increased from 1907 to 3,538,and the
teachers employed from 10 to 384.
Through these schools, 1000 cit
lzenship certificates were granted in
1872, whereas none had geen granted
before. This means that 1000 new
citizens with good understanding
OF American ideals and a foundation
of American education were turned
out by our night schools in the wear.
This was done by an expenditure of
state aid of S18,907.67.
THE distinguishing feature of yo-
cational education as carried out with
state and federal aid, is that it is
planned In distant relation with voca-
tional occupations. The general field
Is divided into three subdivisions
agriculture, trade and industries, and
home economics. In the last two
years special supervisor has been
IN charge of each of these divisions
throughout the state. These super
vlsors have seen to it that the work
is carried on in the local communities
according to standard requirements.

OF classes have been carried all day.

English be required in high schools.
The other IL subjects are determined
by school boards. But il is also the
duty of the department, under the
law, to furnish suggestive courses of
study, and the last two years our de-
partment has been preparing, with
the assistance of educators through
out the state. an entirely new curric-
ulum. The elementary school curric-
ulum is just completed and the high
school program is nearly completed.
1T is inevitable that costs of edu-
cation should mount" Mr.. Mcconnell
said.
Education i'm America is the great
est experiment of its kind the world
has ever known" he said. Greater
demands upon the schools increase in
the number of students of schools,
and of the subjects which legislation
have made it necessary for schools to
undertake, have resulted in the great
err costs.

schools and colleges. Without doubt
there are high schools which have
permitted more diversification of SUBJ
jects than is good for the students,
but generally speaking, the tendency
is towards more systematic and bet

and colleges are coming out of the
period of free electives, which came
as a reaction against the old ironclad

courses which furnish well balanced
education in some definite direction.

SHAKEUP IN CURRICULUM OF
SCHOOLS is SLATED FOR
NEXT FALL

New curriculums will be inaugu-
rated in Minnesota elementary and
high schools next fall by the state
department. of education with the pur-
pose of emphasizing more vigorously
fundamental studies and of organic
ing high school courses with a more
definite AIM
This announcement was made last
week by j. NJ. Mcconnell, commits
sioner of education, says the Miunea-
polls Journal.
The new curriculum for high
schools will eliminate many elective
courses-such as-and vigorously de-
fine the studies that pupils must
take. / the elementary schools the
time honored studies, reading writ
ting, arithmetic, geography and
grammar will receive greater atten-
ton and made as attractive to the
child as possible.
"This step is the result of two
year study" Mr.. Mcconnell said,
which has just been completed.
1t is directly in line with recon-
mendations of DIR. Henry Smith Prit-
chett, president of the Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of
Teaching, whose recent report, charg-
ing that the modern education gives
too much time to a diversity of sub
jects to the detriment of exact know
ledge in fundamental subjects, has
caused a sensation among school lead
ers.

THORIZES THE FOLLOWING
STATEMENT:

"The newspapers have announced
that 81, ,.JOO.OOO have been contributed to
the American Jewish Relief Committee
in honor of the 10Th birthdny of Nathan
Straus. 1t would have been fine trib-
ute to great citizen but though effort
was made in many communities to col
lect unpaid pledges in honor of Mr..
Straus' birthday. there is, unfortunate
ly. no basis for any statement that any
additional funds have been contributed
and it is deemed important to make this
correction in order to avoid misunder-
standing both here and abroad.
Our funds are getting uncomfortn-
bly, low. and we do not wish the idea to
go forth that we have unlimited
amounts at our disposal, or that it is an
easy matter to secure contributions.
We are trying to bring in every prom
ised contribution, but meanwhile we are
rapidly reaching the end of our re-
sources"
