Institute Lecture.

Last Monday night our people we're
favored with a lecture delivered at Crown
hall, under the auspices OF the Southern
New Mexico Normal institute, by Prof.
G. S. Ramsey, president OF the uriverity
at Albuquerque.
Quite a large audience was in atten-
dance. The professors subject was "The
Growth Of the Normal Idea in America"
Normal schools, founded for the purpose
of turning out efficient teachers, have
been established. since their first feeble
beginning, in 1888, in every state in the
Union, in such ~profusion that the advRn-
tages offered by them are nov within the
reach Of all who desire to become m
structOrs of the young. Methods taught
by them have been improved until teach
ing has become more and more a science,
worthy of being studied and praoticed
by the best talent the country affords.
Our foremost universities seeing the ris-
ing demand for we'll equipped teachers,
have one by n added special depart
ments for the instruction Of instructors;
and just recently there has been estab-
lished in the city Of New York q special
school for the instruction Of teachers.
The Leland Stanford university Of Cali
fornia, have added what they call a chair
Of education. The constrast between
the old and new system was entertaining
in the extreme, and at the same time, TO
us western people il was gratifying to
know that the west wa right along in
the van Of progress In this line.
Prof. Ramsey believes in educating our
teachers at home and within the bounds
of our own grand west. New Mexico can
be congratulated for having secured the
