OF the company paid the difference
between that and the second class

Mr.. ONeil, who was entirely fair,
even though he neglected to specify

their disinclination to permit our

knowledge of our type of perform

could the English directors who were
totally unfamiliar with the subject.

SAYS CONSOLIDATION
OF NORMAL SCHOOLS IS
WRONG DEAOF ECONOMY

The following is an extract
from an article published in the
Douglas Democrat.
No one will doubt the need
of an agricultural college in the
state of Arizona, and the proba-
bilities are that the need will in
crease during the next fewyears.
But why in the name of common
sense one of the oldest and most
highly developed educational in
stitution in the state, which is
filling an undeniable need,
should be destroyed to make way
for an altogether different kind
of college, is more than the un-
expert mind Of the ordinary in
telligent citizen can understand.

''The Tempe normal school is
the oldest school of it's kind in

which cannot be said for every
normal school by any manner of
means. 1t has grown from a
single building to a group of
structures that reflect credit
