In order to increase the factor of safety
to the millions of passengers who move
over it's tracks during the year, the
Louisville & Nashville Railroad is spend
ing millions of dollars in equipping its
tracks with an electrically-controlled,
automatic block signal system.
These signals protect trains against
head-on and rear-end collisions, open
switches, broken rails, or cars on the sid
ing standing too close to the main track.
In addition to the safety features, these
signals expedite traffic and enable trains
to be run more nearly on time.
Beginning in 1912, the /. & N. now has
completed and under construction and
contracted for, 1 ,089 miles of such signals;
at a cost of S2,592,00O.O0, or $2,38000 per
mile. The Company spends $22O,OOOO0
every year to keep these signals in good
working order.
Constant watchfulness and care on the
part of the L. & N. organization coupled
with the Management's policy Of provid--
ing proved safety devices, has resulted
in the L. & N having an enviable record
for safety to passengers.

Character VS.. Collateral

In the banking business col

infer that | think high schools and
innate place: the high school fur
wishes the foundation, the university
trains for professional life, and the
normal school for citizenship. What
am now cons dcring is the work
done by Il normal school as Judged
by results in the after life of the
student
A; a developer of the intellect, the
normal is superior to high school
for reasons that | need not here
mention. On the other hand, a
university course is longer, and Of
fers the student wider acqualnt-
qnce with world scholarship than
could possibly be- offered by nor
nal. But it is not in the line of
scholarship but in the use to which
such scholarship is put that ! wish
70 make the comparison. Many of
the university graduates that come
into the community az home makers
fail TO have the influence in COM
munity bettcrment that graduates of
normal schools have, because the
former have either become indiffer-
ent. or self-centercd to such an eX-
tent that they shrink from leader
ship for which their training should
fit them. In other words, a normal
school is better able to develop
leader ship by fitting the students
for taking up community problems
L. 4, an
course Of the university students
often educates them away from
those whom they would lead.
While others may have had Il diff
fcrcnt experience than ! have. yet
my experience has been that nor
nal graduates as 4 rule are more
alive to their community duties and
make themselves felt in more vital
and worth while ways than univcr-
, vclsity graduates do. A university
graduate is trained to seek truth
! but would rather do nothing than
, take the chance Of doing anything
I wrong. Her studying has made her
a deliver, but oftentimes deficient in
! initiative, leadership, and conf
dence. Her gains in sch olarship may
I be at the expense of her every day
human relations. Y y
! at is my conviction that Il normal
school course is more valuable il
producing worth while people for ;
community than any other course ol
like extent in any other educational
| institution"
Some young people are by nature
not adapted to scholarship, and il
would be IL sorry world indeed.

NOR NAL SCHOOL
HELD ADDITION

Work, Says Crawford
SPEAKS AT DICKINSON
New Normal School Building
Dedication Is Attended
BY Many People
SPEAKS AT DICKINSON

Dickinson, n. d., June T.. Lewis
+. Crawford, curator Of the North
Dakota State Historical Society,
speakng at the dedication Of the
new Dickinson Normal School build
ing here last night, declared the
normal school ''s more valuable IN
producing worth while people for a
community than any other course
Of like extent in any other educa-
tiona institution
The dedication was attended by
many educators and II large number
of people from Dickinson and other
Missouri Slope cities. Mr.. Craw-
ford, delivering the main address,
touched upon the normal schools
functions in the community at large.
lie said in part:
The average age Of all teachers
in the public schools, over half OF
whom have normal training, is but
25 years. 1t necessarily follows
that the normal schools are wasting
" good deal of time on professional
work unless such training IS OF
val1e in making their graduates
better citizens when teaching days
are over. The average normal school
graduate becomes Il home maker IN
comparatively young life, and her
education is short of what it should
be unless it enables her to take IA
more worthy part in the life Of the
community in which she lives.
The question naturally arises,
whether the normal school should
not consciously train for the forty
or more years of home and com
munitv life rather than for the five
years of teaching, but in my opinion
the normal schools do meet this
problem, Notwithstanding that their
whole aim and advertised function
is to prepare teachers. The central
theory cf a normal school organiza-
ton has been considered wholly pro
fessional, and if this function were
eliminated or even subordinated, no
reason could be assigned for the CON
tinued existence of the school.
The laws in many states require
applicants as Il condition for enroll
ment in a normal school, to sign a
pledge agreeing to teach given
number of years within the state.
No one ever heard of u university
requiring a pledge of it's graduates
to do something for the state IN
recognition of their obligation. The
practice of requiring Il pledge would
signify that if 4 normal graduate
did not teach, the expense incurred
by the state in training her was
wasted, implying that the normal
school has no call to prepare fol
the long years of citizenship that
follow the few years of teaching.
The best way to judge the value
NJ the training 4 student receives
i'm any school is the ways he re
spends in after life to the demands
of the community in which he lives
Training is rightfully expected to
develop Cd Intellectual powers; q,
Moral stamina; CD Leadership along
worth while lines. Unless school
ing does this for n student, and II
Just the measure that it falls short
it is a failure.
In making comparison of thu
results of normal course on the
average boy or girl as compared
with a hight school or university
course, | do not wish my hearers to
