STATE AID TO
Be SECURED.
FOR NEXT YEAR
$1,000 for Normal Depart
,ment Of local High School
May be Gotten.

State aid, totaling $1,000, will he se-
cured by the East Grand Forks high
school normal department, according
10 f. e. Lurton, superintendent of the
+, local schools, If eight students, the
number required by the state board of
education, can be enrolled for next
year. Six have already s.gnifled their
intentions of enrolling. The state aid
was also secured at the beginning of
the present term.
=, According to word received from
the state board Of educat!on, all stu
gents taking the normal course must
ne seniors or post graduates Every
student who completes the course Is
given credit for one years teaching
experience which enables her, upon
rccommendation to obtain a first
srade teachers certificate without eX-
animation
Aid Many Schools.
The state is now giving special aid
to 230 high schools, against 80 in
Iss2,' when the first aid law became
effective: to 241 graded schools COM
pared with 81 in 1896, when the sec
onu law was operative. and 139 con-
solldated schools under the law of
1911, when 38 schools received aid.
IN addition. the state is now aiding
nnanc.nlly 5o7 semi-graded schools,
e..
olS secSld class schools.
According to the annual report Of
=; q. Schulz, state superintendent Of
education. there is now only one male
!eacher to every 15 women teachers in
the common schools Of the state. Fifty
Years ago. in 1866. there were two
male to every seven teachers in the
schools. and the ratio increased for a
number of years and then began to
decrease steadily, the most marked
decline being since 1900.
More Public schools.
During the last half century. the
number of Minnesota public schools
increased from Lip to 9.4OO and the
value OF school properties from $780,
$50 to s47.459.S35, according to the
superintendent's report.
Figures compiled in the report
show that in the common schools the
man teacher received s62 and the
woman teacher s52 per month on the
average as against the minimum rec
ord of s19.3S for men and s99s for
women in 1852. Increases in the
average salaries paid both men and
women teachers have been most
marked since 1900. when they receiv-
eo S4o.73 and s31.72 respectively.
ieachsrs in Independent and con-
soldated schools are paid better, the
mcns receiving s113 and the women
S54 per month on the average, COM
spared with $77 and $36 in 1886, ,>when
suchf schools were established, and
S91.47 and $44 in 1900. The higher
salaries may account for the greater

DEATHS IN CAMP.

The reports from Alexandria,
showing twenty-five deaths among
the soldiers in three days. and ten
deaths in twenty-four hours, and
forty-four deaths in the past elev-
en- days. should arouse action
somewhere. Such a condition is a
disgrace to those who have the
work in charge. It's an indica-
ton of incompetency, in high
place. somewhere, and should call
for prompt and vigorous action by
the authorities Of the nation.
These soldier boys have volun-
teered to give their lives to their
country. but thew did not volun-
teer to die Of measles and mumps
and pneumonia in a training camp.
