Teacher Elected

The trustees of the Buena Vista High school met Wednesday afternoon and 
unanimously elected Prof. J.F. Stewart, who had charge of the Butler Male and 
Female College for the past year, for the principal of this school for the 
ensuing year.

Prof. Stewart will come to Buena Vista highly recommended as a teacher and we 
feel sure that if the patrons do their part there will be no trouble in 
building up a good school of one hundred or more pupils in Buena Vista.

Heretofore some of the patrons of the school have been too dictatorial for the 
good of the school.  A teacher with talent and experience must pull the 
ribbons, so to speak, over his school if it is made a success.

Prof. James F. Stewart has been elected principal of the Buena Vista High 
School.  The citizens of Buena Vista and patrons of the school may well feel 
proud of their selection as Prof. Stewart is a competent teacher and will 
please his patrons. – Butler Herald

Opening of the Buena Vista High School

As will seen by an announcement elsewhere the fall term of the Buena Vista High 
School will open on Monday, 3rd day of September.

Prof. Stewart, the new principal of the school, comes to Buena Vista highly 
recommended as a thoroughly competent, energetic and progressive teacher, and 
if he can have the co-operation of the people of this town and section he will 
build up a school of which the patrons and the town will be proud.

There ought to be at least twenty-five or thirty boarding pupils, and if every 
family in the town will work to that point as they do at Barnesville that 
number can easily be had and more.  The Barnesville people take so much 
interest in their school that heads of families will even write personal 
letters and sent out soliciting boarding pupils.  It is necessary for us to 
present the benefit to be derived from a large number of boarding pupils.

Our people should not only be united on the school question but they should 
bring to bear every personal effort to make the school a great success, both as 
to members and otherwise.

Prof. Stewart will be ably assisted in the primary department by Miss Caldwell 
who is peculiarly fitted for training and teaching in that department.  Miss 
Lena Bateman, a graduate of Wesleyan, will have charge of the music department.

We hope and believe that Buena Vista will have a school to be proud of the 
coming scholastic year.
