The first official acts of the board were to select Harry Marsh, William Patrick and Thomas F. Magill for school examiners of the district; and to ascertain the amount of money to which the school was entitled. Upon inquiry of the committee it was found eight hundred dollars would be due the district from all sources on January 1, 1850. A committee appointed to ascertain the amount necessary to the maintenance of the schools for the ensuing year, reported four thousand dollars as the minimum at which it could be done. The qualified voters were again summoned, this time to authorize the board of directors to borrow four thousand dollars. Fifty- seven freeholders came, and out of the number only three objected to the proposed expenditure. The gravest of the school problems now was the

lack of buildings. Schools were scattered over the town in unseemly places, and under unhygienic conditions. Since the old academy alone seemed worthy for school purposes, this property was bought from L. G. Barker for one thousand seven hundred and twenty-five dollars in the summer of 1849. In the fall of the same year an addition equal to the original build- ing was erected in the face of a strong opposition and a lengthy petition against the project. Under the sanction of the new law, a superintendent was chosen. The board elected John Mckinney at a salary of six hundred dollars, payable quarterly, and the public-school system was started in Urbana, October 2, 1849. The teachers and their respective monthly salaries are given as follows: W. D. Henkle, $30; Marie Payne, $15: Jane Payne, $15; Sarah Mckinney, $15; Harriet Hoyt, $15; A. M. Downs, $15; Mary Hughes, $15; Harry Marsh, $41.66.
BEGINNING OF THE HIGH SCHOOL.
During the early fifties much of the work of the reorganization of the schools took place. The schools were graded, both sexes were admitted to the same room, higher branches were demanded, and the beginning of a high school made. The first special mention of the term "high school" is found in the records of July 1, 1852, when by a resolution, A. C. Deuel and S. V. Baldwin were appointed to procure a female teacher for the high school. Mrs. E. M. Haven of Washington, D. C., was elected on the recom- mendation of the committee.
When the academy became crowded, the high school was moved to the second floor of the market house. Under these new conditions the high school flourished, and when Abijah Baker was principal in 1857 it had an enrollment of thirty pupils. Baker was succeeded by G. W. Hiland in 1860, and the latter, by Thomas D. Crow in 1864. In addition to his high- school duties Crow was acting superintendent. The high-school course of study then included English grammar, United States history, algebra, geography, natural philosophy, French, German and Latin. The enroll- ment in the high school for that year was fifty-two and in the entire school. six hundred and eighty. Crow was followed by J. M. Cross as principal in 1865. E. D. Whitlock took charge of the high school in 1866; A. C. Crauch in 1869; and Clara Conklin in 1870.

CITY SCHOOL BUILDING.
In 1863 the school enrollment had grown to such proportions that the old buildings were entirely inadequate for their accommodation. Public sentiment, too, had grown very favorable to free schools; and in conse- quence taxpayers were enthusiastic in favor of providing for proper build- ings and maintenance, in spite of the burdens of war times. In 1864 it was voted that notes be issued for the erection in the city of three brick buildings of four rooms each. These buildings were known as the North School, the Southwest School and the Central School. They were built at a cost of twelve thousand five hundred dollars. These buildings were ready for occupancy in the fall of 1865, with the following principals in charge : Mr. Sampson, in the North building Mr. Stonebreaker, in the Central, and Mr. Smith in the Southwest. In 1869 the old academy was condemned as being unsafe for school purposes, and the structure was torn down. To take its place two temporary frame buildings were erected for the high school on the site of the present Central ward building. These quarters were occupied by the high school until 1875.
In 1874 a modern brick structure of three stories was built for the high school in the northeast part of town in what was then known as the Ryan woods at the cost of sixty thousand dollars. This building was dedicated on October 16, 1874, and school was begun in it the following year. Clara Conklin was principal of the high school at that time. The course of study was made up on the following studies: Algebra, geometry, United States history, general history, trigonometry, natural philosophy, chemistry, Latin, French and composition. The high school proper had an attendance of sixty-three. After the erection of this modern building, the town was well provided with school facilities. Soon, however, provision had to be made for the colored pupils, and the Ross property on Water street was pur- chased for sixty-five hundred dollars for this purpose. This school was abandoned in 1894 and the property was sold.
The high-school building erected in 1874 was destroyed in December, 1896, by fire. Before the walls had completely cooled, provision was made for accommodating the pupils, and two years afterward a magnificent new building was opened to the public.
A new ward building was finished in 1890 at the Central district, supplanting the one erected in 1864. In 1899, the Southwest district build- ing was abandoned, and a modern school building of eight rooms opened

on South Main street. In 1900 the building in the North district was torn down, and in 1901 a new ward school was opened in its place on Russell street.
A tabulated list of the cost of the school buildings and sites, and dates of erection follow : Old academy, $1,725, 1849; three ward schools, $12.500, 1864; temporary high-school building on present Central ward lot, $3,000; Water street school, $6,500, 1873; high school and grounds, $72,000, 1874; Central ward, $23,000; 1889; South ward, $20,000, 1898; present high school, $20,000, 1898; North ward, $20,000, 1900.
SALARIES.
In 1849 the position of superintendent paid $600; male teachers in the upper grades, $40; primary teachers, $15. The number of teachers for that year, ten. By 1860, the salary of the superintendent had been increased to $1,000; high-school principal, $600; ward principals, $700; primary teach- ers, $360; number of teachers, fourteen. In 1880, the superintendent's salary was fixed at $1,800; high-school principal, $1,000; ward principals, $700; primary teachers, $400; writing teacher, $750. Number of teachers, eighteen.
From the time of the organization of the Urbana schools, the practice of employing male teachers as ward principals is very noticeable. Appar- ently this has had much to do with the spirit and practical training of the youth. In this connection should be mentioned the names of B. F. Ogden, L. G. Barker, A. Baker, S. P. Price, R. S. Pearce, John W. Crowl, E. B. Kiser and A. C. Deuel. Equally deserving of praise are Mrs. Havens, Miss Chamberlain, Miss Conklin, Miss Keller, Miss Hoit, Miss Furrow, Miss Armstrong, Miss Arnold, pioneers in public-school work.
SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENTS.
The early and continuous success of the public schools in Urbana is in a large degree due to one man, the late A. C. Deuel. He was born in New York. When a young man he came to Champaign county and became a district school teacher. In 1850 he was elected as the successor of Harry Marsh, at a salary of twenty-five dollars a month. In June of that same year his salary was increased in consideration of the real value of his service and the advancement of his pupils. In July, 1851, he was elected to suc- ceed John McKinney, and started into a professional career which, in point

of service, was equalled by few men of his time. In 1864 he quit the work temporarily to assume the duties of provost marshal; in 1866, through some hasty action of the board, he was dismissed and the same year was re-elected; in 1868 he was succeeded by J. M. Cross who served one year and then resigned the position to E. C. McClintock, who held it until June, 1870. At that time the board re-employed Mr. Deuel at an advanced salary. Not only did the city schools prosper under his direction, but also the educational work of the county and the country in general was furthered. For thirty- two years he was school examiner and during this long period of service he had a keen eye for the meritorious teacher. He took up the work in normal schools, begun in the forties by Mr. Kirk, and later organized teachers' institutes, teachers' local meetings, and reading circles. He was at one time a member of the board of trustees of the Ohio State University, and had it not been for the lack of proper support on the part of his fellow citizens, the university would now be but a few minutes ride outside the corporate limits of Urbana. As superintendent of the city schools, he was last con- cerned with the planning of the Central ward building. In this he was disappointed, because the city failed to provide a suitable auditorium.
In 1890, Deuel was succeeded by William McK. Vance, who, as high- school principal, had been connected with the school for four years. Vance resigned the position in 1901 and was succeeded by I. N. Keyser, the pres- ent incumbent. Like his predecessor, he was high school principal five or six years prior to his election to the superintendency. During the admin- istration of Superintendent Keyser, many improvements have been made in the school system, all of which have tended to place the city schools among the best in the state. Mr. Keyser has always been assisted by a loyal and able corps of assistants, who have striven to co-operate with him in achiev- ing the improvements to be accomplished.
