the character of the work will be de-
yeloped along the. same high stand
ards as before, but in addition, they
may be sure OF two things-First, of
having open 10 them the best paid
position in the State and OF having
been able TO secure in their own state
the highest type of training for be-
coming a teacher; ard Second, of
haxing that work--the value of it,
recognized by other states.
Superintendents are anxious for
Normal School graduates and school
boards are willing to pay for them.
Whereas, four years ago, graduates of
this school we're centent to receive
SO per week upon beginning teach
ing-this year, many of our graduates
are to receive $13 and $14 per week.
and next year, the wages undoubtedly
will be even higher. in methods and
training. the Normal School is abreast
of the times and every one recognizes
the great public service done by the
Normal Schools-and the great need
for their graduates as leaders of edu-
cational movements.
The faculty for this coming year
has been strengthened by the addi-
ton of Miss Jessie |, Ross of Grand
Isle, for several years Superinten-
dent of Schools in Vermont and more
recently the principal Of the training
