He attended and graduated from the 8th grade at Bay School, located ¾ miles from the farm. He then attended Devils Lake Central High School and graduated in the class of 1930. He had hoped to play football in high school but had to help on the family farm and after graduating continued farming with his Dad, but now used a tractor and plow instead of horses. On November 18, 1939, Adolf was united in marriage to Signe A. Johnson at the Norway Lutheran Church, rural Devils Lake. In 1942, they purchased the former Fred Thomas farm which was just across the road from Adolf's parents.
