VALLEY CITY NORMAL

The Valley City State Normal school
maintains a rural course for fitting
teachers for country schools. 1t is
contended by the faculty that there
must be differentiation in the train
ing of teachers as there is the training
men for the various professions in
life. There is a wide difference be-
tween the requirements of a teacher
who goes to a country school and one
who goes to a town or city graded
school. The former must teach all
grades from the first up to the eighth
and must assume position of leader
ship in the community which Is ua-
known to the teacher in the city
school. This Is not all, the life which
the country boy or girl is to lead diff
fers fundamentally from the life for
which a town or city boy or girl is
destined and requires a much differ
ent training. The country boy is to
spend his life on a farm surrounded
by nature and must be equipped to
contend with the elements and must
be more self-reliant when thrown on
his resources to wrest a competence
from the soil. For this reason his
teacher should be familiar with many
things: nature study, agriculture, do
nestle science and manual training.
In fact, there is such a wide contrast
between the life of the country and
the town or city, that all subjects must
be taught, in a slightly different man.
ner. In order to meet these require
ments, the Valley City normal has in
stituted a rural course to train
teachers especially for the country
school. The department is under the
supervision of Prof. b. A. Wallace, one
of the prominent educators OF the
state In addition to the above, Mr..
Wallace requires that his pupils be
familiar with the social and economic
problems which prevail in the country.
The social center movement is consid-
erer in all it's phases. The need is
generally conceded by all educators
of more social life in the rural COM
n:unity but there is a wide difference
of opinion as to what this social life
should center about Some think the
church, but manifest the churches are
too far apart in this state to solve
the problem, others contend that 1t

tions. but the general belief, shared by
Mr.. Wallace is that 1t should center
about the school. To this end the
teachers in the rural course are train
ed to be social leaders as well as peda-
cog. The rural course requires one
full year and the summer term ten
months and a half. At the conclu-
sion of the course, the pupil receives
a second grade elementary certificaSe
to teach in the rural schools of the
state. All of last years class, the first
to graduate from the course are now
teaching in country schools at from
$50 TO $50 per month.

The activities OF the faculty OF the

Hollis, supervisor of the model school
and vice president of the institution,
returned from Medina yesterday
where he addressed the schools in the

also delivered an address to the school
supervisors of Eddy county at New
Rockford and was extended an invita-
ton to one of the important counties
OF the state to spend a week touring
the county in an educational revival
movement. He will go to Grand Forks
next week to address the Grand Forks
county supervisors. Prof. Lucas goes

The agricultural department of the
normal school believes that text book
work should be supplemented by ac-
tual library and field work. Work at
present is being done along the line OF
feeding. The actual feeding OF horses
and cattle may not be feasible in
many communities, but it is believed
that much can be learned of feeds
and feeding by caring for poultry.
For the purpose of giving actual
experience in this work, there have
been two coops of pullets placed at
the school dormitories. One cobp of
nine white leghorns was purchased
from the Johnston Stock farm in this
county and coop of wyandotte thor
oughbreds are also being used. The
regular class in elementary agriculture
care for these chickens and accurate
accounts Of all foods and of eggs be-
ing produced will be kept. The expert
ment will show the possibilities Of egg
production in North Dakota where
hens are fed properly. 1t will also
give several students actual practice
in compromising rations for animals.
