" The subject Of the general mess is one
OF much contention In army circles, the
majority of the line officers being In favor
OF the re-eStabliShment of the company

RAISING THE STANDARD.
Important Changes In High School
Studies Inaugurated.

| 0buuIoS AhduS uIdbous
San Antonio has for years en-
ljOyed the distinction Of possessing
one Of the best public school sys.
TENS in the state. This claim was
based not only upon the number
Of its schools and teachers, but
upon the high standard of educa.
ton that characterized the system.
An effort has been made this year
to still further improve the stand
ard by making the courses of the
advanced classes of the pnblic
schools, better known as the High
school classes, adapted to a wider
range Of needs.
Changes have been made in the
studies of the High school grades
that will conform to the sugges.
tons Of report on secondary
school instruction, issued by a
committee appointed by the Ma
tional Teachers association to in
vestigate that subject.
This committee at whose head
was Prof. Eliot, of Harvard
university, investigated the affairs
Of the leading secondary schools of
the country, among which was the
High school of this city, Nm.
Shoch, principal. This is.the only
school south of Kansas City,
whose report was tabulated for use
by the committee.
The courses that are to be taken
in the High school this year are
about the same as during the last
season, but permit of a great
er latitude in the matter of
selection of studies, thus
giving an English course, a
classical course-Greek being intro.
duced and a scientific course.
The course is arranged to cover
three and one half years, and EN-.
bodies all of the subjects common
ly taught in secondary schools.
Each pupil is required to take Eng.
fish history, and the ordinary
branches of mathematics and
science, while of the rest, he may
select those branches best adapted
to his needs, his choice, of course,
being subject to the approval of
the principal.
According to the old plan of
promotion, if student failed in
a single subject he was thrown
back in his education a full year,
and many student has lost the
advantages of a complete High
school education because some cir
cumstance has made him or her de-
ticient in some one study. Through
the new plan, however, the pro-
gram is so arranged that a pupil
may take over, with the lower
class, the subject in which he or
she has failed, and continue the
study of those subjects in which
he or she has stood successful ex-
animation.
Attention has also been paid to
the lower grades. All of the
Seventh and Eighth grades Of the
public schools are now located in
the High school building and the
courses of instructions in these
two grades have been so arranged
as to permit of departmental teach
ing; that is, certain teachers take
certain subjects in different classes,
instead of one teacher instructing
the same class in all branches
throughout the year.
