NORMAL SCHOOL SOLUTION
Is, u. Allen Of Eugene In
The urVguman.

A newspaper item has been going
the rounds to the effect that. since
the voters had dccli'sd to establish
new normal School at rcndlc.
ton. the Monmouth Normal would
ask from the Legislature such an
appropriation aS would enable il
10 care Tor all normal students Of
the state. As one who has inter
cstcSl himself somewhat in the nol :
mai school problem. permit me TO
say that IL seems To me that
there is another and more appIu.
pirate remedy. 1nc whole argu.
mcnt against rcopcning the Ne
ton Normal has been that Weston
is too small "a town to IurnlSn pu,
pills Tor the practice school oi n
normal. IL that argument is gvud
II applies with Shtvlal iorcc

ally. am satisfied taat Weston

state.
The solution | wish 10 suggest is
that the Legislature brUyidc "A sin-

schools be conuuctcu by them IN
the plants now owned by tine state
as are necessary to care Tor the
normal school students OF the
state. A single normal school au-
ministration would 60 far TO pre-
vent rivalry ami competition among
several normal schools and To stai.-
dardize the schools themselves. II
would relieve the normal school
boards oil the bias that continually
tempts them to build up in their
particular locality an extensive
plant at the expense OF the state.
While the Gust of maintaining
two moderate sized normals would
still exceed, probably. the cost OF
maintaining one large one. this
would more than offset in the ad-
vantage OF having the educational
facilities near the student anu saw
ing him transportation expenses.
Then, too, schools are like magnets;
the nearer lhey are the more strong-
Iy they draw. The mere presence
vi school suggests using it.
