�THE SCHOOL
PURPOSE
This school was established by statute of the state for the purpose of "training teachers in the art of instructing and governing
in the public schools of this state."
In carrying out this purpose it is the constant aim of the school
to try to advance the cause of education by maintaining a progressive attitude in its faculty and seeking to cultivate in its
students ideals of faithful service.
So far as the work is based upon public school subjects they
are those of the elementary schools; but the school offers much, in
both professional instruction and training, that makes its diploma
valuable also to high school teachers. In its summer session, one
department offers a six weeks' course specifically for high school
teachers in special subjects.
EQUIPMENT
The normal school building is a thoroughly modern structure
having a capacity of two hundred students. Class rooms are furnished with individual desks for the - members of the school. An
extensive library supplies all text books as well as books of reference
and magazines. There are laboratories for work in physics and
chemistry, and the school is equipped with a projection lantern and
various scientific material. Excellent provision is made also for
work in drawing and sewing. A gymnasium provides opportunity
for instruction in games and folk dancing, as well as basket ball and
other indoor exercise.
The present dormitory offers accommodation for but twenty
students. It is a half minute's walk from the main school building.
A large plot of land adjoining the normal school grounds has been
bought by the state for a dormitory site.
11
�TRAINING SCHOOLS
Twenty-seven public school rooms are under normal school
management for use as training schools for students. These include the whole fourteen-room building of Balmforth Avenue
school and the eight-room building of Locust Avenue school; also
the primary room at vVhite Street school and one primary room at
New Street school. Two rural schools, one at Miry Brook and one
at Sherman Center, offer opportunity for training under actual
country school conditions. A kindergarten is maintained in one
room of the normal school building.
Excepting the kindergarten and the rural school in Sherman,
all of these are regular public schools in the town of Danbury. By
contract with the state the town furnishes the buildings, heat, and
janitor service, and contri·b utes to the cost of supplies for children
at an annual rate of fifty cents per pupil. The state, through the
normal school officers, assumes the entire management of the
schools, pays for books and supplies to pupils in excess of the sum
stated above, and agrees to maintain a standard of schools as high
as of those un de r town manag~ment. Teachers are engaged by
the normal school officers, and receive from the town a salary equal
to the average that it pays in that grade. The state pays each
teacher an additional sum.
The work of these schools is under the immediate supervision
of a director of training, who is also the instructor in school management at the normal school. Each room in the training schools
is regularly in charge of one teacher, who also serves as instructor
in teaching and management to the one or two students temporarily
assigned to her room.
LOCATION
Danbury is on the western border of Connecticut. Being an
industrial city of twenty thousand, and the center of an extensive

��THE CUR1RICULUM
Candidates for graduation must successfully complete the
equivalent of two years' work of thirty-six weeks each. This may
be done wholly during the usual "school years" from September to
June, or in part at the summer sessions as set forth on page 3 I.
NATURE OF THE WORK
The work includes courses of instruction in education and
school management, in the methods of teaching the usual elementary
school subjects, and in the content of a few school subjects in which
students generally are not well grounded. Members of both senior
and junior classes also receive training in the art of teaching and
managing a school.
The maturity of the students and the serious purpose of the
school call for standards of requirement equal to those of the first
two years of college. Such work as is done in common school
subjects is technical instruction in the philosophy and methods of
teaching them. With very little exception the content of these
elementary subjects is not taught, and students are assumed either
to know it or to be able to post themselves without help.
SYLLABUS
The following syllabus, adopted by the state board of education is the basis on which the work of the school is planned.

TRAINING
Training m teaching and managing children under actual
schoolroom conditions forms a very important part of the normal
18
���school course. Each student spends an aggregate of one-half year's
full time in the training schools. This course is divided into five
periods of one full month each. Three of these periods are scattered through the senior year, and the other two are divided among
four months of half days in the junior year, as shown in the following schedule:

This schedule will be in operation after this year. Owing to
changes in the general curriculum some irregularities now prevail.
Division A of the senior class includes the first half of the class
alphabetically. Of the junior class, division A at present includes
those in residence here and B those who commute; so far as practicable the class will be divided on this basis.
The work of each training period is planned to focus the
student's attention upon one phase of teaching or management. In
the first period the student gives particular attention to the physical
surroundings, the welfare of pupils, and a study of the pupils' individual needs; in the second period emphasis is on the lesson
planning, with preparation of illustrative materials for use in teaching, arrangement of blackboard work, etc.; in the third, planning
for work of the pupils during study hours and checking accomplishment, learning the place and value of individual instruction in
methods of study, and a study of recreation periods; fourth, construction of a daily plan sheet showing the ground to be covered in
19
�each subject, with due reference to the needs of the class and in
accordance with requirements outlined in the course of study; fifth,
preparation of each days' work as if the entire responsibility for
the room were the student's.
Each student spends a portion of every day in observing classes
taught by the teacher in charge of the room. A report of one or
more of these classes is submitted to the teacher at the close of the
day. This report states the purpose of the lesson and the steps
taken in accomplishing the purpose, together with notes on special
features which the student may have been asked to look for-such
as method of gaining attention, activities of pupils, etc.
The amount of teaching done by the students is gradually increased as they gain experience. In the first training period their
average teaching is twenty minutes daily; in the second forty minutes; in the third period fifty minutes plus one continuous quarter
of a day toward the encl; in the fourth, one hour plus one full half
day; and in the final period, after the first week the student must be
ready to take entire charge of the room at any moment and continue it indefinitely.
The teaching of the first trammg period is wholly of small
groups. In the second period the student teaches first one and later
two classes daily, for which she is required to prepare detailed
plans. For the third, one of the assigned lessons is planned in
detail and the others in the form of outlines. In the fourth period
rather full outlines are made for several lessons, and in the fifth a
teacher's plan sheet is prepared for each day.
In the early part of training the student is made responsible
for the care of physical surroundings in the class room-for ventilation and temperature regulation, care of materials, arrangement of
20
�blackboard work, etc. As the amount of teaching is increased,
other duties are accordingly diminished.
Toward the end of each day the student has a brief conference
with her training teacher, in which she receives such notes on her
work through the day as will enable her to improve or strengthen
it in the future. She is also given opportunity to inquire about any
phase of the work which she does not clearly understand.
By arrangement of the training periods at intervals throughout
the two years' normal course it is intended that class-room study
and practical experience shall stimulate and supplement each other
to the advantage of both. Every student is able to gain experience
in at least four representative grades and under different teachers.
Each has two weeks training in one of the rural schools.
21
�COURSES OF STUDY
EDUCATION COURSES
EDUCATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY
Twelve Weeks
The first course in education is based upon the growth and education of the nervous system. Its purpose is to give definite ideas
of the mechanism of human behavior with reference to its capacities for education.
Each student is expected to acquire ability to use the terms and ·
express the ideas of elementary psychology, and to get clear meanings from the simpler books in the subject.
THE EDUCATIVE PROCESS
Eighteen Weeks
This is a course in the principles of education as applied in
teaching and managing school children. It is based upon the course
in elementary psychology. The purpose is to teach how the pupils'
capacities for education may be utilized and directed, what objectives should guide the teacher's work, and how results may be
measured.
Students are expected to be able to state some educational principles clearly, to show how these are applied in school work, and to
give evidence of increasing ability to get accurate meanings from
educational literature.
PSYCHOLOGY OF ELEMENTARY SUBJECTS
Six Weeks
The purpose of this course is to teach the psychological principles that underlie the methods of teaching elementary subjects,
22
�particularly reading, arithmetic, and spelling. The course is given
in the junior year immediately after Education I, as the students
are at that time studying the methodology of these subjects in both
normal and training departments.
EDU CATIONAL SYSTEMS
Nin e W eeks
This course is designed to impart some knowledge of presentday educational systems that are familiar in name, and of those men
and methods of the past that have had some bearing upon public
schools of to-day. Its aim is to stimulate the teachers' profession~!
interest in their work, and especially to lay the foundation for their
own progress in sympathy with that of educational methods.
The students are expected to be able to state the notable
features of each system considered, and also to form and state ideas
of their own regarding their value.
P SYCHOLOGY OF DEFICIBNTS
Six W eeks
Defects of hearing, vision, speech, and mentality are considered. The objects of this work are to instruct teachers in what
sorts of deficiencies to look for, what signs may indicate these, and
what they should do when suspected cases come to their attention.
Methods of determining deficiency are discussed, and ways of dealing with such deficient children as must remain in regular classes
of normal pupils.
EDUCATIONAL READING
Three Weeks
Throughout their courses in education students are expected to
gain familiarity with the names and content of books and other
literature of the subject. Assigned readings are required in a
variety of sources. This brief course at the close of the senior year
23
�aims to fix the students' attention upon familiarity with educational
literature as a goal. Results of their previous reading are tested,
and a few typical books are studies and discussed in class.
SCHOOL MANAGEMENT
The aim of this course is to prepare the student to successfully
manage a scnool. This is accomplished first, by observation of and
practice in the management of a particular room in one of the training schools, and second, by a study of the principles underlying
efficient school management.
Among the topics studied are:
the teacher's personality
organization of the school
playground management
hygienic school room conditions
school room decoration
prog ram of work
place and value of routine
keeping of reco rds
technique of class instruction
use of standard tests
order and discipline
co-operation with parents
extra school activities
community interests
professional ethics
METHO DOLOGY
T hirty-six Weeks
The purpose of this course is to organize the subject matter of
history, reading, writing, geography, and arithmetic, and to present
the best methods of teaching these subjects in the primary, intermediate, and grammar grades.
24
�In addition to the class work in the normal school, lessons are
given in the model schools demonstrating the methods under discuss10n.
LITERATURE
This course aims to make the prospective teacher familiar with
the literature used in the grades, aware of its particular value, and
adept in its presentation. In connection with the work of the upper
grades the student is expected to acquire a real appreciation not
only of the specific selection but of the author and his place in
literature. The work is taught not for its own sake alone but for
its power to enrich and interpret life. Emphasis, therefore, is laid
upon that which is of permanent worth in form and content.
Incorporated in the literature course are a course in public
speaking and one in directed reading. The public speaking course
aims to develop: adequate oral and written reproduction of material
from outside sources; story-telling technique; and rapid accurate
judgment in choice of new material and adaptation of both new
and old.
The directed reading aims to promote discrimination in the
reading for both relaxation and information and familiarity with
the work of contemporaries whose writings are of weight in the
educational world.
LANGUAGE
In this course stress is laid upon fund amental ideals of language,
-to cultivate a rich, flexible language fund and the ability to draw
upon it at need and will. Material is drawn from other studies,
language games used, force of imitation emphasized, and the dependence of every other study upon language is made conspicuous.
25
�SCIENCE COURSES
ELEMENTARY SCIENCE
Twelve Weeks
Some elementary principles of physics are taught as a basis for
science lessons in the higher elementary grades. The course deals
largely with subj ect matter, followed by some study of methods of
presenting science lessons. In general the subjects are chosen with
reference to their bearing upon matters of common usefulness,
from these major topics:
Common forces
Fluids
Heat
Sound
Light
Electricity
CHEMISTRY
Six Weeks
The purpose of the course is to familiarize students with the
chemistry of such substances and processes as are common in everyday experience and important for us to !-:now.
The substances discussed are air, water, foods, fuels, clothing
materials, and products of the earth.
The processes discused are oxidation, combustion, explosion,
cleaning processes, fermentations.
NATURE STUDY
Eighteen Weeks
The work of the senior year is a course in nature study, designed to give teachers an interest in and a working knowledge of
natural phenomena in their surroundings. Some attention is also
paid to the need for informing them in certain matters of physical
geography that are not usually understood by our students. The
26
�subjects of the course include studies of the heavens; face of the
earth; climate and weather; minerals and natural resources; plants ,
with particular reference to trees; animals-such as flies and miceof which a general knowledge is desirable; and birds.
During this course each student is required to become familiar
with approximately twenty trees, rocks, constellations, and birds.
This they do largely on their own initiative, but tests are held at
stated times.
AGRICULTURE
The work in agriculture is intended to give students a knowledge of some elementary principles of agriculture. The emphasis
is rather upon the care of plants because some of the principles
involved are so universally applicable. The purpose is to prepare
teachers to give children an interest in the work of the farm and
some useful knowledge.
The following topics are included in the coursePlant life
Soil
Care of trees
Insect pests
Plant diseases
SOCIOLOGY
The course is divided into five large topics.
I.
Influences that effect the li fe of society m evolution;
geographic; psycho-physical; social.
2.
Social groups: differentiation of types ; races: characteristics; nationalities in Connecticut population ; institutions;
needs; problems.
3. Social pathology ;-causes, remedies, control; dependent, delinquent, deficient children: 'institutions and management of charities in Connecticut, Indiana, and European systems. Local sociological investigations.
27
�4. Vital statistics :-immigration; illiteracy; poverty;
pauperism, etc. Use of statistics in social progress and control.

those who teach music;
2
a survey of work for the eight grades with emphasis on
method;
3 observation, discussion and practice in the teaching of rote
songs;
4 chorus singing, to correlate with theory and grade work

in perspective, pottery interiors, landscapes, animals and pose.
B. The work in mechanical drawing aims to teach
measuring, accuracy, scale, printing, simple constructive drawing, maps, floor plans and working drawings, with the end in
view that students shall be able to make and read working
drawings .

and line with the application and decorative aspects of flowers,
nature and abstract units. Poster design and lettering also
make up part of the course in design.
DRAWING
2
This course covers the methods of teaching drawing in the
elementary schools. It includes
A. Study of the course in drawing for the state schools;
interpretation; illustrating; and methods of teaching the lessons
in the grades. Correlation, construction, paper cutting and
drawing for the primary grades; drawing, mechanical drawing

C. The course in art history aims at an appreciation and
familiarity with the fine things in any craft from architecture
to painting. Special emphasis is given to picture study. A
visit to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York city is
planned at the close of the course.
SEWING
1
The course in plain sewing includes practice in hand and machine work with instruction in the use of commercial patterns and
practice in making simple garments. At least three projects must
be complete during the Junior year. These have been planned, for
this year, to meet the requisitions for refugee garments, and have
included baby garments, children's dresses, and women's skirts.
SEWING
2
A more advanced course is planned to meet the needs of the
teacher in the elementary schools . It deals with the organization
and methods of teaching sewing for varying conditions of school
29
�systems. This course includes the study of textiles, production,
manufacture, identification and use. The advanced garment making
includes at least three finished problems, which may be a shirt
waist, and dresses of light cotton materials, or serge skirts.
30
�THE SCHOOL YEAIR
The normal school is in session the entire year except for
brief recesses between terms. The traditional year begins in September and ends 'in June. It includes thirty-six full weeks of five
days each, making the total length somewhat more than thirty-six
calendar weeks. Students regularly complete the course in two
such years.
Beginning this year the school has endeavored to provide for
those who wish to shorten their course, by maintaining a summer
term of its regular school work. This term begins with the usual
summer school ( page .40) and covers six weeks. By having longer
hours for classes and making the work intensive, it is possible <to
allow credit for this work equivalent to nine weeks of the usual
school year. Students entering in September and continuing
through this summer term may be able to complete their work nine
weeks ahead of the regular class-that is, early in April.
Students desiring to further economize their time may enter
the school at the beginning of its summer term in July, and continue
through the course without the usual vacation. These students will
do the work of the second summer term and may be entitled to
diplomas at the end of the first semester of the senior year, about
February first.
It is important that those desiring to enter in July should notify
the principal as early as possible, and not later than June 15. Classes
will not be formed in July unless the number of applicants is sufficient to warrant it.
31
�ADMISSION
The privileges of the school are open to all persons of suitable
character and over sixteen years of age, who declare their serious
intent to teach in the public schools of Connecticut, and who satisfy
any one of the conditions enumerated below.
r. Graduates of four year courses in Connecticut high schools
who have attained an average rank of at least 75% on a passing
mark of 70% are admitted on the certificate of the high school
principal. This rank is equivalent to 66.6% on a passing mark of
60%, 70.84% on a passing mark of 65%, and 79.16% on a passing
mark of 75%.
2
Graduates of four year courses in Connecticut high schools
who have not attained the rank stated above, may be admitted on
passing an examination prepared by the principals of all Connecticut normal schools acting as a board.
These examinations will be held at each of the four normal
schools on June 16 and September 2. The June examination
may also be given at any high school in the state upon application to
the principal of the normal school at least one week before the date
stated.
Candidates must offer ten units, in subjects as set forth below.
A unit represents one year's study of the subject in a secondary
school-approximately one-quarter of a year's work. The subjects
and values are as follows :
English literature and composition, required
The remaining seven units are to be chosen from these:
Algebra

INTENT TO TEACH
Particular attention is called to the requirement that all applicants for admi ss ion sign a written statement of their intention to
teach in the public schools of this state. It is undesirable that any
shall accept the prvileges of the school who do not feel that they
are working for this specific object.
TIME OF ENTRANCE
Classes are organized at the beginning of the first term in September, and at the opening of the summer term in July if the
minimum number of candidates appear (see page 31).
APPLICATION FOR ADMISSION
It is desirable that all who hope to enter the school should
make application to the principal in advance, stating the conditions
for entrance that they expect to satisfy.
It is especially important that those who expect to enter the
school at its summer term in July should make application to the
principal not later than June 15. Failure to do this may result in the
applicant's being refused admission at that time.
SPECIAL STUDENTS
Persons who are properly qualified are occasionally admitted
as special students in certain subjects or departments of the school.
No comprehensive statement can be made in regard to tnis, as each
case must be separately considered. Those who desire to do such
special work should communicate with the principal.
33
�GENERAL INFORMATION
EXPENSES
The school makes no charge for tuition, laboratory fees , or the
use of books. All text books are provided by the school. Aside
from living expenses and travel, students have only the slight incidental costs of note books, pencils, etc.
Board and lodging at the dormitory are furnished at actual cost
of maintenance. It is necessary at present to ask $7.00 per week,
with a reduction for absence at week ends on the basis of fifteen
cents per meal. It is possible to get accommodation in private
houses at rates from $6.50 to $10.00.
LIVING ARRANGEMENTS
The dormitory is a new building, equipped with modern facilUnfortunately it can accommodate but twenty students.
Most of the boarding places are with families who can provide for
a small number of students. These are located in all parts of the
city. The minimum cost given above applies to cases where two or
three occupy a room and forego some conveniences.
·
ities.
It is of course important to arrange for lodging
coming if possible. Those who would like help in the
address the principal, stating as nearly as possible
accommodation they desire. The map of Danbury,
this catalogue, may be useful.

NON-RESIDENCE
Daily travel from a distance is wasteful and is sure to interfere
with the performance of a student's best work. It is earnestly desired that members of the school shall arrange to live in Danbury if
possible. Lack of dormitory facilities prevents this being made a
requirement. It is required, however, that during their periods of
34
�trammg all students shall observe the hours of attendance (8.15
a.m. to 4.30 p.m.) absolutely, and this makes commuting imprac-
ticable. All students who plan to commute should consult the training schedule on page 19.
SCHOLARSHIPS
An act of the state legislature, intended to secure trained
teachers for the smaller town s, provides scholarships whereby certain students may receive from the state the sum of $150 annually,
to be applied toward living expenses while at normal school. The
conditions under which such a scholarship may be awarded are
these:
The towns contemplated in the terms of this statute are those
having an assessed valuation (set by the state board of equalization) of not over one and one-half millions.
Each of such towns may at all times be represented by one
student in a normal school under the terms of this act.
The student must be recommended by the school board of such
a town.
Such a student must agree to teach in one of the towns described by this statute for three years following graduation unless
excused by the state board of education, except by repaying to the
state the whole of such portion of the scholarship as they shall
require.
The benefits of this scholarship shall be withdrawn from any
student whose work or conduct at the school fails to meet the
standards required by the faculty.
EMPLOYMENT
The school cannot guarantee employment to its graduates. Yet
it may be said, as a matter of fact, that there has not been a year
in its history when the demands upon the school for teachers were
not more numerous than the members of the graduating class.
Those of the class of 1918 went to positions where the salary for

��NOTES
FOR STUDENTS AND PARENT&
THE WORK
The normal school is a professional school with a definite purpose ; its students are assumed to know that purpose and to be
here with intent to work for its accomplishment. They should come
prepared to find methods and requirements that differ in some ways
from those of their previous experience. It is expected that each
student will try, from the outset, to do all her work faithfully-as
is fitting in those who are soon to assume a teacher's responsibility
for others.
STUDENT RESPONSIBIT.ITY
Particularly students are asked to assume responsibility for
their own welfare. They are expected to try and guage their own
work fairly and to confer with the several instructors from time to
time, especially if they have any reason to doubt whether they are
properly meeting requirements.
nTNESS FOR TEACHING
The faculty recognizes its inability to say who will and who
will not make a good teacher. Hence it is our policy to give ample
opportunity for demonstrating ability even to those who seem unprom1smg. Yet when the faculty as a whole becomes convinced
that a student is essentially not quafified for the position of a public
school teacher, the student is notified that she cannot be considered
a candidate for a diploma, and may be asked to withdraw. This is
regarded as but fair to the student, who may then direct her energies
into more suitable channels.
REPORTS
A full report of her standing is given to each student in writing
at the end of every semester. At such time the student will be
37
�notified also if there is any change in her status as a regular candidate for a diploma.
Parents who have not seen the student's report ·by February 15
and July I are requested to confer with the principal of the school.
Students and parents a re entitled to informal reports· at any
time and are invited to ask for them.
A TTENDANCE
Much of the work of school is of such a nature that it cannot
be "made up" by the customary method of outside conferences.
Absence from any part of the school work involves a loss of certain
credits from the student's rank in that course. Special consideration
is given by the faculty to cases of absence due to causes that meet
their app.roval.
Students at the normal school are required to be in their
appointed class rooms at 8.50 A.M. and 1.30 P.M. They are expected to remain in attendance and to be employed at school duties
until I 1.50 A.fyl. and 3.30 P.M., whether they have classes in session or not.
The hours for students in training are 8. 15 to 12.00 A.M. and
I.IO to 4.30 P.M. A student who needs special help may be required by the training teacher to remain until 4.45. Outside
preparation of work which the average student can satisfactorily
comp!ete in two hours is required. Any student who is unable to
complete her daily work in that time is expected to consult the
director of training.
OU TSIDE REGU LATIONS
Students who are living away from their homes are required to
observe the same rules and regulations as govern life at the dormitory.
38
�GYMNASIUM
Every student entering the school should be provided with a
gymnasium costume, consisting of black gymnasium or tennis shoes,
black stockings, black bloomers, and white middy blouse.
BULLETINS
Official announcements are posted on the bulletin board m the
corridor on the first floor. Members of the school are expected to
consult this daily.
STUDENT WELFARE
The principal is always glad to receive and confer with any
student upon matters concerning their work or welfare as members
of the school. In order to make such opportunity easily available,
a committee of the faculty is appointed also for the puropse. The
membership of this committee may be learned from the bulletin
board or by application at the office.
39

SUMMER SCHOOL
In order to make its plant as useful as possible the school has
maintained a summer session nearly every year since 1907.
Originally this session constituted a four weeks' course for
teachers and those who contemplated teaching without normal
training. This has always been well attended and is still the largest
department of the summer school.
During this summer school there have been also for several
years a two weeks' session of the state supervisors of schools and
a ten days' institute for librarians. The supervisors' meetings have
been under the direction of Mr Charles D Hine, secretary of the
state board of education, and the library institute has been in
charge of the state inspector of public libraries.
Three new departments were established m the summer of
1918, each of which proved so successful that it will doubtless be
cont'inued. These were the regular summer term for normal school
students (page 31), the department for high school teachers (page
43), and a department for teachers in evening schools for foreigners.
A folder giving details of the summer school is issued about
the first of June. Those desiring information may perhaps find
what they seek in the catalogue of the 1918 summer school, which
will be sent on request.

�HIGH SCHIOOL TEACHERS
This school has long felt that the work of state normal schools
should include provision for the preparation of high school teachers.
Its courses of professional instruction and the opportunity for experience with pupils under the supervision of competent teachers,
make its two-year course equal in value to the first two years of
college for those who contemplate high school teaching.
Several institutions of college grade at present accept the
diploma of this school as the equivalent of two years' work toward
certain of their degrees. Columbia, Brown, and Boston universities ,
:md the University of Maine will thus allow cred it for two years'
work under certan conditions. We look forward with confidence to
the time when Connecticut normal schools will be on a four-year
basis and grant degrees. At present there is no better preparation
for high school teaching than the two-year professional course at
normal school followed by two years of special subjects at one of
the universities named above.
This school is now making special provision for high school
teachers in one department at the summer session. This department offers a six weeks' course for teachers in secondary school
subjects, under instructors whose standing guarantees a high grade
of work and whose experience assures the practical value of their
courses. A circular describing this summer high school department
will be sent on application.
43
�ORPOIR TUNITY FOR TEACHERS
The best of teachers have always been drawn from the class
of those who are moved by the high ideal of human service with no
consideration of material compensation. Many who have never before thought of it have been aroused by the great deeds and sacrifices of a stricken world, to a desire that their own lives shall count
for something of genuine worth. All thoughtful people must now
as never before appreciate the important place of public education.
Russia, where popular ignorance has led to colossal ruin and misery
beyond all conception; Germany, whose system of public education,
closely controlled by a few, made a nation so powerful in blindly
doing the will of that few; and America with her free and equal
schools, whose whole resources are gathered by the peoeple's will
in defense of world liberty: we cannot think of these without a new
and deep respect for the place of public education. And as our
schools have now borne fruit in an enlightened nation capable of
meeting a great crisis, the need for their important work will by no
means end with the coming of peace. There is no work in the
world, in which women are employed for pay, that is more worthy
of her own best effort and the respect of others than that of a public
school teacher.
This school has never been able to supply the yearly demand for
its graduates. The present shortage of teachers adds a note of duty
to the call for those who would serve their country in the great work
of educating its citizens. With a deeper realization by the public of
the importance of our schools, which is even now beginning to show
results, it is confidently believed that the appeal to those who would
render service as teachers can be supplemented by the hope of
material attractions.
