An Act '<For tho Encouragement OF
Higher EducatiOM.''

An Act -tFor tho Encouragement OF
Higher Education"
Last March the Leg islature approved
the act entitled as above, which provides
that any public graded school In any in
corporated village or in any township
which has or may hereafter adopt the
"township system" Of schools giving
preparatory instruction In all the branches
prescribed as prerequisite for admls-
sion to the collegiate department of the
University Of Minnesota, not lower than
the third or sub-freshman class, and ad-
hitting thereto students Of both sexes
from any part of the state, without charge
or tuition in the same, shall be entitled
to receive, provided they comply with the
other conditions Of the act, $500 per year
In July last, the Board Of Education
Of Austin, made application to the High
School Board for the state aid, as pre-
scribed in the act. On Wednesday
and Thursday. Oct. 30 and 81, Mr..
c. S. Bryant, Secretary Of tho High
School Board, examined the pupils in
Austin school. The examination was
satisfactory, and as soon as all the rcqulr-
ed arrangements can he made, the Austin
High School will be open to pupils TO
any part Of the state of Minnesota, free
Of tuition. 1t is hoped that ere long
many pupils will enroll themselves and
enjoy the advantages of our High School.
The primary object Of this act is to
encourage higher education by preparing
pupils to enter the University, but at the
same time none may deny themselves the
advantages Of the school simply because
they have no intention Of entering the
University. The design is to give col.
Iegiate education where it can he done
if not this, good academic education
will be sufficient to meet, for the present,
the intention Of this law.
