Prof. W. W. Rittamel

Prof. W. W. Rittamel is the son of the Rev. W. F. Rittamel of Staplehurst, Nebraska.  After his graduation from the Lutheran Teacher's Seminary at Seward, Nebraska, Prof. Rittamel entered the Nebraska State normal school at Fremont, Nebraska, for post-graduate work.  Upon the completion of this course he accepted the position of principal at the high school of Shubert, Nebraska.  Though re-elected to this position, he considered the work of a teacher in a Lutheran parish school of greater importance than mere secular educational work, and accepted our call in September, 1918. He was installed by Pastor Kretzschmar, September 22nd, 1918.  The school under the charge of Prof. Rittamel is prospering.
