Of similar schools. 1t had It's ups and
downs; friends and foes; successes
and failures.
There We're obstacles in the way of
success that seemed almost insur-
mountablc at times. To-day 1t may
be tru,hfully said that those who We're
most bitterly opposed to the schools
establishment are numbered among
Its warmeSt friends. The first board
consisted of the governor of the state,
Hon. John Miller; state superintend-
ent of public instruction, Hon. w. J..
Clapp, eX-otficio; DR.. HI. III. Ruger,
Mr.. III. H. Dickinson and Mr.. II. II.
Lee. March 2. 1891. the two ex-otficio
members Of the board We're replaced
by Mr.. O'Brien and Mr.. George Jeur-
gems. Aug. 1, 1891, this board ap-
pointed Mr. a. r. Spear superintend-
ent of the school. which office he held
until May ID, 1895, when he resigned
the position. The school opened Sept.
10, 1890. with one pupil. Forty-nine
have attended the school since its
establishment. At present there are
Twenty-Five in attendance and at least
thirty more who ought to be in the
school. From September, $780, to Sep
tember 1893, the school was temper
arily located in an old frame building
in town.
While there the school suffered many
inconvenience and hardships. In
March. 1893, Gov. Shortridge appoint
ed the following gentlemen on the
board: Messrs. James Mccormick G.
II. Springer. O. II. Aaberg, J. s. Con-
yers and c. d. Mooers. In March,
Mr.. l.. T. lie May was reappointed in
Mr. l.. p LeNlay was appointed in
place Of Mr.. Conyers. Upon assuming
control, these gentlemen found the
school undergoing a siege of sickness
as result Of which three deaths had
occurred among the pupils. Feeling
that TIE safety of the school demanded
it. the board closed the school March
IL. 1893. In the meantime a tract Of
land consisting of eighteen acres about
half a mile from town had been gen.
erously donated to the state by the
Great Northern railroad as site for
a new building, and upon this tract Of
land has been erected the handsome
structure. a cut of which accompanies
this article. The only discrepancy
between the building and the cut is
the absence of the west wing, which
has not yet been put up. The present
value of the school property is about
$4,000, of which sum $1,000 is in
the building. When completed as de-
signed and equipped with heating

water supply, the state will have q

THE SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF.

When North Dakota became a state
in 1889, the national government grant
ed the school for the deaf, when it
should be established, the sum Of 49,
600 acres of land within the borders
of the state, and the constitutional
convention of it's first meeting in 1889
accepted this gift and located the
school for the deaf in Itamsey county
at the city of Devils Lake.
Although the time will come when q
snug income will lie derived from this
gift, yet at present the school derives
no revenue from ii. On the eighteenth
of March, 1890, the bill 10 establish
this school became Il law. Those who
lubOrcd TO establish this school de-
serve the thankful prayers of every
deaf person In the state present and
future for their noble work in starting
this philnnthropic and humane enter
prise.

Normal School ut Valley City. 1t Is
just now entering upon its, fourth
year Of work, but in the short time
Of it's existence it has proven it's right
to be and in point of attendance and
solidity of work done. ranks high
among the educational institutions OF
the Northwest.
The State Normal School at Valley
City was located by the constitutional
convention of North Dakota. and So
600 acres of land were set apart and
appropriated for this school. March
s. 1890, an act was approved provid-
ing for the government of the Normal
Schools. The school was first opened
October Ii, 1890. and for nearly q
year was supported by the generous
contributions of public spirited citi-
zens Of Valley City. March ,, 1891.
an act was approved, providing for
the construction and temporary MAIN
tenance Of the school. and the sum OF
$4,000 was appropriated for the pur-
pose. March Z, of the same year.
another act was approved, providing
for the erection. operation and man
agement of the normal schools of the
state. This act authorized the is
suance of bonds to the amount Of
100000 for the erection of suitable
buildings and the purchase Of
grounds. Acting under authority Of
this act. the governor appointed a
board of management to have charge
of the affairs of the institution. The
school opened it's doors September
IS 1891, in Il building rented for the
purpose. During this year SIG students
We're enrolled. The next school year
opened September 81. 1892. with the
faculty increased. and closed June
9th. showing an attendance for the
year of 143. December 9th of this
year the beautiful building now or-
cupied was formally dedicated and
occupied. The third year opened
September 2G. 1893. with a still larger
faculty and an increased attendance.
Three members were enrolled in the
senior class and graduated June 4,
1S94-the total attendance in all de-
partmentS being 25a. 40 of whom
We're registered in the normal de-
partment. The fourth year began
September %. 1894, with Il faculty of
eight and senior class of eleven.
The total attendance for the year was
264. 164 of whom We're in the normal
department.
The school is located at Valley City,
the county seat of Barnes county. one
of the largest and most important
agricultural counties of the state

oughly fit themselves for the work of
teaching. An examination of these
courses. as published in the annual
catalogue, shows that they are strong
and we'll arranged. The scientific
course will bear comparison With our
best college courses for thoroughness
and completeness
The aim of this institution, as Sue
cinctly expressed in the act providing
for it's organization and government,
chapter 81 of he Laws of North Da-
kota. 1891, is ''tO prepare teachers in
the science of education and the art Of
teaching public schools" Unlike most
new schools in new communities. this
school has never made an attempt to
do all things. From the first the in
tention of the legislature in founding
it has been kept steadily in view. The
curriculum and regulations Of the
school are formulated with a direct
reference to this primary purpose. The
studies are selected with reference to
their pedagogical value.
This institution is particularly for
tunate in it's faculty. The board Of
trustees recognize the important fact
that the nstrllctiOnal force is the ele-
ment that gives vigor and permanent
growth to any institution. Great care
has been exercised in the selection of
teachers. The best institutions Of
learning in the country have been
freely drawn upon for their best talent.
No one is employed who is not spe-
cialist in the department he is to di-
rect, but he must also be skillful and
methOdical teacher with a record of
successful experience.

On the second floor is found the
large room used as library, reading
room and museum. Here is found a
large table abundantly supplied with
all the leading periodicals and refer
cnce books. The library cases contain
several hundred volumes OF carefully
selected books, including Webster's
and the Century dictionaries, Cham
hcrs' and International cyclopedias,
geographical. biographical and scien-
titic dictionaries. hand books, aliases,
etc. The museum is not large. but al
ready displays many hundred speci-
mems of historical and scientific in
terest. The general assembly room Is
found on this floor also. 1t is G5X.lO
feet with twenty-five foot ceiling. 1t
is handsome, spacious and perfect in
acoustic properties. In one end is the
rostrum, furnished in the usual way,
while the body of the room is seated
with school desks. so that each stu
dent has an individual desk which he
occupies at all general exercises. The
mathematical and literary DEPART
ments each occupy rooms on this floor,
and with one room devoted to the use
of the practice school completes the
number.
In the easements are found the
cloak rooms. the Fuller t&Warren sys-
TEN of dry closets, four large furnaces,
two fuel rooms. one ash room and one
room designed as Il gymnasium for the
young men.
The campus consists Of eighteen
acres with a front on the Sheyenne
river and extending to the top of the
high bluffs in the rear of the building.
1t is covered with Il natural forest, in
which are found all the trees indiyious
to our northern climate. From the
windows of the second floor an eX-
tended view may he had of the entire
city and valley in which it is located.
In the bluffs in the rear of the building
is Il spring of the purest sparkling soft
water, which supplies the school. No
institution in the state has so perfect
a location and such beautiful natural
surroundings. and it may be doubted
whether any in the Northwest eXcels
it in this important respect.
The school offers four courses of
study, viz: An elementary course of
three years work. an intermediate
course. requiring four years for COM
pletion. Il scientific course requiring
higher standing for admission, and
