of such children and advise that
their education be continued. Mr.
Sperry said he would gladly do this.
Mr. Jefferson also remarked thai
some of the teachers seemed to have
the idea that they had to cover just
SO many pages in the text books
and they would often rush along at
the beginning of a term, carrying
along the bright pupils at a fast
rate, and letting the others drag.
Mr.. Sperry said it was generally
a young teacher that did that, not
an older one.
Growth of High School.
Late in the evening the discussion
turned again to the rapid growth OF
the high school and the danger that
after a time the present building
would not be adequate. There was
talk of charging the school at some
time, but Mr.. Sperry had another
plan. This was to establish two
junior high schools, one for the part
of the city north of Main street and
the other for the part south of Main.
1t was conceded that new schools
would be needed in time anyhow,
and Mr.. Sperry thought it would be
well to have two new schools to take
care of pupils of all grades from the
first up to and including the ninth.
He favored placing all the pupils Of
the seventh, eighth and ninth grades
in these schools, thus taking these
grades out of the high school building.
This would relieve the high school
building, and he believed that in
time the tenth, eleventh and twelfth
grades would need about the whole
of the building.
He also spoke of establishing at
the high school building a university
department, giving the work of tn.
first two years of the state universe
ty, as is done at Rochester, Fari-
bault, Jackson and elsewhere. At
the Faribault high school there were
seventeen university pupils. Parents
must pay tuition of 5000 per year
per student, but even that was less
expensive than sending them to the
state university.
