Rave they benefited the individual?
|f‘Ye shall know them by their
fruits”). “A good tree cannot bring
fbrth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt
tree bring forth good fruit.” “Every
tree that bringeth not forth good
f)rult is hewn down and cast into the
ilre.” Wherefore by their fruits ye
shall know them.” The junior nor
mals have done the work of university
Extension by taking the gospel of bet
terment in the persons of men and
jfromen, instructors and lecturers, in
to the uttermost parts of the com
monwealth;
§ These have inspired young men and
women to carry on their education in
the established institutions of higher
learning in Nebraska;
They have brought under the in
fluence of capable instructors young
people heretofore deprived of very
wide opportunities and enthused them
with larger purposes;
They have offered the means to as
piring teachers to raise their teaching
certificate grades and by that much
to become more truly professional in
their work;
They have served as a clearing house
wherein qualifications were tested and
talented teachers promoted to better
positions. Four ot the best grade
teachers in the McCook city schools
today, were "found out”4n the junior
normal there;
They have assisted to weed out the
incompetent and shiftless, which, If
this were their greatest service, thfy
would still be abundantly justified be
fore the world;
They have so inspired and enthused
the students that these, students tfe
oarne better teachers. Thus testify
the county superintendents of schools,
who have examined their work and
who, therefore, speak with authority;
They have evoked -from Governor
Sheldon, who visited many of the
schools, a declaration that! the state’s
appropriation should be immediately
increased to at least *30,000.
Going any of these things constl
tutes a vitalizatlon of the teacher and
her work. So long as conditions, geo
graphical and educational, remain as
they are now, there will he a genuine
need out on the edge of things to bring
out prospective rural school teachers
In contact with better life, with stim
ulating lecturers and entertainers,
with consecrated instructors, with
true school spirit, and that long, the
junior schools, with their systematic
short-term courses of study, ending in
detlnite aim, should be continued, as a
vital link in the educational plan,
having in view the making of a teach

has been elected, with a raise of sal

place. Superintendent Fleming will
have charge of the science work
this summer. Although a new mem

the less welcomed and his thorough
preparation for the work he will have
charge of here will at once secure for
him popularity among the students.
Educational Notes.
Eighth grade examination will be
held in each village and town, except
Chambers, on Thursday and Friday
May 14 and 15. The subjects given in
this examination are reading, arith
metic, grammar, geography, history,
physiology, mental arithmetic and or
thogophy.
Teacher’s examinations will be held
at Chambers and O’Neill on May 15
and l(i.
A few weeks ago we presented the
fact that the average boy in the coun
try school was not given an equal
chance with his sister in the matter
of being given an opportunity to se
cure even an eighth grade education.
He is allowed to attend less regularly,
given shorter terras and sometimes
given less encouragement. The fact

work at present should be an induoe
ment for many more to prepare t he Ba
sel ves for positions. There is probably
no profession in which good strong
men are needed to fill positions today
than the teaching profession. We
print a oortion of a letter from Presi
dent Crabtree of the State Normal at
Peru: “We must manage in some
way to hold young men in the schools
and to interest a larger number to
enter the teaching profession. There
is a false notion among young men
based on conditions ten or more years
ago that salaries are not in keeping
with salaries in other lines of work.
As a matter of fact teachers receive
very good salaries at the present time,
and principals and superintendents
certainly receive remarkably fine sal
aries. Even the best business positions
seldom pay as well.
“The scarcity of men is increasing
salaries in these best places. Those
who prepare for school supervision
during the next few years will reap a
most excellent harvest. Is it not ottr
duty to look ahead for these young
people, calling their attention to the
opportunities open to them in our
profession.
“We are making a special effort to
inflnence worthy i young men now
teaching to continue their education
and prepare for the better places.
There are so few men, however, teach
ing in the lower schools, we are not
reaching a sufficient number to nil
even the very best places that are
open or that will open in two, three,
four and five years. Would it not be
a kindness to interest high school boys
in teaching as well as in other pro
fessions. ”
