Education

The 1898 Yearbook of Milwaukee West HS has been put up in PDF (takes a while to load) and is available here.

Go to P. 19 (PDF pagination) and take a look at the coursework required (either curriculum). Then there are PP. 20 and 21, for more.

And there are VERY familiar names. Check out the sophomores in both 'commercial' and 'manual' training courses on P. 31.

Or, on P. 55, you could indulge in a Caesarian takeoff; on P. 57, poetry to make Poe ....ah... blanch.

Plenty of advertisements, but only a few of those firms have survived (actually, one: NML.)

Fun read!
