Long actually succumbed to success
sion Of lengthy speeches. "The house

superintendent of
Public Instruction.

Mitchell, S. D. June 3.-Prof. M.
M. Ramer, principal ofthe city schools,
has been selected for appointment as
superintendent of public instruction,
to fill the vacancy caused by the reslg-
nation of Hon. George w. Nash, who
was appointed to the position OF pres.
ident of the Aberdeen State Normal
school. Prof. Ramer's appointment
will be made by Gov. ElrOd.
Prof. M. M. Ramer was born at Lew
iston, MINI. Feb. IL, 1869, and accom-
panied his parents to Tower City, N,
D. in 1880 He began his studies In
the common schools, and later took a
course in the Normal school at Moor
head, Minn., attending Baptist col
lege later, in North Dakota. He be-
gan his teaching career in the country
schools of Cass county, N. D., in 1883,
where he remained for five years. He
was then called to the schools of Big
Stone City, S. D., in 1893, and after
serving there q period of time he was
elected superintendent schools. Grant
county, which he held four years. the
limit under the law. From 1902 to 1904
he was the principal of the schools at
Milbank, where he made an unqualified
success of his work.
Last year he was secured by the board
of education of this city to accept the
principalship of the Mitchell schools,
and the year he has been here has de-
monstrated his great worth as an edu-
Gator, and he was re-engaged for the
ensuing year. In January he was
elected to the position of president OF
the South Dakota Educational assOci-
alton.
Prof. Ramer is what might be term
ed q self-educatedman. His schooling
days were necessarily limited, and his
attainments have been wrought out by
q steady application to his books dur
ing the long hours of night, devoting
himself assiduously in better fitting
himself for his work. He is vigorous
in his educational work. For all the
sacrifices he made in his younger days,
he said he found that it paid in the
long run to be faithful to q task.
Prof. Ramer stands high among the
ed lcators of the state for his thorough
ness in all his work, and for his splen.
did capabilities. His appointment 70
the position will bring satisfaction in
educational circles.
