Of the 2,354 men who have gone from Yakima County to serve the nation on land, on sea or in air, seventy-eight have answered the great call. Of those for whom the final "taps" has sounded, forty are from this city, while the others come from elsewhere in the county. They have died bravely on the field of battle, disappeared into those mists from which the only word to come ts

It would be but commonplace to enlarge upon the vital importance to any genuine American community of the instrumentalities of larger growth covered by the heading of this chapter. More vital than the production of wealth is the disposition to be made of it. Stock and grain and lumber and coal and fruit and irrigating canals are all well and good, essential, in fact, but what are they all for? Obviously they have no use except as ministering to life, and life calls for the social,"moral, intellectual, and esthetic agencies of which schools, churches, and social and cultural organizations are the expression.
Yakima, like other parts of the state and of the Northwest, has developed rapidly in the directions indicated. While in the nature of things a new com- munity must devote its earliest energies to reclaiming land, hewing forests, opening mines, laying out irrigating canals, importing new breeds of stock and improved varieties of grain-in short, the purely materialistic concerns-it is true that the active-minded, free-souled, and ambitious builders of our western communities quickly create the finer activities which teach the proper use of the material and so-called practical.
In this great creation of the refining and elevating factors of life, the western woman plays a leading part. She is an institution by herself, that western woman. Whether because in pioneer life there were less women than men, and hence their relative importance was increased, or that pioneer life, with all of its hardships, had the capacity to develop both the strength and the delicacy of feminine nature-it is undoubtedly true that the typical woman of a community like Yakima or Ellensburg, or the smaller places within these coun- ties, has acquired a power of initiative and leadership, an independence of thought and action and a disregard of shallow conventionalities, which, though perhaps somewhat shocking to the prudish conceptions of more stereotyped re- gions, constitute one of the great working facts of western life and of Ameri- can democracy. Hence it is not surprising that woman suffrage, prohibition, initiative, referendum, recall, and other great popular movements have had their birth in the West. The activities of women in schools and churches, as well as in all kinds of societies, social, literary and artistic, have a great field in our western towns. The men, too, deserve much credit, in that the while they are

HISTORY OF YAKIMA VALLEY
devoted to making the money (and in fact are not usually adapted to any other function) they are well content to let their women spend it. Possibly they can not help themselves, but it is true that the average western man takes pride and pleasure in seeing the judicious use of his money made by his wife and daugh- ters in beautifying the home and in promoting public movements. While the western man is strong on "business," he has a hulking sense of religious and esthetic inferiority in the face of a religious or social crisis, and willingly abdi- cates in favor of the prime minister ; viz., his wife or daughter.
All these general views and conditions have ample illustration in the fine social and community life of the regions covered by our present story. And now we shall endeavor to narrate in necessarily brief outline the essential facts in regard to the educational, religious and social life of Yakima.
SCHOOLS
Unlike Ellensburg, in which the State Normal is located, or Walla Walla, in which there are several private institutions of notable character, the educa- tional interest of Yakima is found almost entirely in the public schools, of the high school and grammar grades. The Catholics maintain, as they usually do in larger towns, an academy for girls and another for boys, both excellent in- stitutions, of which we shall write further. One private academy, Woodcock Academy, had a worthy and interesting history, but was absorbed by the public school system. To it, too, we shall devote later attention. There is a first-class business college, and some special schools. Aside from the schools just named, the entire educational forces of Yakima County work through the channel of the public schools.
In the office of the superintendent of Yakima County there is a book which may truly be called a historic relic of high value. It is the first record of the first superintendent, laying out the original school districts. George W. Parrish was that first superintendent. The following is his first entry : "I was appointed school superintendent by the county commissioners on the first Monday of February, 1868. I had no predecessor, consequently no records or precedents in the county by which to act. The settlements were few and far between. It became my duty to divide the county into school districts, which I did, making most of them large, contemplating their subdivision as the public welfare might require. The following is a statement of the boundaries and numbers of the several districts of Yakima County, W. T., to-wit :"
The first four districts were laid out on June 28, 1868. We quote further the language of the report in regard to those four districts.
District No. One is as follows :
"Application for its formation was made by Mr. F. M. Thorp. A notice of its boundaries was sent to him on the 28th day of June, 1868. It is bounded as follows: Commencing on Yakima River two miles south of the Third Stand- ard Parallel, thence due east to Columbia River, thence up said river to the Fourth Standard parallel line, thence west along said line to Range 20 east, thence due south to town 13 north on said range, thence due west to Yakima River, thence down said river to place of beginning.
456
HISTORY OF YAKIMA VALLEY
District No. Two:
By application notice was sent to Mr. Walter Lindsey on the 28th day of June, 1868. It is bounded: Commencing on Atahnam River at the crossing of the line between Ranges 17 and 18 east; thence north along said line to Natchez River; thence down said river to Yakima River; thence down said river to Athanam River : thence up Atahnam River to the place of beginning.
District No. Three:
Notice was sent to Mr. Joseph Bowzer on the 28th of June, 1868. It is bounded so as to include all that part of the county between Natchez and Atahnam rivers west of the line between Ranges 17 and 18.
District No. Four :
Notice for the creation of District No. 4 was sent to G. G. Taylor on June 28th, 1868. It begins at the mouth of the Natchez River ; thence up said river to the summit of the Cascade Mountains and along the range to the divide between Wenass and Umtanum creeks; thence to the Yakima River and down said river to place of beginning."
District No. 5 was formed later and notice of its formation sent to E. French on October 16, 1868. It included all the country north and east of Yakima River and south of District No. 1. Districts 6 and 7 were laid out soon after No. 5, with the intention of including the rest of the county. But they were not organized; and the numbers subsequently appeared with differ- ent boundaries. Hence we may regard the first five districts as the "charter dis- tricts" of Yakima County. As may be seen by an inspection of the map, Dis- trict No. 1 included a large part of Benton County, a considerable part of Kittitas, and the broken country east and northeast of Selah on the east side of the river. The only inhabited part of it at that time was the Moxee settlement, on account of which, in fact, it was established. No. 2 embraced the region between the Atahnum and Naches, thus covering the site of Yakima, Nob Hill, the Cowiche, Wide Hollow, and the chief part of the Atahnum country. The Sunnyside, Grandview, Zillah, Granger and allied regions came in No. 5.
The second superintendent was C. P. Cooke, one of the best educated and most honored of Yakima pioneers, who came to the Moxee in 1867, and in 1870 went to the Kittitas, settling ten miles north of Ellensburg. Mr. Cooke made many changes in the boundaries of the districts. In 1868 the number of pupils reported was as follows: No. 1, 15; No. 2, 31; No. 3, 24; No. 4, 23; No. 5, 23; total 116. In 1869 the number had increased to 130.
A list of the teachers receiving certificates, or "licenses." as they were then called, may be of much interest. As may be seen, the feminine element was not so marked in the pedagogical profession then as now. That list may be consid- ered the advance guard of Yakima teachers.
The list for 1869, 1870, 1871 and 1872, was this: Philip Long, Mrs. Martha H .Mattoon, James Bland, Libranis Maxon, Joseph O. Clark, J. P. Marks, G. W. Parrish, O. Williams, J. R. Filkin, I. W. Hambleton, N. H. Clayton, Miss Letitia Wakker, Mrs. I. L. Lewis, Mr. Frisbee, Mrs. M. J. Benton, Miss M. O'Neil, Mr. Mead, Wm. N. Goff, Mr. E. B. Lewis, Mrs. S. L. Simpson, J. W. Masters, P. Kelly, R. M. Beck, J. R. Schnebly, G. W. Pratt, James Beck, Thomas Vaughn.
457
HISTORY OF YAKIMA VALLEY
The amount of school tax in 1867 was zero; in 1868, $275.64; in 1869, $404.76. In 1874, the amount had risen to $1,408.46, while in 1875 it was $1,653.06. From the report of Superintendent Parrish in 1868 it appears that there were no school buildings or libraries.
It must be remembered that the figures just given are for the entire area embracing the three present counties. They certainly make a remarkable com- parison with the statistics of 1917 and 1918, a half century later. We shall, of course, give those at greater length, but we give here simply for comparison, the census of 1917 which included 13,567 boys and girls in sixty-one districts. Thir- ty-six districts maintained more than one department. The number of teachers was 386, and the total expenses were $451,895.27. That was for Yakima County alone. The addition of Kittitas and Benton would add fifty per cent. or more to those figures.
The first school in the Yakima Valley, according to Leonard Thorp, to whom we have referred often as an authority, was a private school for the chil - dren of F. M. Thorp at his place in the Moxee. The teacher was Mrs. Letitia Flett Haines, a well-educated young woman from a prominent pioneer family of western Oregon. Her husband was one of the first incomers after the Thorps. They had a little girl, who with the Thorp children constituted the en- tire juvenile population of the Yakima country. According to Mr. Thorp's remembrence the first teacher in a public school was Martha Beck. The loca- tion was midway between Yakima City and the site of the later North Yakima. That must have been in 1868. Doctor Clark was the next teacher.
It would not be possible to enumerate the builders who contributed year by year to the development of the system of schools as they have come to be. One of the most often referred to by those who were reared in Yakima was Mrs. Ella Parker Stair. Not only a capable and popular teacher, but a brilliant woman, a leader in all social and philanthropic, as well as educational activities, Mrs. Stair left an influence and a name which is cherished by hundreds of the present mature generation of Yakima. She was born in Nebraska and at the age of twenty was married to David Stair. Mr. Stair was a lawyer, and in 1877 went with his young wife to Yakima where he entered upon the work of his profession. But like many other professional and business men he became enamoured of the outdoor life of the fruit rancher and established a ranch on the Ahtanum. He died in 1896. Mrs. Stair became county superintendent in 1884. She was a teacher in the county schools and then became principal of the high school, which position she held for a number of years.
D. C. Reed was identified for a number of years with the schools of the county and city, and may justly be named as one of the most constant and effective of the builders. One of the honored educators of the valley, though not a teacher in Yakima, was B. F. Barge, first principal of the State Normal School at Ellensburg. In 1894 Professor Barge resigned his position in the Normal, after three years' service, and took up his home at Yakima. There he engaged in land development and became one of the early promoters of large- scale irrigation enterprises. All the time, however, he was an active force in educational lines. He was a member of the school board for a number of terms and a constant leader in educational improvement.
458
HISTORY OF YAKIMA VALLEY
As a general view of the Yakima schools at a date intermediate between the beginnings and the present we may describe them as they existed in 1902.
At that time there were three brick buildings. In one the high school was domiciled, and this was located on North Third Street between D and E. An- other was the Central School on South Second Street between Walnut and Spruce. The Columbia was the third school building, on North Kittitas Avenue between B and C. There was also what was known as the Lincoln Annex, part of the high school. There was still another northwest of town known as the Fairview. At that date the school board consisted of Prof. B. F. Barge as chairman ; Ralph R. Nichols; Miles Cannon; and Robert S. Hough, as clerk. The high school faculty consisted of Mrs. Ella Stair, principal; L. M. Seroggs, Eva May, Berdina Hole, Grace Shannon, Kate Mckinney, Elizabeth Prior and Albertina Rodman. The principal of the Central School was A. W. Schwartz, assisted by Clara E. Bullan, Beulah E. Gilman, Maude L. Patterson, Charlotte Lum, Anna Jungst, Minnie Larsen and Carrie Young. Lulu Meeds was prin- cipal of the Columbia School, and her teachers were Bessie Aumiller, Bessie Ballinger, Avanelle Gans, Ethel Burns, Mrs. Edna Miller, Jennie Sherwood, Mary Young and Lois Whittle. In the Lincoln Annex, Mrs. Ella Needham, Ella Howland and Berdie Moore were the teachers. In the Fairview, Florence McWain was the teacher.
Turning from those views of the schools at the beginning and the middle of their history we may now present the present-day statistics. Through the kindness of Mrs. Anna R. Nichols, county superintendent, we are able to pre- sent these figures upon the present-day conditions for the county.
