Town and County


The subject of this sketch was born
in Warren county, Iowa, in 1878. He
received his education in the public
schools of Blue Springs and Wymore,
Nebraska. He was student in the
state normal school at Lincoln, Neb
and also of the Nebraska University
He is graduate of the state normal
school at Cheny, Wash. Mr.. Riste
taught school at Odell, Neb., and re-
moved to this state in 1899. He has
also taught at Medical Lake and Cheny,
Wash. He was principal OF the We
natchee school for two years, and this
year was employed by the school board
as superintendent OF the Wenatchee
schools, which embrace three primary
and grammar schools and high school
department.
Mr.. .Rste is comparatively young
man. He has made school work his
life study, and that he is making a sue
cess of it is indicated by his being en-
ployed for the third year by the Wenat-
chez board. He is Il strict disciplinari-
an but is very popular with the schol
ars of all the schools.
The writer was patron of his school
for two years and says what he knows
to be true.
II Mr.. Riste lives he will in due time
take rank with the ablest and most sue
cessful educators in the state. No bet
ter selection could possibly have been
made for superintendent of the common
schools of Chelan county. 1t will be
impossible for Mr.. Riste to make can
vass Of the county and become acquain-
ted with the voters as his time is all
taken up with school work, but the edi-
tor of the Echo unreservedly assures
every reader that no more worthy, cap
able and in every way proper man could
have been named for superintendent of
the public schools of this county than
Ernest Riste.
