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."
