THE EDIXBORO QUARTERLY

LOCATION
Edinboro is a prosperous country village in the heart of the
rich agricultural district of Northwestern Pennsylvania.
As
such it is an ideal home for the teachers’ training school that
proposes to equip men and women for the school work of 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 oar line with, hourly service. .Lt
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
seclusion, that is thoroughly consistant with good student work.
THE VILLAGE
The village is progressive. Its influences are for good. It
has an old and well established citizenship. It was founded in
1796 by sturdy New England stock whose mark is readily traced
in the community to-day. The village bears the inevit-able stamp
of the school town; it has been known as a place of leamii:g
for many years.
THE LAKE
Lake Edinboro lies just north of the village. Exactly what
part it has played in the last fifty years in the spirit and tradi­
tion 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
The early establishment of an academy in 1857 was a man­
ifestation oHhe pioneer spirit that characterized all early Amer­
ican life. .Somebody has said that our pioneers always built
a church at one end of their town and a school at the other.
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.

PURPOSE
The primary purpose of the school is the training of teach­
ers. In a more particular sense it plans to equip teachers for
the Twelfth Normal School District, which embraces the coun­
ties of Lawrence, Mercer, Venango, Crawford, and Erie. There

HAVEN HALL

is in the right sort of normal school not only the specific and
technical training, but also a training along broad and cultural
lines that 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 literature but in life. The fact that the
mass of the older alumni of the school are engaged in all the
Page twelve

THK Em:NBORO QUARTERLY

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 Kdinboro 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.
'i

THE FACULTY
For the accomplishment of this chief aim of the school, the
Board of Trustees maintains a faculty consisting of experienced
teachers that are not only leaders in their various departments,
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
After a visitor has seen the recitation rooms, the library,
and the dormitories, after he has interviev/ed the faculty and
the trustees, he wall not be said tO' know the school unless he
see the students themselves. In inviting the young men and
the young women of the Twelfth Normal School District 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.
“STUDENT INTERESTS”
“Student interests” is a name that has arisen in the last
generation 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,
Page thirteen

THE EDI^IBOliO QUA.RTEREY

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 liter­
ary societies, the Young Women’s Christian Association, and
the Young Men’s Christian Association. All of these organiza­
tions are v/ell supported and add much to the school life.
DISCIPLINE
The institution is maintained for the students. Only such
regulations 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.

OUTDOOR GYMNASTICS

LIVING
It 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 enPage fourteen

deavor to maintain during study hours the best possible cxmditions for study; outside of study hours, they endeavor just as
earnestly to maintain an atmosphere of happy contentment, in
surroundings that are inspiring and uplifting.
GROUNDS AND BUILDINGS
The campus of the school embraces twenty-eight acres of
pleasantly situated land. On it may be found specimens of
practically all the native trees—many of which represent over
a half century of growth. Their care is the particular pride of
certain officers of the school; their beauty constitutes no small
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 productive model farm.
The buildings are nine in number, besides the thoroughly
modern heating plant and electric power house. In order of
their age they are:

COMMERCIAL HALL

Commercial Hall is the original academy building. It was
erected in 1857. It stands at the north side of the campus. It
IS a substantial frame building which bouses the two literary
societies.
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
supplies. 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 is the 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

CAMPUS SCENE
Page sixteen

THE EDIXBORO QUARTERLY

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 af­
fords 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 huilding of the group.
The seating capacity of the chapel is over one thousand.
RECITATION HALL

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 im.possible
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 1915 session of the Legislature made an appropriation
for an addition to Haven Hall.
The new wing, when comPage seventeen

THE EDIXBORO QUARTERLY

CAMPUS BIBCHES

pleted, will be sixty-five by one hundred and twenty-five feet,
three stories high, and will contain a large, well lighted dining
room to seat five hundred, and a modern kitchen on first floor,
and students' suites on second and third floors. The appropri­
ation was not sufficient to complete the wing according to plan,
but it is hoped that the next session will make an additional
appropriation.
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 consists of three
stories given over to dormitory purposes for the boys; a large
and well lighted basement makes a practical home for the man­
ual 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.

COURSES OF STUDY FOR THE EDINBORO
STATE NORMAL SCHOOL
Note—This course is based on the “unit” plan as proposed
■by the Carnegie Foundation.
A “unit” represents a year’s study in any subject in a sec­
ondary school constituting approximately a quarter of a full
year’s work.
This statement is designed to afford a standard of meas­
urement for the work done in a secondary school. It takes the
four-year high school course as a basis, and assumes that the
length of the school year is from thirty-six to forty weeks, that
a period is from forty to sixty minutes in length, and that
the study is pursued for four or five periods a week; but under
ordinary circumstances a satisfactory year’s work in any sub­
ject cannot be accomplished in less than one hundred and twenty
sixty minute hours, or their equivalent. Schools organized on a
different basis can nevertheless estimate their work in terms of
this unit.
Students admitted to the first year shall have a fair knowl­
edge of arithmetic, reading, orthography, penmanship. United
States history, geography, grammar, physiology, civics, and
the elements of algebra to quadratics.

REVIEW COURSES, PROVISIOiNAL AiND
PROiFESSIONAL CERTIFTCATES
The state law in regard to one-year provisional certificates,
and three-year professional certificates, is given below. The
Edinboro Normal School offers courses in the branches named.
Each year many teachers come for preparation in the subjects
indicated in the law as given here:
PROVISIONAL CERTIFICATE

Section 1302. Any county or district superintendent in
this Commonwealth may issue provisional certificates to per­
sons who pass satisfactory examinations in spelling, reading,
writing, physiology and hygiene, geography, English grammar,
arithmetic, elemetary algebra, history of the United States and
of Pennsylvania, civil government, including state and local
government, school management and methods of teaching,
valid for one year in the districts or district under the super­
vision of the superintendent issuing them. Every provisional
certificate shall indicate by suitable marks the degree of pro­
ficiency of the holder in each branch.
No person, entering
upon the work of teaching in the public schools after the ap­
proval of this act, shall teach more than five terms on provisional
certificates.
No superintendent shall make valid by endorse­
ment a provisional certificate issued by another superintendent.
PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE

Section 1304. Teachers in the public schools who' have
taught successfully under the supervision of any county or dis­
trict superintendent in this Commonwealth for not less than
two full school terms, and who have in the examinations of
such county or district superintendent for a professional certifi­
cate passed a thorough examination in the branches of study
required for a provisional certificate, as well as in any two of
the following subjects; namely, vocal music, drawing, English
literature, plane geometry, general history, physical geography,
elementary botany, elementary zoology, or elementary physics, and
shall satisfy said superintendent, by written or oral tests, that
they have carefully and intelligently read two of the books on

pedagogy approved for such purposes by the superintendent of
public instruction, shall receive professional certificates, which
certificates shall be valid for three years in the schools under
the supervision of the county or district superintendent by whom
they were issued.

THE TKlAININiG SCHOOL
It is the aim of the Training Department to give prospec­
tive teachers practice in teaching under the best methods. In­
dividual work and originality on the part of the practice teach­
ers 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 ordinary model school. Each teacher is sup­
posed to take full charge 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 dis­
cipline of the pupils is made as easy as possible. Every chance
for freedom is given 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

CLASS IN BASKETRY-MODEL SCHOOL

Pa?e thirty-six

THE KDIIVBORO QUARTERLY

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. Man­
ual 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 nec­
essary with primary grades.
Special attention will be given
to the primary course of study, the different methods of teach­
ing primary reading, arithmetic, spelling, etc. Observation and
practice in the training school will be a part of the course.
PSYCHOLOGY
The fundamental mental structures are taken up in this
course; including among others: sensation, perception, emo­
tion, the will, habits, 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 referred to in the library.
SEiNIOR METHODS
This class is carried on in connection with the practice teach­
ing. Its aim is to furnish a basis for practical work in the class
room rather than a theoretical discussion of education.
In
order to enable seniors to specialize in the particular kind of
work they are preparing for, the class is divided into three
groups. Primary, Advanced, and Rural. Those who elect to ob­
serve and practice in the first four grades, will enter the pri­
mary group; those in the four upper grades, the advanced
group; and those who elect to observe and practice in the Rural
Practice School, the rural group.
HISTORY OF EDUCATION
An epitome of the educational world from the dawn of his­

tory to the present time is taken in this course. This is fol­
lowed by a more careful study of the great educators of each
great epoch of the world’s history.
Such persons as Plato,
Jesus, Quintilian, Dante, Luther, Bacon, Comenius, 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
in presenting reports of different subjects which the class

MADE BY EIGHTH GRADE GIRLS
Page thirty-eight

L

THE EDI>fBORO QUARTERLY

chooses. Everyone in the class is supposed to read something
in the library for each report.
Two members make special
preparation for each report, reading the material that the library
affords upon this special topic. Discussions and criticisms fol­
low the report.
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 first two 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 his­
tory in the grades.
No text is used, but the work is based
largely on McMurry’s “How to Study and Teaching How to
Study.”
METHODS IN GEOGRAPHY
The work in 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.
PRIMARY METHODS
This course will deal with subjects, methods and problems
1 elated to instruction in the primary school. Critical examin­
ation will be given to the standards that are commonly em­
ployed in judging the quality of instruction. Observation and
practice in the training school will be a vital part of the course.
PRINCIPLES OF EDUCATION
This course is required of all who enter the junior year
from first grade high schools who have not had the profession­
al work required in the freshman and sophomore years. It is
intended as a foundation for the later professional work of the
course. The work is based on McMurray’s “How to Study,”
and Dewey’s “How We Think.”

SCHOOL HYGIENE
There has been a deplorable ignorance on the part of teach­
ers and school officers of the proper conditions of health and
sanitation in the public schools.
A better knowledge on the
part of teachers of the principles of school hygiene and sanita­
tion will be one step in the bringing about of better conditions.
The work of this course will be based on Dresslar’s “School Hy­
giene.”
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
preparation of efficient teachers of arithmetic in both priniary
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 les­
son sketches. Emphasis is placed on the actual teaching work
and criticisms thereof.
METHODS IN READING
This course deals with problems in the teaching of reading
from the physiological, psychological, and pedagogical sides. It
analyses and compares present-day texts and methods, with the
view to giving the students a basis for intelligent selection of
these.
Phonics, story-telling, parallel readings, and class dis­
cussions enrich the course.
RURAL S.OHOOL METHODS
This course is primarily for those Seniors who elect to pre­
pare to teach in one-room country schools.
Those who have
made a study of the country school problem have come to feel
that its solution lies largely in the definite preparation of teach­
ers for service in the country schools. Enlightened and pro­
gressive County Superintendents are beginning to demand
teachers who have a sympathy for, and insight into, the problems
of country life. The course is intended to meet this demand.

Next year the theoretical work of the classroom will be
emphasized and vitalized by observation and practice in a model
rural school.

ETHICS
Miss Clark
The topics treated in this course will be: Origin and develop­
ment of our present ethical standards of living; the relations of
moral and civil law and the purpose and method of instruction
in morals in the Elementary Schools.

FRENCH
Mr. Anderson
The course in French covers two years. The first year is de­
voted to the acquirement of a correct pronunciation, a working
vocabulary, and such an acquaintance with elementary gram­
matical principles as will enable the student to read simple nar­
rative prose. The first thirty-nine lessons of Fraser and Squair’s
“French Grammar” are covered during the year, together with
the mastery of the regular conjugations and the most common
of the irregular verbs. This work is supplemented by the read­
ing of Snow and Lebon’s “Easy French.”
In the second year the study of more technical constructions
and idioms is required together with the complete mastery of
all irregular verbs and the memorizing of verse. The reading
of the second year is at the discretion of the instructor and is
selected from such works as Halevy’s “L’Abbe Constantin,”
Daudet’s short stories, Memimee’s “Colomba,” Hugo’s “Les Miserables,” etc.
Constant practice in French composition is af­
forded throughout both years.

DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS
Mr. Siddell, Mr. Sackett, Mr. Stancliflf, Mrs. Kirk

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.
Accordingly the aim here is to develop strength of work in both
mental and written arithmetic, in algebra, and in geometry. If
Page forty-two

THE EDINBORO QUARTERLY

=1J

a strong foundation is laid in these branches, the advanced
courses 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
indications 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 through­
out two terms. The aim, is to develop accuracy, facility and
rapidity of work, both oral and written. Clearness and concise­
ness 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 estab­
lish the “how” in the mind of the student.
The work in written arithmetic, in which considerable oral
work is 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 soug^ht. 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
different 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 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 es­
pecially emphasized.
Students before entering should have
completed a full year’s work in algebra as far as quadratics,
so that the usual amount required for college entrance can be
completed in one year. For the benefit of those who have not
had this amount of preparatory work classes for beginners are
provided.
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 author­
Self-reliance and power
ity for statements are insisted upon.
of initiative are developed by original exercises. Believing that
the power 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,
however, a large number of exercises involving a few principles
each, rather than a much smaller number of very difficult prob­
lems, 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
teaching the subject a happy medium is sought between non­
use of mathematical solids and excessive use of the same, thus
stimulating but not demoralizing the student’s power to form
Locus problems are emphasized in both
geometric concepts.
plane and solid geometry.
TRIGOiNOMETRY
One-half year is devoted to the study of trigonometry. The
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 solutions of right and oblique
triangles with practical applications.

ADVANCED ALGEBiRA
This course is designed for three classes of students, (i)
those college preparatory students who desire to offer for col­
lege entrance the maximum amount required by any college or
technical 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 through­
out the year, the work of the first semester being comparable
to what is sometinnes 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 on or
before studying quadratics. In the first semester the work will
include a review of quadratics, ratio and proportion, theory of
exponents, evolution, theory of quadratics, graphical interpreta­
tion of quadratics, binomial theorem! for fractional and negative
exponents, arithmetic and geometric progressions.
The work of the second semester will include undetermined
coefficients, premutations and combinations, determinants of
the second, third, and fourth orders, general theory of equa­
tions, and the solution of higher numerical equations.

DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH
Mr. LaBounty, Miss Sullivan, Mr. Anderson

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.
FRESHMAIN COiURSE
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 term. 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 O'f rules and
phonetics. It is the purpose of the instructor to develop con­
science and pride in the matter that is often slighted.

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' in­
crease knowledge of simple verse forms and to develop skill
in the arrangement of sentence elements. For apportion of the
year, diary writing is followed with interest; this assures con­
stant 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
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 occuoies five
hours weekly in the spring term.
The text is Halleck’s
“American Eiterature.”
Page forty-seven

THE EDINBORO QUARTERLY

SENIOR COURSE
A. A rapid review of grammar, with special emphasis on ‘
sentence structure, is required of all seniors.
Each student
compiles a catalog of faulty expressions which arouses consid­
erable 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
grammar. The history of the subject is considered. A gen­
eral acquaintance 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,
the sonnet, the lyric, the epic, and the drama, are considered.
At least one great example of each is studied in detail.
B. One term of advanced English is devoted to daily par­
agraph writing.
Subject of great diversity are assigned,
always with a view to provoking original thought and allowing
variety of treatment. Each paper is read and briefly com­
mented upon before the class.

PHYSICS
In the new four-year course, phyics is required during the
entire third year.
The work is covered by laboratory prac­
tice and recitation, supplemented by current articles on new in­
ventions. The new physical laboratory is fully equipped for
thirty individual 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 re­
port on twenty-five experiments, and is encouraged to perform
more for which due credit is given. A small laboratory fee of
one dollar a 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; 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.

THE EDINBORO QUARTERLY

CHEMISTRY
Chemiistry is required in the fourth year of the new course,
forty weeks, five class hours a week. Three class hours are
devoted to classroom work and two to laboratory exercises.
The class work consists of discussion of prepared lessons, de­
monstration by the instructor, and solution of simple chemical
problems. Each student is required to perform in the labo­
ratory at least thirty-five experiments chosen from the list ac­
cepted by the college entrance board.
BIOLOGY
Biology is required in the second year of the new course,
forty weeks, four hours a week. Hunter’s “Essentials of
Biology” with Sharpe’s “Laboratory Manual” forms the basis of
the work. Collections of insects and of botanical specimens are
made. Reports are required upon vital topics. Students util-

ize the latest government bulletins and reports in the work as
well as current science literature.
AGRICULTURE AND NATURE STUDY
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 Agriculture” is used as a basis for the text requirements.
A suitable text in nature study will be used in addition.
SCHOOL GARDEN COURSE
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 method 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 labo­
ratory work will cover the use and care of tools; ways of de­
termining 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 spading, planting, and caring for a plot of suitable
size for children.
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.
ASTRONOMY
Astronomv 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.

Miss Schueler

The courses in German aim to give the student an interest
in a life and a language differing from his own. The language
of the classroom is German throughout.
Nine terms of German are offered in the regular normal
course, although more advanced work can be given if there is a
sufficient number of requests for it.
FIRST YEAR
Elements of grammar, “Elementary German Grammar,” Wesselhoeft; conversational exercises based on “German Life” by

HISTORY
Mr. Sackett

History explains the past, interprets the present, and pre­
dicts the future. It is both an informing source and an educa­
tional me^ns. In our history courses such a selection and
presentation of historical facts is attempted as seems most likely
to aid the student to benefit by the latent possibilities of the
subject. The courses are:
1. Ancient History and Mediaeval and Modern History are
given in alternate years. Mediaeval and Modern History will
be given in 1916-17, as much as is offered in Harding or West.
2. English. As much as is offered in Cheyney or Andrews,
etc.
3. United States. As much as is offered in McLaughlin,
Hart, etc.
Pennsylvania. In the spring term a brief course in the
history of Pennsylvania is given if there is sufficient demand
for it.

CIVICS
Mr. Sackett

The aim of the course in civics is to give the students a
practical working knowledge of American political institutions.
A text is used as the basis of the work, and this is supple­
mented by 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.

GEOGRAPHY
Mr. Stancliff

A thorough review in geography is given in the Junior year.
The course covers one term, five hours a week.
In the last few years geography has assumed new import­
ance in 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 its activities.
The question ever before the teacher is how does this lesson
Page fifty-three

THE EDIXBORO QUARTERLYJ

or this particular fact bear upon the life of man. The work
consists of the study of earth facts in the light of their influ­
ence on human history.

PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY
Mrs. Kirk

Physical geography has long been recognized as the best
introductory subject to the study of the natural sciences. The
work in 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
papers on assigned subjects, and field work. The region around
Edinboro is rich in glacial markings, and furnishes much inter­
esting matter for field work.

PHYSICAL TRAINING
Mr. Graham

The physical training department affords an opportunity
for all students to engage in recreative and developing exer­
cise, in order that they may enjoy healthful living, build up
their physique, and keep themselves in a vigorous working con­
dition.
As the reciprocal relations of body and mind are better un­
derstood, 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 atten­
tion, quick decision, and rapid respK>nses called for in the gym­
nasium work and games are a great aid to the development of
the mental faculties.
Page fifty-four

THE EDIMHOltO QUARTERLY

BOYS’ CLASS-OUT DOOR GYMNASTICS

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 pole; 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.
PHlYSrOLOGY AND HYGIENE
This course consists of text-book study, recitations, lec­
tures and demonstrations.
A careful study is made of the anatomical structure of the
human body; of the physiology of the neuro-muscular system;
of the physiology of metabolism, including all topics connected
Page fifty-five

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 main­
tenance of health and the prolongation of life.

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 agriculture. Domestic science or manual training is re­
quired 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 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.
A large cooking iaboratory has been fitted uo 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.

Freshman year, for the the study of fundamentals of music,
sight-singing and chorus work. This class is organized each
term.
Henry F. Miller pianos are used in the Edinboro State Normal School.

ART AND DRAWING
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 in nearly every department of school work.
The supervisors’ course in drawing is one especially adapted
to school work. It requires two years for 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, psychol­
ogy of the content, grammar and technique of drawing.
In the second year, constructive drawing, clay modeling,
water color painting, geometrical drawing, raffia work, basketry,
sewing, theory of design, 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.

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
volumes, which are catalogued according to the Dewey classifi­
cation. The library contains also, about four thousand govern­
ment 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;
the copies of “Poole’s Index” and “Reader’s Guide to Period­
ical Literature” make magazine articles on any subject easily
accessible.
The library is well supplied with daily and weekly news­
papers, many of which are sent by the courtesy of the publishers
for the benefit of the students from their locality.
The library is open on school days from 9:00 a. m. to 12:00
m., and from i ;i5 to 5 :i5 p. m.; on Saturdays from 9:00 a. m.
to 12 :oo m.

GENERAL INFORMATION
WHAT ED'INiBORO' MEANS
Without considering the aim of
the State, the Edinboro Normal
School mea.ns several things for the
boys and girls of the twelfth dis­
trict.
It means that a plant has been
established 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 education which would cost four hundred
dollars a year elsewhere is furnished at a cost of one hundred
and seventy-five dollars.
It means, in practical result, that the State lends money for
the education of its young; that the loan is to be paid, not
in cash, but in two year’s teaching service, and that that service,
besides discharging the debt, brings the one who renders it a
reasonable wage.
ADVANTAGES
Edinboro offers the ad­
vantages of a school at­
mosphere charged with the
spirit of good work, of
honest thinking, and of
plain dealing. This spirit
is manifested in every de­
partment of school life, in
the care of grounds and
Page seveny-two

THE EDINBORO QUARTERLY

buildings, as well as in classes in
psychology and mathematics. As a
State school, everything is done to
better the training of those who are
to undertake the State’s most im­
portant v,?ork.

TO ED'INBO'RO

pany.

Edinboro is reached by trolley from
Erie, Cambridge Springs and Meadville. Cars leave Erie on the half
hour, Cambridge Springs and i'feadville on the hour, stopping in front
of the school campus.
Tn Erie,
baggage checks should be delivered
to the Erie Transfer Company,
which will transfer baggage to the
depot of the Erie Traction Com­
All baggage should be checked to the Normal School.

AT EDriNiBORO
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 bal­
ance 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 stu­
dent on the return of the books.
ROOMS
Rooms in Reeder and Haven
Halls should be reserved, 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
Page seventy-three

i

THK EDI^^BORO QXJA.RTERLY

families in the town with
the consent of the Principal.
In case the dormitories
cannot accommodate all who
apply for rooms, permission
will be given to room with
private families and board
in the school dining hall.
There is on file at the
office a list of all household­
ers who have accommoda­
tions for students. These
householders, in receiving
students into their homes, become responsible to tne 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 themselves.
While the practice is not as common as it was a few years ago,
for some students it is both economical arid pleasant.
Those girls who wish to do their own laundry work may do
so in the laundry provided by the school.
CHUfRCH 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 Adventists,
the Baptists and the Methodists are
represented. The Catholic boys and
girls usually attend the services at
Cambridge Springs. Among the
students there are various religious
organizations 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
Page seventy-four

THE EDIiVBORO QUARTERLY

[

of the school is to the intel­
lectual side of life. It be­
lieves that in training honest
and consistent workers it is
best serving the interest of
the State and the individual.
The province of the church
is not infringed upon.
LIl'ERARY SOCIETIES
The Potter and the Philo
societies are the centers of one phase of student interest. Both
societies are doing etfective work, and enjoy a friendly rivalry.
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 io;oo 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, ex­
cept that in every way pos­
sible is the best spirit of edu­
cation fostered. The matter
of boys and girls on the
same campus is not looked
Page seventy-five

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 ex­
pected to be able to locate any stu­
dent who is enrolled, it becomes nec­
essary to require that each student
ask a permit from the office before
leaving town,
When a student is absent from
class for any cause, he must 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 cred­
its may be settled by consulting the
conditions of admission under
courses of study in this catalogue.
DIPLOMAS
Candidates for graduation are
Page seventy-six

THE I^DIXBORO QUARTERLY

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
Penn.sylvania without furth­
er 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 com­
mon 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 P'ennsylvania without further examination.
To secure a second diploma the applicant must present to
the factulty and to the state board of examiners a certificate
testifying to his good moral character and skill in the art of
teaching, signed by the board or boards of directors by whom
he was employed, and countersigned by the superintendent of
the county in which he taught. Blank applications may be ob­
tained at the office of the principal.
