"Wliile colleges and academies look to the general culture of their pupils, ours has a specific aim, viz: the highest professional training, in order that it may be made effective in the education of others. Incidentally? however, it furnishes; the very best opportunities for laying the foundation for a liberal education, and the ultimate introduce tion to the other learned professions. The thoroughness with which all the English, as well as the elementary, branches of both ,a scientific?'.and classical education are pursued is , the very training which all professional men need. Hence, the Normal .School law very wisely provides for three distinct courses, viz: the Elementary, Scientific, and the Clas­ sical, with the Model'•School preparatory to each. This School comprises Primary„Grammar and High School Departments, having its appropriate grades and classes, through which its graduates are fitted for full standing in the Normal Department. Lessons in Morals, Manners, Language, Numbers, and a systematic training of the perceptive faculties in a broad and wisely adapted series of object and oral lessons, will each and all recei.ve attention. Music, Drawing, Calisthenics, and other features of right Primary Instruction, will be in daily use, under the control of accomplished instructors. S T A T E , N O R M A L SCHOOL. m COURSE OF STUDY.

C LA SSIC A L COURSE. This course is; designed to prepare Teachers for Classical High Schools, and studeuts for entering the Freshman Class in any o f our. best Colleges. ELEMENTARY COURSE.

Students prepafingiffior College or business, besides their spe­ cial studies, can take up any in the regular course. PLAN OP INSTRUCTION. , Our aim is to be thorough and systematic, requiring the student not only to understand the principle upon which each rule is founded, but to explain it so as to make it easily under­ stood by others. In order to do this, wb have been careful in the selection o f teachers, requiring not only that they be thor­ ough scholars, but o f large experience, and' eminent in their 18 THE CUM BERLAND VALLEY. department. Thus, with teachers «lirong and enthusiastic jfn the -several departments, we can always hope to awaken that interest on the part o f our-pupils, without which satisfactory results are n£»t likely to be accomplished. PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTION Is, of course, the crowning work of the Normal School. Our object is-not fOnly the education of our pupils, but through them, that of others and the general elevation of the standard o f education throughout our Commonwealth. To this end we bring bgfore Our pupils the very best resiilts^of our wisest and best educators, that out of these results, and from a broad and comprehensive view of the various plans by which ‘Others claim to have attained success, they may see wherein they may reach thé object of their ambition. Eminence in any prOféssiot®l| not the result o f servile imitation, but of independent thought a.nd investigation. Men to be men must be themselves^pfesërve their individuality, and act according to the nature which God has given them, perfecting that nature, however, by education and discipline.. W e hold, therefore, that thSlend of the professional training reqnirëcipis not. the introduction of any particular system, rig­ idly and mechanica'lly carried out, but such à -Comprehensive knowledge of all systems as will enable each student, when he enters upon his. life work, to adopt such plans and arrange­ ments as. will make'him. what he ought to be in his profession. GENERAL MANAGEMENT. Eight conduct will be ’insisted,on, and enforced by preceptyfvnd by penalty, i f ; necessary to good order. The rules of the school- will be, few and simple. The, true basis ot rightful authority is an enlightened sense of duty and right, and that school or State is governed best that seems to-govern Jeast Self-control and self-help in every variety ot' school w ork sbal be a governing ideal with instructors in the general manage­ ment of students. sta ■ .19 PHYSICAL CULTURE. Students have special need .of regular, methodical, physical exercise, The pi'ecept, “ a sound mind in a sound body,” has been too generally ignored. W e propose that •every student not. specially excused will practice calisthenics or gymnastics daily, and observe all known hygienic laws in diet, dress, exer­ cise, :ventilat;i|}|. of rooms^-etc. Instruction, r||fersonajJadvide and careful superintendence'will be given, in the belief that good health is a prime requisite to mental and moral, education. SOCIAL CULTURE. The divine model of the school is the p.erfce!:.,iamiiy, wherp youth of both sexes, under the. restraints of parents,estrengthen and refine each other mutually hv their complementary quali­ ties. In recitations, general exercises in Chapel, and occasional gatherings in parlors, in presence of instructors,, ladies, and gentlemen will meet and find opportunities for social cultitre. MORAL AND RELIGIOUS CULTURE. That education is faulty and imperfect that neglects the moral and religions, natures. Whilst in no sense or degree sectarian, a State Normal School in and for a. Christian State and a Christian people should be Christian in the broadest and best finse.p|; that term. Whilst we shall hold sacred the in­ dividual, opinions of students, and encourage all to attend the church : of their preference, and require-, each to attend some church,, we shall endeavor to instruct, all students in the gi^at fundamental, and practical truths of the Bible. W e believe that the Bible is the. best text-hook of morals. It will5, therefore, be read daily in opening exercises of schools, with prayer andpsacred songs. There will, also, be a SabbathSchool in the Chapel on every Sunday morning at, 9 o’clock, and either preaching-or. prayer meeting on Sabbath evening, upon which all the students are required to attend. There is, also, a prayer meeting on Wednesday evening, which is largely 20 THE CUM BERLAND VALLEY attended by both professors and students, and in which both participate. TEXT-BOOKS. Text-books, can be had at the lowest selling prices at the. , Book Rkoni in the building. So far as we can, we usé those in common use.ñ$n. the. Séhoolspof this State, but for the sake o f uniformity, a few books will ordinarily have to be purchased. MUSEUM AMD PHILOSOPHICAL APPARATUS. The Museum has many.valuable specimens, illustrating Min­ eralogy, Geology and Natural History. Also, many excellent additions" have recently been made to the stock of Philosophi­ cal Apparatus. WICKERSHAM LITERARY SOCIETY. The students and Faculty meet on Friday evening of each week for literary .exercises.. Great interest is manifested by citizens and students in the exercises o f this Society. LIBRARY AMD READING ROOM. An elegant and . Commodious room, opening .out of the* Chapel, is fitted up for a library and-reading room. Reference books and general ffeerature are accessible to all students, free of expense, and the choieest.periodi.eals are found on the table. PREE-HAND DRAWING. The recent and ■iv id e-spread introduction of drawing into our schools, renders it necessary that teachers preparé to teach.., this important-and much neglected branch of education. Its value as a means .Of imparting instruction in ’various branches of education, is -now recognized by our most promi­ nent educators. The training of the hand and o f the eye,-which is given by S T A T E N O R M A L . SCHOOL. . ,21 drawing, §|s found to hekbf -tlije greatest advantage-to the worker in nearly every branch of industry. The element o f beauty.lias'a pecuniary as wTell as sesthetip value.. Believing, therefore, that drawing and design, as applied to teaching and the industrial arts, are important branches of edu­ ca tio n , we givi$ them special attention. Commencing with copying— as a means of becoming ac­ quainted with the. beautiful— the pupil advances rapidly*from simple to the most difficult exercises.. The mediums used are: pencil ^crayon, charcoal,-color, etc. The elements of perspective; supplemented by drawing from objects, enable the pupil to delineate anything he desires; fy Exercises litt; designing fo4;->speci$§ purposes, such as wallpapers, tiles, plates, carved work, etc,, enter largely into .the; practice of the advanced classes.

LOCATION AND BUILDING. ; The Borough of Shippensburg, one of the oldest inland towns in the State, is situated in the heart of the beautiful Cumberland Talley, andpis famous for its heathy and invigo­ rating atmosphere. The ¿^ommuuity .is highly moral,;;and affords little temptation to those disposed to indulge in impro­ prieties, the moral sense o f the people being a safeguard to the pupils sojourning in their midst. THE GROUNDS. During thè®past year the grounds^ hat?® been enclosed and beautified. Some threp hundred trees have been planted, and flower beds now occupy the space heretofore allotted to stone I heaps and rubbish. The improvement, in this particular, is 26 ■ THE CUM BERLAND V ALLE Y very great, and will, in a short time, make the outlook beauti­ ful and inviting, well calculated to cultivate the aesthetic taste o f the pupils attending the Institution. THE BUILDING Is an elegant brick edifice, four stories high (including Man­ sard roof story), and has two hundred and thirteen rooms, with hoarding and lodging capacity for three hundred, and sghool room for eight hundred students. It is located on a high "and beautiful site near town, is heated by steam, lighted by gas? and furnished throughout with improved furniture: / Being situated near the line of the Cumberland Valley Railroad, (the road forming the southern boundary of the grounds), through the courtesy o f the efficient Superintendent of the road, Gen. J. F. Boyd, all passenger trains will stop at the Formal Station for a day or two at the opening and at the close of each t$rm> and ordinarily at other times when heavy baggage is to be carried, thus avoiding unnecessary expense for porterage or ex­ posure in bad weather. W e aim to make the following special points in this school, viz: a harmonious adjustment of the graded school and-elective ■course o f study; great prominence to right primary instruction in both theory and practice; special care for health and physi­ cal training o f pupils; vocal culture in daily drill in Elocution and Singing for all pupils; skill in expression and execution in every variety of subject and w ork; large opportunities under S T A T M M O R M A f.
