The cliief ol)ject of all Normal Schools is to prepare
young men and women to engage in the great work of
teaching.
Since the moulding of youthful minds has
I

i
i

)ecome an honored profession, too much importance can
not he })laced u]:»on tlie necessity of thoroiujli preparation
on the part of those who engage in the profession.
It
has been said that "the destiny of the nation depends
upon the children of the public schools."
would
add that the success of public school children in forming the destiny of the nation depends upon the teacher.
The State authorities have prescribed a course of studies
which they deem best calculated to prepare teachers for
their responsible duties.
In our institution this course
of study is followed out in the most tiiorough and systematic manner.
I

We

:i

But

as

we

live in

an eminently

j^ractical

age,

and

as

who

are seelving an education do not intend to teacli,
courses of studies have been marked out which are intended to prepare students for (Ufferent pursuits in lile.
He wlio desires a college education will here find opporall

tunities for

preparing himself for admittance to any

and those who exbecome business men may be assured that the
advantages offered here are not anywhere excelled.
in
the department of ornamental branches we say, conficlass in the best colleges of the land,

pect to

dently,

tliat

no institution

in tlie State offers greater in-

ducements.

t

$

Drawing, painting, music, and the like, are taught by
the most competent teachers and on the most reasonable
terms.
In all the departments of this institution the great

objoet will

be to develop the several faculties of the

mind in such a manner as to preserve a just equipoise
among them.
The morals and manners of sludents are carefully
moulded by watchful teachers.
The object of the institution is, in short, to send ont
into the world

i

men and women who may spread abroad
who

the influence of educaticm; gentlemen and ladies
mMv be ornaments to society.

School.

This is entirely scj^arate from all other departments,
and is intended to be a model, not only in its management and in its course of elementary instruction, but also to afford an opjiortunity for those who are ])i'eparing
to become teachers to gain a necessary degree of experience, under the guidance of the Principal, to enable them at once to enter upon the duties of the
school-room, with a confidence and competence which
parents and guardians demand of those who take charge

of the training of their children.
