the hypotenuse is ... ” All this is simple after a student has completed the courses in trigonometry, college geometry, and calculus. .93 Arthur L.

Courses are given in painting, drawing, lettering, clay modeling, and handcrafts to allow expression of ideas in a tangible form. Tools of all shapes, sizes, and uses, have unbelievable possibilities when used by the fingers of skilled workmen. In the Industrial Arts department students learn to handle shop equipment as well as make furniture, novelties, and household furnishings. From the Home Ec” room in the basement of the Training School come odors of delicious foods that are in the process of preparation. The whirring sewing machines in another room inform all that the wise thing to do is “make it yourself”. A. V. Larson C. R.

Two major projects of the year were the Christmas and spring editions of “Sifting Sand”, a magazine of Peru verse, which is printed on the local chapter’s printing press. In December Sigma Tau Delta Members presented Anna Best Joder’s play, “The Perfect Gentleman”, as a Convocation program.

The purpose of the organization is the inculcation of the ideals of scholarship, scientific attitude, method, and social service in relation to all social problems. Members are elected from those of junior and senior rank who have a superior scholastic record and who are majoring or minoring in history, social science, or geography. Probably one of the outstanding programs of the year consisted of Mr. Clayburn’s discussion of the process and problems in publishing his recent text on Nebraska geographical features. Other meetings during the year were given over to informal discussions of current issues and social topics of the past. In March twenty-three members of this group visited the Nebraska unicameral legislature and the state capitol building.

It also gives background and experience of value to anyone for teaching and becoming a home maker. The ideals and the ultimate goal are high in order that a girl must strive to attain them. A party was given in the autumn for all girls taking work in the department of home economics. The programs of the meetings are devoted to discussions of fields other than teaching into which home economics might lead.

Their primary function concerns the arrangements for the allcollege dances throughout the year. An important accomplishment of the year was the purchasing of the public address system to furnish music for the dances.

Team practices and tournaments include each separate sport. The sports are: Hitpin Ball, Volley Ball. Basketball, and Baseball. Swimming, Hiking, Ping Pong, Tennis, Track, and Paddle Tennis arc also included under the minor sports program. By way of fostering school spirit the W. A.

At the end of the year the Everett Literary Society will have completed its sixty-fifth year. The original aim of the organization was to enable the student to learn how to express himself in public and to give the listeners something valuable and interesting. In keeping with this aim, the programs of the society are built around the various abilities of its members. Any talent along dramatic and music lines, as well as literary ability, is given an opportunity for expression. The outstanding event of the year was the faculty tea sponsored by the Everetts. The membership of the society is limited to seventy-five. New members are elected into the society twice each year after careful consideration of qualifications.

It was organized simultaneously with the admission of the state into the union in 1867 and the founding of this college. It was originally a debating society. Later the purposes were stated as literary and forensic culture. Today the society sponsors high standards and ideals by expansion into every phase of education. Philo develops the social interests of its members, and music, speeches, dramatics, and social discussions play a great part in the monthly programs. Miss Kenton, faculty adviser and sponsor, has been largely responsible for the success of the organization during this year. She has constantly served as a guide for the officers and organization in whatever project they have undertaken.

Persons who are majors or minors in music and who have completed sixteen hours of music with a “B” average are declared eligible for active membership in this organization. The group sponsored a party for all members of every musical organization on the campus. Members of the faculty interested in music were invited to attend all meetings. 94 The Peruvian Burke Johnson Ware STAFF MEMBERS THE STAFF Blanche Freeman Ruth Howe Marjorie Lammers Charlotte Wedcrquist Jack Heck Ray Kellogg William Mooney Frederick Wolter E. Virginia Johnson - Editor J. William Burke - Business Manager Dr. Frank E. Ware - - Sponsor It is for you to say whether this yearbook under a different staff organization has been successful or not. This year rather than giving official titles to each staff member and restricting him to one phase of yearbook production, the editor and business manager have selected helpers who have been called upon for assistance in various phases of the yearbook conception and organization. Behind the staff, Dr. Ware, the faculty adviser, has always been present to exert a guiding influence and aid in avoiding or surmounting difficulties. In the latter part of October the editor and business manager attended the National Scholastic Press Association Convention in Louisville, Kentucky. Here much of the inspiration and many of the ideas embodied in this book were gleaned. It is the hope of the staff of the 1937 PERUVIAN that in this yearbook we have caught the general spirit and atmosphere of the school ... its student body, faculty, activities, and athletics. We trust that in the hours of collecting, checking, and writing of copy, planning page layouts, organizing sections, mounting pictures, and proof reading we have not obscured our goal. This year the faculty committee has awarded Peruvian Keys to E. Virginia Johnson and J. William Burke for their work in the production of this annual. They in turn wish to express their thanks to the staff members for the assistance lent them.

Elaine Shafer, as editor, Charles Parnell, make-up editor, and John Heck and Norman Littrell as sports editors, worked to accomplish this purpose. Miss Marion Marsh of the English department assumed her third year of sponsorship of the Pedagogian. She has taken over this position with a complete knowledge of journalism and school publications gained through previous experience. The course in newswriting has been made a requirement for English majors and minors. This has raised the level of efficiency with which the news is handled. The class is taught in a laboratory method, and the reporters have been acquainted with journalism from both the literary and mechanical angles. ... The policy of the paper is to serve as a record of activities and to pro- sentlhenfin an unhiaLr manner, in addition to the school, the paper carries two humor columns aj Dra eUes£%£££ sketches, and student sketches. It � Ifi has enjoyed it -MS,0of faculty and stu-dents. 96 T H L E T I C S ‘57 PEBUVIfttl Coach Glen Gilkeson has completed his seventh year of coaching at Peru State Teachers College. In that time some of his teams may have tasted defeat, but they have learned the qualities of sportsmanship that sometimes are overlooked in the effort to win. The 1936 football season cannot be judged by scores; it must be rated in terms of the number and quality of men who were broken in during the season. Coach Glen Gilkeson Coach Stuart Baller in his year and one-half at Peru has earned for himself an honored position in the estimation of those in the athletic department as well as the entire college. This year he built up a team of such caliber as to tie for the conference title in basketball. His 1937 team met the University of Montana team in a match that showed our team to advantage. 98 Coach Stuart Baller 1936 Football When the 1936 football team named Wayne Riggs to the position of Honorary Captain, they named one of the greatest athletes in Peru history. When the 1937 basketball summary was made, Captain Wayne Riggs closed his basketball career with 157 points for the season high point honors. In his four years of competition, Wayne has garnered twelve major letters in the three major sports. In addition to his four years at forward on the basketball team and four years in the back-field on the gridiron, he runs the 100 yard dash in 9:8 seconds, the 220 yard dash in 21.5 seconds, and jumps 22 feet 8 inches in the broad jump. He’s a true Bobcat if there ever was one. Wayne Rices Football Squad Top Now: Raymond Francis. Howard Dean. Orville Pugh, Bernard Bari mis. Gilbert Purucker, LcRoy Christensen. Theron Parker.

Wayne led in conference scoring, having made a total of 231 points in 6 games for an average of 38 points a game. Peru led in defensive, having only 190 points in 6 games or an average of 33 1 3 points a game scored against her. In like a kitten and out like a Bobcat was the talc of Peru’s 1936-37 basketball team. Maryville opened the season by gaining a 40-29 victory, and Nebraska B fell in the final game 48-37. In conference tilts the Bobcats started slow, but finished with six wins and two losses, to tie Wayne for the first place in the conference. The Cats administered a double spanking to Kearney, and 103 ‘37 PETUIVIftn ‘37 PERUVIftn K Bailey Greathouse Dean broke even with Chadron and Wayne. In the first game with Kearney, Halladay took his position in the regular line-up replacing Mel Workman who was eliminated by an injured knee. In the second Kearney game, the outstanding player was McCormick who was ably assisted by Riggs and Dean. In the first tilt with Chadron, the Peru boys found too much Tetzner in Chadron’s team, but the next evening through the combined efforts of Riggs, Dean, and McCormick, Peru came out on the long end of the score. The first meeting with Wayne found the Peru Bobcats hampered by the flu epidemic. Wayne won by all-around playing. In the game later in the season, however, Halladay led 104 McCormick Peru’s attack by making six baskets. The score ended 43-27 in Peru’s favor. Outside of the conference games, Peru played Montana in the highlight game of the season for Nebraska colleges. The game was marked by a record crowd with excitement running wild. With eight minutes left to play the score stood Peru 26, Montana 24. The reserve strength of Montana finally made the score stand 51-37 in Montana’s favor. In the season’s initial game Maryville defeated Peru in the only meeting of the two teams; likewise, Hastings defeated the Bobcats, giving them the short end of the final count twice. In the mean- Halladay 105 ‘37 PERUVIftn AAgggi •‘37 PEflUVIftn-s- Mosely Pugh Platenberc time Peru took two games from Wesleyan and nosed out two from Doane. Tarkio traded games with Peru early in the season, and in the closing months Nebraska B won a one-pointer, and then dropped a decisive victory to the Bobcats. Nearly every game had its individual stars. In scoring of points Riggs led with 157 points, and he was followed in succession by McCormick who made 131 points, Dean 84 points, Halladay 59 points, and Bailey 50 points. Workman, an early leader for scoring honors, injured his knee and was forced from active competition during the last part of the season. He was credited with 44 points. Workman’s place was aptly taken by Halladay during the latter part of the season. 106 SCHEDULE Dec. 10 Maryville 40 Dec. 18 Tarkio 40 Dec. 21 Uni.

Hoban threw the javelin 169 feet 6 inches for the other first position. The 1937 season has prospects for even a more successful season. Tennis T„,s season will find two tennis lettermen returning, Heck and Perdue. These augmented by Wayne Schaffer, Jerome Snyder, and Bill and Bob Mooney should bring to the front a strong tennis team. Prospects for this tennis season are much brighter than they were for last year’s schedule.

The request came back immediately, marked “granted”. Was it because (1) the office thought Dr .Winter needed the books? (2) the office made a mistake? (3) the office had a surplus of money and wanted to spend some of it? Answer: Miss Gockley was on her vacation. Problem: Girls Club didn’t meet Wednesday at its regular time. Was it because (1) the auditorium burned up? (2) Mary Katherine Hanlan was ill? (3) the girls had a sit-down strike on the campus lawn? Answer: Mrs. Dunning misplaced her scrapbook. THAT BLOND AGAIN Love is nothing but a game, So all the poets say. But if love is nothing but a game, I went out on a triple play. “Beg Pardon,” said the hotel clerk at the Corn-husker during the State Teachers Convention, “but what is your name?” “Name!” echoed indignant Grace Tear, who had just registered, “Don't you see my signature there on the register?” “I do,” answered the clerk calmly, “that is what aroused my curiosity. 1910 - - BUT STILL GOING STRONG: Mr. Heck: “I want the ‘Life of Julius Caesar.’ ” Ethel Glosser: “I’m sorry. Brutus is ahead of you.” The Engine SOME MORE PRE-WAR STUFF: Gretciien Miller: “When was the revival of learning?” Dr. Maxwell: “Before the last exam.” N. Y. A. (The place? - - Ye good old White House.) (The people? - - Two politicians.) “We need some votes, my dear John Doe, Election day is coming, And if I don’t keep on this job My gosh, I’ll be a-bumming. Now sir, you see it is the youth (According to the Digests) Who’ll have the say on next poll day - -Dear me, we must get things to humming.” They canvassed all the colleges They searched through all the towns, And after months of good red-tape, This is what they found: Our youth, our own forgotten youth, Our youth needs recreation - - So out of all this fuss, it came - - The National Youth Administration!

Galbraith even forgot to talk. Now that I’ve got you all a-guessin’ Here’s the reason—“Class had their lesson.” 126 The Baggage Car IT CANT HAPPEN HERE: May 21, 1947: “Tell me, Pete,” entereated Doris Conwell Clark gazing into her mirror, “do you think I am still as pretty as you used to say I was when you first married me ten years ago?” Said Pete: “Certainly not.” Dormitory girls’ council in unison in answer to a “suggestion” offered by the dean: “NO, Mrs. Dunning!” One of the new members gives the acceptance speech at an initiation banquet of some fraternity or other: “I’m not proud and thrilled to join this organization, and if I didn’t think it would give me a pull, I wouldn’t be here tonight. I’m willing to do anything—if I can’t get out of it.” AGED IN OAK: Anna Louise Short: “What do you mean he’s too old? Ruth Nicholas: “Why he’s so old he can remember when 'neck’ was a noun; ‘pansy’ was a flower; and ‘Fanny’ was a girl’s name.” BOTTLED IN BOND: If a freshman were as wise as he thinks he is, a sophomore as wise as he thinks other people think he is, a junior as wise as he thinks he will be, and a senior as wise as everybody thinks he should be— the Peru State Teachers College would sell out. Richard Sherman was asked why he wasn’t in class yesterday: “Professor, I didn’t have ptomaine poisoning, a bad cold, or a sprained ligament. My grandmother’s great-aunt is still alive, and I didn’t watch the door for the such and such contest. I deliberately skipped class, prof., cause I was so darned bored I thought I’d die.” Mrs. Marsh to a poor little freshman girl: “I know you’re 40 minutes late, but we’ll let it go this time.” The owners of “Puzt” trying to sell it to some dumb cluck: “It’s in a heck of a shape but it will do 20 miles to a gallon. Drive one and walk nineteen! ” AN AMERICAN PRODUCT Margaret Vance: “Little boy, can I go through this gate?” Paul Clark: “Guess so, a load of hay went thru it this morning. THE SONG OF THE FAT GIRL My life is one of hardship, My troubles they are many; I’d give my kingdom (and the horse) If I were only skinny. My favorite chair is reinforced, My bed is doubly strong; And when I walk upon a floor It shakes—Oh me, ’tis wrong. And when I go buy a dress. The clerk says (holding up a tent) “This lovely garment, it will fit After—ahem—it’s let out a bit. Though I, my sports and swimming mix, I’m still a perfect fifty-six! 127 The old maleman decided it was well into the season to change his socks, but when he went to get his other pair, he found they were stuffed full of odds and ends. He thrust in his thumb and pulled out—the cutest doll. It walks, it talks, and egad, it sings! “Ah, la, la, for that’s the life for mee-e- e!” Here’s a tag. A Prichard doll, and its name is Harold. Sh, Mr. Maleman, try again. This time it’s a cute little mansion from Ord, but what would we do with a Greathouse like that. A toss and away he goes . . . (he’ll be Kamen around the mountain . . .) Another delve into the No. 14’s. A small booklet edited by the Men’s Club, entitled “What Every Peru Hoy Should Know:” P. 13. Caution. “Beware of confidence men —especially at Wcare’s.” P. 42. Blankets. “Blankets are very valuable and should be treated carefully, as they serve two purposes—they can be used for warmth in winter, or as a spread in summer. P. 59. Time. (Past, present, and future.) If you go with a freshman and wish to keep the correct time, buy a wrist watch, a pocket watch, and an alarm clock. Set the pocket watch for dorm time, the wrist watch for school time and the alarm clock for eating time. Then listen for the town whistle. You should be wrong on all three of your other timepieces to be right with the town clock. P. 95. Beds. If you are locked out some night and are looking for a hotel, try Higgins. (That is, if you aren’t already there.) It is a most hospitable house—and the beds— not a bump in a boatload. The Male Car “My word, what’s this. Another doll with a “P” on its sweater. A strange-looking knight of old Peru with: Hair like “Mose” Mosley’s Forehead like Freddie Brockman’s Eyes like David “Lollypoppsie” Zimmerman’s Complexion like Wayne Lindberg’s Torso like “Slim” McCormick’s Legs like Glenn Sheelcy’s Feet like Bob Weber’s Mouth like “Joe” Kniess’s Manners like Jerry Snyder’s Voice like Bill Plattenbcrg’s For gosh sakes, throw it away before it laughs like Georgie Lytton. A big lump near the toe of the sock turns out to be a silver-plated loving cup. “Presented to Robert Badham and Elaine Dodd by the Peru college investigating committee for the best and most outstanding example of true love as seen on the campus proper during the school year 1936-1937. IMA POST ETIQUETTE FOR PERU MEN Lesson No. 1—How to Act on a Date 1. Remain seated when she comes into the room. She will think this is cave-mannish and adore you for it. 2. Say Hi Babe! sit down till I get through with the sport page.” This will thrill her— it’s very man-about-I’eruish. 3. Walk down to the show and be sure and walk on the inside if it’s muddy. A car might splash mud on your cords. 4. When you get to the theatre, borrow a buck from her. This (if forgotten) will bring her closer to you. 5. Laugh all the time at the show, and at each laugh give her a poke in the ribs. Girls like a lot of attention. 6. Don’t stop to eat, as you won’t have time. 7. Wait until the lights blink, then make a dash for the door. 'Phis is great sport and adds zest to the evening—especially if you get there late. (If she gets campused, you don’t have to worry about her dating out for awhile.) 8. After you leave her, meander over to the Campus Shop and feed up. If you do all the above, you should be able to go to sleep with a clear conscience. 128 The Parlor Car RULES FOR THIS CAR (Will the following people take Special notice.) 1.

OUR OWN BELIEVE IT OR NOT: Dick Magill has to tic his neckties on the doorknob. Dorothy Maystrick once got a grade lower than an “A”. Johnnie Green and Winnie Hall weren’t sitting neck to neck in the parlor. Evie Jones had a wrinkle in her dress. Jeanne Burgncr was called down for being too loud. Jack Heck was once speechless. Charlotte Martin doesn’t bleach her hair. Mable Mitchell forgot to stop after class and talk to her professors. Willis Ludington had his history lesson. Mary Ellen Slack went somewhere without Mary Liz Werner. Betty Stenglein sang soprano. Kenneth Mann asked a girl for a date. Jo Rogers wore a coat on a warm spring day. Eleanor Campbell’s and Mildred Parli’s room had a speck of dust in it. Jim Perdue forgot to be nice. The dorm kitchen staff didn’t quarrel over who was supposed to have the left-over ice cream. The plumbers walked down the hall without staring in a single room. Hank Kellogg didn’t grin at everyone he knew. Ruth Ann Hill acted natural. Pat Casey found someone who didn’t like her.

They must have bought a couple of carloads of it at some fire sale. Why don’t they give us strawberry.” “Take that shoe off the table.” The Diner “That’s not a shoe, my fran, that’s a piece of toast.” “Pass me the Grape-nuts. I must get my vitality up for this exam Dr. Albert is going to give. You have to know the whole darned book. I said Grape-nuts, please.” “Ye gods, do you have to chew them so hard. You sound like a horse eating petrified corn.” “Hey, I wanted coffee.” “Well, why didn’t you put your spoon up.” “I did long ago, if you’d only use your eyes.” “Shut up, you eggs, the dean’s giving us some dirty looks.” “Who cares.” “Dibs on the extra apple.” “You had it yesterday.” “All right, baby, you can have it.” “What arc we waiting for, an earthquake. Let’s go.” AN APPLICATION LETTER AS WE’D LIKE TO WRITE IT: Peru, Nebraska, April 10, 1937. Mr. U. B. deBoss, Director, School District No. 13, Pumkin Center, Nebraska. Dear Toots: A little bird tells me that the palooka you’ve got trying to educate the brats in your district has been fed up and intends joining a circus as a lion tamer. If the birdie knows his onions, and what birdie don’t, I’d like to take a shot at the job, providing the yokels lay enough on the line to keep me in socks and bath salts. I spent the required twelve years in the Podunk public schools, and was I glad to get out! 1 took a normal training course in high school because it looked like a pipe, and I am now in my second year at Peru, the school where men are so scarce and women so plentiful that every male student is a potential Bluebeard. I will be issued some kind of a certificate in June and the old man says I’ve got to get out and hustle so please may I have the job? I am not bad looking, (photo on request with ten cents for postage), and I know my A-B-C’s and my way around. For further information contact Joe Punches, Jake Branstitre, Bill Mooney, J. William Burke or the football team. On second thought, they may not be able to confirm the A-B-C part of it. Or perhaps you want personal demonstration, pardon me, application? Thanks for the job, Toots, and when do I get my first check? Lovingly, Ima T. Cher. 130 Observation Platform CONVOCATION (To get a cross-section glimpse of life on the campus, one can’t overlook that bugbear of students— a typical convocation.) ‘‘The Lord is my .Shepherd, I shall not want . . ‘‘Before 1 make the announcements, Mr. Paul has a message. Mr. Paul.” “Y. M. C. A. will meet in the east side of the Music Hall to-night at 8 o’clock. We are going to talk about Estes. All men are invited. Very interesting.” “Miss Johnson has an announcement from the Peruvian office. Miss Johnson.” “The list is up on the bulletin board for Peruvian reservation. If your name isn’t on the list, and you want a Peruvian, reserve yours now. The Peruvian office will be open Wednesday afternoon at float periods. This is absolutely your last chance to have a Peruvian reserved for you.” “N. Y. A. checks are in the office. Please sign them at once. This is the third day they’ve been here, and many of them aren’t signed. Don’t you folks care for money? (Joke) Tee hee.”........... “Y. W. will meet to-night in the west side of the Music Hall at 8 o’clock. We arc going to talk about Estes.” “Will the Perusingers remain after convocation in the front of section C for a short talk about their concerts .... Residence girls remain for a short meeting to discuss party in back of Section B on the left side .... will the old P club members meet in center section front for short meeting. Very important . . . Episcopal Club please meet in front section A for a few moments . . . will the Girls Club Council stay for just a minute and see Mrs. Dunning in Section C, the three middle rows. Please be there . . . Everetts will hold a short meeting in back Section B to talk about best way to collect dues . . . Pi Gamma Mu meet in back of Section A. Mr. Heck wants to see all members for just a moment. You too, Mr. Reynolds . . . Mr. Nabors would like to see Charles Parnell and the Dramatic Club for just a short meeting in the middle rows of Section B . . . will Kappa Phi remain for just a very short time in back of Section C. “Convocation dismissed.” (And the faculty got up and slowly walked away!) COLLEGE STUDENTS (A theme as a freshman would write it.) All youth is divided into two species—college students and non-college students. You can always tell a non-college student—he has some money. College students come to college for a number of reasons, such as: (I) they got into some kind of a scrape at home, (2) they are looking for a man (that is, the skirts are), (3) they are too dumb to get a job, (4) it gives them a chance to borrow on their insurance policy. (They’ve heard a lot about this from the old man, and they’ve always wanted to try it.) College students are usually blondes and brunettes. Once in awhile there are some who have peculiarly colored hair. They are'called “titians.” These “titians” don’t look any different from the blondes and brunettes (anyway, not much), but whenever a female “titian” walks by, all the trousered college students sigh and say, “Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, and oh boy!” College students don’t like to look nice. They hate being neat. They think a suit is what one takes to court; breeches is the plural of heart-balm cases; and clean socks are what Joe Louis puts out. College students are very adept at the game called “bluffing.” After four years of it on the varsity squad, they are handed an honorable discharge (if they’re good), which really means that they can play a good game of cards, throw a mean pair of dice, and recognize twenty different kinds of grass. Ze sad sad end. Dl Mt. Vernon Academy, 1866 THE FIRST CAMPUS BUILDING on the site of present Mount Vernon Hall In 1865 a group of citizens including Dr. John Neal, Major William Daily, Rev. Burch, S. P. Majors (Father of Colonel Thomas Majors), and others decided to organize an academy, and they secured the services of Dr. J. M. McKenzie and Mrs. McKenzie for instructors. The first school was held in a store building still standing downtown. In 1866 the same group of men with many other citizens constructed a building, as pictured above, on the tree-less hilltop where school was held in 1866. The school was under the general supervision of the Methodist Conference. In 1867 under the leadership of young Colonel Thomas J. Majors and Major William Daily, members of the first State Legislature, the academy was taken over by the State and Nebraska’s first State Normal School was established. Thus began the teacher training work, not only in Nebraska, but in the territory west of the Missouri River, as Peru is the oldest State Teachers Training Institution west of the Missouri River. The traditions of Peru are rich in song and story. The old bell that has rung since in the 60’s still rings each school day with the same clear tone that it did seventy years ago when it was purchased. Peru started as an Academy in 1865, became a State Normal School in 1867 (70 years ago), and since 1921 has been a State Teachers College, issuing A. B. Degrees and now is in class “A” of the American Association of Teachers Colleges and also in class “A” North Central Association of Colleges. Thousands have attended Peru since it was first organized in ’67, and 5000 have received their diplomas, and since 1921 nearly 1000 have received their A. B. Degrees. There are thousands of students who received their inspiration in the old school who are teaching throughout the state, the nation, and the world. Wherever a Peruvian is found, he shows the same devoted loyalty and profesional spirit in his work as he always has shown for his beloved institution from which he was graduated. 132 Fine Food at Its Best “A standard product for 21 years” Olympia Candy Kitchen GREENE’S ICE CREAM and Cafe —™ Nebraska City, Nebraska Nebraska City, Nebraska Phone 160 Shop at Werner's “The first with the latest” WHEN IN NEBRASKA CITY Complete clothing needs for men Ladies Ready-to-Wear who will be well dressed Berkshire Hosiery Luxitc Underwear THOMAS CLOTHING CO.
