rf L4 5'-S '-'K wfufaieiuemzlruteneue OUR '1'EACH.liR Pl ONEERS HE word Adventure suggests the seeking out of new things. Colum- bus, Lincoln, Xvashington, Pasteur, Edison, Nlilton were adventurers, because they felt the grip of new ideas and had the courage to put those ideas into action-to risk their lives, if need be, that those ideas might live. South High, too, may write a history of its adventurers. Today the school has, as in the past it had, its men and women who are giving to the world of education something new, something progressive. One of South's first adventurers and one who has gained national recog- nititon is Nliss lNlaren Nlichelet. ln 1910, at lylr. -lorgenls suggestion, she had the honor of organizing and teaching the first class in Norse in any public secondary school of the United States. Nliss lNlichelet next ven- tured to write a Norse text-book, which has since been adopted by most high schools and colleges in the Lfnited States. The same year, Nliss Nlarie Johnson of South High School was the first teacher in this country to organize a class in Swedish. The students and faculty of the school last September paid tribute to the memory of this beloved teacher when they assembled for the dedication of a land- scape by the great Swedish painter, Genberg. The picture was purchased for the school through a fund left by her for the furtherance of Swedish art and culture. Miss VVinnifred Schureman, another adventurer, was one of the first to recognize the need of regular instruction in grammar and spelling in the secondary schools. Her f'Blue Speller has been widely used in the schools of the city, and its lists have served as the basis for the minimum requirement words. lVliss Schureman was one of the pioneers who de- manded a fixed standard of achievement, which has worked out into the minimum requirement tests. lt was Miss Schureman, too, who devised the English notebook, now used in most of the lN'linneapolis schools: who instituted in South High School courses in expression for freshmen: who organized skippers classes for pupils of unusual ability and technical classes for retarded pupils: who advocated and organized in South classes in modern drama, expression, journalism, and public speaking, who in- augurated our present system of optional English. Of great importance in the field of drama has been the work of another English teacher, Nliss Helen R. Fish. ln the year l9l6, bliss Fish organ- ized her first class in modern drama. ln the same year she put into prac- tice her idea of having the seniors choose and present dramas of real value for their class plays. 'lihose who have seen South High's production of lilfIfd5ll77l71lKl'Alfglllhf llrvanz, Peer Gym, or Romeo and Juliet realize how successful her venture has proved. Miss Mary l.aVigne was one of the first, as Well as one of the most successful, in the teaching of language by the direct methodf' At the beginning of her first term French classes, no text was used. The conver- sational method alone is employed until the pupils become familiar with Nofhing is foo high for the Ilflfillg' of m0rfal.v. Page Ei-9hfl'F7l
