History and Location.

In 1870 the legislature made provision for two State Normal Schools: one to be 
located north and the other south of the Missouri river. The school for the First 
Normal District was located at Kirksville, and opened as a state institution 
January 2, 1871.
Adair county voted $100,000 to secure the location of the school, with the 
understanding that the state would pay all other expenses, and keep the school 
in running order. The legislature has made annual appropriations for the 
support of the school, in amounts ranging from $5,000 the first year to $12,500 
at the present time.
To the energy and enthusiasm of Prof. J. Baldwin, the first president of the 
school (now of the University of Texas), more than to any other person, is due 
the credit of the establishment of the State Normal School of the First District at 
Kirksville. He, assisted by Prof. W. P. Nason, Supt. J. M. Greenwood of Kansas 
City, and others, had conducted with decided success a private Normal School at 
Kirksville, for three and one half years prior to the legislature's provision for the 
State Normal, and such was the reputation that it had acquired during the time, 
that the authorities adopted it as the State Normal School for the district) 
without change in the faculty or course of study. Not only is the credit of 
locating the school, in probably the most accessible place for the greatest 
number of the people in North Missouri, due to Prof. Baldwin, but his zeal and 
enthusiasm in the cause of education gave an empetus to our public schools 
which will be felt long after he has filled an honored grave.

LOCATION.
The location is very desirable. Kirksville is proverbial for good health. Railroad 
facilities are all that could be desired. The Wabash Railroad, with its numerous 
connections; the Hannibal & St. Joseph crossing the Wabash at Macon, and 
other connections of the Burlington system; the Quincy, Omaha & Kansas City, 
crossing at this place and connecting at Trenton, Mo., with the Chicago, Rook 
Island & Pacific, at Gault with the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, at Milan with 
the Chicago, Burlington & Kansas City, and at West Quincy with the St. Louis, 
Keokuk & Northwestern; and the Santa Fe extension from Kansas City to 
Chicago, Crossing the Wabash at LaPlata, only a few miles south of Kirksville, 
render the school easy of access from every county in the district. Situated 200 
miles northwest of St. Louis, the institution is accessible to a large and promising 
territory that is rapidly growing in population and in all the elements of thrift. 
Kirksville contains about 5,000 inhabitants--intelligent, moral and 
enterprising--and is growing rapidly. The citizens feel proud of the Normal and 
do all in their power to sustain it.

THE TEACHER.
He should have sound principles, pure and noble impulses and a stainless 
character. The teacher should be an artist. Education is a science and teaching is 
an art; That the mind is self-acting; that education is a growth; that growth is 
the result of well directed effort; that the self-activity of the child, development, 
etc., are the eternal principles upon which the art of education rests. To 
understand intelligently and skillfully is to be an educational artist. The world's 
great want is such artists.

STATE NORMAL SCHOOLS A NECESSITY.
Schools and colleges make scholars, but not teachers, preachers, lawyers, 
doctors, artists, or generals. A few, unaided, work up to pre-eminence, but the 
many remain plodding imitators and fatal bunglers. In all fields of achievement, 
requiring skill, special instruction is required. None need this instruction more 
than the teachers.
The State Normal School is an outgrowth of popular education. The necessity of 
Normal Schools has long since ceased to be discussed by intelligent educators. 
What shall we make them? This is the living question.

ARGUMENTS FOR STATE NORMAL SCHOOLS.
The following are a few of the, arguments in favor of State Normal Schools:
1. They are the best agency yet devised for training teachers.
2. They utilize the educational experience of the race.
3. They popularize and propagate improved methods of instruction and school 
management.
4. They educate teachers to the "manner born."
5. The nation supports military schools; the church endows theological 
seminaries; the state sustains Normal schools.
6. State Normal schools aid all other schools. They provide better teachers for 
common schools and hence more and better students for higher institutions.

NORMAL SCHOOLS MUST BE STATE SCHOOLS.
Law, medicine and commerce pay; hence law, medical and commercial schools 
may safely be left to private enterprise. War, preaching and teaching do not 
pay; hence, to secure officers, preachers and teachers, military, theological and 
normal schools must be sustained. Unless endowed, no collegiate institution 
can be made efficient. The church, associations and individuals endow colleges. 
The Normal School is established for the benefit of the whole people. It is 
essential to the success of the public schools. It can not long be sustained by 
private enterprise. It is a part of the public school system, and its support by the 
state is simply a necessity.

WHAT SHOULD THE NORMAL SCHOOL BE?
The best are far from being models. It seems clear, however, that the Normal 
school of the future will have the following characteristics:
1. As to culture, the Normal school will be the peer of the college.

(Page 7)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  7

2. As to methods, the Normal school will be a model. The highest results 
reached by the best thinkers will be embodied in its practice.
3. As to teaching, the Normal will be a professional school, and will rank with 
those of theology, law and medicine.

General Information.

DESIGN OF THE SCHOOL.
The school was established and equipped as an institution to prepare teachers 
for the public schools of the state. It aims to prepare teachers by-
FIRST.--Giving thorough instructions in such branches of learning as are taught 
in public schools, including graded and high schools.
SECOND.--Giving instruction in the theory of teaching, consisting or methods of 
study, methods of reciting, methods of instruction,, and methods of governing.
THIRD.--Training students in the art of teaching, by practice in the Training 
School.
FOURTH.--Offering examples of good teaching.
Instruction in the various branches of study embraced in a good public school 
course is combined with careful study of methods and actual training in the 
School of Practice. Special prominence is given to education as a science, and as 
an art. School organization, class management, methods of recitation, and such 
other topics in school economy as are especially important to teachers, receive 
careful attention.
The course of study and methods of teaching in this Normal School are based 
upon the following principles:
1. That proficiency in the art of teaching is dependent upon a thorough 
knowledge of the fundamental principles of the science.
2. That every teacher should possess a historical as well as a philosophical 
knowledge of the means by which a harmonious development of the physical, 
intellectual, and moral powers is secured.
3. That clear conceptions of methods can more readily be attained by an 
intelligent study of them in practical operation.
4. That our public schools should not be made practice rooms for pedagogical 
novitiates, but that defects should be remedied and skill acquired in training 
schools supervised by competent critics.
5. That development should always be paramount to acquisition.
6. That economy and adaptability should be the test of a method.
7. That self-government should be the aim of all discipline.
8. That high moral character is one of the essential qualifications of the good 
teacher.
9. That unity of aims and methods is necessary to the economic and successful 
management of the school system of a state.

(Page 8)

8	ANNUAL CATALOGUE

10. That a training secured in working with appliances chosen with method in 
view always proves the most skillful.
11. That no teacher is properly equipped who is not familiar with the various 
methods of utilizing the material about him for illustrating simple lessons in all 
the physical sciences.

KIND OF STUDENTS WANTED.
Our work is special. We do not offer a general academic, college, preparatory, 
or seminary education. We devote our whole time and energy to the training of 
teachers, and all our appliances have been gathered that we might offer better 
advantages to teachers. We invite all those who want to learn to teach, and 
those only. We want those who have good ability, good habits, and good 
purposes. We offer such our best help and encouragement. We can assist them 
greatly. When qualified to do good work as teachers we can help them to 
positions.

COUNSEL TO THOSE WHO HAVE DECIDED TO ATTEND OUR SCHOOL.
Arrange your plans to begin with the session, and be found in the assembly 
room the first morning of the term.
Come with the determination of giving yourself wholly to school work. Expect to 
meet trials, difficulties and discouragements here, but prepare to meet them 
with courage and resolution, and they will soon disappear.
The chief advantage of our school is a high standard of conduct, study and 
recitation, a strong incentive to earnest and faithful work, resulting from many 
and diligent associates, and the encouragement of kind and faithful teachers. 
Come prepared to share in the work and in the rewards of study, and determine 
to do all that good students should do.

DISCIPLINE.
We are, in a measure, responsible to the state for the character and 
acquirements of each pupil graduated from the school. This being the case, we 
are compelled to exercise the most rigid scrutiny in reference to these matters; 
and offenses that in a mere academic institution might be passed over lightly, 
are here viewed as indicating the unfitness of the offender for taking charge of 
and training the children of the state. It sometimes happens that pupils are 
advised to withdraw from the school, or are even dismissed, when no very 
serious charges are brought against them; they have merely convinced us that 
they are not suitable persons to enter the profession of teaching.
No publicity is given to such cases, except when it becomes necessary to protect 
the school from false accusations. Nor is our action ever taken with a view of 
punishing the offenders. They are simply permitted to go to schools where they 
or their parents can pay for the work of discipline. The state can afford to 
educate for teachers only those above the need of such work.

A HIGH STANDARD.
This State Normal School proposes to maintain a high standard of excellence, 
both as to scholarship and as to attainments in model school work.

(Page 9)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  9

Our inquiry is, and will remain, not how many can we graduate, but how many, 
and who, are thoroughly prepared for graduation? "Thoroughness" is our 
motto.
For the sake of those who employ our teachers, and for the sake of the teachers 
themselves, we desire TO MAKE OUR DIPLOMAS VALUABLE, and to preserve to 
them their value.
Students can readily appreciate the increased value which will thus come to 
them, and we trust they will also appreciate the fact that they must themselves 
contribute to so desirable an end.

LITERARY SOCIETIES.
There are connected with the school three literary societies--Philomathean, 
Senior and Zetosophian. In these societies literary exercises, consisting of 
readings, declamations, essays, orations, debates, etc., are held weekly. The 
membership of these societies consist of the more advanced pupils of the 
school.
Students not belonging to any of the societies are organized into rhetorical 
classes, which are under the immediate supervision of members of the faculty. 
The exercises of these classes are similar to those of the societies. The societies 
are under the supervision of members of the faculty. The work of the societies 
and rhetorical classes is a part of the regular school duties.
It will be observed that these societies differ from the ordinary literary societies 
of colleges in that they are under the control of the faculty, and their work 
constitutes a part of the regular exercises of the school. This arrangement is 
adopted because it is believed that the training to be obtained thereby is of the 
greatest importance to the student.
Aside from public speaking, the ability to express one's self aptly and 
impressively is an accomplishment without which no teacher can conduct his 
duties in the school room with the greatest efficiency. For the sake, therefore, 
of being able to conduct the business of teaching with best results, as well as to 
offer to their pupils an example worthy of imitation, the Normal students are 
expected to avail themselves to the fullest extent of the opportunities offered in 
these societies for acquiring the habit of speaking creditably. Neither the 
opportunity nor the conditions will probably ever again be so favorable for 
cultivating this art Students are admitted to these societies by permission of the 
president of the school upon the recommendation of the leader of one of the 
rhetorical classes.

MEDALS.
R. M. RINGO PRIZE MEDAL.--For the delivery of the best original oration, R. M. 
Ringo, Treasurer of the Board of Regents, awards annually a $20.00 gold medal. 
Contestants confined to the three and four years' classes are to be elected by 
the Literary Societies, subject to the approval of the faculty. The number of 
contestants is determined by the faculty.
WM. T. BAIRD PRIZE MEDAL.--For the best declamation, Mr. Wm. T. Baird, Ex-
Treasurer of the Board of Regents, annually awards a $15.00 gold medal. 
Contestants confined to the young ladies of the school in studies below the "B" 
class and to be selected by the Literary Societies, subject to the approval of the 
faculty.

(Page 10)

10	ANNUAL CATALOGUE

 
F. A. SWANGER PRIZE MEDAL.-F. A. Swanger, President of Idaho State Normal 
School, will award a $15.00 gold medal for the best declamation given by a 
young man of the school in studies below the "B" class. The method of selecting 
the contestants and the time of holding the contest will be determined by the 
Faculty.

Unabridged Dictionary to the student maintaining the highest grade in spelling 
during twenty weeks of the year. The manner of determining the same to be 
fixed by the faculty.

faculty.

LIBRARIES.
1. A general library which contains a considerable number of standard works of 
science, poetry, biography, fiction, general literature, and history. These books 
are purchases mainly with money raised by the efforts of members of the 
faculty and the students in giving entertainments, etc.
2. A reference library, in whcih are kept various kinds of reports, encyclopedias, 
dictionaries, and text-books. 
3. A professional library is kept in the president's room, and is designed to 
contain such books and reports as may aid teachers in their progession.
These libraries are free to all students, and are found to be valuable helps. No 
efforts will be spared to increase these libraries until they shall reach a 
magnitude commensurate in every respect with the needs of the school.

READING ROOM. 
In addition to the above mentioned libraries, many of the leading current 
publications, monthlies, weeklies and dailies may be read by the students. 

SCHOOL OFFICERS.
We invite school officers and all friends of public instruction to assist us by 
advising those who are earnestly striving to make themselves good teachers, to 
enter some of the classes of the school. It may, however, in all kindness, be 
suggested that none be recommended who are not physically, mentally and 
morally fitted to become teachers of the public schools. A cordial invitation is 
extended to the teachers of the public schools of the state to spend as much of 
their time with us as they can use pleasantly and profitably. 

IMPORTANT TO STUDENTS.
Expenses from $25.00 to $45.00 per term.-This is the total cost of board, light, 
fuel, books and incidental fee for a term of ten weeks. 
Boarding costs from $2.50 to $3.00 per week.-This includes furnished room, 
light and fuel. Good homes in private families can always be secured. 
Club and self-boarding cost from $1.00 to $2.00 per week.-For this purpose 
either furnished or unfurnished rooms can always be secured at reasonable

(Page 11)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  11

Tuition free; incidental fee $5.00 per term of ten weeks, or $8.00 for twenty 
weeks. No other fees whatever are required by the institution. The payment of 
the incidental fee to the treasurer secures for the student a permit, which he 
must have recorded before entering any class. In no case will the incidental fee 
be refunded.
Books at from 10 to 25 per cent. off. New books needed can be purchased from 
dealers at these rates. Students should bring with them all their text-books, as 
they may be needed for reference.
Our fifty daily recitations accommodate all. Students prepared to enter, 
however advanced or however backward, will find classes to suit them.
Grades made at county institutes and commissioners' examinations are not 
accepted for advanced standing.
Students may enter at any time, but all are urged to be present at the beginning 
of the year, or as soon thereafter as possible. Enter at the beginning of a term.
Students are cordially welcomed. The teachers and the students will welcome 
you to the Normal. You will find, not strangers, but a band of brothers and 
sisters. Our citizens will honor and respect you. They will receive you into their 
families, their Sunday Schools and their churches. All will contribute to make 
your stay with us as pleasant as possible. Confident that you will be pleased 
with the Normal School, you are earnestly invited to come and enjoy its 
advantages.
Persons wishing to engage board in advance should address Prof. B. P. Gentry, 
Kirksville, Missouri, stating the price per week they wish to pay, and all 
arrangements will be made.
Ladies coming alone will be met at the depot, and boarding places found for 
them, if they will send a postal card addressed to the president, or to "State 
Normal School, Kirksville, Missouri," making this request.

MORAL INFLUENCE.
Most of the religious denominations of the west are represented here. Their 
Sunday Schools and churches extend a cordial welcome to the students. The 
students board in the families of our best citizens. The resident ministers visit 
the Normal weekly, and do all in their power to assist in maintaining the morals 
of the school, and in making the stay of students pleasant. There are no saloons 
in the city of Kirksville.

GENERAL REGULATIONS.
All students are expected to comply with the following, and such other 
requirements as the Board of Regents and Faculty may from time to time make

in getting a knowledge of the subjects to which they relate.

LABORATORIES.
The school also possesses chemical and physical laboratories, equipped for 
individual work, and supplied with the apparatus and other requisites for 
successful chemical drill and experiments in physics.

Remarks on Course of Study.
The Elementary Course consists of the first and second years of the Normal 
Course, together with subjects in "G" and "H" classes.
The Advanced Course comprehends four years, and includes all the work 
prescribed in the tabulated course.
To complete either course, a student must pass a satisfactory final examination 
on each subject prescribed therein. He must pursue in class all professional 
subjects, and take the required amount of practice and criticism.
Students completing the Elementary Course receive the Regent's certificate, 
which is a state certificate, good for two years from date of issue.
Students completing the Advanced Course receive the Normal diploma, with the 
degree of Bachelor of Scientific Didactics.
This diploma is a state certificate of highest grade, being a life certificate.
Students are admitted to any term or year on examinations, except that 
professional subjects must be taken in course as stated above.
All students are earnestly advised when it is possible, to pursue a regular course. 
With less than this they can not expect to be highly successful in the profession 
of teaching; but if, from any cause, it may be necessary for a student to pursue 
an irregular course, he can determine from the program what studies he may 
take and avoid conflict in time of recitation. All students must pursue the 
regular course until they have completed the first year's work, except such as 
hold teachers' certificates or pass a satisfactory examination on these subjects.
Grades furnished from colleges, high schools and academies may be accepted 
by heads of departments after the students presenting the same have shown 
approved proficiency in similar studies and sufficient maturity of mind to be 
admitted to the course for which they apply. This must not be construed to 
include professional subjects.

CONDITIONS OF ADMISSION.
1. Male applicants must be at least sixteen and females fifteen years of age.
2. Those seeking admission for the first time must present satisfactory evidence 
of GOOD MORAL CHARACTER. A letter from the county commissioner, or from

Departments of Instruction.

1.--Department of Philosophy.
2.--Department of Didactics.
3.--Department of English Language and Literature.
4.--Department of Pure and Applied Mathematics.
5.--Department of Science and Natural History.
6.--Department of Latin.
7.--Depepartment of History, Civics, Geography and Elocution.
8.--Department of Art.
9.--Department of Music.
10.--Department of Practice Teaching.
Each department is well organized, and the means of thorough culture are 
amply provided.
While the one central idea -- the education of teachers -- is incorporated into 
every nerve and fibre of its work, it is the aim of the Normal School to be as 
complete in all its appointments as the college. This is a necessity, as few 
Normal graduates Over enter other schools. The teacher requires the highest 
culture. In each department the student is required, not only to master each 
subject, but also to be able to impart instructions to others. 

DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY.
In this department is included Psychology, Ethics and Logic.
The present is an age of specialists Preparation for special lines of work is 
required. The teacher of the present is expected to do good work, but the 
teacher of the future must do better. Routine methods must give way to 
rational ones. The broad notion, that teaching is causing a human being to act, 
must be grasped and practiced. In this notion of teaching, four elements appear: 
HEALTH, SCHOLARSHIP, POWER TO TEACH, and CHARACTER. In the ideal 
teacher there is a happy combination of all these elements.

PSYCHOLOGY AND ETHICS.-Thirty weeks are given to these studies. Only those 
who understand mind and are able to interpret the phenomena of Intellect, 
Sensibilities and Will are thoroughly capable of directing their development. As 
one, to be a skilled artisan, must understand the material on which he works, so 
must one, to be a real teacher, understand child-mind. The ability is attained by 
study, by analyzing our own mental processes, and by carefully observing the 
mental activities of others. Mankind in general understand the great principles 
of right, and have the promptings of conscience to aid them in doing right. Yet 
the philosophy, well formulated and clearly explained, adds to moral strength, 
and enables the teacher the more forcibly to impress moral lessons on the 
youthful mind. Teachers should, not only possess mental strength and moral 
worth, but they should know how to develop these qualities in others, and to 
this end, also, is our class-work directed.

LOGIC.-Fifteen weeks are devoted to the study of this important branch, 
without which the course would be incomplete. The study of the formal laws of 
thought, the construction of arguments, and the art of detecting fallacies, are 
topics of

(Page 18)

18	ANNUAL CATALOGUE

prime importance to the student and teacher. To make logical writers and 
speakers is the object kept constantly in view. The student is taught by this 
"science of sciences" how to classify, analyze, construct, etc.

DEPARTMENT OF DIDACTICS.
As the name indicates, it is the work of this department to train students in the 
arts of teaching and management, and to develop professional skill. These, with 
thorough knowledge, energy and good judgment, largely "distinguish the 
MASTER from the common pedagogue." "There are elegant and skillful ways of 
doing things, and there are awkward and confused ways of doing the same 
things." Economy and efficiency demand the better ways. We want the guiding 
knowledge, which, with practice, will result in power and skill. To this end the 
following professional subjects receive special attention in this department.

SCHOOL ECONOMY AND MANAGEMENT.
POWER TO TEACH.--We aim to quicken and develop this power by appropriate 
stimuli and training. To this end four lines of work are followed: 1. Know the 
child, the being to be educated. 2. Know the teacher, the being who educates. 3. 
Know nature, the being that quickens and stimulates. 4. Know the relation of 
child, teacher and nature.
In the development of educational principles, we use the inductive and 
deductive methods, and endeavor to explain the means and ends of education. 
We consider carefully school requisites, including grounds, building, furniture 
and apparatus; the qualifications, habits, methods, etc., of the teacher; the 
development of the mental, moral and physical powers of the pupil; the proper 
organization and classification of schools; how to study and how to recite; 
exercise, recreation and rest; school offenses and their remedies; school 
hygiene; school reports, etc., as well as a careful examination into the mistakes 
in aim, management, discipline, methods and moral training frequently made by 
teachers. All topics in the lessons will be formulated and explained, while in the 
tests and drill, the pupils will be required, not only to recite accurately, but also 
to make a full tabulation of the subjects. The practical application of the true 
principles of good economy and management will be as thoroughly, impressed 
on the minds of the pupils as the circumstances will permit.

METHODS.
As a knowledge of the elements of Psychology is necessary to skill in mental 
training, a preparatory course of ten weeks' instruction is given in that subject, 
then the pupils are ready to enter upon the scientific study of methods. Ten 
weeks in the Elementary Course and twenty weeks in the Advanced Course are 
used in presenting to the pupils the various methods of teaching different 
subjects. The

(Page 19)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  19

work is illustrated in class as fully as possible, and each topic explained from the 
standpoints both of teacher and pupil. School aims, organization, classification, 
illustrative teaching, preparatory training, class examination, discipline, aims, 
etc., are successively considered, that the pupil may know both what to do, and 
how to do, when he enters the school room as a teacher.

HISTORY AND PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION.
The ancient systems of education of Egypt, China, India and Persia are 
examined. Coming to more reliable records, we trace the history of educators, 
the principles they evolved, and the effects of their work on the different 
nations. This gives a fair idea of the civilization and education of Greece, as set 
forth by Lycurgus, Pythagoras, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, etc.; of Rome, as set 
forth by Cato, Cicero, Seneca, Quintilian, etc. The excellencies and defects of 
their systems are as carefully pointed out as possible. The history of Saracenic 
education is to be followed by a careful study of the work and principles of the 
great European Innovators and these are supplemented by the consideration of 
the efforts of English and American educators in the development of the 
educational systems of the present.
GRADED SCHOOLS, INSTITUTE WORK, ETC.--While no efforts are spared to 
emphasize the preparation for work in the country school, the elevation of 
which is the grandest work of the age and the peculiar mission of the Normal 
School, the classification, gradation and management of graded schools, is given 
special attention, that teachers may be fitted for the best positions as assistants, 
principals and superintendents. The character and work of real Teachers' 
Institutes are clearly given, so that our graduates are prepared for work in 
instructing and conducting the same.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH.
In the work of this department the aim is judiciously to combine the theoretical 
and the practical. Theory alone is good, but theory embodied in practice is 
better. It is well to be able to analyze a sentence, but to be able at the same 
time to make a correct use of the sentence is a more practical achievement.
The department comprises a course of study in Grammar, Etymology, 
Orthography, Orthoepy, Composition, English Literature and Rhetoric.
GRAMMAR.--Two terms are devoted to this study, in which the student is 
instructed in the essentials of the study, special attention being paid to the 
construction of the sentence. A thorough knowledge of formal Grammar is 
thought desirable, if not indispensable, before the student proceeds with the 
study of Rhetoric and Literature.
RHETORIC.--This is taken up in the second year of the course, and comprehends 
the theory of discourse as well as abundant practice in composition.
LITERATURE.--Two and one half terms are given to this study; one in the second 
year, and one and one half in the fourth. The first term is given to the study of 
the chief writers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, with some 
attention to the facts concerning their lives. In the senior year the more difficult 
authors, beginning with Bacon and Shakespeare are taken up, and history of the 
literature

(Page 20)

20	ANNUAL CATALOGUE

of the language is studied with more minuteness. The purpose of the whole 
course is to train the student to express his thoughts with clearness and force 
and lead him to some appreciation of the excellencies of the English classics. 
Students are encouraged to read choice works outside the school-room. Good 
books contain fountains of inspiration, and only by drinking deep can we hope 
to attain the highest culture or reach the richest stores of knowledge. "It is 
impossible to approach the light without drawing some faint coloring from it, or 
to remain long among precious odors without bearing away with us some 
position of fragrance."
ETYMOLOGY.--Word analysis receives special attention. The analysis, 
derivation, formation, history and definitions of words are considered.
ORTHOEPY.--Letters, sounds, vowels and consonants. Table of vowels, giving 
name and value of each. Consonant skeleton, articulation, pronunciation, 
enunciation, substitutes. Difference between vowels and consonants. Phonic, 
analysis. Rules of pronunciation.

DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS.
Education comprises all those influences that go to form character. Character is 
the sum of qualities of the mind, soul and body, which give individuality. 
Individuality moves the world; parrotry simply amuses the idle crowd. To think 
thoughts is to be individual; that the active individual may think aright he should 
be able to discern truth and winnow it from the chaff of error. To discover truth 
and predict sequence, man must be a logical thinker.
The chief purpose of mathematics in a school curriculum is to train to logical 
deductive reasoning, and, our purpose is not so much skill as power. 
The methods of the department in presenting the subjects are the natural out-
growth of the spirit of the subjects taught, and are neither stereotyped nor 
machine, but every opportunity is afforded for the development of the powers, 
hence the individuality of each student. Grade-getting is discouraged, power-
getting encouraged. These principles have controlled in the establishment of the 
course of mathematics for this Normal.
ARITHMETIC is taught one year. "H" class beginning with common fractions, "G" 
class completing the subject, including the metric system. The instruction 
combines mental and written work and the student is conducted by a process of 
analysis to the rule. Examples are to be solved, not by stereotyped rules and set 
formulae, but by the application of universal principles underlying the subject.
ALGEBRA continues sixty weeks. Special attention given 10 factoring. The 
subject is taught through Quadratics in the Elementary Course; and in the Senior 
year, Theory of Exponents, Binomial Theorem, Ratio and Proportion, 
Progressions, Logarithms and Series are presented.
GEOMETRY is begun in the "D" class, and the first three books of Plane 
Geometry are completed in the Elementary Course. Solid Geometry is 
completed during the Junior year. The demonstration of original exercises forms 
a large part of the work required.

(Page 21)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  21

TRIGONOMETRY, plane and spherical, is taught in the Junior year. Some of the 
applications of the subject to surveying are included in this course of twenty 
weeks.
PHYSICS is taught one year; Elementary Physics "C," and Advanced Physics in the 
Junior class. The students are taken into a well equipped laboratory, and 
experiments are performed under the direction of the teacher.
ASTRONOMY is given twenty weeks in the Senior year. This course is intended 
to furnish a general knowledge of Astronomy including a brief account of its 
history. For the most part it will be non-mathematical, although some 
knowledge of Trigonometry is desirable. The department is supplied with a 
telescope of moderate power.
Note.--Students must have a grade on "H" Arithmetic before entering- Algebra, 
also on "F" Algebra before entering Geometry

DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE AND NATURAL HISTORY.
PHYSIOLOGY.--The main facts in Anatomy are developed; the technical terms in 
common use are drilled upon and illustrated by means of skeletons, models, 
charts and dissections before the class. Students are led to explain the uses of 
parts, and to see how they are adapted to their various uses. The care of the 
body, the consideration of emergencies, and how to meet them, and the effects 
of alcohol on the system, are especially dwelt upon. The reasons for effects of 
carelessness on the body are emphasized.
ZOOLOGY.--No student is admitted to Zoology who has not already studied 
Physiology. The character of the work is similar to that in Physiology, except that 
the other animals than man are Considered. The structure of the various groups 
is illustrated by well selected material, and the adaptation of parts to habits is 
dwelt upon. Comparison of species and groups baked upon the study of 
Structural Zoology leads to the development of ideas of classification.
BOTANY.--The study of plant structure from abundant material during the first 
ten weeks of the Spring Term, prepares thoroughly for the later study and 
description of plants during the last ten weeks. The students of this class have 
access to the large school collection.
GEOLOGY.--This course is opened in the Spring Term, especially for members of 
the "A" class, in whose course it forms the culmination of their scientific study.A 
previous study of Botany and Zoology, as well as Physical Geography, Physics 
and Chemistry is a prerequisite in this course.
The large school collection of minerals; rocks and fossils furnishes abundant 
material for illustration.
CHEMISTRY.--This subject is developed largely by experimental work, 
performed by the Students themselves in a laboratory well equipped for the 
work. The pupils are encouraged to seek information from nature as well as 
from books. The training of the mind, and the acquirement of facility in finding 
out truths for themselves is sought, rather than the memorizing of formulas and 
reactions. The fact that some things must be committed to memory is not 
overlooked, but.an effort is made to

(Page 22)

22	ANNUAL CATALOGUE

give only a just proportion of attention to that work. The general laws of 
chemical reaction are first studied, then the properties and important 
compounds of a few leading elements. By comparison the knowledge of the 
student is then extended to some of the less important elements and their 
compounds.
PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY.--A course of twenty weeks is given in this subject. The 
earth is considered first as a member of the solar system; then as a great 
individual organization. The various phenomena which take place on and near 
its surface, their causes and consequences, the laws governing them, and their 
mutual relations, are duly investigated. Attention is given to the natural 
divisions of land, water, geological structure, volcanoes, earthquakes, rivers, 
lakes, oceanic and atmospheric movements, rainfall, etc. The classification is 
devoted to the physical features of the United States.

DEPARTMENT OF LATIN.

FIRST YEAR.
First Term.--1. Beginner's Latin Book, to page 114. 2. Roman method of 
pronunciation is used throughout. 3. Inflections of nouns, adjectives and verbs.
4. The Latin exercises are translated from the books and are also pronounced by 
the teacher and translated from hearing. 5. All exercises of English into Latin 
must be carefully written in blank books, after they have been recited to the 
teacher. 6. The colloquia are both read and recited orally. 7. All constructions in 
the exercises of Latin into English are explained by referring them to the rules of 
syntax.
Second Term.--1. Beginner's Latin Book completed. 2. The same methods as to 
pronunciation, inflections, exercises, colloquia and Constructions, employed 
first term, are continued. 3. The difficulties of the adjunctive mode, etc., in the 
last part of the books are not omitted.
SECOND YEAR.
First Term.--1. Caesar's Commentaries De Bello Gallico as far as chapter ten of 
second book, are read. 2. Prose composition is recited in connection with the. 
reading lesson. The composition lessons are carefully written in blank books. 3. 
Regular lessons from the grammar are recited.
Second Term.--1. Virgil is read from the beginning of the AEneid to the middle 
of the second book. Enough scanning is done to familiarize the pupils with the 
structure of the verb, etc. 3. Prose Composition. 4. Grammar lessons on all days 
except when composition is recited. 5. Grecian and Roman mythology is taught 
incidentally in connection with the reading in Virgil. 6. The attention of pupils is 
called by the teacher to English classics which throw light upon the Latin being 
read.
THIRD YEAR.
First Term.--1. Cicero's Orations are read. 2. Carefulness in translating into good 
English and in selecting best equivalent in English for Cicero's thought is sought. 
3. Composition is concluded. 4. Grammar reviewed.

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT. 23

DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY, CIVICS, GEOGRAPHY, AND ELOCUTION.
ELOCUTION.-Physical Training.--Basis for Pantomime. "A sound mind in a sound 
body."--The basis of all true expression.
1. Light Gymnastics.
2. AEsthetic Gymnastics (Delsarte Drills).
Objects: (a) Health, Vigor, Tone, (b) To attain Ease, Precision, and Harmony in 
Action, (c) To present the body in true Technical and Expressive form.
II. Respiration.--Basis for Vocal Expression. "Through the arches of respiration 
walks the soul."
III. The Production of Voice.--Basis for Vital and Emotive Expression.
Objects: (a) To produce pleasing, musical, and cultivated tones, (b) To avoid 
harshness, and especially loudness, (e) To produce the form of the carrying 
voice.
IV. Articulation.--Basis for Mental Expression. "All speech is made up of 
Articulation.--Spencer.
V. Analysis.--Preparation for Expression.
Object: To find the complete thought and verbing contained in the sentence, 
and to determine the technical forms that give art-value. Impression must 
precede expression. The student must have before he can give.
VI. Synthetic Expression.--What the mind has analyzed, It tries to produce in 
objective or expressive forms. Hence we hope to attain the ability of 
presentative in art-form, of the three natures of man, or Of the three states of 
his soul--the Vital, Mental, and Emotive--by means of voice, pantomime and 
articulate speech.
HISTORY, CIVICS AND GEOGRAPHY.--In the department of History and Civics, it 
is aimed:
1. To teach the pupil to think for himself, by dealing with real things: to train 
him to see the fact and catch the spirit of what he reads: to judge of the 
character and influence of men and acts, and to see the relation of cause and 
effect in historical events.
2. To give him a sympathetic appreciation of the development of our American 
life, character, and government.
3. To train him for citizenship and to incite him to further reading and 
investigation.
GEOGRAPHY.-One term is devoted to the study of Descriptive Geography. It is 
aimed to invest its details with a living and intelligent interest, and a practical 
utility. Maps, map drawing, globes, and other requisites to a thorough 
acquaintance with the Subject, are employed.

DEPARTMENT OF ART.
DRAWING.--Drawing is not simply an ornamental study or a mere 
accomplishment. It is full of direct and practical results. It is also a most 
beneficial training, a help to other studies, a powerful educator. The object is to 
develop the minds of our pupils; to direct their habits of thinking; to cultivate 
their observation and fac-

(Page 24)

24	ANNUAL CATALOGUE

ulties, such as memory, attention, accuracy, neatness, etc. The course of study 
consists of Inventive, Free-hand and Mathematical Drawing for twenty weeks. A 
term of ten weeks is devoted to the science and art of Perspective.
BOOKKEEPING.--The subjects of Single Entry and Double Entry Bookkeeping are 
thoroughly explained and illustrated. Each student is required to write several 
sets, including besides the principal books, various auxiliary books and business 
papers. The practice is cultivated until he is familiar with the entries and 
documents necessary for all ordinary transactions. This course is especially 
useful to those who intend to be teachers, as well as to those preparing for 
other pursuits.
PENMANSHIP.--Elements of letters, with practice, capitals, copy-writing, 
paragraphing, etc. The object is to form a handwriting at once rapid, legible and 
compact, and frequent practice is our chief dependence.
CALISTHENICS.--Calisthenic exercises occupy twenty minutes daily. Especial 
care is given to correct position, and to precision and promptness of action in 
connection with music. The utility of calisthenic exercise as a means of physical 
development and training, and of securing vigorous health under the constant 
strain of student life, is now generally acknowledged. Such exercises are used as 
can be
practiced by teachers in schools without the usual apparatus.

DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC.
VOCAL.--As may be seen from the course of study, vocal music has relatively a 
large place in the curriculum of the school, and not only is it recommended, but 
required that all students have sufficient knowledge of the elements of the 
subject, and the theory and practice of teaching it, to enable them to teach the 
same successfully in the public schools of the state.
The importance given to this subject is only proportionate to its real value. Not 
only does singing rank deservedly high among the arts, being second to none in 
the wide reach of its capacity to impart pleasure, but the training of the voice in 
the assiduous study and practice of vocal music, does much to cultivate it with 
reference to other uses.
All human history goes to show that vocal music has always held a very high 
place in the appreciation of the race. This appreciation has not only not lost its 
strength, but has grown stronger with the growth of civilization. It is not 
contemplated that thorough training of the voice can be given in the Normal 
Course, but it is hoped that students will both form a taste for vocal music, 
become thoroughly grounded in the elements, and be able to teach it both in 
theory and practice.
It is also believed that assiduous practice in the art of controlling and 
modulating the voice will be found highly beneficial in public speaking as well as 
in conversation, and at the same time a substantial aid to the student in 
mastering the art of Elocution.

(Page 25)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  25

Following is a brief outline of the course of study to be pursued:
CLASS "G"--ELEMENTARY GRADE.-PART ONE.
1. Exercises for training the ear.
2. Exercises for training the eye.
3. Exercises for training the eye and the ear at the same time.
4. To sing simple exercises by rote, followed by easy blackboard lessons.
5. Beginning work, in the text books, from charts and graded blackboard lessons 
up to the subject of transposition.
CLASS "C"-ELEMENTARY GRADE.-PART TWO.
This grade will begin, and continue the work as follows: 
1. Reading music in the key of "C" major in one, two, three and four parts.
2. The analysis of the major scale.
3. The general study of the rudiments of vocal music, transportation by fourths 
and fifths, keys, signatures, etc.
4. The study and analysis of both the Harmonic and Melodic Minor scales.
5. A brief, yet practical, study of intervals and their inversions.
6. A thorough practice in singing songs and choruses in the major and minor 
keys, and the study of methods for teaching vocal music in the public schools. 
CLASS "A"-ADVANCED GRADE.
The advanced grade will consist of the following graded courses in Theory and 
Practice.
1. Advanced practice in singing glees, choruses and part songs from the masters, 
and some of our best American composers.
2. A practical study of the beginning fundamental principles of harmony, and the 
necessity of the same to the more intelligent and successful teacher.
3. A short and comprehensive study of the beginning of modulation and the 
rules for studying the same.
4. Methods of teaching and presenting the different grades in the public 
schools. General suggestions for proper breathing and use of the voice will be 
given in all grades from standard authorities.
INSTRUMENTAL.--Although instrumental music forms no part of the regular 
curriculum of the school, opportunities are offered for the study of Piano, 
Organ, Voice Culture, etc., under the best instruction, at moderate cost.

Model and Training Department.

DESIGN.
Many who prove themselves to be good students, show marked weakness when 
called upon to impart their information to others. It is the business of this 
department to test and strengthen the teacher in his work.

PREPARATION NECESSARY FOR PRACTICE TEACHING.
It is becoming more and more obvious every day that this branch of Normal 
School Work should be the last part of the course, and that no one should be 
given work in this department who has not previously passed examination on 
the professional subjects. Students who have had no experience are required to 
go through a course of "observing" before being allowed to take charge of a 
class. The Model School is essentially a Practice School--a place where students 
can test methods already studied. The children are simply a means to an end, 
and, in justice to them, pupil-teachers must be prepared to do the work well, 
realizing that unless it is a benefit to the children it is not a benefit to the 
teacher.

BASIS OF GRADING.
For the instruction of both teachers and critics the following points are made a 
basis upon which they are graded: 1. Preparation. 2. Recitation. 3. Neatness. 4. 
Government. 5. Manner.

COURSE OF STUDY.
It is intended that the course of study in the different classes in the school shall 
furnish the means of practical illustration of the methods which should be 
familiar to every true teacher, whether filling a position in a Primary, 
Intermediate, or Grammar School. For a child to complete the course requires a 
period of eight years, or approximately the same as that of the average graded 
public school.

TEACHERS' MEETINGS.
These are held every Thursday afternoon, in which critics' reports are read, 
mistakes pointed out and the work for the following week discussed. 
Occasionally classes from the Model School are taught by student teachers in 
the presence of the entire force of teachers, the Principal, and such visiting 
members of the Faculty as may be present. This exercise is, as far as possible, a 
sample of the ordinary recitation, or, if allowed to differ from that, it is in order 
to illustrate more fully some principle or method considered.
As a subdivision of the regular teachers' meetings, teachers are required to 
meet in their respective grades, where such questions as concern the teachers 
of that particular grade are discussed by members present. These sub-meetings 
are considered to be quite as beneficial to the student-teacher as the general 
meeting.

(Page 27)

STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, FIRST DISTRICT.  27

ACTUAL PRACTICE.
The most valuable feature of this department is the actual practice which 
students have in conducting classes in the various grades and subjects. No other 
test will so satisfactorily show whether a young man or a young woman is sure 
to be a good teacher. Successful work as a student, brilliant and interesting 
recitations in the class-room, even the power of analyzing and explaining 
difficult subjects so the other members of the class understand as never before-
all these fail to prove power for satisfactory discipline and teaching. No amount 
of talking about how the work should be done and seeing how it is done, can 
give the strength which comes from actual doing. The teachers who go from this 
department to take charge of schools of their own, go with an experimental 
knowledge of what difficulties are to be met and how to meet them; they go 
about their work with a self-possession which can come only from a successful 
experience. Care is taken in this department to lead the teachers to control their 
classes without feeling dependent on the aid of any one in general charge of the 
work. They, in the main, settle their own difficulties in discipline and instruction, 
and meet the responsibilities which come to a teacher in his own school.
An extended inquiry shows that departments of this kind continue to grow in 
popularity in the United States, and that more than two-third of all distinctly 
Normal schools in this country have now introduced practice-teaching as a 
regular part of their course.
