REMARKABLE PROGRESS OF
EDUCATION IN TORTO
RICO.
I)r. Mnrtin U. rirumbaiiRli, Profes
sor of PcdacoRy at tho University of
rPoniiRylvanla. alter an absonco or
oiKliteun monthR in Porto Rico, ar
rived in Philadelphia this week for a
brir visit. It will bo remembered
that Dr. UrumbatiKh wan appointed
United States Commissioner of Ed
ucation In Porto Rico bv the late
President McKlnloy. lie is very en
thusiastic over the immense resources
01 our new colony, wiiicn he says
cannot be equalled elsewhere In the
world. He snid that money Is pouring
into the island, that the people are
happy and patriotically devoted to
the United States government and
American institutions. Thej are
looking forward to securing territor
ial rights, and hope that Porlo Rico
will ultimately be admitted intoruli
statehood.
The work accomplished by the
Comlsslon, ot which Dr. Brumbaugh
is the heud, is most wonder! u I, a
complete change in the educational
system of the Island having been
brought about. The draft of the new
school laws submitted by the Com
missioner were adopted without
change, though they revolutionized
the entire educational system. Dr.
Brumbaugh, 'In a report which he
will submit to President Roosevelt,
says that when civil government was ,
estanllshed. there were only (112
suiioois reported open during some
part of the year. Under the regime
or the United States C'unmislson, a
term of nine months has been main
tained throughout the island and
during the entire llrst school year 75)2
schools were maintained, with an
attendance or :W,000 pupils. The av
erage attendance was 7." per cent,
one per centum h-ss than Massachus
etts ann one per centum more than
Pennsylvania.
The second school year began Sep
tember :i(. 1001 There now arc 082
schools and f0,000 pupils. Everywhere
there is a demand for more schools.
Fo- lMMl-OO the military gncm
nient allotted :i:U),(KK for education.
Of this sum over $30,000 was unex
pended because the proposed number
ol schools was not opened. For 15)00-
01 the civil government gave Dr.
Brumbaugh $400,000. nU lof which
was used jualciuusly. For the pres
ent liscal year $."101,000 is devoted to
education. In additicn to this sum
$2:10,000 has been allotted to the
Commission to erect punlic school
buildings. One year ago theic was
not ono school building in Porto
Rico. Porto Rico now has thirty-
six buiiriings completed and In use, ;
and twelve In process of erection
The insular normal school, at a
cost or $.i:),000, Is being erected.; at
Rio Piedros. 1 he corner stone was
laid November 1 with imposing cere-1
-tmrnttrrTinurn uie prcsu-ice 01 z.uuu 1
porsons. The school is temporarily 1
located In tho summer palace of tho
Govornor, winch Governor Hunt gavo
for educational purposes. He has at
ail times taken the greatest Interest
in the school work.
A summer normal institute was
hold in San Juan Tor ton weeks be
ginning July 4. This lnstltuto was
a remarkable success, more than HOO
pupils, Including moro than 80 per
cent, or all teachers or the island
attended. They did good, honest
work and at the closo, 102 received
certificates to teach. .
In xivory school English is now
taught. The Inhabitants want raoro
toachors or English and more schools.
All pupils sing the American national
hymns and upon all tittlng occasions
tho schools liavo shown enthusiastic
patriotic devotion, notably on Wash
ington's Birthday, Flag Day and
Fonrtn or July. Fully 20.000 children
and as many citizens assembled on
theso occasions In splendid tribute f
Amerloan institutions.
A new school law, passed by the
Insular Legislature, became opera
two April. 12, 11)01. Under its pro
visions trie schools weio thoroughly
reorganized and arc Jn excellent con
dition. About 120 teachers from the
Uulted States at present hold posi
tions in Porto Rlcan schools. Under
the now law the spirit or local con
trol lias been maintained as long
as It is prudent, ana the people
everywhere are in sympathy with
tho schools.
