"Prof Geo. B. Bush who has this department would refer you to the present patrons of the school as to the merits of his work. He deems "Fitness" the key word of the Twentieth Century and considers that a school's usefulness depends upon its ability to fit girls and boys for the duties and aspirations of life."

"He is not an advocate of the quick method, but strongly believes that through much study man alone can attain true success."

Your Superintendent's Opinion:
"I take great pleasure in recommending Prof. G. B. Bush as an excellent teacher. He is full of energy and determination. He carries enthusiasm into all his school work. No young lady or gentleman will make a mistake by attending the Morgantown High School of which Professor Bush is Principal."
