as the caps and the suits for the
gymnasium, ought to be purchased
outside, certainly not at the Normal 4
School.
This may or may not be regular
business, we are unable to state whe
ther or not it is part OF the duties
OF the teachers to engage in those
details Of official industrialization.
but however tbis may be, our idea of
education is adverse to seeing teach
ers in public institution Of learning
entering into competition with the
merchants.
If what rumor af1rms is really
fact, 1t follows that it is unfair to the
students, as well as TO the sellers of
the various articles which are used
by the pupils.
In our desire to find extenuating
circumstances for what We have been
discussing, we have inquired as to
whether the articles bought by the
students at the Normal School are
seeut>4 cheaper t1au u the lur.eut
fpnces; but our lAYeotio oations have
led to the making ii a new charge
against the function.ry who openly
maintains his store in the so-cal1ed
temple Of learning.
Everything is there sold at the sa-
me price as in other establishments.
The students are offered no advant-
ages in buying the articles they requ-
ire.
And what renders the matter still
more grave and open to criticism, is
the fact that the pupils are prohibited
from bying anywhere else, the pens,
pencils etc. that they need.
All compulsion is distasteful, it is
invariably irksome, and when there
exists no necessity or justification for
its exercise, it becomes odious and
tyrannical,
The Board OF Trustees of the Uni
versity of Porto Rico, Of which the
Commissioner of Education is the
President, ought TO see how all these
anomalies which rumor is SO persist
emily circulating, initiate against the
legitimate top4I4l 4JDs ef t,s+ vouth
for it is manifestly unfair ana unjust
ito impose upon them such great sa-
crifces for the sake of the poor rec
ompense received, such as the one of
obtaining a teacher S certificate under
existing conditions.
And that Board Of Trustees ought
to look to it that the only tangible
evidence which exists of the fantas-
tic University f Porto Rico, does
not have brought upon it the censu-
Ires and criticisms which are now be
ing directed against the modest de-
Ipendency Of that center Of learning,
which boasts such high sounding
and mbitious title.

EDITORIAL

Many times, in considering the ad-
vantages offered by the Normal
School of Rio Piedras to the youth of
modest aspirations who desire to
adopt the career of teacher, we have
heard exaggerated, by interested
functionaries the facilities to be TO-
und in the above institution by stu.
dents, and the benefit VII ich they will
derive from the title of professor.
The rumors which have reached us
for some time, lead us to question
the accuracy of that judgment and,
at the same time, they call attention
to something that occurs in the above
institution that conflicts with that
which ought to exist in countries like
ours, as we'll as with customs com
mon amongst Us
The talk Of the economy, found by
the youth who aspire to fill the role
of teacher, is nothing more than
simple legend.
Let us leave out of the question
the matter of the competition 10 whi
ch the Portorican teachers are subJec-
ted by those who come from the Uni
ted States; and without pausing to
consider something that is power
full factor in demonstrating that the
career Of teacher is not one that holds
brilliant future for our youth, let
rs mediate for a moment on the
monthly expenses of those students
in the Normal School, and it will not
be a difficult matter to realize that
the benefits of going through the
course of preparation for the title of
teacher are of doubtful value.
It costs each student Of the Normal
School, approximately, thirty dollars
month for the privilege Of studying
to become a teacher.
Besides the necessary expenses
there are added others altogether su-
perauous, such for instance, as subsc-
ribing to the 50 called Athletic Club,
caps for the swimming class, gymna-
sium suits, collections-of course pur-
elyvoluntary (sic) for remembrances
to the teachers on special occasions,
and morever, they are obliged to BUY
blankbooks, pencils, pens and similar
articles at the school, instead of the
students having the privilege of buy
ing them where they see fit, and in
many cases at lower price and Of
better quality.
Public rumor afirms all this, it
has produced the natural criticisms
and it is pity that in the only effect
i've establishment pertaining to the
fantastic University Of Porto Rico,
such things should be allowed, things
which certainly do not reflect credit
on those who permit them nor to the
ones who perpetrate them.
