As such it is an ideal home for the teachers’ training school that proposes to equip men and women for the school work in that section of the State. The village is twenty miles from Erie and seven miles from Cambridge Springs. It is connected with these towns by an interurban car line with hourly service. It is but a step, then, from the great railway systems of the Middle West and at the same time enjoys a pleasant remoteness, a slight se­ clusion, that is thoroughly consistent with good student work. E THE VILLAGE he village is progressive. Its influences are for good. It has an T old and well established citizenship. It was founded in 1796 by sturdy New England stock, whose mark is readily traced in the community today. The village bears the inevitable stamp of the school town; it has been known as a place of learning for many years. THE LAKE ake Edinboro lies just north of the village. Exactly what part it has played in the last fifty years in the spirit and tradition L of the school would be hard to estimate. It is a charming sheet of fresh water, the second largest in the State, and calls visitors from many miles around. It affords a restful field for recreation with its boating, bathing, and fishing. THE SCHOOL he early establishment of an academy in 1857 was a manifes­ tation of the pioneer spirit that characterized all early American life. Somebody has said that our pioneers always built a church at one end of their town and a school at the other. T Page nine 1 THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL I In such spirit was the academy founded in 1857- It became the Edinboro State Normal School in 1861. For fifty-two years it has held a high place in the educational life of its particular district; while its sons and daughters have held positions of trust from one end of the land to the other. Haven Hall —Kupper PURPOSE he primary purpose of the school is the training of teachers. In a more particular sense it plans to equip teachers for the T Twelfth Normal School District, which embraces the counties of Lawrence, Mercer, Venango, Crawford, and Erie. There is m the right sort of normal school not only the specific and technical training, but also a training along broad and cultural lines that Page ten THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL must be the basis of all effective teaching and the basis of life as well. If the schools are to meet the needs of the people and be in close sympathy with common life, the teachers must be people trained not only in mathematics but in manhood, not only in liter­ ature but in life. The fact that the mass of the older alumni of the school are engaged in all the varied fields of life is but proof of the efficiency of the normal school. Broadly speaking, therefore, there are two aims in the pur­ pose of the Edinboro State Normal School: to send its graduate out with a confidence born of a thorough knowledge of method and of matter; and in the second place, to imbue him with the spirit of the true teacher—the teacher who can thrill his pupils with glimpses of new horizons and broader visions. THE FACULTY or the accomplishment of this chief aim of the school, the Board of Trustees maintains a faculty consisting of experi­ F enced teachers that are not only leaders in their various deparL ments, but are also able demonstrators of method. They are men of wide training in American colleges and universities, and above all are men whose hearts are in their work. While there is a special department devoted to the technical phases of method, each class is a practical laboratory of demonstration. THE STUDENTS fter a visitor has seen the recitation rooms, the library, and A the dormitories, after he has interviewed the faculty and the trustees, he will not be said to know the school unless he sees the students themselves. In inviting the young men and the young women of the Twelfth Normal School to join the students at Edinboro, the authorities feel that in the earnest company of students is the chief lure. When all is said, it is on the students that the real worth of the school must rest; and in the Edinboro State Normal School there is, by the common consent of all who know, a splendid body of students. Page eleven THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL “STUDENT INTERESTS” tudent interests” is a name that has arisen in the last gener^ ation to describe the phases of student activities that are not especially directed by the faculty. It embraces all forms of athletics, dramatic interests, and student publications. In all these branches the students at the Edinboro State Normal School maintain vigorous and healthful activities. The gymnasium and athletic teams are intended to benefit the entire body of students, the dramatic and publication fields are open to those who have particular interest in these departments. In this group must also be placed the orchestra, the literary societies, the Young Women’s Christian Association, and the Young Men’s Christian Association. All of these organizations are well suported and add much to the school life. The Student Council Page twelve THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL DISCIPLINE he institution is maintained for the students. Only such regu­ T lations are made as tend to serve the welfare of its patrons. Discipline is as nearly voluntary as possible. Students are ex­ pected to conduct themselves as would be fitting for those enter­ ing one of the noblest vocations of men. LIVING t has been said that he is a wise man who knows how to rest wisely. In Reeder and Haven Halls the boys and girls at Edinboro have the advantages of a home atmosphere, and of association with cultured men and women. The authorities en­ deavor to maintain during study hours the best possible condi­ tions for study; outside of study hours, they endeavor just as earnestly to maintain an atmosphere of happy contentment, m surroundings that are inspiring and ^ uplifting. The weekly sing,” just after supper on Thursday night, has become a feature of Edinboro life. I GROLFNDS AND BUILDINGS he campus of the school embraces thirty-one acres of pleas­ antly situated land. On it may be found specimens of practically all the native trees—many of which represent over half a century of growth. Their care is the particular pride of certain officers of the school; their beauty constitutes no snrnll part of the agreeable setting of the buildings. In addition to the carefully graded and well kept lawns, there are several tennis courts and a large athletic field. At the rear of the campus is the pro ­ ductive model farm. , , -j .,1 .,1. U1 The buildings are nine in number, besides the thoroug^hly modern heating plant and electric power house. In order of their age they are; T COMMERCIAL. HALL Commercial Hall is the original academy building. Page thirteen It was gl ' ................ THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL L erected in 1857. It stands at the northwest corner of the campus. It is a substantial frame building which houses the two literarysociety halls and the commercial department. Care has kept it in perfect condition, a useful memorial of the days of the foun­ dation. SCIENCE HALL Science Hall, a frame building, was constructed in 1858. It accommodates the physical and chemical laboratories, the large examination hall, a large lecture room, and various rooms for sup­ plies. While the old hall will undoubtedly make way for a new science hall in the near future, it will be long before its lines of happy symmetry and general air of quaintness will fade from the minds of those who know it. SOUTH HALL South Hall isjhe last of the old dormitories. Built in i860, it was the center of school life for many generations. It has been abandoned as a student dormitory since the building of the modern halls. It is now used for storage, and as a home for the caretakers of the other halls. Old South Hall, with its great chimneys, forms a picturesque background for the newer group of buildings. MUSIC HALL Well separated from the other buildings. Music Hall affords an admirable home for the department of music. It was built in 1862, and remodeled in 1878. It contains a pleasant assembly hall, practice rooms, and instructors’ studios. NORMAL HALL Normal Hall was built in 1875. In 1891 it was greatly en­ larged. It contains the chapel, the library, and the executive offices of the school. It is the largest building of the group. The seating capacity of the chapel is over one thousand. Pafe fourteen THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL RECITATION HALL. 3 Recitation Hall is a monument to the originality of J. A. Cooper, ex-Principal of the normal school, who for thirty years was the best known man in common-school life of Western Pennsylvania. It has six pleasant recitation rooms. All the rooms on the first floor open out of doors so that it is impos­ sible for a student to pass from one class to another without going into the fresh air. It was built in 1880. HAVEN HALL In 1903 a modern dormitory for the young women was con­ structed. It is a four-story structure of substantial quality. Steam heat and electric light render the hall very comfortable. Its direction and care both aim to make it a real home for the young women. The dining hall, for both boys and girls, occu­ pies the first, or basement floor. THE GYMNASIUM The Gymnasium, built in 1906, is a thoroughly modern and practical building, with excellent equipment in the way of locker rooms, baths, and apparatus. As the center of athletic interests, it fulfills its purpose in ministering to the needs of the physical side of school life. REEDER HALL Reeder Hall, named in honor of one of the early builders of the school, is the latest of the group. It was completed in 1907. In consists of three stories given over to dormitory purposes for the boys; a large and well lighted basement makes a practical home for the manual training department. Here, as in Haven Hall, the aim is to make pleasant the social life of the students. As great a measure of liberty is allowed as is consistent with the rights of all the young men who occupy it.

DEPARTMENT OF PEDAGOGY Mr. Freeland, Miss Gillespie, Mr, Baker, THE TRAINING SCHOOL, It is the aim of the Training Department to give prospective teachers practice in teaching under the best methods. Individual work and originality on the part of the practice teachers is put at a premium, but instruction in the best methods of teaching each subject is given. All teaching is done in the Edinboro Public School, and this makes the work more real than that of the ordi­ nary model school. Each teacher is supposed to take full charge Base Ball Page thirty-one THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL of the room while teaching, and no interference or help is given, unless it is evident that she is unable to discipline and give proper instruction. Then, of course, the critic teacher is at hand to take charge. The discipline of the pupils is made as easy as possible. Every chance for freedom is given to them. We believe that the more discipline, as such, is necessary the less learning is possible. Every child is encouraged to act upon his best impulses, to feel free tO do what he thinks is right. We believe that the best disciplined room is the one in which every one is free to do as he pleases, and yet does not please to disturb any one else. All the children are led to love the school, to feel that it is a place for pleasant activity and the exercise of their powers. The course of study is made as flexible as possible. Manual training, music and drawing are taught in all the grades, by practice teachers under the supervision of the instructors in these branches at the Normal. PRIMARY METHODS This course will take up the special methods that are neces­ sary with primary grades. Special attention will be given to the primary course of study, the different methods of teaching primary reading, arithmetic, spelling, etc. Observation and practice in the training school will be a part of the course. SCHOOL HYGIENE Teachers are being called upon more than ever to consider the physical care of the children under them. This course will take up such topics as the “Hygiene of the Teacher,” the care of children’s eyes, teeth, etc.; air, fatigue, and the best methods of mental work. PSYCHOLOGY The fundamental mental structures are taken up in this course; including among others, sensation, perception, emotion. Page thirty-two THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL the will, habit, attention, and memory. The chief stress is placed upon function, that is, how the mind works and acts, especially in the learning process. A text is used but the basis of the work is made up of a number of different books, which are re­ ferred to in the library. METHODS OP TEACHING This class is carried on in connection with the teaching prac­ tice in the model school. Its aim is to furnish a basis for prac­ tical work in the class room rather than a theoretical discussion of education. Questions concerning discipline, and special plans are discussed. The text used is Charter’s “Methods”. Two hours, for two terms. HISTORY OP EDUCATION An epitome of the educational world from the dawn of history to the present time is taken in this course. This is followed by a more careful study of the great educators of each great epoch of the world’s history. Such persons as Plato, Jesus, Quin­ tilian, Dante, Luther, Bacon, Commenius, Rousseau, Locke, Froebel, Herbart, and Horace Mann, are discussed with stress upon the features in our modern systems, which originated through them. Five hours; Spring term. SOPHOMORE METHODS Roark’s method in Education is covered by this class during the first half year. It is understood that Sophomores, who are not soon to put their work in practice will not remember many facts from their study of methods. We strive, therefore, to develop an ability to think. The last part of the course is spent on presenting reports, of different subjects which the class chooses. Everyone in the class is supposed to read something in the library for each report. Two members make special pre­ paration for each report, reading the material that the library Pige thirty-three THE EOINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL affords upon this special topic. Discussions and criticisms follow the report. Winter Sport 1 Mean SCHOOL LAW AND SCHOOL MANAGEMENT In School Management Seeley’s Text is covered. In school law the Pennsylvania code of 1911. The class seems to be able to finish the management section in the two first terms, and the spring term is given up to school law. METHODS IN HISTORY This course is developed on the basis of organization as the chief factor in teaching and studying history. The work con­ sists largely in the organization of the subject matter of history in the grades. No text is used but the work is based largely on McMurry’s “How to Study and Teaching How to Study.” Pa^e thirty-four THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL LI METHODS IN GEOGRAPHY The work of this course consists mainly in planning type lessons for the various grades. Home geography, map study, illustrative materials in geography and the correlation of geog­ raphy are emphasized. HOW TO STUDY For the benefit of teachers who wish to prepare for Pro­ visional Certificates, in the Spring term of 1915, Mr. Baker will offer a course based on McMurry’s “How to Study and Teach­ ing How to Study,” twelve weeks, three hours a week. DEPARTMENT OF LATIN Mr. Barnes and Mr. Sackett, Miss Swenarton, Miss Roberts From the beginning accuracy in pronunciation and in know­ ledge of inflectional forms is rigidly required. The work of the entire first year is designed to render the student sufficiently familiar with accidence and elementary constructions to enable him to begin the reading of connected prose narrative with intelli­ gence and possibly with pleasure. The passing requirements of this portion of the course are purposely exacting. No students whose attainments are not such as to allow them to pursue the study of the subject with profit will be admitted to the classes of the second year. The intention of this statement is definitely insisted upon. The prescribed reading of Caesar, Cicero, and Vergil is stated elsewhere. The work of classes, however, is not limited to this. Selected portions of text from the authors named, and from other Latin writers, are used in addition, and an attempt is made to develop an intelligent appreciation of the significance of literature and to aid the student in forming correct conceptions of literary culture. The efforts of the instructor are constantly directed to developing the ability to read Latin, i. e., to recognize Fa^e thirty-five THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL the thought in its Latin dress, and to feel the exact force of con­ struction, idiom and arrangement. Translation is required more as a test of accuracy in this than as an end in itself. Versifica­ tion and formal grammar receive due attention. Informal daily talks by the instructor upon phases of Roman religion, history, politics, literature, or everyday life that the text suggests contri­ bute something, perhaps, to the stimulation of interest in the subject and to the encouragement of independent investigation. DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS Mr. S'iddell, Mr. Sackett, Mr. Stancliffe A study of the cause for just complaint on the part of teach­ ers of advanced mathematics leads one to believe that the trouble is directly traceable to poor work in elementary mathematics. Ac­ cordingly the aim here is to develop strength of work in both mental and written arithmetic, in algebra and in geometry. If a Arbor Day —Mears Page thirty-six THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL strong foundation is laid in these branches, the advanced coursp in mathematics in normal school, college, or technical school will not present insurmountable difficulties to the student, nor will county and state examiners of prospective teachers find indica­ tions of lamentable weakness in these subjects. To this end, thoroughness in all work is the watch-word. An attempt to “humanize” the various subjects is made by choosing suitable illustrative problems for the topics under discussion. ARITHMETIC In arithmetic work is given in the first and last years of the course. In the first year daily recitations are held throughout two terms. The aim is to develop accuracy, facility, and rapidity of work, both oral and written. Clearness and conciseness of explanation are insisted upon; also absolute truthfulness in the use of equations. Rules as such are not learned but are logically evolved; thus the “why” explains and helps to establish the “how” in the mind of the student. The work in written arithmetic, in which considerable oral work is also done, is supplemented by a separate course in mental arithmetic, where in addition to skill and facility in work, power of concentrated attention and continued retention are the ends sought. Students frequently attest the value of this work in increased efficiency in other lines of work. The work in arithmetic given in the last year of the course aims to equip teachers thoroughly for work in the grades. As a means to this end, a general review of the subject is given, but the work is broader and deeper than that of the first year, and includes work on the pedagogy of the subject, to which a term’s work is given. ALGEBRA In algebra the student is led inductively to enlarged and dif­ ferent number concepts, and to understand and interpret the underlying principles and to apply them intelligently. Algebra and arithmetic are closely correlated. This course seeks to make Page thirty-seven 11 the edinboro state normal school ------------------------------------------- -------------------------- ------- 13 easy and gradual the transition from the inductive type of thought in arithmetic to the deductive form of reasoning in geometry. The solution of problems accurately stated is espe­ cially emphasized. Students before entering should have com­ pleted a full year’s work in algebra as far as quadratics, so that the usual amount required for college entrance can be com­ pleted in one year. For the benefit of those who have not had this amount of preparatory work classes for beginners are pro­ vided. PLANE GEOMETRY Plane geometry is studied throughout the second year. A love of truth for truth’s sake should be one of the results of a proper study of geometry. With this end in view accuracy in definition, logical reasoning, clearness of expression, and authoriy for. statements are insisted upon. Self-reliance and power of initiative are developed by original exercises. Believing that the potver to attack and solve original exercises is the true test of one’s geometric ability, it has been and will be the plan of the teachers to make extensive use of such exercises, choosing, how­ ever, a large number of exercises involving a few principles each, rather than a much smaller number of very difficult problems, inasmuch as greater benefits result to the student from such a course of procedure. SOLID GEOMETRY The work in solid geometry covers half the third year and follows the same lines as indicated in plane geometry. In teach­ ing the subject a happy medium is sought between non-use of mathematical solids and excessive use of the same, thus stimu­ lating but not demoralizing the student’s power to form geometric concepts. Locus problems are emphasized in both plane and solid geometry. TRIGONOMETRY One-half year is devoted to the study of trigonometry. The Page thirty-eight THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL work includes definitions and relations of the six trigonometric functions as ratios, circular measure of angles, proofs of the principal formulas, solution of trigonometric equations, theory and use of logarithms, and the solution of right and oblique triangles with practical applications. METHODS IN ARITHMETIC As this course of study follows logically the review of arith­ metic required by seniors, so in point of time, it is given in the winter term following the completion of the review of the sub­ ject matter in the fall term. The aim of the course is the prepa­ ration of efficient teachers of arithmetic in both primary and grammar grades. The course includes assigned readings on the history and development of the teaching of arithmetic, lectures, reports, illustrative lessons by pupil teachers with criticisms, class discussion, the writing of lesson plans and lesson sketches. Emphasis is placed on the actual teaching work and criticisms thereof. ADVANCED ALGEBRA This course is designed for three classes of students, (i) those college preparatory students who desire to offer for college entrance the maximum amount required by any college or techni­ cal school, (2) normal school students who are graduates of first grade high schools and who wish additional work in mathematics without duplicating previous courses, (3) other students electing mathematics. The course will extend throughout the year, the work of the first semester being comparable to what is some­ times designated “intermediate algebra” and that of the second semester to “advanced algebra”. The aim of the course will be to prepare prospective college students for the most exacting college entrance requirements and to expose all to the wonders and beauties of algebra that are wholly unsuspected by those discontinuing the study of algebra on or before studying quadratics. In the first semester the work will include a review of quadratics, ration and propor­ tion, theory of exponents, imaginaries, evolution, theory of quadPage thirty-nine THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL ratios, graphical interpretation of quadratics, binomial theorem for fractional and negative exponents, arithmetic and geometric progressions. The work of the second semester will include undetermined coefficients, permutations and combinations, determinants of the second, third, and fourth orders, general theory of equations, and the solution of higher numerical equations. DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH Mr. LaBounty, Miss Swenarton, Miss Bauman The aim of the department of English is to develop skill in clean and strong English for everyday use. While courses are given in the classics and in the historical aspects of the subject, the aim of accuracy in speech and writing is ever kept in view. Much time is spent to fix the student’s attention on details, and to develop for him a sense of form. Originality of thought is encouraged. Simplicity and naturalness are insisted upon. English is taught from the standpoint of usefulness, rather than from that of ornament. FRESHMAN COURSE A. Grammar in its elementary phases is studied. The course deals with the inflectional sides of the language. Analysis is taught as an aid to construction only. While it must be largely a reflective study, every endeavor is made to make the work practical, to make it a help in the full expression of thought. Krapp’s and Patrick’s texts are used. B. Reading as expression is taught in the winter terms. A systematic study of the various types of literary composition is made. The best expression of meaning is the one object of the course. C. Spelling is studied as an important art. Four periods a week are devoted to a careful consideration of rules and pho­ netics. It is the purpose of the instructor to develop conscience and pride in a matter that is often slighted. Pagre forty THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL Before the Game —Mears SOPHOMORE COURSE A. Composition is taught throughout the sophomore year. Theory and practice are united. One term is devoted to theme writing alone. Brief papers are prepared as daily exercises. Practice in verse writing is found to maintain interest, to increase knowledge of simple verse forms, and to develop skill in the arrangement of sentence elements. For a portion of the year, diary writing is followed with interest; this assures constant exercise, which is most important. The text of Lockwood and Emerson is used for a part of the work. Each student is required to own, and is expected to use Wooley’s “Handbook of Composition.” B. The classics designated as college entrance requirements are studied as a part of this course. JUNIOR COURSE A. A study of the history of English literature is made in Page forty-one THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL the winter term. A knowledge of the great periods is insisted upon. A general acquaintance with books and their authors is required. Regular classroom work is supplemented by reading in the library. Halleck’s “History of English Literature” is used. B. A similar course in American literature occupies four hours weekly in the spring term. The text is Halleck’s “Ameri­ can Literature.” SENIOR COURSE A. A rapid review of grammar, with special emphasis on sentence structure, is required of all seniors. The course is given in the winter term. Each student compiles a catalog of faulty expressions which arouses considerable interest, and cures many faults by simply calling the attention of those who are in error to their lapses in diction and sentence structure. Various texts are consulted. B. In the spring term a course is given in methods in gram­ mar. The history of the subject is considered. A general ac­ quaintance with various texts is expected. Theories of classroom presentation of the subject are discussed. Individual members of the class are required to present plans for typical recitations. C. Public speaking is given in the senior year under the direction of the instructor in oratory. The various forms of public address are analyzed. Original work is required. Each student makes one public appearance in the course of the year. ADVANCED ENGLISH A. The first two terms of advanced English are devoted to a study of the great literary forms of poetry. The ballad, sonnet, lyric, epic, drama are considered. At least one great example of each is studied in detail. B. One term of advanced English is devoted to daily para­ graph writing. Subjects of great diversity are assigned, always with a view to provoking original thought and allowing variety of treatment. Each paper is read and briefly commented upon before the class. Pa^e forty-two THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL ORATORY DEPARTMENT Miss Bauman. The department of oratory offers a great inducement to stu­ dents desiring a partial or complete course in expressive reading and public speaking. In this course an effort is made to establish high ideals of expression and interpretation. This course aims not only to train the pupil in the mechanics of reading, articulation, pronunciation, fluency, readiness, but to stimulate imagination, quicken responsiveness, and increase the power of getting thought from the printed page. The work requires two years for completion. FIRST YEAR 1. Exercise for proper standing, sitting, walking, etc. Responsive drill. Pantomime. 2. Voice Culture. Physiological study of the instrument of voice; correct breathing; exercises to develop freedom, range, purity, and radiation. 3. Expression. Volumes I. and II. “Evolution of Expres­ sion,” Emerson. 4. Shakespeare. Literary and interpretive study of “As You Like It.” 5. Gesture. Study of gesture and its relation to expression. French and Italian system used. SECOND YEAR 1. Physical Culture. Emerson system of physical culture; pantomime; responsive drill. 2. Voice Culture. Work for animation, smoothness and sim­ plicity ; exercises for musical quality of speaking voice. 3. Shakespeare. Interpretive study of “Hamlet.” 4. Expression. Volumes III. and IV. “Evolution of Ex­ pression,” Emerson. Recitals. Pa^e forty-three Oratory Students —Kupper 5. Impersonation. 6. Gesture. Continuation of first year’s work. 7. Dramatic Art. Stage management; play rehearsals; make-up. 8. Oratory. Public speaking; addresses, debate; etc. Students graduating from this department must have had a course of at least twenty-four private lessons and make two or more public appearances as public readers. “THE ART OP STORY TELLING” This is a course designed to meet the needs of the teacher in the grades and high school. It quickens the imagination, develops the insight into literature, incites growth in the spirit of litera­ ture instead of slavish dependence on the letters of the selection. Page forty-four THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL It causes the story-teller to see clearly and think deeply and present the great points of the story. The stories studied will be the world studies that have influenced the race. They will be taken up in sequence and their relation to the spiritual develop­ ment of the race will be shown. Text: “Story-Telling,” by Lyman. DEPARTMENT OF SCIENCE Mr. Snyder, Mr. Baker, Mr. Standiffe PHYSICS In the new four year course, physics is required during the entire third year. The work is covered by laboratory practice and recitation supplemented by current articles on new inventions. The new physical laboratory is fully equipped for thirty indi­ vidual experiments of the National Physics Course, and by the group system many more can be performed. Each student is required to perform and present a well written report on twentyfive experiments, and is encouraged to perform more for which due credit is given. A small laboratory fee of fifty cents the term is charged to cover breakage and add to the equipment. The lecture table apparatus is well suited to cover nearly every phase of the subject. The whole course is very practical, as it deals with the phenomena of everyday life, and aims to associate the physics of the home with that of the universe. In every way possible the student is led to see the great economic value that a more intimate knowledge of nature’s laws will afford mankind. ZOOLOGY In the four year course, zoology is required for at least fifty full periods during the second year. Graduates of first grade high schools are admitted to the third year; hence are not required to study the subject. The work is covered by an outline study of the relation between plant and animal life. Herrick’s text is followed in the study of types, and special attention is given to the habits, food, chief characteristics, and reproduction of the Page forty-five THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL branch that each type introduces. The economic importance of each branch is given great prominence, and ways and means for exterminating the harmful, and increasing the beneficial animals are discussed. Laboratory work is taken up as far as time per­ mits. The chief aim in this course is to create an interest in nature, train the powers of observation, study the effect of envi­ ronment and habit upon animals, and thereby learn how to keep man supreme in the animal kingdom. CHEMISTRY Chemistry is required in the fourth year of the new course, forty weeks, five class hours a week. Three class hours are de­ voted to classroom work and two to laboratory exercises. The class work consists of discussion of prepared lessons, demonstra­ tion by the intructor, and solution of simple chemical problems. Each student is required to perform in the laboratory at least thirty-five experiments chosen from the list accepted by the college entrance board. BOTANY The subject of botany is required for at least two terms of the second year of the four-year course. The work includes laboratory and garden practice in connection with the text. Andrews’ text is used to outline the work, and a careful study of the methods of reproduction, growth, and ecology of plants is made. The economic importance of food plants is discussed, and the best methods for their cultivation is considered. Circu­ lars and bulletins by government experts are consulted for the most up-to-date information. As the collection and analysis of a large number of plants tends to exterminate the species, not more than fifteen specimens that illustrate family characteristics are required. An effort is made to arouse an interest in agriculture and horticulture, and to that end the school garden and its aims are considered. Actual practice in planting, feeding, and culti­ vating is carried on as far as time permits. Pace forty*8ix Q------------- ' II THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL tL------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------AGRICULTURE AND NATURE STUDY Mr. Snyder Agriculture is required for two full terms, four periods a week. Three periods are given to recitation and discussion and one to laboratory practice. Twenty experiments covering the propagation of plants; soils and soil solutions; preparation of insecticides and fungicides, together with the actual use of the Babcock milk tester, are required. Warren’s “Elements of Agri­ culture” is used as a basis for the text requirements. A suitable text in nature study will be used in addition. Active membership in the Normal Bird Club, in which the economic importance of our native birds is studied, is urgently desired of all. SCHOOL GARDEN COURSE Mr. Snyder The course consists of discussion and laboratory periods. The discussions take up the purpose and practice of the work; the planning and planting of the garden; the need and use of plant food; the methods of handling children in gardens, and civic problems involved in such cases. Insect life and methods of control suitable for children will be considered. The laboratory work will cover the use and care of tools; ways of determining proper planting depths; the construction and use of simple apparatus for indoor and outdoor gardens; and busy work for all grades. In the garden, each student will receive practice in spad­ ing, planting, and caring for a plot of suitable size for children. The course is offered during the spring term only as an elec­ tive and requires twelve full weeks, five hours a week. A small laboratory fee will be charged to cover cost of materials used. GEOLOGY Geology is offered in the Junior year as a substitute for either Solid Geometry or Trigonometry, and is required for twenty weeks, five hours a week. Page forty-seven r~ ---------- 0 THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL L ASTRONOMY Astronomy is offered in the Junior year as a substitute for either Solid Geometry or Trigonometry, and is given during the second half, twenty weeks, five hours a week. MUSIC DEPARTMENT Miss Thomas, Miss Berst, Mr. Weissert This department offers three courses; viz., a course in piano­ forte, vocal course and a Supervisor’s course in Public School music. The time required for each of these courses is about two years. PIANOFORTE The course includes the study of the instrument, harmony, and history of music. The technical work in scales, rhythm, thirds, sixths, tenths; chords, all forms, arpeggios, octaves, studies of Kaulau, dementi, Loeschhorn, Czerny, Duvernoy, Matthews, Kohler, Heller, and Sonatas of Beethoven, Mozart, etc., are supplemented by pieces selected from the best composers. Some time is devoted to ensemble playing, transposition, memorizing and accompanying. VOICE The work in voice training consists of breath control, tone formation and placement, flexibility of the voice, sight reading and public performance. Vocalizes of Viardot, Sieber, Concone, Lutgen, Marchesi, Spicker, and others are used and songs both modern and classic, are studied. The student is required to appear on the programs of the recitals given from time to time and to belong to one of the glee clubs of the school. SUPERVISOR’S COURSE Much emphasis is laid on our course in Public School Music. This course requires voice training, harmony, observation and practice teaching (which is done in our large model school) and Page forty-eight B __ THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL history of music. One year and one term is given to prepara­ tion and observation and in the remaining two terms the prac­ tice teaching is done. Students who take this course find it a most interesting one. STATE AID State aid may be had for all class work in the Supervisor’s course, hence the tuition is small, the private voice lessons being the only expense to the student. BAR TRAINING CLASS An entertaining class is held for those taking the Public School Music course but each one taking either vocal or instrumental work is urged to attend this class as much benefit may be derived from the work done here. HARMONY One year of harmony is required for these courses. The textbook, Emery’s Elements of Harmony, is completed during this time. NORMAL MUSIC CLASSES Five periods a week for ten weeks is given the freshman class for the study of fundamentals of music, sight singing and chorus work. Three periods a week during the fall term is given by the senior class to the review of fundamentals of music, a grading of problems, methods of presentation and practice teaching. ORCHESTRA A student orchestra is maintained which meets once a week for rehearsal under the direction of the head of the department. This orchestra plays each morning in chapel and for school Pagre forty-nine THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL The Orchestra —Kupper functions. The membership is free and all music is furnished by the school. GLEE CLUB The membership requirement of this organization is the ability to read ordinary music. VIOLIN, PIPE ORGAN, ETC. For those desiring to study pipe organ, violin, etc., an in­ structor is available. MODEL PIANO PUPILS A limited number of children will be admitted into the music department as model students for teachers in piano, who are THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL receiving supervised instruction in teaching. These pupils will be charged $3.50 per term for two private lessons per week. Ap­ plication should be made to the Director of the Music Depart­ ment before the opening of the term by those wishing places as model students. CLASS LESSONS IN VIOLIN Arrangements have been made whereby beginners on the violin can receive class instruction at a very reduced rate. It is the wish of the department to create a greater interest in violin, cornet and other orchestra and band instruments and make it possible for children to have instruction in the study of these instruments at a cost within the reach of all. VIOLIN, CORNET Private lessons in these instruments are given at the same rate as piano instruction. Shorter periods for private instruction for beginners can be arranged. HISTORY Mr. Sackett Though the study of history in secondary schools must in­ clude the memorizing of historical facts, it should also include the examination of the relation of those facts to one another as cause to effect. The most profitable study of history selects such facts as best explain the great movements in human pro­ gress. It tends to exclude what is merely dramatic and inter­ esting for what is significant and illuminating. The skill to make a selection of what is most important is gradually developed in the student by the emphasis which the instructor lays upon the important events and movements. No one method is employed to the exclusion of other methods. No one phase of human progress is empahasized to the exclusion of other phases; for example, constitutional history is not taught to the exclusion of industrial history; the effort is rather, so far as the limited allowPage fifty-one THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL ance of time permits, to present history as a harmonious whole. Recourse is had to fac-similes and translations of original documents to secure more of the historical atmosphere. Second­ ary sources of history are also drawn upon to broaden the con­ ception of the student. The school is gradually adding to its equipment the best helps in history. The courses are: Ancient and Mediaeval. 1. As much as is offered under this heading in Myer’s General History. Modern. 2. As much as is offered in Myers’s General History under this heading. United States. 3. As much as is offered in Morris, Channing, or Elson, McLaughlin. 4. English History. CIVICS Mr. Sackett The aim of the course in civics is to give the students a prac­ tical working knowledge of American political institutions. A text is used as the basis of the work, and this is supplemented by lectures, independent study on the part of the student, and open classroom discussions. An effort is made to lead the students to think for themselves about political questions. GERMAN Miss Roberts The courses in German are primarily general culture courses, leading the student to a deeper interest in a life and a language differing from his own. Aside from the prescribed course, the instructor gives numerous short talks upon the legends, life, and customs of the German people, which generally lead to inde­ pendent investigation in the library. Page fifty-two n THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL Six terms of German are offered in the regular normal cour^, although more advanced work will be given if there are a suffi­ cient number of requests for it. . , , , . u First year. Elements of grammar, Lehrbuch der Deutschen Sprache, Spahnhoofd. 1. Conversational exercises. 2. Composition. i • iir ■ u 3. Memory work, simple poems, as Die Lorelei, Was ich Liebe, Der Gute Kamarad. 4. Reading, Im Vaterland, seventy-five pages. Second year. 1. Grammar. 2. Composition based on texts read. 3. Conversational exercises on .texts. 4. Translation. Complete Im Vaterland, Immensee, Wil­ helm Tell, Die Jungfrau von Orleans. FRENCH Mr. Barnes The first year is devoted to the acquirement of a correct pro­ nunciation, a working vocabulary, and such an acquaintance with elementary grammatical principles as will render the student able to read simple narrative prose. Chardenal’s Complete Course is used, supplemented by Fraser and Squair’s grammar, and by the reading of a few easy stories. In the second year the study of more technical constructions and idioms is required together with the memorizing of verse. Constant practice in cornposition is afforded, and there is opportunity for conversation. The pre­ cise material used is at the discretion of the instructor ^ 1 he reading of the first year is selected from Halevy s L Abbe Constantin,” Malot’s “Sans Famille,” Erckmann Chatrians “Madame Therese,” Sand’s “La Mare au Diable,”_and stones of this type. That of the second year from the following: Daudet s “La Belle Nivernaise,” Merimee’s “Colomba,” Hugo’s Les Miserables” (selections), Zola’s “La Debacle,” etc. Page fifty-three THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL GEOGRAPHY Mr. StanclifFe A thorough review in geography is given in the junior year. 1 he course covers one term, five class hours a week. ; In the last few years geography has assumed new importance m the school curriculum. It has come to be recognized as the unity of all the sciences. The earth is studied as the mother of the human race and the shaper of all ifs activities. The question ever before the teacher is how does this lesson or this particular fact bear upon the life of man. The work consists of the study of earth facts in the lights of their influence on human history. physical geography I Physical geography has long been recognized as the best intro­ ductory subject to the study of the natural sciences. The work m this course is very much like what has often been taught in the grades under the title of phenomenology. The course is primarily a thought course. The aim is not so much to impart information as to lead students to inquire into and think about the physical facts and phenomena with which they come in daily contact. The course is confined largely to the study of earth forms and conditions. But it must be borne in mind that only those forms and agencies which influence animal or plant life have any place in this study. The work consists of classroom discussion, preparation of assigned subjects, and field work. The region around Edmboro is rich in glacial markings, and furnishes much inter­ esting matter for field work. DEPARTMENT OF ART Miss Powell The time is near at hand when a knowledge of drawing will be required of every public school teacher. It is a valuable aid m nearly every department of school work. Page fifty-four THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL L The supervisors* course in drawing is one especially adapted to school work. It requires two years for its completion. Stu­ dents who have studied drawing before entering the normal school will be allowed credit for the work they have done. The regular work for the first year is freehand and perspec­ tive drawing, exercises in ink and brush work, water color paint­ ing, theory of design, constructive drawing, theory of color, blackboard drawing, history of art, methods of drawing, psy­ chology of the content, gratnnaar and technique of drawing. In the second year, constructive drawing, clay modeling, water color painting, geometrical drawing, raffia work, basketry, sewing, theory of desigu, time sketches in pencil and charcoal, psychology of form, its place in education, graded illustrative work, details of supervision, and training in model school, are parts of the work. ADVANCED WORK IN ART Advanced students can take private lessons in oil, water color and china painting, pastel and crayon work. DOMESTIC SCIENCE AND MANUAL TRAINING Miss Powell, Mr. Frost, Mrs. Baker The persistent demand for vocational education has been met in the new course by domestic science, manual training and agri­ culture. Domestic science or manual training is required one term each in the freshman and senior years. The educational value of these manual arts is two-fold: first, it brings pupils into contact with the nature and sources of the materials of industrial life; and, second, it introduces motive into school work. Both of these values are distinctly social. The evolution of society has removed the industrial processes from the home to the factory. This has not only taken from children a very large source of information, but has also wholly freed them of social responsibility; as they no longer see or help in providing and preparing the food, clothing and shelter for the Page fifty-five Manual Training Products r“ --------- ^ THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL _______ L family. The manual arts, if properly taught, should supply these deficiencies. In manual training each student is taught the use of tools, the nature of various woods, and is required to make some article of distinctly commercial value. Class in Cooking —Mears COOKING A large cooking laboratory has been fitted up during the present year. Specially designed work tables and full equip­ ment has been installed. Electric stoves are in place on each table. A large electric range is also used for the baking and the heavier work. A complete course in cooking is outlined under Special Courses in this catalog.

SACKETT Commercial Law MABEL MONROE Bookkeeping and Rapid Calculation Page fifty-eight THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL 1 GENERAL PURPOSE Commercial Department in a state normal school has two distinct advantages. It has at its command a dormitory A system; it places a course that is too often barren in cultural studies in full contact with a school atmosphere that is largely colored by interest in a curriculum of general culture. In addi­ tion the student feels himself identified with a large and selfcontrolled student body; he is an important factor in an institu­ tion of long standing and considerable reputation. In re-establishing the commercial department at Edinboro, the authorities have delayed until they are in a position to offer courses of the same grade of scholarship as is required in the regular normal course. The courses in grammar, arithmetic and like subjects are taught by the heads of the various departments in the normal school. The technical subjects such as bookkeep­ ing, stenography, and typewriting, are under the direction of instructors of long experience and wide reputation in the best of business colleges. The department is re-established in response to a constant request from young men and women who desire, in particular, a good school for business training, that can furnish dormitory facilities. Three courses have been arranged. One course, extending through two full school years, leads to a diploma. Two courses, one in shorthand and one in bookkeeping, are of one year’s dura­ tion. A certificate is issued by the school upon the completion of the work of either year. SHORTHAND DEPARTMENT The aim of this department is to train young men and women for general office work or reporting of any nature. At first a thorough knowledge of the theory of shorthand is developed, which serves as a foundation for success in this particular study. In the transition from the theory of shorthand to actual prac­ tice, the first step is to train the student to apply the advanced Page fifty-nine THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL principles promptly and unhesitatingly to new and unfamiliar words. This is accomplished through the dictation classes, where practical work is done. The work throughout the course is supplemented by the neces­ sary drills for speed and accuracy in both shorthand and type­ writing. The whole course is very practical, including the actual office practice course, which enables the student to become familiar with legal forms, bank drafts, checks, notes, filing; in fact, every­ thing that comes up in everyday office work. GREGG SHORTHAND Gregg Shorthand is known as the light line system and is written entirely without shading, without positions, without back­ ward strokes, without awkward angles, and without alternative or different forms for the same word. The system is founded on the principles of longhand writing, and has the same freedom of movement. There are few rules, and those practically without excep­ tion. Each sound being represented in one way only, there can be but one way of writing each word. This makes the system easy to learn, easy to write, and easy to read. After comparative tests the Gregg system has been adopted in preference to the position systems. Many who are acquainted with other systems and have mastered thq Gregg method believe that it has greater speed possibilities than any system ever devised. In learning Gregg shorthand you are certain of reaching a working speed, and of being able to read what you write. It is advocated for all kinds of reporting, such as speech, court, medi­ cal and scientific reporting, as well as ordinary correspondence. TOUCH TYPEWRITING Touch typewriting is of equal importance with shorthand, as it is the medium through which the finished work is produced. Accuracy and speed are the essential requirements, and we aim Page sixty Class in Typewriting to obtain these results through the careful training which the student receives. BOOKKEEPING DEPARTMENT In this department bookkeeping, commercial law, commercial arithmetic, banking and general office practice are taught. Be­ ginning with the simple principles that lie at the basis of busi­ ness and bookkeeping, and developing the subject by inductive reasoning and philosophical thought-processes, the student is led to a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of the science of bookkeeping. Impracticable methods are entirely eliminated, and nothing whatever is admitted for purposes of instruction, that is not found in general use among practical accountants.

Page sixty-two THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL Basketball ' Mears DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICAL TRAINING Mr. Hayes The physical training department affords an opportunity for all students to engage in recreative and developing exercise, in order that they may enjoy healthful living, build up their phy­ sique, and keep themselves in a vigorous working condition. As the reciprocal relations of body and mind are better understood, the value of properly selected physical exercise as a means of quickening sense perceptions, strengthening the will and developing the powers of attention are being more appreci­ ated. Many backward boys and girls have first been stimulated to mental activity through physical efforts. The forced attention, quick decision, and rapid responses called for in the gymnasium work and games are a great aid to the development of the mental faculties. Page sixty-three H---------- lU— THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL L The physical training consists of practical work in public school gymnastics, calisthenics, military drill, dumb-bells, Indian clubs, wands, and heavy apparatus work on the rings, horizontal bar, parallel bars, stall bars, horse, buck, and climbing poles; also mat work and games. The work is graded throughout the course, being arranged in progressive order with a special aim of making it physically and mentally educative, interesting and enjoyable. Each student is required to have a gymnasium suit; the young ladies, a black flannel suit of bloomers and blouse, and gymnasium shoes; the young men, a black jersey, gray trousers, and gymnasium shoes. Football PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE This course consists of text-book study, recitations, lectures and demonstrations. A careful study is made of the anatomical structure of the Paere sixty-four EC y. THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL 1 human body; of the physiology of the neuro-muscular system; of the physiology of metabolism, including all topics connected with nutrition and excretion, and of the blood, circulation and respiration. Special attention is given to the agents—air, diet, exercise sleep, and bathing—which affect the human organism and tend to adapt it to its environment. The well trained teacher should be familiar with these agents, and know how to influence them towards the maintenance of health and the prolongation of life. THE LIBRARY Miss Wilson The library, situated on the second floor of Normal Hall, is a large, well lighted and well ventilated room. All the shelves are open to students, allowing free access to the eight thousand volume which are catalogued according to the Dewey classification Ihe library contains also, about four thousand government publications, not catalogued. It is especially strong in periodical literature, several hundred volumes being bound and treated as reference books. These are valuable to students as the copies of Poole s Index and Readers’ Guide to Periodical Literaarticles on any subject easily accessible ihe library is well supplied with daily and weekly newspapers many of which are sent by the courtesy of the publishers forthe beneht of the students from their locality. ^The library is open on school days from 9 a. m. to 12 :oo m. and from i :iS p. m. to 5 :i5 p. m.; on Mondays from 1130 p m* to 3 :oo p. m.

Page sbcty-nlne LL THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL The Lake —Copyrighted by L. V, KuPPer Page seventy THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL GENERAL INFORMATION 3 WHAT EDINBORO MEANS Without considering the aim of the State, the Edinboro Normal School means several things for the boys and girls of the twelfth district. It means a plant has been estab­ lished for them at a cost of over $300,000 of the people’s money. It means that this plant is main­ tained in the matters of heat, light, and care, at the expense of the com­ monwealth. It means that the entire force of instructors is paid by the State. It means that the cost to the stu­ dent is only for board and personal expenses. It means that an education which would cost four hundred dollars a year elsewhere is furnished at a cost of one hundred and sixty dollars. It means, in practical result, that the State lends rnoney for the education of its young; that the loan is to be paid, not in cash, but in two years’ teaching service, and that that service, besides discharging the debt, brings tbe one who renders it a rea­ sonable wage. ADVANTAGES Edinboro offers the advantages of a school atmosphere charged with the spirit of good work, of honest thinking, and of plain dealing. This spirit is manifested in every department of school life, in the care of grounds and buildings, as well as in classes in psychology and mathematics. As a State school, everyPage seventy-one THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL thing is done to better the training of those who are to undertake the State’s most important work. TO EDINBORO Edinboro is reached by trolley from Erie, Cambridge Springs and Meadville. Cars leave Erie on the half hour, Cambridge Springs five minutes after the hour, and Meadville on the hour, stopping in front of the school campus. In Erie, baggage checks should be delivered to the Erie Transfer Company, which will transfer baggage to the depot of the Erie Traction Company without additional charge. All baggage should be checked to the Normal School. AT EDINBORO On reaching Edinboro, students should go immediately to the Principal’s office in Normal Hall to register. One-half of the term’s expenses is payable at opening of the term; the balance becomes due at the middle of the term. Books may be purchased or rented at the book room. A deposit of the price of the books is required when the books are taken. This deposit, minus rental, is returned to the student on return of the books. ROOMS Rooms in Reeder and Haven Halls should be re­ served, as there are not enough to accommodate all who apply. Reservation should be made as early as possible. Students may room and board with private families in the town with the con­ sent of the Principal. There is on file at the office a list of all householders who have accommodations for students. These Pftffe seventy-two El ""- . — THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL householders, in receiving students into their homes, become responsible to the officers of the school for the conduct of their tenants. Any disregard for the rules is at once reported. Some landlords have specially fitted rooms for those students who, because their homes are near enough to permit a week-end visit, wish to board them­ selves. While the practice is not as common as it was a few years ago, for some students it is both economical and pleasant. Those girls who wish to do their own laundry work may do so in the laundry provided by the school. CHURCH AND RELIGION As a State school, religious denominationalism is barred. There are in Edinboro four prosperous congregations which students are urged to join in public worship. The Presbyterians, the Ad­ ventists, the Baptists and the Methodists are represented. The Catholic boys and girls usually attend services at Cambridge Springs. Among the students there are various religious organi­ zations that are prosperous and effective in the students’ lives. While the normal school senses the supreme place of religion, it clearly recognizes that the mission of the school is to the intel­ lectual side of life. It believes that in training honest and con­ sistent workers it is best serving the interest of the State and the individual. The province of the church is not infringed upon. LITERARY SOCIETIES The Potter and the Philo societies are the centers of one* phase of student interest. Both societies are doing effective work, and enjoy a friendly rivalry. Pa?e seventy-three THE EOINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL LECTURE COURSE In the normal lecture course an attempt is made to bring to the students a series of public entertainments that are unusual in interest and worth. RULES The State law lays down a heavy course of study. The chief rule of the institution is the study hour. This means that while recitations are in session from 7145 a. m. to 3 :30 p. m., and from 7:00 p. m. to 10:00 p. m., all students are to devote themselves to the work of the school. In the fulfillment of this law rests the whole matter of discipline. A student who comes to do the work and applies himself to the best of his ability has little time to spend on any other matters. A CO-EDUCATIONAL SCHOOL As a school for boys and girls little is to be said, except that in every way possible is the best spirit of education fostered. The matter of boys and girls on the same campus is not looked upon as a necessary evil, but as a wholesome situation for just the type of educational work that a normal school must do. PERMITS As the school at any hour is expected to be able to locate any student who is enrolled, it becomes necessary to require that each student ask for a permit from the office before leaving town. When a student is absent from class for any cause, he must Pa^e seventyofou] THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL procure a written permit from the Principal before he can resume his school work in any class. VISITORS All visitors should so time their visits as to interfere as little as possible with the schedule of the students. While any student may be reached by telephone, all persons are requested to use this means of communication only when urgent business demands. REFUNDS The school acts with reason and justice in the matter of refunds in case a student is compelled to leave school on account of sickness or other necessity. HIGH SCHOOL CREDITS The matter of high school credits may be settltd by consulting the conditions of admission under courses of study in this catalogue. DIPLOMAS Candidates for graduation are examined by the state board of examiners in the branches of the junior and senior years. A diploma, in which are named the branches of the course, is given those found qualified. A diploma permits the holder to teach in the public schools of Pennsylvania without further examination, for two years. Any graduate of this school who has continued his studies for two years, and has taught two full annual terms in the common Page seventy-five THE EDINBORO STATE NORMAL SCHOOL schools of the state, is entitled to a second diploma. These second diplomas are permanent certificates of the highest grade. The holder is permitted to teach in the public schools of Penn­ sylvania without further examination. To secure a second diploma the applicant must present to the faculty and to the state board of examiners a certificate testi­ fying to his good moral character and skill in the art of teaching, signed by the board or boards of directors by whom he was em­ ployed, and countersigned by the superintendent of the county in which he has taught. Blank applications may be obtained at the office of the principal.
