structure in which for several years only one teacher was employed. The present four-room building was erected in 1892, and upon its completion four teachers were engaged. The principals since 1892 were Andrew Schneider, Paul Ahles, Andrew H. Kessler, Henry Krinbring, Thomas Cough- erty, Felix Payant, Peter Ahles, Susan Auer, Eleanor Bauer, Rosalie Weisser and Peter M. Weyrens. The school was placed on the state graded school list in 1903 dur- ing the principalship of Mr. Krinbring, and so continued until 1910 when on account of lack of pupils, it could no longer main- tain its standard. In 1909 a large parochial school was built, which caused a great falling off in attendance. Assistant teach- ers employed in the Albany village school were Lena Marschall, Rose Geisel, George Garreis, Mary Schwinghammer, John Krause, Bertha Linnemann, Carrie Walz, John A. Maus, Peter P. Molitor, Mary

Pratschner, Theresia Bieble, Tillie Schwartz, Bertha Pallansch, Catherine Doyle, Angelia Schroeder, Beatrice C. Wolfe, Cecilia Fitzgerald, Susan Auer, Theresia Bauer, Olive Dailey, Mayme Pal- lansch and Catherine Murphy.

District Number 111, as already indi- cated in the foregoing, was organized April 29, 1878. Its history is closely re- lated to that of District Number 59, in fact both districts claim the criginal Ober- miller school as their own. However, since the school was moved from the cross- roads near Albany to its present location, it has become known as the Heinen school, though an occasional old settler calls it by its former name. The district is con- templating the erection of a new school- house, since the present structure no longer meets the state requirements, al- though properly equipped in every other direction. Some of the teachers employed in this school were Peter Stadtherr, Aga- tha Roeder, N. J. Harren, Leo Bauer, Mar- tin J. Schmitt, Emily Schneider, Jennie Tischleder, M. G. Weyrens and Theresa Bauer.

District Number 143, whose schoolhouse is situated about three miles west of Al- bany, was organized in 1889. John Plemel Sr., John Dirkies Sr., and Herman Jackel were the first officers. Peter Danzl was the first teacher. Since his time the fol- lowing teachers have been engaged in this

school; Henry F. Meyer, Michael Weyrens, Annie Christen, Katie Wimmer, Peter Ehresmann, George Garreis, John Schwing- hammer, Karl Rettenmaier, John Fink, Ja- cob L. Hohmann, Barney Eshpeter, Henry Briol, Max Grave and Joseph Fahnhorst. . Louis Dirkies, a prominent attorney; Ed- ward Schmid, Anna Eschpeter and Magda- lena Eschpeter, teachers, attended this school. In the year 1901 a dwelling house was erected for the use of the teacher.

District Number 179, the Fruth school three miles southwest of Albany, was or- ganized in 1898. George Fruth was the first director; S. P. Wimmer, clerk, and Joseph Meier, treasurer. Josephine Wim- mer, now Mrs. William Bidmann of Two Inlets, Minn., was the first teacher. Her enrollment was thirty pupils. The teach- ers who followed her were Fred Christen, Mary Schwinghammer, Alvina Besemann (now Mrs. Albert Strobel of St. Cloud) Elinor Pallansch and Emily Schneider ..

District Number 178, northeast of Al- bany, was organized in 1898. Math Gretsch, Joseph Friedl and Michael Kon- sak were the first school officers. Miss Hedwig Himsl, now Mrs. J. P. Goetten of St. Cloud, was the first teacher. Other teachers were Norbert Schneider, Sophia Christen, William Schneider, Evaline Mes- serschmitt, Hannah Batz, Anna Berle, Rose Dicks, Emily Schneider and Isabel Krebs.

District Number 148, for many years known as the Weivoda district, but re- cently renamed the Woodland school, was organized in 1891 with Peter George di- rector; Andrew Malley, treasurer, and Ru- dolph Stich, clerk. Aloys Schwingham- mer, now of Bruno, Saskatchewan, Can- ada, was the first teacher. He was fol- lowed by Peter Weber, Conrad A. Mar- schall, Jacob L. Koll, Peter G. Ehresmann, Nicholas Young, Michael George, Lizzie Rosenberger, Sophia Kranz, John Kraus, Mary Roesch, Lizzie Eich, Theodore Schulte, Anna Karels, Anna Adrian, Mayme Pallansch, Laura Eich, Anna Luckeroth, Elizabeth Just, Celia Ham- merl, Katherine Wilwerding and Kather- ine Johannes.

Brockway Township .- The first school in the township of Brockway was taught by Irene Carrick of Elk River in 1859. This was a private school, conducted in

the house of Winslow Getchell. This was within the confines of what, since 1857, was designated District Number 7 and is now known as the Perry school (also the Riverside school). Since neither funds nor public buildings were available, re- course was had to private instruction, a small tuition being charged. The present schoolhouse was built in 1861 and the first teacher was a Mr. Sabbath who was em- ployed for a three months' term. Unfortu- nately the records for a number of years were lost or destroyed. The first school board consisted of George W. Day, John Hayward and Winslow Getchell. The sec- ond year a term of four months was taught, and for the next nine years six months was the regular length of term. There- after, until 1913, the term was held at seven months, and in 1913 it was increased to eight. In that year the schoolhouse was much improved by an addition and a com- plete interior equipment.

District Number 8, whose building is sit- uated about three miles north of the Perry school and which is locally known as the Crosby school, was organized in 1867. E. J. Smart, C. M. Hiscock and H. B. Smart were the first school officers. The first school was taught by Julietta Hicks in the farm house of Reuben Crosby, about half a mile south of the present schoolhouse. Twenty pupils were enrolled. Other teach- ers employed were Agnes Russell, Electa Holding, Susan Popple, James B. Bonham, Janet Russell, Anna C. Kelley, Etta Clif- ford, Lydia Pedley, Belle Tuttle, Alda Everette, Olive Leavitt, Grace Wilson, May Leavitt, Lulu Bonham, Emma R. Smart, Lottie Brown, Alice Bowen, Jennie E. Campbell, Mary E. Hiscock, Nellie Wake- field, Margaret Miller, Mary Moulin, Ger- trude Gilman, Miriam A. Smart, Mary V. Collar, Nellie Dayton, J. F. Smart, Lillian Kenyon, Cora Rucker, Mary E. Bell, Lucy M. Lisle, Agnes A .. Flint, Hester J. Caughey, Jennie A. Smart, Josephine John- son, Eva Caughey, Bessie Parks, Mamie Lisle, Gertrude Flint, Bertha Lausted, Evangeline Carpenter, Etta Whan, Grace Burt, Martha Hurley, Mae Koch, Alma B. Gordon and Alma Caughey.

District Number 12, known as the Ross school and situated one mile east of Opole, was organized in 1869 with Joseph Patrick, director; George Healy, clerk, and Wil-

liam Ross, treasurer. The first school was taught in a log building, just across the road north of the present location, by An- nie Parnett. There were thirty-five pupils enrolled. Among the teachers who fol- lowed Miss Parnett were John Pleasant, Angus Kennedy, Joseph Meyers, John Schultheis, D. J. McIsaacs, Minnie Perlow- ski, Rose Courtney and Mary Richards. Charles M. Weber, later county superin- tendent of schools, taught in this district for a number of years. R. F. Ross, at pres- ent superintendent of Cass County, Minne- sota, attended this school when a boy, his father being the first treasurer of the dis- trict.

District Number 4, the Brick school, in the southwestern part of the township, was organized in 1874. The first school offi- cers were Angus Kennedy, John Murphy and Timothy McCarthy. Thomas Mc- Cauley was the first teacher, ten pupils attending. School was first taught in an old log building half a mile west of the present location. This building is still in a good state of preservation, although the variety of uses to which it has been put in later years have wrought some changes in its original appearance. At the present time it serves as a combination of barn and tinker's shop, a sort of emergency hos- pital where plows and reapers and carts that have fallen victims to minor accidents may be given temporary relief. Since the organization of the district the enrollment has steadily increased, numbering at the present time 64 pupils. The old log build- ing soon proved too small, and a brick building was erected in its place. In this the pupils now find themselves in rather close quarters, and the erection of a new schoolhouse will be given earnest consid- eration in the near future. After Mr. Mc- Cauley the following teachers were em- ployed: Alex McGinnis, William Martin, Lizzie Collins, Agnes Stack, William Stack, Rosella Randolph, Richard Mahoney, James L. Barrett, Margaret Mckay, Irene Reed, Anna McNulty, Hattie Lavette, Alice Morris, Sarah Twomey, Margaret Coyne, Margaret Twomey, Emma Kennedy, Alex Stuart, Winnifred Connelly, Mary McAr- thur, Margaret Welsh, Marie Heid, Sarah Ryan and Leona Lovell.

District Number 86, variously known as the Guck school, the Kieffer school, the

Peternell school, and more recently chris- tened the Roosevelt school, was organized in 1874, with Andrew Then, John Knettle and Paul Blenkush the officers. Joseph Thiers was the first teacher. He taught in a log building about ten rods southwest of the present school. This has since en- tirely disappeared. Among the pupils who attended this school and later attained prominence were the Rev. M. Omann, Mathew E. Omann, principal of the Car- ver schools, and Andrew Peternell, cashier of the Albany state bank. Other teachers employed in this district were John Goetz, Charles M .. Weber, Valentine Ruff, August Richter, Frank Brinkmann, John Richter, Laura I. Friburk, Lena Karels, Blonda Smith, Margaret Raykowski, Bernard Win- kelmann, Jennie Lacher, Rose Schmidt, Sophia Kranz and Helen Katzmarek.

District Number 130, the school at St. Stephen, was organized in 1887. The first school officers were Gregory Peternell, Martin Legat and Anton Kapser. John Gates, who had an enrollment of about twenty pupils, was the first teacher. Since then the number of pupils has so steadily increased that the present quarters have become much too small. At the last an- nual meeting bonds were voted for the erection of a modern two-room school- building. It will cost about $5,000. The teachers who followed Mr. Gates were Math Bilbon, Math Justin, Frank Bernick, Anna Keppers, John Heim, Lena Bernick, Laura I. Friburk, Anna Mensinger, Kitty Quinn, Mathew E. Omann, Mary Trzewik, Margaret Kosel, Rose Quinn, Rose Farrell, Mary Tschumperlin, Joseph Eversmann, Marie Gleason, James L. Barrett and Nor- bert Schneider.

District Number 121, whose building is the most northeasterly in the county, was organized in 1881. The officers were Mr. Adams, Mr. Richardson and Samuel Lam- bert. Elizabeth Adams was the first teacher, giving instruction to a small num- ber of children in a private house about half a mile north of the present school site. Other teachers employed were John Mrosha, Mary Smart, Lucy Overton, Tracy Seifert, Lizzie Bonham, Jennie Smart, George Garrison, Nettie McNeal, Mary Edelwein, Sophia Hagemann, Elizabeth Mund, Josephine Johnson, Arthur Morgan, Grace Lambert, Eva E. Caughey, Eliza-

Morrill, Maggie Twomey, Minnie Hedlund, Martha Staples, Gertrude Flint, Anna Grunewald, Gertrude Kloepper, Lucinda Gregory, Clara McNeal, Carrie Gaumnitz, Marie Walker, Effie Wolhart, Eva Carey, Alice Barrie, Charlotte E. Wilkes, Katherine Meagher, Helen Katzmarek and Hilda Larson.

District Number 195, known as the Opole school, was organized in 1902. Michael Sowada, Stanley Kuklok, and John Pien- tok were the officers. The first teacher was Mathew E. Omann, who had an en- rollment of about sixty pupils. Other teachers were Celia Roble, Peter Mohs, Mary McArthur, J. B. Svienty, Anna Stew- ard, Bertha Winkler, Mary Grant, Nora Donohue and Erma Kiley.

Collegeville Township .- Owing to the very hilly and rugged surface of this town- ship, Collegeville is at the present time the most sparsely settled region in the entire county. It has only three schools, though it is very probable that a fourth district will soon be established in the center of the township. At the present writing the schools are located in the ex- treme corners, with District Number 132 in the southeast corner of Farming town- ship serving the people in the southwest- ern part of Collegeville. The first institu- tion of learning established in the town- ship of Collegeville was St. John's Univer- sity, of which a comprehensive sketch ap- pears in another part of this history. How- ever, its presence drew about it many farmers, and in 1875 District Number 120 was organized. School was first taught in a little log building which stood about three-quarters of a mile northwest of St. John's University. Sister Candida, of the Order of St. Benedict, was the first teacher. The first school officers were Peter Rau, Peter Eich and John Obermiller. The little log building continued in use until 1890 when the school site was changed after a very spirited election. A new frame structure was then erected on an old mill site, about half a mile east, where it stood for five years. It was completely destroyed by the cyclone which swept over the central part of the county in 1895. A new site southwest of the University was then selected (see history of District Num- ber 175, Avon township) and since that time the little schoolhouse has been stand-

ing in the very shadow of one of the great- est institutions of learning in the North- west. Sister Candida taught several terms, and was followed by others of her Order. Other teachers employed were Miss Frankie, Miss Seifert, Simon Blum, John Harren, Conrad Marschall, J. M. Gillitzer, George Meyer, Sebastian DeGross, Anna Marschall and Lena Hockert.

District Number 144, variously known as the Scherer school and the Eisenschenk school, was organized in 1889. The offi- cers were Nicholas Keller, Andrew Klein and John Klocker. Simon Blum was the first teacher, being his own successor for a number of terms. He had nineteen pu- pils enrolled. Other teachers were Pauline Geiger, Jacob Doetzel, Anton LeMiller, Clara Streitz, George J. Guggenberger, Elinor Theisen and Ida Backes.

District Number 140, known as the Fan- del school, about four miles southwest of Avon, was organized in 1898. John Black was the first clerk, Nicholas Fandel, di- rector and Theodore Ritter, treasurer. Nicholas Neeser was the first teacher, be- ing followed by John Eich, John Mutch- lechner, John Schwinghammer, Lena Christen, Kate Christen, Michael George, Mary Eich, Mary Kattermann, Ben J. Keppers, Frances Backes, Joseph Theisen, John Spoden, Edward Schmidt, Lucy Hingsberger and Louise Lahr.

Crow Lake Township. The first school in Crow Lake township was taught in 1870 by Julia Nelson, now Mrs. Michael Olson of Colfax, Kandiyohi county. The school house stood on the southeast cor- ner of Section 15, two miles west of the present village of Belgrade. This was in District Number 76. The first school of- ficers were F. A. Swenson, Even Hendrick- son and Frank McMine. When the Bel- grade village district was organized the school was moved half a mile farther west. Some of the teachers were Selin Daniels, Charlotte Pelvison, Delia Horne, Ina Platts, Florence Phipps, Rena E. Hal- vorson, Archie W. Kirk, Bessie Skimland, Ella Madson, Clara Tollefson, Nettie Bright, Hilda Carlson, Ethel J. Anderson and Cora Troelstrup.

District Number 96, the most south- westerly in the county, was organized in 1890 with Martin Madson, Hans Olson and Horatio Geer as officers. Mrs. Etta Miller

1365

HISTORY OF STEARNS COUNTY

was the first teacher, fifteen pupils at- tending. Other teachers employed were Maggie Nugent, Nellie Brown, Annie Ship- stead, Lillian Reiquam, Dora Madson, Henry Shipstead, Thea Reiquam, Clara Torkulson, Lily Knutson, Lena Hendrick- son, Gertie Olson, Jennie Olson, Alma Huseth and Julia Swenson. Dora Madson, who attended this school when a little girl and was later employed to teach it, is now principal of one of the buildings in Two Harbors, this state. Ella Madson, a sister, later employed in the Belgrade vil- lage school, also attended the school in District Number 96. Harold Imsdahl, cashier of the State Bank of Brooton, was also a pupil here before taking a course in business instruction.

District Number 158, one of the six in the county that are regular in shape (being a perfect parallelogram), lies directly east of Number 96. The school is snugly hid- den in a dense grove hard upon the high- way, and a person coming along the road is unaware of its presence until, at a slight turn, he comes upon a long sign- board inscribed "Please slow down; school playgrounds one hundred feet distant." This injunction became necessary because of the speed with which chauffeurs would drive their automobiles past the school grounds, frequently endangering the lives of the children there at play. Margaret Nugent was the first teacher, and was fol- lowed by Oscar B. Olson, Annie S. Ander- son, Lydia Jermuson, Emma R. Lyse, Edna Geer, May M. Morgan, F. R. McGladrey, Grace Frazier, Lottie Bey, Ella M. Madson, Jennie Olson, Emma Larson, Christine Knutson, Lena Pletschett, and Bernard Olson.

District Number 124, the Forest school, about three miles southeast of Brooten, was one of the early schools in that sec- tion. Thomas Kjeldahl

was the first teacher, being followed by Lydia Jermund- son, Martha Torculson, Agnes Mitchell, Gertrude Mitchell, Lilly Knutson, Mamie Gannon, Sadie Westover, Lillian Kieffer, Evelyn Evans and Myrtle Ferdinantsen.

Crow River Township. The first school in the township of Crow River was taught in the winter of 1870 by Emma Morgan. This was within the present confines of District Number 75, lying to the south- east of the village of Belgrade. For the

first term no school house had been pro- vided. However, C. H. Johnson offered the use of his dwelling house, and for three months a number of children gathered there, the enrollment being 35 pupils. As soon as possible a log school house was erected on Section 30, and for a number of years school was taught in this build- ing. Later a new site was chosen whereon a suitable frame building was erected. The first school meeting in this district on rec- ord was held on October 7, 1871. Until then C. H. Johnson had served as clerk and Peter Knudson as treasurer, together with a director whose name is now un- known. At the meeting in 1871 Daniel Pederson was chosen director, W. B. Reed, clerk, and Peter Knudson treasurer. The teachers who followed Miss Morgan were Kate Wright, Sophrona Lovelace, Mary Knowles, Joachim Wahlseth, Ada B. Mer- rill, Ella Wakefield, Susan Bucan, Bertha O. Glesne, Mary Riley, Kate Meagher, Jacob Wahlen, A. H. Hendrickson, Emil A. Peterson, Cora Sunderland, J. B. Locke, T. E. Lynch, Cora Carter, John Erdahl, T. J. Flahaven, Hannah Meagher, Jeanette Thorpe, Margaret Meagher, Gilbert Oppen, Emma R. Syse, Bella Solseth, Johanna Newgard, Nellie White, Ella Madson, Emma Wangen, Christine A. Knudson and Gunda Johnson.

District Number 123 was organized in 1882, with Rasmus Danielson, director; Ole Danielson, clerk, and John Hendrick- son, treasurer. Anne B. Nielson, now liv- ing in the state of Washington, was the first teacher. She had an enrollment of twenty pupils, who received instruction in the present school building, occupying a location on the east bank of the Crow river, which circumstance gave it the name "Riverside School." Other teachers employed were Jessie F. Miner, Emma Peters, Hattie Martin, John B. Locke, T. J. Flahaven, T. E. Lynch, Maggie Nugent, John Erdahl, Amelia Minde, John O'Keefe, Albert Syse, Louise Larson, Hannah Enge- bretson, Ella Johnson, Lena V. Miller and Clara Romness.

District Number 122, which adjourns the Belgrade district on the northeast, was or- ganized in 1881. Gust Grandstran was elected clerk; John Helgeson, director, and John Peterson, treasurer. Hannah Meagher was the first teacher. She later

1366

entered a convent and died as a sister of a well known religious order. Her suc- cessors were Maggie Meagher, Mary Riley, Mary Peters, M. N. Phlepsen, Peter J. Pohl, Edward Rosenberger, Mary Sonder- mann, James Sanders, C. W. Lentz, Joseph Krebsbach, Martha Torculson, Anna Reuther, Lydia Jermundson, Miss Hurley, Mabel Skimland, Mary Reuther, Emma Larson and Jennie Olson. Of the pupils who attended this school John and Edward Linden have attained prominence. They are now editors and publishers of a widely-read Chicago weekly.

District Number 159, the Georgeville school, was organized in 1891. Thor An- derson was elected clerk, Christian Fred- erickson, director, and D. S. Christenson, treasurer. Ellen Lyse, who had an enroll- ment of thirty pupils, was the first teacher. She was paid a monthly salary of $25. Since then the enrollment has steadily in- creased, being at the present time over- fifty pupils. Other teachers who were en- gaged in this school were J. Erdahl, F. S. Thorgard, Marie Huselid, Amelia Minde, John O'Keefe, Katherine Cashman, Jennie Embertson, Margaret Murphy, Kate Branley, Josephine Larson, Edna Brown and Margaret P. Nelson.

District Number 141, the Belgrade vil- lage school, was organized in 1888. The first officers were J. A. Berg, Martin Hal- vorson and Almon Smith. In the twenty- six years of its existence this school has made splendid progress. It now boasts one of the finest buildings in the county, six teachers being employed and a high school department maintained. Some of the principals who have been at the head of this school are Andrew Jardine, W. J. McGladrey, C. H. Batson, J. F. Sandstrom and P. M. Atwood. Mr. Atwood, during whose principalship the new school was built, is now superintendent of schools at Tower, Minn. Some of the assistant teach- ers were Margaret Ladd, Sophia Sjoberg, Mary O. Laughlin, Cora Bucklin, Leila Backlund, Anna Reuther, Edna Peterson, Blanche Malchow, Emma L. Langley, Edna F. Lewis, Alice Kenevan, Esther Englund, Mary Adams, Lucia Maxson, Mrs. J. F. Sandstrom, Gussie Elesser, Mrs. Lil- lian English, Mildred Morgan, Ella Mad- son, Lena Luiten, Harry Nyquist, Winni- fred Richardson, Hilda Carlson, Margaret

Farris, Dagmar Christenson, Mabel Peter- son, Florence Davison, Adeline Koenig.

District Number 201, known as the Gus- tafson school, was organized in the spring of 1908 .. Thorston Knutson was the first clerk, Fred Parker, director, and William Gustafson, treasurer. Ida Ellingboe was the first teacher, twenty-five children at- tending. Other teachers were Lydia Jer- mundson, Ethel Anderson, Gertie B. Olson and Mary Larson.

Eden Lake Township. The history of the first school district organized in the township of Eden Lake is almost pathetic. District Number 19, in which the first school was taught, was organized in 1864. This was at one time one of the most pop- ulous schools in the county, whereas to- day it may be said to merely exist. The northern half of the township of Eden Lake had been exclusively settled by Ger- mans and it was they who were the first to provide a school for their children. In 1868, four years after the district was or- ganized, there were seventy-three pupils enrolled, all of whom were entitled to the state apportionment, which at that time was 77 cents for each child. This school continued to be one of large enrollment until 1899 and 1900 when two new districts, Numbers 182 and 189, were formed out of its territory. In 1896 there were still over seventy pupils enrolled, but during the last eight years not more than ten or twelve children have attended this school at one time. It is one of the twenty-two districts in the county which provides a cottage for the use of a teacher; how- ever, since the sudden decrease in area as well as in enrollment it has been impos- sible for the district to offer a sufficiently large salary to induce married men to ac- cept the position. The teacher's dwelling, standing somewhat apart from the school, is slowly going to ruin, having been un- tenanted for a number of years. The dis- trict is still five sections in extent, but as two-fifths of this is lake surface but a small land area is left to support the school. The first school officers were Nicholas Reder, director; Ernest Holifer, treasurer, and Bartholomew Pirz, clerk. Emilia Holifer was the first teacher. Dur- ing the first years instruction was given in a log building which stood about a mile west of the present location. The present

1367

school house was built in 1888. The teach- ers employed in this school were Emilia Holifer, Bartholomew Pirz, Katharina Mayer, Tobias Schleper, Theodore Muel- lenmeister, Caspar Klostermann, Joseph Heltemes, Jacob Bold, John Bold, Ignatius Broker, Henry Thyen, Joseph Bold, Wil- liam Bold, Peter Taufen, J. H. Weyrens, August Doerner, Peter Nohner, J. C. Diek- mann, B. Henry Knese, Hilda Schwartz, Katie Hilger, Regina Kaufmann, Mary Ganzer, Gertrude Ganzer, Clara Kost, Frances Friedmann and Mary Roettger.
