HAT does it mean to attend a school in this country? Does it mean anytlling
different from attending school in European countries? It means something
,radically different. The sehool sy terns of most European countries have been
uJaintained to inculcate the prevailing national ideal.
In this country the school system has been the product 0.£ local communities and
has only permitted such state or national relationships as do not infringe upon local
support and local control. The schools of America are the product of democracy.
They are founded upon the doctrine of equal opportunity; they have encouraged
the development of the individual; they have sought to discover his special aptitudes
and capacities. They have not attempted to fit him for any highly specialized form
of state service, but on the other hand, they have attempted to instruct him in those
things which would be of service to him as a citizen and which would lay the basis
ior successful practice in every walk of life. Our school system has been characterized by the conception that it was training the c11ildren of this country for the great
adventure, the adventure 0.£ life, and that all those things which would serve to make
life better, more wholesome, the indi\'dual genuinely happier, and more efficient,
should be included in the program of instruction. Every school, the university, the
school of agriculture, the high school, the elementary school is maintained with this
fundamental purpose in mind. Democracy fosters and encourages education and in
turn has a right to expect that the graduates of its schools will feel a peculiar obligation to maintain and to strengthen tIle institutions of democracy.

P1'esident of the University of Minnesota.

~uprriutrullrut
USTIN A. DOWELL was born at Gaynor, Missouri, where he lived for three
years, and then moved to Bedford, Iowa with his parents, where they still
reside. Mr. Dowell worked his way through Iowa State College at Ames, graduating
in 1915 witJll the degree of Bachelor of Science. He was prominent in school activities, being a member of the college livestock judging teams, a coveted honor, and a
member of the Alpha Zeta Alpha, Phi Kappa Phi, and Delta Tau Delta, honorary
and academic fraternities. For two years he taught animal husbandry in the Short
Courses at Ames.
From 1918 to 1922, he was head of the Department of Animal Husbandry, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Canada. Here he developed new metllOds in breeding
and feeding livestock, thus gaining the confidence of farmers and livestock men. Because of [lis good work, :Mr. Dowell was selected by the Canadian Minister of Agriculture to study livestock conditions in the British Isles.
In August 1922, he resigned to join the Extension Division of the University of
Minnesota. While here he earned the degree of Master of Science during his spare
time. He originated tJhe Minnesota Carload Beef Contest, the first 0.£ its kind in
the United States, and which has attracted nationar interest in livestock circles.
ttL
Mr. Dowell is a man of great executive ability and of sound judgment. He is
thorough in his work, broadminded, a clear thinker and he respects the views of
others. He has outstanding qualities of leadership and character, and is in sympathy
with the pioneer of the land, all of which gives one a feeling of confidence in him.

\![: 0 operale a farm successfully requires di"er ity of ability. The farmer must
be a mechanic, scientist, laborer, and business man. There are at lea t three types
of activity in farming. such as crop production, farm management, and repair and
construction work. L'nder this last cla sification are included such jobs as tool
sharpening, building repair, rope splicing, belt lacing, blacksmithing, soldering,
painting, and work in drainage and concrete. A farmer mu t also understand gas
engines, tractors, and othel' farm equipment.
Our engineering courses such as Farm 1echanics, Farm :Motors, Carpentry,
Blacksmithing, and Farm Drawing, aim to leach the young men of the Red River
Valley these fundamental principals of farm operation.

~he courses in Home Economics arc so arranged as to give training in foods:
clothing, and home management. These courses provide a foundation for several
lines of work as well as .for home-making". Girls with Home Economics tl:aining
are given a preference in hospitals as Home Nursing, Physiology, and Public Health
are included in the curriculum. The field of Home Economics is growing rapidly,
and since good homes and healthy families are requirements for happiness and prosperity, Home Economics cannot be too greatly stressed.

jMusic at the Northwest School is important not only for its aesthetic value but
because of the natural and spontaneous enthusiasm among the students themselves.
There is opportunity .for natural talent to display itself in band, orchestra, chorus,
and glee clubs, and individually in piano, violin, or voice.
At many schools music has been raised to such a standard that it is considered as
great honor to be a member of the school chorus as it is to be a member of the football team. The Northwest School will soon be one of these if lhe interest and enthusiasm for music continue~ to grow as it has in the past.

CLASS HISTORY
As members of the advanced class, after realizing that our education was not
complete when we had finished the three-year course, we returned in the fall of '26
lmd again took up our duties as students at the X orthwest School. \Ve do not do
them from a sense of duty, but because our duties at this school hal'e become a daily
IJleasure. \~re enjoy going to classes because we hal'e become interested in our class"ork-thanks to our instructors.
Some of our members ha\'e planned to go on to college. Those who cannot enter
college realize tllat they are not through with their education when they get their
diplomas, but know that they have a good foundation to enter the school of experience.
The four years we hal'c spent here, ha I'C been the happiest of our lives. It has
been the bridging over from childhood into womanhood and manhood, and our life's
decisions hal'e been made during these four years, or will be shortly after their
completion.

CLASS HISTORY
With the aid of Mr. and Mrs. Pilkey as advisers, the class of '28 was re-organized
with Chester Torgerson as president.
The Junior Class takes an important part in all school activities such as athletics,
music, and literary societies. One of our J unio·rs, Teddy Carlson, is the president
of the Y. M. C. A.
This year our class had more members represented in Home Project work than
any other class. Elida Erickson won the Silver TropI]y. Others who won honorf.
were Esther Viker for the Sewing Project, Teddy Carlson Jar the Crop Project ,and
Harold Norseth for the Tractor Project. Two Juniors were on the grain judging
team which represented the school this year. They are George Berggren and Arthur
Sandal. Teddy Carlson was the alternate on this team.
A large number of the Junior boys were on the football squad last fall and Harry
Confer, George Berggren and Elmer vVardeberg received letters. The Class of '28
shows a great deal of interest in basketball also. The second team was largely made
up of Juniors. Our class team lead in class games played, and will be good material
for next year's first team.
One of our greatest aims is to make out motto, "Keep Smiling," represent the
spirit of the class.

CLASS HISTORY
The Class of '29 was assembled Odobel' 4, 1926; the larg-est class in the history
the Northwest School. As everything was ncw and strange to us, we greatly app)'eciated being assisted by the faculty and older students. Of course we could not
hope to achie"e wonders as Freshmcn. but we have won our share of the laurels. 'Ve
took first place in the interclass Stock Judging contest at the 'Vinter Shows, second
place in the AnJlual Song Contest, and second place in the class football games.
We arc reprcsented in all school activities; being on the Football Squad, in the Glee
Club, in the Odette and in thc Debating and Basketball squads.
'Ve had our good times also; one we will long remember being' the All Freshmen
Party, held early in the year, wherc we became acquainted with our class-mates. The
second term our class was increased by the addition of sixty more students.
Stanton Gandrud was chosen class prcsident, and Miss Bede and Mr. Milligan our
class ad"isers, to whose able guidance we attribute our success. vVe have daily
tried to live up to our ~Iotto, "Forward ever, Backward never." And as we go on
through school we shall always try to keep that ideal before us.

OOTBALL has taken a leading part in the activities at the Northwest School.
Thc
achievements made in football the past few years
.
are very commendable. The popularity of the game
has increased rapidly and now ranks highest in the
esteem of the entire school. T'he handicap of less
practice than other teams, which have a longer school
term, has been more than offset by the fighting spirit
and hard work of the players.
The success of the team has been largely due to
the able coaching of D. H. LaVoi, with H1e assistance
of D. A. Milligan. The teaching of tactical plays
and the value of clean sportmanship by Mr. LaVoi,
together with the splendid line coaching by Mr. Milligan resulted in the development of a team which
ranks as one of the most success.ful teams in the
Northwest; a team which has lost only one game a year for the last three years.
Prospects for 1926 were not very good as many of the experienced players of
the year before had completed their football career, only four letter-men returning.
This made it necessary to develop new players from a squad of inexperienced men,
who, by their hard work and determination, were soon moulded into another strong
team. Credit must also be gi\'en tl1e second team and other players for tl1eir part
in giving the regulars daily competition. The support of the faculty and t'he student body has also meant much to the team's success.

The second game this sea on wa with the strong ~Iayville Teacher College. It
was played on the Jatters field against a team of experienced football men. The
Aggies, only having had ten days practice and minus some of their regula,' players,
lacked their full strength.
TIle game started with the Aggies kicking off to ~Iayville who received on their
ten-yard line. They then carried the ball to the Aggie forty-yard line, where the
Aggie defense tightened and th'ey lost the ball on downs. Taking the ball, the Aggies

The annual game with Morris was the third of the season. It took place on
Homecoming Day before a large crowd of enthusiastic Alumni, former students,
and friends. This game was considered one of the hardest of the season, as Morris
was represented by one of the best teams in years.
Due to tlle wet condition of the field, considerable punting was done and straight
football was adhered to. Crookston kicked off to l\Iorris who returned the ball
25 yards and then lost the ball on downs. Taking the ball on the 50-yard line,
Crookston made several first downs but fumbled and Morris recovered. Morris
punted to our 45-yard line and after several well executed plays, the ball was in our
possession on the Morris 16-yard line. On the next play vVidseth carried it over
the goal line for our first touchdown.
During the second quarter both teams played safe by punting, although the ball
was in Morris' territory most of the time. The score at the end 0'£ the first half was
(l to 0 in our favor.
Morris kicked off and we returned to the 50-yard line where we were forced to
plmt. The ~rorris safety fumbled and Ostlie recovered, giving us tIle ball on the
~10rris 30-yard line. It took only a few line plays through the l\Iorris left tackle
and Widseth went over for our second touchdown. Skatvold kicked goal, and the
score was 13 to O. During the third quarter the l\Iorris goal was threatened twice.
Once the ball was on the 2-yard line but we were penalized.
The game was well played by both teams, Morris being outclassed and only able
to make two first downs to our thirteen.

.Aggies 19; Jlillsbnrn 12
On October 12) the strong Hillsboro eleven was defeated in one of the most spectacular games ever played here. Having won most of their games and with exper·ienced players back) they were confident of vietory.
The Aggies scored first after a drive down the field) making consistent gains
through the line and around the ends. The Hillsboro team made many long gains
by the aerial route) but nevcr threatened the Aggie goal. The score at the end of
thc first half was 6 to 0 in our favor. Hillsboro) receiving the ball at the beginIJing of the second llalf) made a marcll down the field by many passes and end runs)
which netted them a touchdown. They) too) missed their goal a.£ter the touchdown)
tieing the score) 6 to 6. From this point on) tlle Aggies started their real offense.
Gandrud intercepted a forward pass and by clever manoeuvering) ran down the side
line through the entire Hillsboro team for 70 yeards before being downed. On the
next play) the ball was sho,-ed across the line and Skatvold place-kicked for the
extra point. The next Aggie score came when 'Vidseth went over for our third
touchdown) a·fter the ball had been carried from the center of the field by end runs
and off tackle rushes by Skatvold, Stenborg) and vYidseth. Hillsboro pulled a shoe
string pass which was good for 50 yards and a touchdown. They missed this goal
kick making tlJC score ]9 to 12 in favor of thc Aggies .

The last game of the season was played on "Parents Day" before a large crowd.
It was a hard fought game, as the teams were evenly matched in weight.
The game started with the Aggies kicking off. Thief River received and immediately started passing) but was unable to make any ground due to the defense of our
backfield. They then started line bucks and short end runs. The Aggies were
unable to stop them because of their good interference. The result was a touchdown for Thief River. They failed to kick goal. The Aggies then received the
ball and by line plunges and fake plays) carried it across for their first score. "Scats"
then place kicked and made the winning point for the Aggies.
During the remainder 0.£ the game, the ball see-sawed back and forth. Both
teams threatened to score, Thief Ri,ier failing when their pass over the goal went
wide. Stenborg starred for the Aggies, and Berggren, ~Iackowiak, and ';Vardeberg
also played a good game.

aLLOWING an intermission of two weeks, our athletic interests turned to
basketball. TIle prospects for a winning team were not good due to the fact
that most of the team were picked from a squad of new and inexperienced players,
only one letterman being on hand for the first game.
Two weeks of strenuous practice put the team in condition for the first game,
which was played with Stephen on our floor. The result was a victory for the
Aggies. A return game was played a week later on Stephen's floor in which they
took revenge by beating our team by one point. These were the only games played
before the holidays.
Basketball was resumed again with renewed interest at the start of the winter
term. Prevailing sickness among several of the first team men was a big obstacle in
the way of keeping the team in first class condition during the season. Erling Gorden, regular forward before Christmas, did not return to school because of thds.
Sickness was partly the reason why we lost, by a narrow margin, to Thief River
Falls on their home floor.
In one of the most exciting games c\'er played on the home floor, the Aggies beat
the strong Fertile team, tournament winners of district two. "Vhen the time was up,
the score was a tie, and an overtime period in which Skatvold and Gandrud both
scored field goals ended the game in fa\'or of the Aggies.
The game at Ada, where our team played the fast Ada squad, turned out a decided
victory for our opponents. The Aggies were unable to check Ada's repeated scoring. They made up for this defeat a week later by defeating Bemidji Teachers) 011

our floor. The gam with Fo ton was fa. t and hard fought. Luchau, playing
center for the .\g<ries, showed hi abilit:· as a tar player by scoring four field goals
(lnt of fi"e attempt. It i regrettable that illne prevented him from playing the
remainder of the ea on.
Like all othel' conlest with the West Central School at }Iorris, the annual basJ,etball game is al ways kcenly anticipated by the Aggies. The game this year was
no exception. IL was looked for\\"al'd to as the most impOl'tant on our schellule.
The Crookston Aggics went into the game withl a determination to win and, as a
result, Morris was ('ompletely outclassed. Accurate shooting and driving team
work on the part of 0111' team gave them the lead early in the game, and from then
on they had their opponents bewildered, Due to close guarding by Ostlie, Morris
was unable to makc many scores. The fast work of Hedstrand was very
eH'ecti\'e in breaking liP' llieir plays. Honor
go to Gandrud, Skatvold, and
Stenborg for th ir scoring during the game. Thi was the best game played by our
Leam this season. The last game was with the Remidji Teachers at Bemidji, which
resulted ill a 19-]6 "jetory for the Aggie.

Although it had but a very small group 0.£ students to pick from, the Advanced
team has made a record for itself in class basketball. They have defeated both
Senior and the Freshmen teams in the first series of games played and must be
reckoned with when the school championship is to be decided.
8euior Qtlass meam
As is customary in basketball at the Northwest School, the members of the first
team cannot take part in the interclass games. For this reason the aggressive players
are well weeded out of the Senior Class. Nevertheless, the Senior team won third
place in the interclass games, losing to the Advanced and Juniors, but winning over
the Freshmen.

The Junior have shown their ability in basketball by winning all gameg to date.
The outcome of the final game in which they will play the Advanced is not known at
t his time, but their chances for winning the interclass championship are good. Undoubtedly the Junior team will furnish good material for the scJlOol team next year.
Due to their lack 0.£ experience in basketball, it is but natural to expect the Freshmen to lose to their more experienced opponents. In the games played the right
spirit and fight were very obvious. This offsets the fact that they lost. vVith more
practice, togetller with the rigl1t spirit, the Freshmen team will develop several goud
players.

opposition for the upper classmen when they meet in a class game.
A team made up of Seniors and Advanced students met the Juniors in December

The same question was used two yea rs ago. The ~Ic:\T ary-Haugen Bill
was chosen again, because of its immediate and vital public interest, especiall~' here
in the :\Iiddle West. The possibility of its passing both houses and going to the
president, before the date of the debate was not foreseen. The result 0.£ this, was
that the president's veto made it necssary to re-arrange some of the speeches, esp~eia]]y on the negati"e side.
It has been customal'y for the negative to tra'Tl, but at the suggestion of one of
tl:Je other SdlOO:S it was agreed that this year the affirmative should travel. The West
Central school at :\Iorris will send thcir affirmati"e team here while our affirmative
team will go to Fargo.
The members of botll teams lire certain their side is right. Those for the affirmative wanted the McNary-Haugen Bill to hecome a law, while those on the negative,
all farmers, were glad the presi(Lnt vetoed it.
l\Iuch interest was shown in debate and a large group reported for preliminary
tryouts. From this group, twe:"e were selected to make the squad. After mueh
work had been done in preparation, the final tryouts were held and the following
were selected to represent the ~orthwest School.

which time programs are given.
Of the two girls societies, the Home Economics Club was organi7.ed first, and the
:i.\Iaria Sanfol'{] Club in 1920, when the increase in enrollment necessitated another
organization. Thc big c\'ent of the season for the girls is the declamatory contest
which takes place between the two societies Commencement vVeek.
Of the boys societics, the Pioneer was o,rganized first in 19]0, the Lincoln in 19]5,
and the Agrarian in 19]9. The boys devote mueh of their time to debate and
oratory. The annual inter-society debate held January 10 resulted in a tie between
the Pioneer and Lincoln societies.
The programs put on by each society arc planned and carried out by the students
with the help of tlleir ath'isers, and include literary and musical numbers as well as
uemonstrations of various kinds.

OYS' and Girls' club work has become an important part of the extension
program in the Red River Valley. In 1926, nearly 4,000 were enrolled in
Northwestern ~rinnesota. Better practices in agriculture and home making are demonstrated by tllese juniors. Surveys in a dozen different states show that some of
these improved methods are adopted into the regular practice of the farm and home,
on at least two out 0.£ every five farms.
Our enrollment last year showed a marked increase in the li,-estock projects. The
achievements were also outstanding. The Grand Champion pig at the Junior Livestock Show in 1926 was owned and raised by Henry Roningen of Pelican RapidS.
Money that he earned through club work, together with a hundred dollar scholarship
from the Minneapolis J01lrnal, has made it possible for Henry to attend the College
of Agriculture, at St. PauL
Wayne Naugle of Ada, had the reserve champion baby steer at the Junior Livestock
~how. He raised and fed an Angus steer. In John Letnes we have a dairyman of no
mean ability. His Ayrshire calf took first in its class at the State Fair in 1925. He
too, won a one hundred dollar scholarship awarded by the Minneapolis J01l1'nal. He
is now attending the Northwest School of Agriculture, at Crookston.
A national cllampionship with a bread demonstration was won by Lorna and Ruth
Gritfin of Kittson county. Because they were state champions in the breau demonstration at the State Fair, they were awarded a trip in the National Boys' anel
Girls' Club Congress held in connection with the International Livestock Show at
Chicago. Here they demonstrated in t'ompetition with teams from several othel'
51 ates, winning first place.
:Many educational trips are furnished club members each year. Several hundred
from this district receiveu trips to the State Fair, Junior Livestock Show, Short
Courses at St. Paul, and the ~orthwest School at Crookston. Club tours, camps,
picnics, and county fairs, are giving many an opportunity to get information as well
as enjoyment. The "'inter Show at Crookston is doing much to assist the club
folks in theil' work.

IX months supervised home project work on the farm and in the home has been
a feature 0.£ Minnesota's special schools of agriculture since its inception.
Project work in sewing, canning, preserving, baking, embroidering, and hemstitching
for girls, and in tractor operation, livestock raising, pure seed production, corn and
potato growing for boys, is required of all students. Each project is planned by the
student in conference with the instructor in the subject involved, and each project
student is visited at home during the summer by the supervisors. The home economics projects are in charge of Miss Retta Bede. D. H. La Voi and E. R. Clark
are supervisors of agricultural projects.
The community service projects in \vhich each student assists in the leadership
of a local boys' and girl's' club, farmers' club, or other community organization was
added to the list of projects in 1924. Eleven students carried on this leadership
work during the past summer. These were Victoria Lewis, vYarroad; Isabelle Dobias;
Angus; Loren Parkin, Euclid; .Chester Torgerson, Fergus Falls; Carrie Buck,
Crookston; Alice Lindstrom, vYaubun; Alice Landro, Hendrum; and Edwin vYiebe,
Ottertail.

the agricultural projects, exhibits 0.£ corn, potatoes, and pure seed were shown. The
110me economics section included specimens of work in fifteen different projects in
sewing, baking, canning, and fancy work. The home economics exhibits were judged

AUDITORIUM
i\9s~mbly lanur
Our school assemblies playa big' part in the school program. Many of the programs are put on by students under the direction of Miss Simley and Mrs. Genung.
At the beginning of the school year, the students had the privilege of hearing Gov.
Christianson. There have been several other addresses given by prominent people
of the surrounding community, and of outside towns. We have also been fortunate to be favored with several musical numbers given by representatives of the
Department 0.£ Music from the University of Minnesota.
All these programs are entertaining and educational, and llelp to keep up the
school spirit.

The girls started their fJ'olie by introducing themselves, after which the Freshmen
were initiatrti. and songs sung by all. The girls also scrambled for apples. The

To C. G. S.
Once I was a democrat,
And thought it lots 0.£ fun
But changed like a chameleon
"'hen you set out to "run."
And now yon are a Congressman
And I a woman true,
No matter what your policies
I'll always be for YOU!
-A SuffragcLte.
N oticc : I have such a perfect
charactcr and have behaved so well
that I ddy any Senior to find anything about me worth putting in the
annual. Miss Polski.
Notice: vVe haven't been able to
find out whether Miss Polski is naturally that way or whether she is
just too clever for us, but we DO
KNOW that she is hard to wake up
in the morning!
-The Editor.
'l'H E JOY OF BEING EDITOR
Gettin' out this book was not a
picnic. If Il'e pl'int jokes, people
say wc are illy; if we don't they
say we are too serious. If we clip
things from other books we are too
lazy to write them ourselves; if wc
don't, we are stuck on our own
slufi'. If wc stick close to the job
all day, we ought to be out hunting' up news. If we do get out and
Lry to hustlc, we ought to be on the
job in the office.
If we don't print contributions,
we don't appreciate true genius, and
if we do print them, they say the
book is filled with junk. If we make
a change in the other fellow's writeup) we are too critical; if we don't
we are asleep.
:N ow like as not some one will say
we wiped this from some other
book.
WE DID! ! !
E. Viker: "The word mule is
Male spelled wrong."
O. Stenborg: "But the Latin dictionary says that woman is "mulier."

There is nothing left for u to do but settle back to walch the presses roll off the
work of 0111' llearts; tllen to await your judgment.
In tllis last work of ours tllere are many whom we wish to remember. Olltstanding among these are the pel"sonncl of the Buckbee-:Mears Engraving Company,
especially in Mr. F. D. Fredell llave we found a companion in llelping us solve
our pl"oblcms and one wIlD has aided us materially in our plans for the book. The
Sanford Press of Faribault and Mr. Glenn M. Schroeder, the President, are
responsiblc for the fine work in printing as well as help in making he task of compiling this book a lighter one. To Mr. John Benson, of the Benson Studio, goes
the eredit for the unusually fine pllotographs in the book, and to ~Ir. ~Iaynal'd Hedrick, credit for the high class art work wllich appears between its covers. Mr. R.
S. Dunllam, for his kind help, Mrs. DeEtte Cenfield Genung, and Miss Retta Bede
a::e others to whom we must express our appreciation.
\Ve are sorry to see our book completed, because with it our work comes to an
end. The many feverish a.fternoons and evenings spent in assembling its contents
have created a lasting friendship within its staff.
The spirit in which tIle work was done is just another indication of llOw truly
we apply our school motto "vVE SERVE."
The satisfaction of acllievement is ours-the book is yours.
