B. S. ASQUITH.


B. S. Asquith, the son of Mr. and Mrs. T. G. Asquith, was brought up in Lincoln township and attended the country schools there. Subsequently he was graduated from the State Normal School at Cedar Falls, taught for some time in the Harlan schools and later in eastern Iowa. Entering the State University of Iowa, he was graduated from that institution, soon after being chosen to a position as teacher of history in the Council Bluffs high school. He was very successful in his work, so that in a few years he became principal of that high school, a position which he now holds successfully.
