of introducing new and further advanced

Through his efforts and solicitation an
adequate heating and ventilating plant
costing $4,000 has been installed, new
high school building to cost $500 to
$4,000 is now assured, and the school

strengthened by virtue of Mr.. Ritchie's
conscientious and tireless work. In the

PROF. A. P. RICHIE.
City superintendent of Schools and Widely
Known Educator.

Minnesota is known throughout the land
for the large number of educators who
are to be found within her borders, and
among those eminent in this field is Prof.
A. P. Richie, superintendent of the city
schools of Bemidji. Mr.. Richie is now
serving his fifth year as the head of our
schools, and that he is capable, intellec-
tual and an executive of no mean calibre
may be cleaned from the appended illus
tration of his rise to recognition in the
educational world.
Born on farm in the State of North
Carolina, Mr.. Richie at an early age was
brought to the State of Minnesota by his
parents, who settled in Wight County.
Flooding along as a farmer boy until he
had attained his majority, Mr.. Richie,
having mastered the three RS through
country school attendance, after fash
Guided to hew out a reputation in the
world of learning. Beginning as school
teacher, his ability as tutor soon at
tracted the attention of the school boards
within the vicinity, and he was proffered
the position of superintendent of schools
at Cokato, a post he filled for four years.
At the expiration of that time he was
called to Milaca, where he labored in the
same capacity for two years, at the ter
mination of which he was rendered the
SUPPLEMENTARY of Bemidji's schools, a
position which, as we have heretofore
stated, he has held for five consecutive
years, and one in which he can remain
for an indefinite time if he so desires.
Since his incumbency as superintendent
of Bemidjs schools, Mr.. Richie has not
only inaugurated new and up-to-date meth
DDS of training, but has been the means
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1909-03-27

another seat of learning to Bemidji. Prof.
Richie has also been the means of in
PRODUCING the Storms Business Course in
the high school curriculum, training
invaluable to qualified students, and econ
omical in cost as we'll as valuable Next
year Prof. Richie proposes to establish a
manual training school, the which would
long since have been reality had con-
ditions been propituous.
Prof. Richie is one of those astute men
whose presence is impressive by reason
of both his strength of character and his
known achievements in the interests of
education. To indicate his executive and
impelling force as supervisor and director
of school affairs it is but necessary to re-
late that when he became superinten-
dent of Bemidji's schools, there were but
eleven girls and one boy in the High
school, Now there are 1913 pupils in daily
attendance. Quite showing, to say the
least, and one commendatory to the fore
sight and study of Prof. Richie relative
to cause and effect.
Again, the increase of pupils in all the
schools, graded and high, since Prof.
Ritchie's assumption of the reins, amounts
to 400. No further words need be add
ed. Increase in enrolment of schools,
while natural as it may be by virtue of
increase in population, cannot be main
tanned unless the proper influences and
methods of learning prevail, so it is plain
that Prof. Richie has, by his knowledge
of school children and curriculi, greatly
benefited both the city and the pupils of
the schools by the application of practical
teaching and tolerable conditions.
Competent educators constitute the
bulwark of our vicilization. They are to
be highly rated among the genius of the
nation. The Pioneer is free to confess
that it discerns in Prof Richie an exem-
plary and able educator man of ideal
precepts. and gentleman who can be
trusted to creditably dispose of any re-
sponsibility pertaining to education which
may be thrust upon him.
