BE A MISSIONARY 


A missionary distributes good tidings to needy 
souls. In this case, the good tidings consists of 
information concerning the summer meeting of the 
National Education Association, and the needy souls 
are those teachers to whom copies of this Bulletin 
Imay DOt have been sent. We secure lists of teachers 
from as many different sources as possible, but, of 
course, cannot reach all by direct mailing. Please 
extend the notice in the school or system with which 
you are connected, and if you can use extra copies of 
the Bulletin, ask the Secretary for them.

‘travel can be secured. The points at which the boat 


could be taken are Buffalo, Erie, Cleveland, Toledo, 
and Detroit. 

Yellowstone Park tickets will be on sale from all 
sections of the country at this time, and persons in- 
tending to visit the same will secure a Saving of 
from $3.50 to $9.50 by buying round-trip tickets to 
Yellowstone Park from the starting-point, stopping 
off at St. Paul, instead of buying -a round-trip 
ticket to St. Paul and then buying a ticket from there 
to Yellowstone Park. 

Glacier National Park, Montana, is another favor. 
ite tourist attraction and a saving in tickets can be 
effected in the same way indicated above by thoge 
who desire to visit it. 

Mississippi River Steamers.—Some of the teachers 
living along the Mississippi River are. planning to 
make the trip by steamer and to enjoy one of the 
most interesting and marvelous water trips in this 
country. No more ideal vacation could be imagined 
at the close of a school year. Detailed information 
can be secured from the local agent. 

The Canadian Industrial Exhibition, which is the 
annual fair of the Canadian West, will be held im- 
mediately following our meeting. For this exhibition, 
special rates will be granted from St. Paul, and, in 
some cases, a round-trip ticket can be purchased at 
the starting-point for Winnipeg and a saving effected, 
This will afford an excellent opportunity for a large 
number of our teachers to study first hand this great 
Northwest Territory. 

It is suggested that those who expect to attend 
the St. Paul Convention should make early inquiries 
of their local ticket agent concerning the varlou 
railway rates which will be in effect at that time, 

Write your state director for information as to 
special parties,

EXCURSIONS FOR N. E. A. VISITORS 


The meeting of the National Education Associa- 
tion at St. Paul will afford the members an oppor- 
tunity to visit the finest summer vacation territory 
in America. In the Twin Cities, there are attractions 
sufficient to enlist the attention of the visitor for 
many days. Immediately tributary and reached by 
street cars are many of Minnesota’s beautiful lake 
resorts. For those who desire a more extended trip 
after the Convention, there is Yetlowstone National 
Park, Glacier National Park, and the beautiful Puget 
Sound country. 

Stopovers at St. Paul are permitted on round-trip 
tickets to the Yellowstone and Glacier Parks and 
Pacific Coast destinations, and those who intend to 
go further west will save money by buying their 
tickets to the most distant point. 

In connection with the Bureau of Information, a 
special Committee on Excursions will be continually 
present to furnish detailed information regarding 
local excursions and side trips. Arrangements are 
being made by the railroads centering at St. Paul for 
excursions to the various centers of attraction in 
Minnesota. 

Everyone present will desire to visit some of the 
following places: Fort Snelling, the Indian Mounds 
Park, the State Fish Hatcheries, the University of 
Minnesota, University Farms, Como Park, Lake Min- 
netonka, White Bear Lake, Minnehaha Falls, the 
Calhoun Bathing Beach, Wildwood Park, Harriet 
Islands Baths, St. Anthony Falls, the Flour Mills, 
Taylor's Falls, Lake of the Isles, and the Falls of 
St. Croix. 

If you are not familiar with river navigation at 
its best, you will desire to take a trip on some one of 
the Mississippi River steamers. To get the most 
impressive views of the majestic Mississippi River, 
it is suggested that visitors make a trip either to the 
Lake Street Bridge, connecting St. Paul and Min- 
neapolis at the foot of Lake Street, or to the Fort 
Snelling Bridge, from which the view is compre- 
hensive and inspiring. At Lake Street Bridge will 
be seen fine boulevards bordering both sides of the 
river, For those who enjoy walking, a trip over these 
really famous river roads from Lake Street Bridge 
will be found interesting,

At a time to be announced in the official program, 
, reception will be tendered the teachers by the 
State at the Minnesota State Capitol when they will 
be received by Governor Eberhardt and his civil 
and military staffs. The Capitol Building is without 
question one of the architectural masterpieces of the 
country, costing nearly five million dollars. It will 
be open to the visiting teachers during the entire 
week, and guides will be constantly on duty to show 
them thru the building, and to explain the many 
historical and symbolic paintings with which it is 
filled. Among the American painters represented are 
Kenyon Cox, John LaFarge, Howard Pyle, Rufus 
H. Zogbaum, Edwin H. Blashfield, Edward Simmons, 
Douglas Volk, Frank D. Millet, Arthur R. Willett, and 
H. 0. Walker. In addition to the paintings, there are 
numerous pieces of sculpture by Daniel C. French 
and Edward C. Potter. ‘ 

Thursday afternoon at half-past two, in the 
Lodge Room of the Masonic Temple, the Schubert 
Club of St. Paul will tender a complimentary recital, 
presenting a program of compositions by St. Paul 
composers. 

The various women’s clubs of the city will throw 
open their rooms to the visiting teachers. Special 
rest rooms will be provided in the rooms of the Guild 
of Catholic Women in the Wilder Charities Building, 
adjoining the Auditorium, and in the Y. W. C. A. 
Building, directly opposite. 

MINNESOTA 

Public education reflects not only the general 
policy but the ideal of the state. Minnesota provided 
in its constitution for a system of public schools and 
for institutions of higher education, for normal 
schools to train teachers, and for special schools. 
Its educational scheme is in the main similar to that 
of other Mississippi Valley and middle western 
states, The public schools come under three general 
classes; rural schools, graded schools, and high 
«hools, The rural echoole are the most numerous, 
humbering more than seven thousand; they employ 
more teachers and enroll a larger number of pupils 
than any other group of public schools, The graded 
whoola are established in the villagea and cities, 
In these are enrolled about two hundred thousand 
students, The high achoola number two hundred 
Wwenty, Every community in Minnesota with a popu- 
lation of seven hundred and more has a high school, 

ey are a part of the public-school system, are in 
marge measure state-supported, and furnish the finish- 

education for the great number of those who 


ntinue beyond the eighth year of the elementary 
r8@, 


Minnesota’s permanent public school fund is 
$24,400,000, and produces an annual income of 
$1,000,000. This income, together with the general 
state one-mill tax, is distributed annually to public 
schools on the basis of attendance. The last per 
capita distribution was $5,80, or a total of $2,338,434. 

Minnesota was among the first states to provide 
special aid to encourage better standards for public 
schools. High schools were the first to be promoted 
by means of a state subsidy. Thirty-five years ago, 
annual aid of $400 was granted to any school main- 
taining a standard high-school course of four years. 
Since then, the aid and the number of schools has 
increased, until now $2,200 is granted annually to 
each of the two hundred and twenty high schools. 
Graded schools began to be aided in 1896, by $200 
annually. The sum is now $750 for each of two hun- 
dred fifteen graded schools, and an additional sum of 
$500 for such as maintain a two-year high-school 
course. 

Consolidation of rural schools has been encqur- 
aged by state subsidy ranging from $750 to $1,500 
for each school. Of this class there are now more 
than one hundred, after two years’ growth under the 
Holmberg Act. 

State supervision of public schools is had thru 
the inspectors of high and graded schools and a 
rural-school commissioner. Supervision of rural 
schools is by the superintendent of each county, 
elected for a term of four years. Under a recent 
change in the law, the school district is the unit for 
administration and support of all classes of public 
schools. Aside from the state funds, all public 
schools are supported by a local one-mill tax, and 
by special taxes in each district. 

Teachers are trained in the five state normal 
schools, in training departments connected with more 
than one hundred high schools, and in summer terms 
of six weeks held in counties and at the normal 
schools and in connection with branch schools of the 
University, 

Thru the granting of atate aid, it has become 
possible to gradually advance the professional atand- 
urds required of teachers, All elementary teachera 
in connection with high- and graded-school syatema 
will be required in 1915 to have completed a two- 
year professional course in a atate normal achool, 
At the same time, a atandard becomes effective by 
recent legislation which requires all teachers with 
lesa than eighteen months experience to have had 
one year of training for teaching, This latter 
requirement does not apply to teachera who receive 
a certificate of lower rank than first grade. The 
effect of this will be in time to require special

preparation for teaching of all those engaged in 
public-school work. 

The normal schools are supported by state appro- 
priations. In them are enrolled about two thousand 
five hundred students, and each year there are 
graduated between five hundred and six hundred, 
who enter elementary teaching. 

Industrial courses, including instruction in agri- 
culture, home economics, and manual training is 
encouraged thru state subsidy, and have been intro- 
duced in connection with a hundred and fifty high 
and graded schools. The annual aid is $1,800 or 
$2,500, depending upon the extent to which the work 
is carried on. Provision is made whereby extension 
work in this line is carried on in rural schools under 
the supervision of the central school. 

A state education commission is now engaged in 
revising the school laws, making a study of school 
administration, seeking to devise a better working 
unit for school organization, and to suggest an equi- 
table arrangement for the raising and distribution of 
state support for public schools. 


UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA 


Summer Session, June 15-July 24, 1914 

Few universities in this country have grown in 
the last twenty years with the same rapidity as the 
University of Minnesota. In number of students and 
in faculty membership it has increased most 
markedly. The state has not been behind in enlarg- 
ing the material equipment. Within a few years the 
Campus has been doubled by the purchase of a dozen 
or fifteen city blocks lying to the east along the bank 
of the Mississippi.. Several millions of dollars have 
been spent in the same time in new buildings for the

The new Central High School was opened during 
the year. It is located at Fourth Avenue South and

car line. The building and equipment cost $765,000. 
It is a model of efficiency and simplicity, and will be

spection of visitors. The George Bancroft, another 
model building, is the elementary school located at 
Fourteenth Avenue South and Thirty-eighth Street. 
It is reached by the Bloomington Avenue car line.

EXHIBITS 

School—The exhibits of the St. Paul public 
schools will be found in the Madison School building. 
These exhibits will cover both grade- and high-school 
work. 

Library—Under the direction of the United States 
Bureau of Education, there was prepared for the 
méeting of the American Library Association re- 
cently held in Washington an exhibit covering all 
the various phases of library work in connection 
with the different classes of schools. This exhibit 
will be shown at St. Paul at a place which will be 


. announced in the official program. 


Child Labor—If the itinerary can be properly 
arranged, it is expected that an exhibit which has 
been prepared by the National Child Labor Commit- 
tee telling the story of the high cost of child labor 
will be shown at St. Paul. 

Blind—There will be an exhibit of the work of the 
pupils of the Minnesota School for the Blind at 
Faribault, Minn., under the direction of James J. 
Dow, Superintendent. The place will be noted in 
the official program. 

Commercial Exhibit Auxiliary—As announced in 
the April Bulletin, it has been decided to establish 
as one of the features of the National Education 
Association meetings a systematized exhibit of school 
equipment and school supplies. The exhibit at St. 
Paul will be in the Armory and the number of com- 
mercial houses which have already decided on the 
space they will occupy indicates that it will be an 
extremely interesting feature of our summer meet- 
ing. Owing to the short time since this exhibit was 
definitely decided upon, it has been impossible to 
mature plans to such an extent as to enable us to 
give a complete list of exhibitors in this Bulletin. 
They will appear in the official program at St. Paul.

NOTES 

If you can use extra copies of the Bulletin, please 
send to the Secretary for the same. 

If the readers of this Bulletin have questions 
concerning the meeting which are not answered, 
please make your wants known to the Secretary. 

Any state director or any member of his Commit- 
tee on Co-operation will be glad to answer questions 
concerning probable special parties to St. Paul. 

The meetings of the National Education Associa- 
tion are of interest to three classes of people— 
teachers, school board members, and school patrons. ° 
The efficiency of school systems would be materially 
increased if school boards adopted the policy of 
sending one of their members to every meeting of 
the state teachers association and of the National 
Education Association. The expenses would be 
slight compared with the benefits. It would pay to 








8 THE N. E. 


place a copy of the annual Proceedings in each school 
building and then require teachers to make use of 
it in ‘connection with teachers meetings. Too many 
teachers familiarize themselves with material per- 
taining to the grade or class of work they are pre- 
senting, but do not possess a sufficient grasp of the 
entire educational problem to see the relationship of 
their work to the general scheme, Women's clubs 
and parent-teacher organizations are concerning 
themselves with school problems to an ever increas- 
ing extent, If representatives of such associations 
should attend state and national educational meet- 
ings, their reporta would greatly increase the use- 
fulness of the clubs to the local school system, 


COMMITTEE ON RESOLUTIONS 


In order that members of the National Education 
Association may have some advance information as 
to the subject-matter of the resolutions to be pre- 
sented, the Chairman submits the following list of 
topics upon which requests have been received for 
some action by the Committee: 

1. Vocational Education, including Social Guidance. 

2. The Extension of Medical Inspection, including 

Dental Inspection. 

The Continuation School. 

Recreation Activities in Public Schools. 

The Social Center Movement. 

Home and School Improvement Associations. 

The Teaching of Sex Hygiene, 

The Peace Movement, 

. The National University. 

10. Legislation Concerning Contracts for School 
Buildings and Improvements, including Regula- 
tions for Architecture. 

11. A resolution has come from the supervisors of 
music requesting the National Education Asso- 
ciation to indorse the effort to bring about a 
uniform rendition of our national songs and 
calling upon Congress thru the Bureau of Edu- 
cation to provide the method of securing an 
official form of these patriotic songs. 

Members of the National Education Association 
desiring consideration of particular resolutions will 
confer a favor if they will send a draft of such 
resolutions either to the Chairman, or to any member 
of the Committee. The Committee will hold its meet- 
ings at St. Paul and hopes to have the final form of 
the resolutions at an early date.
