one year, so DESTROYS are interested
friends of the bill in the general well
fare of our schools that they have ex-
pressed the hope that the bill would
pass, even tho the very small appropri-
alton be omitted from the bill. This
loyal exhibition of the spirit of help
fulness upon the part of the friends OF
better schools Will, trust, prompt your
honorable body to give earnest heed to
this measure, which 1 think so vitality
affects all of the common school inter-
ests of the commonwealth.
Closely connected with the question
of supplying better teachers for the
schools of Iowa is senate File No. 1873
by Crossley This measure related to
the granting of certificates and life
diplomas to teach upon the diplomas
issued by certain institutions, when
professional pedagogical preparation
shall have been included in the course
of study. Since, as stated above, sew
eral thousand unprepared teachers are
certificated annually that schools may
be kept 1T is my opinion that young
men and young women who have given
from two to six years of time to the
pursuit of knowledge should be licensed
to teach upon their college diplomas.
Since 1t is always thru the children
that the very best work is to be done
in the uplifting of the citizenship of
any community, 1T is important that
something in line with the above be
passed at the present session of your
honorable body
The people of Iowa have for several
years displayed an interest in the con-
solidation of school districts. There has
passed the house of represent
atives substitute for house file 90 by
Campbell which provides that rural in
dependent districts may unite and form
one and the same corporation. The
as a whole is looked upon with
great favor by this department, and
from large amount of correspondence
had with boards of directors in nearly
all parts of the state, we believe that
the passage of this bill would give very
general satisfaction.
Charged with the general supervision
of all common schools have the great
honor to submit this communication for
the attention of your honorable body
Respectfully submitted
