p. We see no special call for hard feelings or
hard words in reference to raising contribu-
tons for the suffering people of the South or
for the orphans Of our own soldiers, at Day
EXPORT. Our soldiers feel very natural ana
very commendabe Partially in behail Oh
the orphan children of their old companions
in arms. and we most heartily sympsthise
with them in that feeling.
twill be remembered, however, that the
movement for contribution to reheve the
starving women and children OF the SCUM
was ipaueurated here before We had any init
,.,;on that aid was needed for the Orphans
Home, at Davenport. Hence, it is clear ina
there was no intention, on the part OF the
many esrimabIe ladies and gentle
men who undertook to raise
collection for the South, to interfere with the
Orphans' Home; nor unless the orphans were
in immediate need Of relief, is there aty
special propriety in asking them to forego
their effort for raising relief for the South
We trust therefore that all will unite hear'liy

MR. KELLoaa,s REPORT.

Most Of our space is occupied this week
with the able report of Prof. L. B. Kel-
lOgg, Principal of the State Normal
School. This report will be of great in
tsrOst to the people, because they pay the
taxes that support the Normal. 1t will
give them correct and comprehensive
view of how their money is being spsnt,
and how well it pays to have the SCHOOL
Schools for the education of teachers
for the special training of those who are
TO educate our youth, are comparatively
new thing to the people, and We think
We may we'll be proud of the success of
our Kansas State Normal School. No in
vea:ment has paid SO we'll As the money
appropriated for its support.
We ask for this report careful reading,
especially among members of our next
Legislature. before whom it will be laid
they will be called upon to take some &C.
ton favorable to The school, and this re
port ful nisbes them with just the iufor-
NATION they need in order that they may
act intslligsntly.

NORMAL TRAININa School

OeWE9os NEW DIRK.
Our new term opens with quite fatter-
ing pro 'pects. The entering class is
large and promises we'll. We are labor
ing under much embarrassment for the
want Of apparatus. Our annual appro-
pria,ion is but $4,000. which is hardly
sufficient to pay the teachers and defray
the incidental expenses of the school
We hope to get $4,000 added to it this
winter. Il should be Sl5 900. The
Albany school has SIC 600. Our bull
dings and grounds are pleasantly located
and meet the wants sof tue school very
we'll. Il was dead property on the hands
OF the 70; mer owner and was purchased
at a very low figure. As it now stands
il is not worth less than $50, 900. We
could accommodate two hundred pupils
more, although this would make US some
what crowded We should like TO add
to our practising schools, grammar and
high school department, if We had the
room for them. hope We may some
day be able to enlarge our buildings 80
az TO be able to accomplish this object.
AS it now stands we acc ,mmodate
about Eve hundred pupils 10 the model
and practising schools. and one hundret.
in the normal school, with the ability TO
accommodate one hundred more.
We have at present sew a teachers WhC
are under full pay and devote their who'll
time to the school. One dsvotes half hi;
time and receives half pay. Three 9th
ers have from Two to three recitalioni
each.

From these. particularly the former, you

enough l would defer the elemenIar,

pleted the advance preparatory course
and then follow it with the elementary

it with lew pupils. but the majority
cannot spend time enough TO complete thu
whole. Thus Tar We fad our cours'

We shall graduate about Fifty at III,

PENN YLYANIA,

OFFICE CF SURF OF Pun lSsTRUcTI N
Absence from home has prevented me
from answering your questions at an
earlier day; lam compelled 10 answer
them very briefly now.
/. We have four normal schools In
Penney lvauia, one of which was recog-
nizsd as such only few days ago.
2 and 3. The estimated value of the
buildings, grounds, fixtures DC, at Mil.
iersville, is S78 900; at Edinboro, S34.
900; al Mansfield, S42 $50, and at Ruz
town, probably $4,000. The cost was
about one third more.
4. The State gave each school sI5,-
600 towards the erection of it's buildings,
&C., and now gives fifty cents per week
to all students preparing to teach, or il
they have been disabled In the country =
service, or are orphans of soldiers, one
dollar per week; and each graduate re
csiYss fifty dollars from the State at grad
nation.
S. The pecuuiary aid given TO the
pupils of the normal schools by the state
is stated above. Itgives them no other
encouragement except diplomas which
exempt them from all examiuatiOn BY
public school authorities in all parts OF
the state.
6. The state ought, in my opinion. q
assume the entire expenses of educating
teachers, at the normal schools so far as
tuition is concerned. Pennsylvania has
never done 80. however. Our policy has
been for the stale TO AID the people in es
tablishiug normal schools. and to aid
teachers in obtaining professional edu
cation but not 10 bear the whole ex
pence.
Z. It is almost universally acknowl,
edged that our normal schools have done
much to improve our common schools
Il is estimated that two thirds of the
graduates of these schools are now teach
ing. and they are everywhere offered The
best schools, and receive the highest sal
aries. We hope soon 10 present some
statistics on this point which will be val
liable.
8. There have been 10 objections II
the legislature for several years to the sp
preparations for the normal schools
Some years ago there was much oppos'
ton to them. j. =. WICKER$HAM,

port Of normal training schools.
Our country is not wanting in young
persons who have acquired, imperfectly,
to be sure, the rudiments of knowledge,
and WHO, for the want of better educated
and trained persons, are employed TO in-
struct our schools. But public intelli
gence in regard to their qualifications is
rapidly advancing, and with it an increas.
ed demand for better requirements. more
exalted character and greater aptitude for
their vocation. To NEE. this demand,
those who would teach will, of necessity
resort to the normal schools. In my
opinion normal school for every one
thousand teachers is the least number
that Gao Go tbs work. as y0ucertainly
know it should be done.
