Zeisloft c 90 Meeting of Normal Principals. The subject of ownership of nor mal school property and the State's relation to it was discussed last Friday by the State Normal School principals, in a conference with Superintendent of Public Instruc tion, N. C. Schaeffer. The princi pals, after exchanging views and discussing recent statements on the subject, referred it to a committee to report in March. The subjects of change in in struction and methods of final ex amination were also laid over. Dr. D. J. Waller, of the local Normal, was present at the session. SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. Continued from page 5 many 01 our citizen into thinking that Pennsylvania sets apart a larger proportion of the State reve nues for school purposes than any other State in the Union. This thought is far from true, if account is taken of the permanent revenues for educational purposes. "New Jersey does not make large school appropriations nt e .eh session of the Legislature, but h;r fixed school revenues from other than local sources make a far bet ter per capita showing than Penn sylvania's large biennial school ap propriation. In Indiana the total State tax levy is .333,5, out of which .1635, or nearly half, is set apart for education. In Minnesota about one third of the State reve nue, counting funds derived from school lands and the permanent fund, is devoted to educational pur poses. In Michigan the elementary school fund yields a revenue of S, 000,000, which is twice tiie amount raised by local taxation. "The amendment to the 13th section of the medical act will help to stimulate secondary education. Heretofore a common school educa tion was all the training which the law required in the way of prelimi nary education for the study of medicine. The. new law raises the requirement to the completion of a four years' high school course or its equivalent. "A similar advance has been made in the requirements for the study of law, dentistry and phar macy. The time has come whet; not only the professions, but all the other learned vocations, rre closed against those who do not go beyond the elementary grades in city and borough schools, or beyond the ungraded schools in our rural dis tricts. In these requirements Penn sylvania is simply following in the footsteps of her sister States. DECREASU IN MALE TEACHERS. "The following table shows the gradual decrease in the number of male teachers and the rapid increase in the number of women who teach in the public schools: Male Female 1900 93:14 iU.WMi 1001 9194 20,850 BIO'J 8585 22,05.5 l!HJ3 8243 23,2Hi 11104 82.50 23,fU9 BMW 802S 24,324 190(4 774 2-5.357 1907 759.5 25,8.54 1908 7488 20,52.5 1909. 7935 20,771 "This tendency should be view ed with alarm, because there is a time in the life of the average boy when he needs the influence ot the masculine mind to inspire him with the sense of something to be achiev ed. For certain grades women are better teachers than men, but in the higher grades and in the un graded schools the average boy pre fers a male teacher. INDUSTRIAL TRAINING. "In view of th decline of the apprentice system, the feeling is growing stronger that the schools should fit for bread winning, and hence should train the pup ils for industrial life. The num ber of trades that can be and are taught in the public schools is nec essarily small. Most of the pupils leave school at 14 to go to work. Previous to the fourteeth year the child is too young to learn a trade. The tools are too heavy; the toil too severe for the strength of the boy. Bricklaying, carpentering and sim ilar trades have few applicants, most boys prefer electrical engineer ing. As soon as they find difficulty in mastering engineering problems, they are willing to learn electric wiring and processes which belong to a handicraft. "The public school inspires social ambitions which predispose the girl to work, if she must work, in a fac tory or at a typewriter, in prefer ence to entering domestic service. TIid boy wishes au occupation that will not soil his hands or his clothes. He does not wish a job, but a posi tion with a salary attached. Thus the tratle school finds few candi dates for many of the most useful handicrafts. Experiments in trade schools maintained by taxation should be made with extreme care; otherwise there will be a disastrous reaction. "Much has been said in favor of the introduction of agriculture into the public schools. Eloquent ad vocates claim that every youth should learn how to cultivate a gar den, how to keep a cow, how to manage a poultry yard, because these are possible to most families outside of the cities and large bor oughs. What can the school do with a cow ? How can a poultry yard be kept on school ground ? YVuo can run a garden during the winter months, , when the schools are in session ? "The care of the sick, the con version of sinners, the administra tion of law, are problems of the community, but to shy their solu tion at the teacher is to expect impossibilities."
