Major F. N. Henderson l Major R. E. Wilkinson MAJOR F. N. HENDERSON Having been a cadet himself, Major Hen- derson knows our feelings, our sentiments, our wishes, our troubles. As o Commandant, he is strict, and upon him our discipline is based; but he is kind and fair to everybody, and regards the cadets os his own. His gun col- lection is well known by the cadets, os is his favorite hobby, fishing. He is clever, witty, cheerful, and his humor mokes the cadets happy; they will always remember him with o feeling of appreciation, friendship, and respect. Our Commandant . . . we ' ll never forget you. F A C U L T MAJOR R. E. WILKINSON Major Wilkinson has been at Western for the past 36 years, and, if you think about it, you will find that 36 years is a very, very long time. He has been an invaluable asset to the school in many ways. His most important undertaking is that of teaching mathematics, . . . and an exceptionally oble teacher he is. He is always willing to help the cadets In any way at ony time, and when little Major Wilkinson is not around, everybody feels that something is missing. . . . that is how tightly his life has been linked with the school. CAPTAIN W. J. BUCK Energy, exactitude, and punctuality are three wonderful qualities that describe the character of Captain Buck. He teaches Latin and German, and under his strict and com- petent instruction, the cadets realize that they are here to stu dy, not to loaf. Captain Buck attended Concordia Teachers College apd has taught at the universities of Missouri and Tennessee. He takes care of the cadet bank, and it is amazing to see how joyfully he does it, and that his books are always as exact as a clock. Military schools need men like him, strict, exact, ond always full of life and vigor. MAJOR H. E. SUHRE For the past nine years Major Suhre has been of great value to this school of ours. As the head of the Commercial Department he has been unusually successful, and many cadets have received from him very tactful and efficient instruction that will be of great value to them as business-men in their future lives. He also holds the position of school Quartermaster and has very efficiently kept the cadets supplied with all they need. Major Suhre is a great lover of baseball, and after all his years here, he still thinks that the Cardinals are the best. Major H. E. Suhre Captain W. J. Buck Twenty-seven
