THE SCRANTON TRIBUNE-SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1900. PLEASING CHANGE . iN THE CONTEST A Substitute for the Sec ond Special Re ward. BLOOMSBURG STATE NORMAL SCHOOL A Three-Years' Scholarship, Includ ing All Expenses Winner to Have Choice of the Regular Nor mal Course or a College Prepara tory Course A More Expensive Reward, but It Meets a Popular Demand Pull Description of the Bloomsburg School Results of the Week In The Tribune's Educa tional Contest Only Two Weeks Before the Close. The Tribune announces a chrtnfp this morning, In connection with Its IMuca tlonal Contest, that cannot fall to meet tlio approval of every contestant. This change has been In contemplation for a long time, and wan consummated Borne weeks nco, but the formal an nouncement hns been withheld pending the receipt of Illustrations and descrip tive matter. These were received yes terday and The Tribune this mornlnu presents an exhaustive description of NORMAL Showing a Portion the Hloomsbuig State Normal school, which Is substituted for the second spe cl.il lew aid the Keystone aendemv The toward embraces a full three eius' couise, Including tuition, board, furnished room, heat, lnundiy nnd nil necessary books, costing 200 each year, or $00 for the full course, making Its value $Jo gi eater than that of the spe cial icward for which It was substitut ed. In addition the contestant who Is fortunate enough to secure this reward wilt liae the choice of the prcparatoiy collegiate course, or the regular three year normal course. These courses are listed in the catalogue of the school at $190 a year, but The Tribune, wish ing to cover the entlie expense, nr uuiged to pay $10 a year in addition, or a total of $200 a year, and this In cludes the books. Reason for the Change. A number of contestants nnd othets hae fiom tlmo to time pointed out the fact that the two ilrst special re wards were very similar, and suggest cd that it would be better if h normal couise was offered. With this object In lew Tho Tribune endeavored to make arrangements for such a course nnd wiib eminently successful ap the announcement and description here with demonstrates. This Is the only Instance wheie criti cism of the tewnrds has reached the eais of The Tribune, nnd It Is glad t be able to make the change, believing that all contestants will be better pleased. The Tribune has signed con tracts for the scholaishln here offered as well ns for all the other rewards and no fuither changes are possible, although It is very evident that the full list will now meet the approval of .01, und that no other substitutions will be desired. Bloomsburg State Normal School. The school selected by The Tribune) for one of the leading special Towards In Its IMucatlnnal Contest. Is located In the valley of tho Susqtiehonnn, mid wny In tho course of that hlstoilo stream. The Hloomsburg Literal y In stitute nncl State Normal School has In recent ears attracted much atten tion nnd grown gieatly In public favor. Its buildings, grounds nnd general equipment probably could not bo ie placed for half a million dollais. Bloomsburg, Pa., where the school Is located, Is n pleasant town of some 8.000 people, situated near tho point where the waters of the Susnuehanna nre Joined by those of Fishing craelc, ft stream of sufficient size to be called a river. Clusteilng hills surround tho town on all sides, and grand old moun tains lift their distance-blued summits not many miles away. "Beautiful for Situation." You do not need to ask your way to the "Normal" In Bloomsburg. The buildings may be seen In any part of that community, and tho pilnclpal meet of tho town leads directly up Normal hill to tho ery front door of the school, occupying, ns It does, a position a hundred feet above the town, It Is pf the town and yet apart fiom It, a community of something more than half a thousand souls. We quote the following from "The National Kdu cat,or," one of the leading educational papers of the state: "The expression of the psalmist, 'beautiful for situation,' may well bo applied to this school. We may confi dently assert that there Is not another Normal school in the country, and for that matter, no other Institution of learning, that can surpass this one for magnificence of situation." The school was founded In 1S67 as the Tfloomsburg Literary Institute, and i jrru) ri iiiiii . u-ir.in'i'H i.iii J . : ilvi ' tr . ------ ' i. ririi .. r ui it ii ih r lit. i NtJuSWPii later, In ISC, chartered as one of the Normal schools of the state. It has pffsod through the vicissitudes and changes familiar to all Normal schools In I'onnsilvnnln, and now stands ns one of the largest, best equipped and most representative of Pennsylvania's schools; a Rchool of which the stnto of whose educatlonnl system It Is both a product and n part, may well be proud. The Buildings. The school buildings are visible for a considerable distance up and down the valley, (portions of two nre shown in the accompanying illustration of Normal cyclers), nnd, while not by any means pretentious, nre neat and extremely well adapted for their pur- , Iue. Xliu unijliuil uuilillllK lurinn uui a very small portion of the immense pile of brick nnd stone on Normal hill. Some Idea of the size of the buildings may be gained from the fact that there are nearly three-fourths of a mile of corridor therein, and over 200 rooms for tho use of students only. Among them may be mentioned in stitute hall with Its siv large class rooms, on the first floor, nnd the Au ditorium, on thi second lloor, sentlng over 1,000; tho Model School building, ! containing twenty-six rooms; the four-story dormitory, 162x75 feet, with Its east wing extension, 101x10 feet, and Its north wing, 130x40 feet. These dnrmltorks can accommodate boarding students. BOO i The employes' dormitory is a three story building. In the basement of which Is the lnundiy, while on the floor above the employes hao their rooms nnu on the upper floor Is nn Infirmary, with arrangements for lso- latlng cases of contagious diseases ' from all students 'though this pro- i vision has been In existence three , years, fo excellent has been the state CYCLERS. of College Buildings. of health In the school, that the flimary has never been used. In- A Model Gymnasium. The gymnasium coeis an aiea of over 4,200 square feet. It has been fitted up with tho best appaiatus made, Is complete in Its equipment, and from the flist took its place among tho beit gymnasiums In Ameiica. It has a run ning gnlleiy. baths and lockers for gliis and boys, nnd eor convenience that Is usually found In a flist-class "gym." A competent dliector and two rthslst ints make physical examinations, pie scilbe propei exeiclse for each student, and conduct the class work. As might be expected, the school stands vei-y high In athletics. Tire foot ball, base ball and basket ball teams tank among the college tennis, and are rarely de feated. Manifold Advantages. It Is not possible In this attlcle to comment upon all the points of intci est to be obseived. Class rooms, equipped with nil the latest devices to aid both the Instructoi and the pupils; the manual tialnlng loom, that by its results has attiacted national atten tion, the dining rooms, capable of seating neatly 500 persons- the llbr.ny, largo and cniefully selected, and cata logued according to the caid system, the auditorium, capable of seating over 1,000 persons, one of the most beautiful and comfortable audience rooms to b found anywhere: the passenger eleva tor, one of the most valuable Improve ments a boarding school can have the beautiful grove nf thiee ocies the campus, decorated with lloweis anil i&lLjau7iJW53?w JsaBSarii3gtta Jz?wIJ5m1aE5r CrT iMisaaOT fi frM i nil ' I 'MWlplp THE OYANASIUM. with Its thoughtful provision for tho pleasure of the students In tennlf courts and athletic field; a)l these nre here and all deseivc more than men tion. All are adapted to their purpose, all are dally contributing, directly und Indiiectly, to tho cause of education. The Principal. The present principal of the Blooms burg No.-mal school Is J P. Welsh, A. M., Ph. D. He la a man about 40 ysara cf age, Is a graduato of Lafayetti -ol-lege, was for eight years connected with one of the other prominent nor mal schools of the state, nnd was calh-d to take charge of the Bioouisburg school In 1S90. The school ' has beon remarkably prosperous under his administration, doubling in size, both In tho number cf students In attendance, nnl In Its material equipment. Dr. Wlsh Is tho ntithor of a series of English grammars widely used. The Faculty. The trustees of the school realise that It Is the teacher tint makes Iho school, nntf'thev have spand neither pains nor money to secure tedoliCM of successful experience, broad culture, and established Christian character. Again wo quote from the National KJ ucator: "Those who know IT Welsh will conclude, n priori, that no Intellectual ly lamo Instructors need ao ly for sit uiIIoiih In an institution under his management. Ills tcacheri, ll'te him self are all well qualified, wide-awake nnd practical. We witnessed the reci tations under Professors Albert, Noet Ilnir. Wl'bur, Detwller and Cope, nnd were f.irpiited at the manner In whl:h teachers and students acquitted them selves. In the large senior class, for example, consisting of 120 or more, which wo heard recite In several tianches, there was almost perfect recitations. Besides, the ease with which tin students gave their nnnw-'n. irnl the coidlallty observable liptm-cn 'Vin nnd tr.elr lr.stiuctois, w.u rf- matkable. In the chapel, In the reel lat0 and Btudy r00)I1Si nn,i through- ou, .,. ,u , . such nn r 0f ,. ness, politeness and geniality seemed to prevail, that wo could no longer wonder that this school, which has so long, both under Its former principal, cx-Stnte Supeilntendent Waller, and now, for ten years past, under Prin cipal Welsh, nnd his excellent wife, formerly Mtts Alma Sager, attained so great popularity, that students flo.l- thither from oil parts of tho Union. It lo In every sense of the word a homo school A Remnikable Record. The chief work of the school Is the pieparatlon of teacheis for the public schools of the commonwealth. Since me scnooi was nignnizcu, n nus griiu uated oer 1,500 teachers, about 1.200 of these belonging to the last ten yeais. From 00 to 03 per cent, of the Fraduatfs become teachers, ninny un detgtaduates nlso become teachers- peihaps the number equals or exceeds the number of graduates. There has been a total of more than 12,000 per ons educated In whole or In part In the school. Thirty-one states and ter ritories nnd several foreign countries are represented by the list of grftdu- ntes of the school (no record of tho location of under-graduates Is kept), and the present loll of students repre sents twelve states of tho union. Thess figures Indicate both the far-reaching Influence of the school and Its popu larity. The Preparatory Collegiate Depart ment. While nothing Is allowed to Inter fere with tho thorough training of teachers, the school maintains, by special chatter, and according to agreement with the state made nt the time of Its recognition as a. normal school, an excellent college prepara toty department. The leading colleges In the east have In their different classes representatives of the school, numberlnp-. pet haps, jeventy or rriore. while nbout thirty students are now In course of preparation. These col lege and college piepnratory studcnt3 nre young men and women (for tho most patt, graduates of the school), who on account of the progressiva educational spirit of tho school have acquired a thlist for higher attain ments and a desire for higher posi tions In the professions. Prof. Joseph II. Dennis, who hns charge of this department of the school, is a graduate of Ilavorford col lego and holds the chair of Linguagjs, teaching principally Latin, Greek and German. The couise of study pieparn toiy to enteilng college coveis tine eais and Includes the studies usually lequiied at the majority of colleges; but In cae a candidate needs tnoio than Is ptovlded In the regular course, pains aie taken to give him extra tialnlng to enable him to enter any college he may desire. Among the colleges to which stu dents from the school go, are Lafsv ette, University of Pennsylvania, Dick inson, Bucknell, Urslnus, Haverfoid, University of Michigan. Gettysburg. Lehigh, and Princeton, with an occa sional representative at many other Institutions. During last vear the school had seventy-five representatives In the different colleges and medical schools of tho country. Several of the colleges accept students fiom the school without further examination. Course of Study. The tegular course of study for en teilng college Includes. 1. Latin: Cnesai, four books, Clcoro, six orations, Virgil, six bookp. 2. Greek: Anabasis, four books: Iliad, three books. 3 Gieek and Lfttln Prose Composi tion 4 Mathematics Plane and Solid Ge ometry and Trigonometry ." Botany and Physics. Advanced work mny be taken if de sired In Livy, the Odyssey etc. The Music Department In a normal school there are alvvavs large numbers nf .oung men nnd women who desire with their other studies to keep up and Increase their knowledge of music. Vocal music Is one of the required branches of a nor mal school course. It Is to be expect ed, therefore, that a norhial school v.-ould have a music department, but It Is seldom found so thoroughly or ganized and equipped as In the Blooms burg school. A full vocal and a com plete Instrumental course nre laid down, and to those who complete them special ceitiflcates are granted. The department Is In reality a conserva toty. with a full corps of compet ent Instructors.

It Is less than half. The Vocal Department Is In charge of Slgnorlna Dora Combn, a ladv of high literary and musical culture, a native of Florence, Italy, who has had the best musical education to be had In Italy, France, and Geimany, sup plemented by nn extended and suc cessful experience as n teacher In Geneva, Switzerland. She Is ably as sisted by Miss VIda Bowman, who has, also, enjoyed the best musical training to bo had In this country, which has also been supplemented by study abroad. The Instrumental Department is under the supervision of Miss Jesslo Pontius, a young lady of rare musical culture and training, a graduate of one of the leading conservatories of this country. She Is assisted by Mrs. THE TENNIS W. B. Sutliff, who leeelved her train ing nt the New England Conservatory of Music. Lessons on the violin, mandolin, guitar, and other Instruments, can, also, be had under a skillful tenchei. The Discipline. In choosing a school patents are es pecially anxious to know what kind of moial influences thlr .ions and daugh teis are to meet. The Bloomsburg school has an enviable leputatlon fo" being a safe place for the young. Tho system of discipline used 's not pre ventive, hedged about by a net-work of rules and regulations holding out temptations to escapades bnd bi.li terousness, but is rational and has tor its object character-building, lte strlctlons when necessary nie placed on the few who need them. Tho watch woid of the authorities Is: "There Is no wrong-doing when the heart Is right." IJvery Influence Is for the pur pose of "creating right thoughts and renewing a right spirit within." Gen tlemanly and lady-!lke conduct are matters of necessity and no student Is allowed to remain !n the school who does not show by his demotion to woik and his behavior that he Is In earnest in his efforts to get nn education. The Tribune's Choice. It may be readily seen, therefore, why Tho Tribune seleoted a scholar ship at the Bloomsburg school when It 'determined to purchase one to offer as a special toward In Its Educational Contest. It was becauso It believed that the advantages at this school were oaunlled by few and surpassed bv no others. Any of the contestants who me trying for first place, and who fall of the coveted first prize, will have little to regret If I hey nie so for tunate as to find thenuclves second at the close Then ar" great educa tional advantires within the grasp of some of our young people. CLOSE OF THE WEEK. Many Changes in the List and Sev eral New Contestants. Today will close another week In The Tribune's Educational Contest and there will then remain but two weeks before the end, when the fortunate winners of the valuable special rewards will be known. During tho week some Important gains have been made and two new contestants have appeared among the leading ten. Ono of these, Miss Jennie Meyers, of Lake Ariel, made a first appearance in ninth place on Wednesday mornlmf, dropping to tenth the following d-vy, which posi tion she retained yesterday. This morning, however, her name does not appear In the list of ten, ns another young lady, Miss Mary Yeager, of Moscow, who brought In her first points Thursday, succeeded In secur ing enough yesterday tu put her In ninth place, thus crowding Miss Myers down to eleventh. The latter young lady has promised to send In more subscriptions today, and will doubtless soon resume her location In tho list Harry Reese makes a, big gain this morning, going to sixth place, and David V. Blrtley has several points added to his score. Side by side with the stajidlng of the contestants, The Tribune prints this morning the list of special re wardr, showing Just what each would be entitled to If this was the close of the contert. Of course, this order would be subject to change, aB tho contestants will have a choice from the list In the order In which they stand at the close, ns Is fully ex plained In the description on page 4.
