In the spring of 1900 he was elected to the high school in Bern and taught history and German for 37 years at the Progymnasium and the literature school, and later also at the commercial school. [...] For years he also directed the high school orchestra. "

Sutermeister also wrote for the Bern daily newspaper Der Bund :

“He was a master of light-hearted philosophy, and he shook the kaleidoscope of the German language to please himself and us with the playful coincidences of his rhymes. So he brought some cheerful, but also some thoughtful notes into our newspaper text "

- Obituary in the federal government

In November 2012, Ueli Maurer quoted Sutermeister's dissertation in his Easter celebration speech, freedom in danger : " Metternich means: 'Today Switzerland stands alone as a republic and it serves as a free port for troublemakers of all kinds.'"
