C.J. BREWER Charles J. Brewer, who will soon retire as Principal of the Training School and Vice President of the College, has taught or directed teaching for more than fifty years. All of his educational work has been done in Wisconsin. When the Eau Claire State Teachers College was established in 1916, he was selected by President Schofield to be Vice President and Principal of the Training School. Before coming to Eau Claire, he was, for five years, Superintendent of Schools at Chippewa Falls, and, prior to that, at New Richmond and Ellsworth. At one time, he was Superintendent of Schools of Pierce County. He began his professional career as teacher of a rural school near Maiden Rock, Wisconsin, his birthplace. He is a graduate of the River Falls State Teachers College, and holds a Bachelor of Education degree. In 1931, Mr. Brewer was elected President of the Wisconsin Educational Association and, since then, has been a member of the association’s Governing Board. He has also been President of the Northwestern Wisconsin Teachers Association. Few Wisconsin educators are as widely known in the state as Mr. Brewer, and none is held in higher esteem. He has been for many years an important influence in the progress of education in this state. For this contribution he will not be forgotten; for his kindly and able teacher, his sympathetic friendship, and his sterling character he will continue to be respected and affectionately remembered. On behalf of the college—its students and its faculty—the Periscope bids Mr. Brewer farewell and Godspeed. May he live long and enjoy the greater leisure his services to society merit.

After twenty-two years of outstanding service as Principal of the Training School and Vice President of the Eau Claire State Teachers College, Charles J. Brewer will retire from teaching at the close of the present scholastic year. He will be succeeded by Eugene McPhce, an alumnus of this school and, since 1932, Principal of the Junior High of the Training School. Mr. McPhce holds a B. Ed. degree from the Eau Claire State Teachers College, where lie completed the four-year High School Teachers Course in 1931, and an M.A. degree in Education from the University of Minnesota, granted in 1934. He served with notable success as Superintendent of Schools at Winter, Wisconsin, from 1923 to 1930, and at Elk Mound, Wisconsin, in 1931-1932. Although a young man, Mr. McPhce is already recognized as one of the leading educators of Northwestern Wisconsin. The Periscope extends to him its best wishes for success as the Training School’s new Director.
