SjUpMMSL Active participants in the State Normal Board's items of business were President Cushing., E, L. Randall, President Nicholas of Peru. Ralph Carhart, president of the board,, Beverly Haxby, A. D. Majors, Bertha I. Hill, and President Morey of Wayne, The unsung heroes of the education field are members of the State Board of Education, who take tune out from their business to meet and discuss the problems of the four state teachers colleges. No salaries are paid these public officials, they are not backed by any political party, thus their concern is always centered on the four schools they serve. The oldest member on the board, from the point of service, was Edgar Ferneau, who passed away Friday, December 5, 1947. He was 76 years of age at the time of his death. Mr. Ferneau had served the board since 1931. During this time, he was chairman of the legis- lative committee, and also one-time president of the board. While his profession was that of an attorney, Mr. Ferneau also found time to act as chairman of the Republican State Central Committee. Perhaps Mr. Ferneau's greatest service to the board was the proposal he presented to the legislature of 1921 that established the State Board of Education as a constitutional body. This resolution provided for a board of seven members, six of which ere appointed by the qovernor, and the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who becomes a member by virtue of his office, Each member serves a term of six years, and his office is not retractable because of political reasons. E. D. Crites, a Chadron attorney, has served the board for three terms. Among his many interests is the Masonic Lodge, in which he has attained a high degree. Ralph Carhart is noted as being a man of substantial business knowledge, and has gained much respect because of his success in his lumberyard at Wayne. A hometown man. E. L. Randall has a background of the educational problems of the colleges because he is a graduate of Nebraska State Teachers College, and has also served as superintendent of schools at Bladen. A. D Majors of Omaha has almost inherited his post on the board. His uncle, Colonel Thomas Ma- jors, served on the board for many years. The wise and judicious counsel of Mrs Bertha I. Hill is much appreciated by board members as they seek the story of college, not only from the business angle, but also from the viewpoint of a mother. Mrs. Hill is noted for her work with the Federation of Women's Clubs. Wayne O. Reed, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, has proved his value to the board by being a man of action and ideas, Page t5
