Ing to Changes In Courses.
With the rapid approach of Septem-
Der, plans are being made for the OPP
ening of the state educational institu-
tons and the public schools in
all parts of Idaho. The 1856
school year is looked upon as one of
the most promising OF any in the his
tory of the state due to the advance
ment that has been made along all
lines. The work in the higher grades
the high schools and the colleges will
attract more attention at the coming
school year than ever before owing to
the fact that the state board of edu-
cation and the department of educa-
ton have decided to drop the dead
languages from the course Of study.
Several Dates Set.
At recent meeting of the state
board of education full determination
was reached as to the approaching
sessions of the various school institu-
tions of the state. In addition to the
state university at Moscow, with it's
colleges of letters and science, agricul-
ture, engineering and law, there are
two splenddly equipped normal schools
at Lewiston and Albion, the Idaho
Technical institute at Pocatello, and
the state school for the deaf and blind
at Gooding. The date of registration
for these different institutions has
been fixed as follows:

tration, September 20 and 81; classes

The history of all these institutions
during the year recently closed was
one of gratifying success, it is felt by
the immediate administrative staff, and
by the members of the state board of
education The state is securing good
deal of pleasant publicity through the
excellence of these institutions, and
by the board and the different facul-
ties to make even greater advances
during the coming year.
Attendance Satisfactory.
With the Lewiston normal and the
state university, the faculties of both
have been practically completed with
the exception of the dean of women OF
hn tot al Thic, INN 20. ~
position has also been, in all proba-
bility, filled, but no announcement OF
the fact has yet been made. 1t is
known that President Black, of the
Lewiston normal has given good deal
of attention to this matter, and that
he has felt for some time that he was
certain to secure a dean capable OF
valuable service in this important pos
ition
At the normal school it is already
known that the opening attendance
will be entirely satisfactory, in num-
bers at least, and it is believed in
the personnel of those who will pre-
sent themselves for registration. The
record of the school. as it can be read
in the recort of it's graduates. has been
wonderfully effective advertisement

by the number OF its students but also
by their character.
At the state university the same
thing is true. The school has now been
in existence long enough so that its
graduates have been given opportunity
to impress themselves on the lives OF
this and other states. AS conse-
quence the school is now being sought
more and more every year.-Capital
