After receiving his elementary education at Dewey School, 2½ miles west of the farm, Herb spent the next two and one-half years working with his father and older brothers on the farm.
Herb entered St. John's College, Winfield, Kansas in 1917 and completed his pre-seminary education there in 1923. Thereafter, he attended Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, Missouri from which he was graduated in 1926. He was ordained into the ministry of The Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod on 29 August 1926 and served conregations in Ellendale and Forbes, North Dakota.
