days without ever even knowing at
any time of his life that the state had
any such institutions for preparing
teachers as normal schools.
Pays Tribute 10 University.
1.-THE normal schools of the state
which it unhesitatingly recognizes as
the worthy leader of the states edu-
cational institutions and to which they
shall continue to be glad, as they
have been in the past, to look for help
and inspiration in many ways. The
normal schools are honOred in being
represented upon this installation &C.
casion and they are happy to bring to
the university and its. newly elected
president their heartiest congratula-
lions INK their most cordial wishes
n satisfaction in the performance
of their great part in promoting the
educational welfare of this state.
"~Co-operation in education Is i'm
piled in democracy-the ideal. There
can be no fair and considerable treat
ment for all, no opportunity for the
best possible education for every
child without a close. harmonious CO.
operation of all educational agencies.
A lack of such cooperation means
lost time and force, a retardation of
" "dAu ClIlCII, LII ulSAlIl0SCAS a
sacrifice of life and opportunity. "A
close. harmonious cooperation of
educational agencies Estate institu-
tions. of course, but all others too)
means that there shall be neither too
few nor too many of them. that their
functions shall be properly distrfbut-
ed, that h smallest shall be permit
ted to exert its due influence. that the
largest shall be prevented from exert
ing an undue influence; that each
shall have its place. its proper place,
in the sum-; that nothing partisan or
dogmatic which is foreign and poison
u to democracy shall touch any of
them, and that personal ambition and
local %selfshness shall everywhere be
subordinated to higher considerations.
1t is only cooperation like this, which
in itself involves the democratic
square deal, that can be expected to
yield the democratic results desired.
Democracy and cooperation
these should be our educational
watchwords-the one telling us what
to seek and theo other how to find it."
