PBNNSYl,VANIA STATE NORMAE SCHOOL

HISTORY OF THE SCHOOL
The Edinbpro State Normal School was recognized as a Normal School
by the State authorities on the 23d day of January, 1861. It is thus the
oldest Normal School in the State except one, and from that day to this it
has been one of the strongest educational factors in the State. During its
hbstory almost 11,000 students have received their education here, and about
1,200 graduates have entered the ranks as public school teachers. With
such a clientele it has been able to do more for the great cause of public
school education in the northwestern part of our commonwealth than all
other factors combined.
This prosperous school grew out of an academy which was opened in
1855, and the first building was built by subscription in 1856. Two addi­
tional bu.ldings, now known as Science Hall and the Ladies’ Dormitory,
respectively, were erected in 1858. In i860, the Boys’ Dormitory was
erected. In addition to the buildings mentioned, there are. Music Hall,
built in 1878, Recitation Hall, built in 1880; and Normal Hall, completed
in 1890. These buildings are all large and attractive, with accommodations
for 500 students. They stand on a tract of twelve acres, on the southeast
edge of the borough, which has been planted with trees and laid out with
beautiful walks. In fact, visitors tell us that we have the most picturesque,
the most attractive and best shaded Normal School grounds in the State.
Our buildings are heated by steam, and the.dormitories are comfortable and
homelike. The village of Edinboro contains a population of about 1,000,
and is situated eighteen miles directly south of Erie and six miles north of
Cambridge Springs, with which it is connected by daily stages. An
electric railroad line is now being constructed from Erie to Cambridge
Springs, via Edinboro. The track is already laid and prospects are good
for the early completion of the line.
The town is beautifully shaded and has splendid sidewalks. The second
largest lake in the State is located on the outskirts of the city. A conven­
ient boat house, well supplied with boats, including a steam launch, affords
opportunity for a most delightful sort of recreation. The time is not far
distant when Edinboro will become a popular summer resort, for men of
wealth are already contemplating the erection of summer hotels on the
shores of our beautiful Conneauttee lake.
Edinboro is one of the healthiest school towns in the State, and is more
free from epidemics than large centers of population and railroad towns. A
complete system of sewerage has been constructed at large expense for the
school grounds and various buildings, conveying all sewage and waste into
a creek of constantly running water. In consequence of this, the water
supply for the school is exceptionally pure and wholesome, without the
usual danger of contamination,

OF THE TWELFTH DISTRICT.

II

THE FUNCTION OF THE SCHOOL.

The primary function of the Normal School is to make teachers for the
public schools of the commonwealth. Bdinboro recognizes this as the para­
mount aim and the one for which it was primarily created. Therefore, two
things are kept prominently in view throughout the entire course, namely:
the child and the teacher; the child being the subject and the teacher the
moulder of the child’s life. If the aim of the teacher is the development of
an effectual will, the teacher himself must have a comprehensive knowledge
of rhild development and of psychology. The latter in connection with its
subjective side must comprehend the science of education, and its relation
to child development must include the art of education, wHich makes method
its essential subject. From this point of view a Normal School is distinct­
ively a professional school, and as such it ranks with schools of applied
science, of law, and of theology. In another sense, it is both professional
and academic, but all academic work in a Normal School has a p'rofessional
value. That is to say, all academic work in a Normal School is approached
from the standpoint of the prospective teacher. Hence, the paramount
question in the mind of the Normal student when studying Grammar, His­
tory, or Arithmetic always is, “ How shall I teach it?” which involves of
course a knowledge of the subject. But there is a vast difference between
knowing a subject and knowing how to teach it. This view of the Normal
School has necessitated a two-fold division of the work, namely: the theo­
retical and the practical. On the theory side we have Psychology as the
central science, and associated with it Ethics, Reasoning, and History of the
race. On the practical side, we have class-room instruction by the prospec­
tive teacher as well as periods for the observation of the work done not only
by fellow-students, but by expert critic teachers. Every practice teacher of
the Model School is taught to prepare each recitation and then required to
submit it to the critic teacher before he is allowed to assume the important
position of teacher of the class. This judicious blending of theory and
practice is what makes a Normal School facile princeps, the teachers’ col­
lege. While not all Normal graduates are necessarily high grade school
teachers, they are as a class the only teachers that enter the school room
with a more or less definite aim. They are taught to have a professional
spirit, that intangible something which is so essential in every profession.
This is the chief reason why all of the important States—as Massachusetts,
Wisconsin and Michigan—are increasing the number of their Normal
Schools.

DIPLOMAS.

Candidates for graduation are examined by the State Board of Exam­
iners in the branches of the Senior year. A diploma, in which are named
the branches of the cour.se, is given those found qualified. The diploma
permits the holder to teach in the public schools of Pennsylvania for two
full years.
Any graduate of this school who has contipued his studies for two years,
and has taught two full annual terms in the Common Schools of the State,
is entitled to a second diploma.
These second diplomas are permanent certificates of the highest grade.
I'he holder is permitted to teach in the Public Schools of Pennsylvania
without further examination.
To secure a second diploma the applicant must present to the Faculty
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

ti

17

declaring his intention to teach in the Common Schools of the State, shall
receive a sum of fifty cents per week.
2. Each student who, upon graduation, shall sign an agreement to
teach in the Common Schools of the State two full annual terms, shall re­
ceive an additional sum of fifty dollars, providing the appropriation made
by the legislature is sufficient.
3. Students to secure these benefits must attend the school at least one
term of twelve consecutive weeks.
4. Each student drawing an allowance from the State must receive
regular instruction in Theory and Practice of Teaching.
5. In case of deficiency in the amount appropriated by the Legislature

EXPENSES IN NORMAL DEPARTMENT.

ft-'

Elsewhere we learn that the State usually appropriates fifty cents per
week for each student over seventeen years of age who pursues professional
studies for at least twelve consecutive weeks, and fifty dollars for each grad­
uate. These amounts are credited on tuition and other accounts, leaving
the student to pay twenty dollars less than full rates for Junior year, and
seventy dollars less than regular rates for Senior year.
Tuition per year, I50; deducting State aid, f3o. The tuition per term
is divided as follows: Fall term, 14 weeks, $17. Winter term, twelve
weeks, |i6. Spring term, fourteen weeks, |i7, with the usual deductions
of fifty cents per week. State aid, providing the appropriation is sufficient.
Tuition per week, for parts of term, $1.45.
The rooms in the dormitories are furnished with all necessary articles.
The rent is |4 to |8 for each term. Students rooming alone are charged
more.
Table board costs $2 per week. If the present high prices of food
products continue the Trustees may increase the price of board without
further notice.
The following is an estimate of the necessary expenses of a student per
year:
Tuition, State aid deducted.............................................. f 30
Board, 40 weeks..............................................................
80
Furnished rooms, including light and heat.........................
18
Books and incidentals........................................................

I146
Students who board themselves may possibly lessen the expenses; but
it is to be remembered that it is false economy for students to deny them­
selves wholesome, nutritious food, or to use time needed for study and re­
creation in preparing meals. Students cmtemplating boarding themselves
must consult the Principal before engaging rooms, and no women students

i8

PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

shall be permitted to room or board outside of the dormitories who do not
receive their general supplies and provisions from home.
No reduction will be allowed for the first week or the last two weeks of
any term of school.

ACADEMIC DEPARTMENT.
ENGLISH.

All progressive schools of the country are more and more emphasizing
the importance of a thorough study of the English Language. The ele­
mentary Normal course includes Grammar, Rhetoric and English Litera­
ture. The course in technical Grammar presupposes a thorough drill in
elementary language work, and is not begun until a certain maturity of the
intellect is attained. The methods employed are those which will secure to
the student the highest discipline and at the same time give to him that
knowledge of the structure of his language which is essential to the prose­
cution of further linguistic study. Considerable care is taken to hx clearly
in his mind the fundamental ideas and laws of language. Power of expres­
sion is cultivated in every lesson by requiring original illustrative problems
in construction. Then, at intervals in the course, finished compositions are
required. Analysis and synthesis run parallel throughout the course.
Daily exercises are given in the contraction and expansion of phrases,
clauses and sentences. Equivalent expres.sions are studied with the same
object that is kept in view in the study of synonyms.
In Rhetoric, the same thoroughness in essentials is carried out. The
inductive process is followed, by which the laws of language are evolved.
The pedagogical value of the sentence as the unit of rhetorical language is
kept constantly in mind. The laws of discourse, as manifested in the con­
tinuity of style as shown by our best speakers and writers, are constantly
kept in mind. The critical study of style is therefore made an accessory to
the study of the literary work of the respective authors.
Frequent exercises in composition are given, by which a good literary
style is cultivated.
Before graduation an approved thesis on some pedagogical subject is re­
quired from each student. Original orations in which special attention is
paid to an elevated, oratorical style must also be delivered by the Seniors
from the Chapel stage during the spring term.
The text books are supplemented by lectures on the history of English
Literature from Beowulf to Browning. The unity of the whole national life
is constantly kept before the mind of the student and he is taught that to
study literature is to study one great expression of the character and historic
development of the race.- The classics chosen for critical study are those
specified in the “College Entrance Requirements in English,” and an at-

OF THE twelfth district.

19

tempt is made to enable the student not only to appreciate and understand
the individual works selected, but also to grasp their relations to one an­
other, and the way in which they give expression to the personality of the
writer and the tendencies of the time.
Last year the Classics studied were “Macbeth,” “Paradise Lost,”
Burke’s “Speech on the Conciliation with America,” Carlyle’s “Essay on
Burns,” “The Last of the Mohicans,” “Palamon and Arcite,” “The Vicar
of Wakefield,” “The Sir Roger de Coverley Papers,” “Ancient Mariner,”
“The Flight of a Tartar T»ibe,” “The House of the Seven Gables, ” “The
Vision of Sir Launfal,” and Pope’s “Homer’s Iliad.” The recitation work
is devoted partly to a special examination of the prescribed texts, partly to
exemplification by the students of the general characteristics of the various
writers and periods. In addition to this, original laboratory work is re­
quired. The aim is to bring the student into direct and sympathetic con­
tact with those books he should learn to read and appreciate, and thus foster
in him a genuine love of good literature.
JUNIOR READING COURSE.

In order that students may be better prepared for the literary work of
the Senior year they are expected, before presenting themselves for the
Junior examination, to give evidence of some knowledge of Literature. In
order that the requirements may be uniform, courses of reading have been
prepared. The following is the course for 1900-1901:

Spring Term -{ Mill on the Floss.
DRA'^INO.

The time is near at hand when a knowledge of Drawing will be required
of every teacher. It is a valuable aid in nearly every department of school
work. The aim of the instructor in this department is to make the work as
practicable as po.ssible. Copying is not drawing. The work requires twen­
ty-four weeks and embraces the following: Elementary designs, free hand
drawing, angular and parallel perspective, light and shade, theory of color,
landscape, marine, map drawing and rapid sketching from nature and relief
forms.
LATIN.

In Latin we aim to make a thorough and exhaustive study of the prin­
ciples of the language, and to give so thorough a drill in Latin Grammar as
to facilitate an extended study of the language. We strive to show the close
relationship which exists between the Latin language and our own. Eng­
lish words from Latin roots are traced to the original. The life and cam­
paigns of Csesar are critically studied. The geography of Gaul and Ancient

20

PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

Italy, the history of the destruction of the Republic, and the formation of
the Roman Empire, are made the subjects of interesting talks with the in­
structor. The Roman method of pronunciation is used. Advanced work
in Latin is being done constantly and students can enter, both in Latin and
Greek, the classical courses of our best colleges.
ARITHMETIC.

The work in Arithmetic is divided into two grades.
One begins at Decimal Fractions and completes the work as far as Per­
centage.
Another grade begins with Percentage and finishes the book.
There is also a general review class arranged for each term.
An effort is being made to give the pupils an intelligent knowledge of
the subject, and the power of independent thought, so as to obtain results
rapidly and correctly. Mechanical processes and routine methods are of no
value. Students here are trained to logical habit of thought, and are stimu­
lated to a high degree of intellectual energy.
ALOEBRA.

The work in Algebra belongs to the Junior year.
We recognize the fact that Algebra is essential in all the higher mathe­
matics, hence thoroughness is our aim. Three successive terms are given to
this branch. It
commenced early in the course, and prosecuted with
vigor.
GEOMETRY.

It is generally conceded that the best mental drill is derived from the
demonstration of geometrical theorems. In no other study can the lan­
guage and thinking power of students be so well trained to clearness and
conciseness. Problems are deduced from the theorems of the book, thus
making the subject both interesting and practical. Every term there are
students in both plane and solid geometry, and when needed, classes in
trigonometry and surveying are formed.
PHYSICAL GEOGRAPHY.

As aids to the study of Physical Geography, there are available at all
times maps, charts, globes; also apparatus for illustrating the relative sizes,
positions and movements of the bodies of the solar system. Especial atten­
tion is paid to the physical causes underlying the various phenomena treated
under this subject. As far as practicable, such subjects as atmospheric
pressure, intermittent springs, etc., are explained by actual experiment be­
fore the class.
PHYSICAL TRAINING.

The aim of this department is to prepare teachers to teach gymnastics
in the public schools, and also improve the general health of the students
while in the school, giving them increased mental and physical ability and
a greater mastery over themselves. All members of the school are expected

4

PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

to spend two periods a week in the gymnasium. A large gymnasium de­
voted to the use of this department has been supplied with a great variety
of light apparatus, and more will be put in during the year.
Ladies are requested to come provided with a blouse waist and short
skirt and divided skirt of navy blue, the waist having a sailor collar with V
front, trimmed with three rows of plain, narrow, white braid.
Men are expected to provide themselves with gymnasium shoes.
HISTORY.

To gain a broader view of the History of the United States than that
given in our ordinary text-books, has been the aim of the History Depart­
ment during the past year, and we lay especial stress upon institutional his­
tory. A knowledge of the important events in European History from the
fifteenth to the eighteenth century was found necessary to thoroughly un­
derstand the Colonial period.
Since European politics determined American politics from the begin­
ning of the Revolutionary period through two decades of the nineteenth
century, the aim of the work was to familiarize the class with the political
history of both countries.
The platforms of the various political parties and the great issues of the
time have all become familiar to the pupils.
CIVICS.

Realizing the importance of intelligent citizenship in a republic, and
the necessity of clear views of our social and political relations, much stress
is laid on this branch of study. The nature, theory and necessity of gov­
ernment, together with the historical epochs through which the race has
passed in its efforts to reach a higher and broader liberty, are all explicitly
set forth. The rights, obligations and duties of citizenship, involving the
study of man in his various relations to the family, the church and the
state, are carefully studied. In fact, man’s relative place in his environ­
ment is the thought around which all the instruction centers. His relation
as a citizen of a republic, to the local unit, to his quasi state, and to that
overshadowing sovereignty which we call the government of the United
States, is thoroughly impressed. We aim to make not- only intelligent citi­
zens, but through a study of his natural and acquired rights we endeavor to
make each student an honest, upright and capable citizen. The constitution of
the United States and the constitution of Pennsylvania are carefully dis­
sected. The several departments of the state and national governments and
the intricate relations existing between these two forms of government are
examined with great care.
Lectures and lessons on the township, the borough, the county are of
frequent occurrence. The school district as the unit of the educational sys­
tem of the state is studied with special reference to its value to a prospective
teacher,

22

PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

POLITICAL OEOGRAPHY.
The chief aim of this department is to make not only students of Geog­
raphy but teachers, hence we insist on even more of the subject than the
prospective teacher will probably be called upon to teach. We also require
students to sketch and model readily and to study good methods of present­
ation. The Physics or “causal notion” is kept prominent throughout the
whole course. They are so trained that they are enabled to recognize, each
in his own neighborhood, the elements and forces of the whole world. We
endeavor to follow the thought of Ritter, who says: “Wherever our home
is, there lie all the material which we need for the study of the entire
globe.” The course includes descriptive, commercial and historical Geog­
raphy; in short, we place the subject in the very front rank of nature studies
and make it the most comprehensive of all branches in the school cour.se.

THE SCIENCES.
The scope and aim of the various departments in Science are such as to
prepare teachers for the requirements ’ of any of our public schools, and to
meet the wants of those who may wish to do advanced work, either as a
preparation for some one of the various professions, or in anticipation of a
course of study in a higher institution. In no department is the object to
entertain or simply to suggest, but to give opportunity for that development
of mind which results in power, discipline and mental fiber. To obtain
these results the following attainments are kept in view:
1. The development of the power of defining.
2. The development of the power of observation.
3. The development of the power of accurate description of objects and
phenomena observed.
4. Logical reasoning from observed facts—induction.
56.- The
development of the power of deductive reasoning.
The acquisition of scientific knowledge, professional and academic,
including a familiarity with scientific apparatus, its care and uses.
CHEMISTRY,
The subject of chemistry is taught throughout the year. Students may
begin this work any time, but those who can continue the subject until it is
completed without interruption will reap the best results. The laboratory
is complete in all the apparatus necessary for the speedy acquisition of
chemical knowledge. The student is required to keep his note book con­
stantly before him and record all he observes in his experiments. He is
also required, so far as may be possible, to explain the molecular changes
taking place, the manifestations of energy, its transformations and products.
A well lighted, commodious and convenient room on the first floor of

OF THE TWELFTH DISTRICT.

23

the science building is used for this purpose. It is equipped with chemical
tables of recent design, supplied with shelving, drawers, distilled water, etc.
The cabinet is well supplied with all necessary chemicals, which are prop­
erly labeled and catalogued. In the same room is a constant supply of
spring water, which together with the drainage system is indispensable to a
chemical laboratory. Other articles, such as gas receivers, balances, ther­
mometers, air pumps, distilling apparatus, barometer, beakers, bell jars,
porous cups, crucibles, cruets, hydrometers, glass tubing, specific gravity
bottles, etc., etc., are in daily use by the students.
The courses offered are as follows:
I. General chemistry, laboratory work daily, lectures and recitations
weekly, continued throughout the year.
II. Chemistry of soils, laboratory work daily, lectures weekly, contin­
ued through two terms.
III. Quantitative analysis, laboratory work, lectures and reading.
The amount of work to be done in this course is at the option of the student
and is open only to those who have had course I or its equivalent.
The text-books used are Williams’ Chemistry, Prescott’s Elements of
Chemistry, Freer’s Theoretical Chemistry, and Prescott & Johnson’s Text­
book of Chemistry. The chemical library is also open to students who
may wish to use it. It contains a number of standard works on this subject.
PHYSICS.

The subject of Physics receives the attention its importance demands.
The Seniors begin the subject in the fall term and continue it throughout
the year. We believe that few physical laboratories are supplied with a
greater variety of apparatus than this one. A few of the pieces are a Richie
air pump, a double piston air pump, Bunsen’s air pump, a large plate elec­
tric machine, a hand dynamo, whirling table, hydrostatic bellows, hydrom­
eters, reaction wheel, Torricellian tube, barometers, Marriott’s tubes, four
models of pumps, numerous pieces of apparatus to illustrate the phenomena
of electricity and magnetism. A few of these are an electroscope, an electrophorus, Leyden batteries, electric chime. Voltaic cells of various forms.
Voltaic batteries. Astatic galvanometer, dipping needles, compasses and
magnets of various forms, telephonic apparatus, electric bells, Ruhmkorff’s
coil, incandescent lamps, etc., etc. For teaching the principles of sound
the laboratory is supplied with tuning forks, a vacuum bell,, a rachet wheel,
sonometer, reed pipes, etc. For the study of light a fine heliostat is pro­
vided; other pieces are concave mirrors, numerous lenses, prisms, stereo­
scope, crystals of Iceland spar, etc.
In Physics the following courses are offered:
I. Elementary Physics, Mechanics, Sound, Light, Heat, Electricity
and Magnetism, continued throughout the year, daily recitations.
II. Laboratory work in Physics, Fall and Winter terms. Lectures and
recitations weekly,

24

PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

III. Advanced course of Physics. A knowledge of Trigonometry and
familiarity with logarithms is required.
IV. Advanced Mechanics. A knowledge of the Calculus is required.
The library is well supplied with reading matter bearing upon these
subjects. The text-books used are Avery’s Elements of Natural Philosophy,
Carhart & Chute’s Laboratory Manual, Carhart & Patterson’s University
Physics.
BOTANY.

Botany is required of the Juniors during the Spring term. The course
requires work in Systematic and Physiological Botany. Besides the usual
amount of field work required and the study of a text-book for the purpose
of familiarizing the student with the terms used in descriptive botany, the
student is required to make observations upon numerous experiments upon
plants and to draw conclusions from them. These experiments include
such as bear upon the subject of absorption of liquid nutriment, movement
of water of the plant, absorption of gases, respiration and other forms of
metabolism, irritability and growth. About twenty experiments are in­
cluded in each of the above divisions of Plant Physiology.
The work of Cryptogamic Botany may be pursued at any season of the
year. The school is provided with alcoholic material of algEe, hundreds of
specimens of fungi, and the vicinity abounds in numerous specimens of the
vascuUr cryptogams. In Histological Botany the work covers the minute
examination and delineation of the structure of roots, stems and leaves of
both the endogens and exogens. For the prosecution of this work this school
is equipped with a water system, compound microscopes of the latest design,
abbe camera lucida, reagents and stains.
The courses offered in Botany are as follows:
I. Systematic Botany. Plant analysis and the preparation of an Her­
barium. Recitations and lectures daily through the Spring term.
II. Plant Physiology. Laboratory work daily and lectures weekly
during one term.
III. Histology. Laboratory work daily and lectures weekly through
two terms.
IV. Algae. Laboratory work daily with supplementary reading, lec­
tures occasionally. Time at the option of the student.
V. Fungi. Laboratory work daily, with supplementary reading, lec­
tures about weekly. Time at the option of the student. (This course in­
cludes work upon the Myxomycetes and Bacterial cultures.)
VI. The Vascular Cryptograms. Laboratory work daily, with sup­
plementary reading, lectures weekly. Time at the option of the student.
VII. Plant Embryology. Laboratory work, with supplementary
reading, lectures occasionally. (This course is open only to those who
have a knowledge of microscopic technique.)
The Botanical Library is open at all times to students. It contains

25

OF THE TWELFTH DISTRICT.

such works as Cook’s Fungi, Farlow’s Algse, Vines’ Text-Book of Botany,
Bessey’s Botany, (complete course,) Goodell’s Physiological Botany, McDougal’s Plant Physiology, Illustrated Flora of the Northern United States
and Canada by %itton and Brown, Wood’s Botany, Botany of the Western
States by Coulter, the Botanical Gazette, etc.
ZOOLOGY.

*

The subject of Zoology is pursued only by Post Graduate students and
special students taking the regular Normal course. It will be conceded
that no one can fully appreciate the principles of Physiology who does not
have some idea of the facts relating to Zoology. This truth is kept in mind
throughout all the work. The museum containing hundreds of well pre­
served vertebrate forms aids greatly in systematic zoology. The school
hopes to be in possession of a microtome and paraffine bath in the near
future for the preparation of tissues for microscopic work. At present,
however, it has access to slides permanently mounted for this work. The
course in invertebrate morphology begins with the amoeba and leads
through such forms as paramoecim, hyra, earthworm, starfish, crayfish and
mussel up to the.frog. The work in Entomology embraces the classifica­
tion of insects, together with the dissection of the more common forms.
In Zoology the following courses are offered:
I. Systematic Zoology. Recitations daily throughout one term.
II. Invertebrate Morphology. Laboratory work daily, with supple­
mentary reading, lectures and recitations weekly.
III. Entomology. Laboratory work twice a week. Recitations daily.
Continued through one term.

IV. Embryology of the chick. Laboratory work, with supplementary
reading. Recitations and lectures weekly. Continued throughout two
terms.
,
Such works as Claus and Sedgwick’s Zoology, Balfour’s Comparative
Embryology, Agassiz and Gould’s Zoology, Hartwig’s Embryology, Foster
and Balfour’s Embryology, Packard’s Zoology, etc., are accessible to the
student.
PHYSIOLOGY.

The aim in Physiology is primarily to fit teachers for public school
work. Digestion and assimilation, the storage and liberation of energy be­
ing the vital activities peculiar to organized beings, a few preliminary lec­
tures upon chemistry are given that these phenomena may be better under­
stood. The subjects of Physiology proper and Hygiene are taught from a
biological standpoint. A manikin showing the muscular and vascular sys­
tems, a fine set of charts showing the effects of narcotics and alcohol, two
skeletons, one mounted and one unmounted, are owned by the school.
In Physiology two courses are offered:
I. Physiology as found in the elementary text-book. Recitations and
lectmes daily throughout one term.
II. Histology. Laboratory work and reading.

ASTRONOMY,

Astronomy may be taken up during the Fall or Winter term. Young’k
General Astronomy is used. The student should have a knowledge of
Trigonometry in order to obtain the best results, though it is not required;
The school js provided with a mounted three-inch telescope for this work:'
GEOLOGY.

This subject may be pursued during the Fall or Winter tetin. Winchell’s Geological Studies serves as an outline. The student is encouraged
to collect, grind and mount fossils for microscopic examination. The li­
brary contains the usual books of reference upon these subjects, and the
museum contains a large number of specimens.

PROFESSIONAL DEPARTMENT.
THEORETICAL SIDE.

The professional side of Normal Schools is what makes them unique
and gives them a paramount right to be called the heart of the public school
system. We have already discussed the academic side of our school;,but,
as we have said in another place, such work in a Normal School has also a
distinctive professional value. For convenience, however, we will observe
the ordinary distinction and will include under the professional side simply
the Science of Education and the Art of Education. We desire to empha­
size this two-fold division. Under the first, we have such branches as
Psychology, both rational and physiological, and History of Education.
Under the art side, we have the Model School (w f«/ra) which not only
affords the necessary opportunity for child study, including the mental,
the physical and the moral growth, but affords our student teachers the
best possible opportunity to apply and make practical the theoretical side
of their professional work.
PSYCHOLOGY.

Psychology, or the science of mind, is the soul of pedagogy, aiid it is
our aim to so emphasize it that its professional value becomes apparent.
The recent advance in the methods of studying this important subject has
made its presentation no easy task. For several years past, the word
''new" Psychology has been the pet phrase of educational doctrinaries, and
many honest teachers have been afraid to confess that they still found in­
spiration in Aristotle, Hamilton, Porter and McCosh. But already there is
an apparent ebb of the tide and we are beginning to realize that whatever
differences we may have, they are more in name than in substance. The
greatest contribution that the new school of Psychology has made to the
old science has been the emphasis given to the study of child development
and psycho-physics. This -^has -been a distinct and most valuable contri..

bution and with the large increase in the number of laboratories created in
our higher universities and best Normal Schools for this kind of work,
many good results are yet to come. This phase of the subject is not only
extremely fascinating but very valuable, and at Edinboro plans are now be­
ing laid for scientific work along the lines of child study and physiological
pyschology. Another valuable result of the efforts of the new school has
been to eliminate from the science the subtleties of metaphysics as well as
the formal analysis of mind. In our work here, we give our students a
full outline of rational Psychology, and upon that we build a complete
structure. We show how the modern phases, as child study, empirical
Psychology, and apperception have had their origin and development. The
text-books on the subjects are supplemented by practical talks on sensa­
tion, the percept, the concept. Enough of the physiology of the nervous
system is given to make the current literature and the statistics of the lab­
oratories easily comprehended. During all stages of the course the results
are correlated with the work done in the department of Physiology as well
as with the practical work in the Model School.
Last year the work was supplemented with a course in apperceptive
Psychology, using De Garmo’s “Essentials of Methods.” And when the
History of Education was taken up, frequent use was made of the standard
works of the leading educators, both of the past and of the present. In
this way an opportunity was afforded for studying not only the best
thoughts of the writers, but also the evolutions of pedagogical literature.
We thus endeavor to preserve that historical unity that is so essential in all
scientific study.
TRAINING OR PRACTICAL SIDE—MOOa SCHOOL.

A model Model School, a practical school, well patronized, well
equipped, well organized and well managed, has always been considered a
desirable feature of a Normal School, but in these days of scientific investi­
gation, when the “laboratory method” has been extended even to pedagogy,
such a school is a recognized necessity. To maintain a school of this char­
acter, to attain these ideal conditions, has always been the aim and policy
of the Edinboro Normal School. That it has succeeded is well attested by
the past record of the Training Department here, as well as by its present
excellence and efficiency.
The Model School rooms occupy almost the entire lower floor of Normal
Hall, the largest, finest building on the campus. They consist of a large
study room, an equally large gymnasium and seven class rooms. These
rooms are all well lighted, comfortably heated and are provided with mod­
ern furniture of an approved style. The class rooms are well equipped with
maps, globes, charts, reference books and other aids in teaching, while the
book cases and study room tables show a liberal and well-assorted supply of
books and periodicals for supplementary reading.
This department has an enrollment of ninety pupils. These are so
classified as to represent every grade of school work, from the Kindergarten

28
PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL
--------------- ------------- ------ ^------------------------------ ------------------------ -------- ------ ------- ----------_L.

to the High School. The student-teachers are required to spend one period
daily in the Model School for a whole year, teaching one-half of this daily
period and observing the plans and methods of the principal or her assist­
ants the other half. In addition to this, each student-teacher, for a definite
length of time, is made responsible for the order and work of the studyroom during certain periods of the day. As this room usually contains
about forty pupils engaged in seat-work, its management is no light test of
a student’s power to control and superintend pupils en masse.
Both the study-room and class-room work are closely supervised by the
principal of the Model School, who holds frequent individual interviews
with the student-teachers for the purpose of giving directions, offering sug­
gestions, or making criticisms. Weekly meetings are also held, where at­
tention is called to general errors in teaching, methods are analyzed and
leading pedagogical questions are discussed.
In accordance with the idea that a consideration of the advance move­
ments in education should form an essential feature of Normal School train­
ing, this department gives special attention to the subjects of kindergarten
work, nature study, concentration and child study. Particular stress is laid
upon the last, and the subject next year will be given a thoroughly practical
and scientific bearing, by the introduction of “laboratory” work.
A series of lectures on “Primary Methods” is given each year by the
principal of the Model School to all members of the school, and special
courses are arranged for post-graduate and other students desiring training
work. During the coming year there will be nine grades, all in charge of
one of the best known primary teachers in the State. A small tuition fee
will be charged ninth-grade students.

BUSINESS DEPARTMENT.
Commercial and Shorthand work are now required to a greater or less
extent in every department of business life. Systematic training encourages
and stimulates systematic thinking. Purely systematic methods are the
only means to the highest degree of success in any of the vocations of life
into which every young man and woman will eventually be called to enter.
Such training is received in a thorough scientific course of business study
and practice. A bafik and other offices will be used during the entire course.
COMMERCIAL COURSE.

Our commercial course includes bookkeeping, single and double entry,
thorough banking ; a thorough drill in actual business practice, involving a
knowledge of all kinds of commercial papers and business forms, etc.; a
course in Commercial Law, Civil Government, Rapid Calculations, Political
Economy, and lectures upon business and legal subjects by competent men

OF THB

29

of different professions. These branches are all presented in an every day,
business manner, thus enabling the student to begin real work \he day of
entering school. Theory and practice are combined from the first lesson.
JHORTHAND COURSE.

In our Shorthand course we teach the “American System” of Phonogra­
phy, the most widely used and complete system in this country. A thor­
ough training in typewriting from simple letter writing to legal forms and
manifolding is given. An understanding of English Grammar, English
Rhetoric and Business Correspondence is also required. Dictations are
given from the first, the pupil learning to write from the sound of the words
rather than copy from sight. Our aim is to make this course of instruction
accurate, comprehensive and thoroughly practical.
In the Commercial course all text books, blanks and other necessary
supplies will be furnished by the school, and are included in the terms pub­
lished below. For the Shorthand course the pupil pays for the text book (a
small expense); the typewriter and all supplies necessary for that practice
are furnished by the school, and included in the terms. Everything will be
new, of the best kind, and thoroughly up to date in each course.
Proper diplomas or certificates will be given to students graduating
from the Business Department or completing either course in that depart­
ment.

ELOCUTION DEPARTMENT.
This is the fifth year that we have had an Elocution Department,
and it has already shown marked improvement in our school work in many
ways. The aim of this department is to train the student to express himself
fully, and to teach others to do so. Our course can be completed in two
years, the work being divided as follows:
first year.

Physical Cwtorg-Exercises for health and strength.
Reading—To gain clear articulation, good pronunciation, phrasing,
emphasis and expression.
Exercises for grace and ea.se.
Voice—Exercises to develop and have perfect control of the voice.
Recitations—That the student may understand the moods of man and
how to appear in each.

The recitations selected are of the best and are chosen from the standard
literary works and recitation books.
Mind Training—Which, enables the student to memorize rapidly.
SECOND YEAR.

Physical Culture—Stronger movements.
Philosophy of Expression.
Recitaiions—More difficult and original work.
Shakespeare—To be studied from the dramatic standpoint.
Delsarte—Poses, pantomimes, expression.
All students graduating in Elocution must have a knowledge of rhetoric,
liteiature and all the common branches, at least.
Our system is the one taught by Prof. Byron W. King. Arrangements
have been made with Professor King enabling students graduating in our
department to graduate at King’s School of Oratory with one year’s study.
READING.

The reading classes of the Normal are taught under the direction of this
department. We find reading has been neglected very much and it is our
aim to make good readers.
DELSARTE.

The Delsarte classes are large and all the students are interested in
them. We have in these classes drills, marches and poses that benefit the
students in many ways.
ELOCUTION.

Elocution is taught in private lessons which are strictly private. Should
we think a student lacks in qualification and talent for a successful worker
he is told the truth at once.
PHYSICAL CULTURE.

The Physical Culture classes belong to the regular work of Junior year.
Free work is mostly taught, although we have Indian club and dumb-bell
drills.
ENTERTAINMENT.

An entertainment is given every term by the Elocution Department, the
Delsarte classes contributing largely to the entertaining and artistic features
of the evening’s entertainment.

MUSIC DEPARTMENT.
The aim of this department is not only to prepare teachers for leading
the music in public schools, but also to offer facilities for higher musical
culture in voice and piano. Advanced courses have been arranged with
-special reference to this end.
The musical development will be made to keep pace with the.i*uechanical execution by the study of pieces from the works of the masters,
especial attention being given to the cultivation of a musical touch and a
correct interpretation of the standard works. The director of the depart­
ment has been appointed the examiner in music for Northwestern Pennsyl­
vania by the New England Conservatory.

VOICE.

Vocal music is universally conceded to be the highest type of music.
We owe it to ourselves and to society to bring out the capabilities of our
voices, and if specially endowed we should have our gifts carefully trained.
Sfiecial care is taken in the first year’s work in the proper placing of the
voice, as this is of the utmost importance to the singer, and no satisfactory
progress can be made until this is accomplished. Attention is also given
to proper management of the breath, phrasing and artistic tone, all of
which are useful in connection with study of standard studies, songs, and
arias from operas and oratorios.
In addition to the regular course in voice culture, this department
makes a specialty of a chorus and sight-singing class, which is free to all
Normal and Conservatory students, and is a required study for all Normal
graduates. Very few teachers are qualified to successfully teach vocal music
in the public schools, and the true reason would seem to be a lack of train­
ing in their Normal work. After completing this course, students have the
opportunity of teaching it in the Model School, thus preparing themselves
for presenting the subject in their future teaching.
THEORETICAL QOURSE.

The Theoretical course includes the study of Harmony, Theory and
Musical History. The work in Harmony is done under the supervision of
the New England Conservatory professors, who make out the examination

34

PENNSYLVANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

questions at the completion of the course. Students must pass this exam­
ination before obtaining a diploma in piano work.
This Harmony course covers one-fourth of the Harmony course at the
Conservatory, comprising the study of the scales and structure of chords,
through the dominant sevenths and their resolutions.
The work in the Theory of Music also covers one-fourth of the work
done in this line at the Conservatory. In this branch of study notation,
phrasing and rythm a-e especially taught.
In the Hi,story of Music the student studies the lives of the composers
and becomes acquainted with their different .styles and schools.

GENERAL INFORMATION.
LIBRARY.

f

p

s

The library contains over seven thousand carefully selected bound
volumes, besides 1,900 pamphlets. Its value and utility depend largely on
the intelligent means employed to bring its contents within convenient
reach. The Librarian, by his skillful use of the blackboard, calls the attention of the students to matters of current history, and by maps and other
drawings presents comprehensive views that are of invaluable assistance to
every department. He has also devoted much time to the compilation of a
reference book based on the Dewey system. Within the past year over ten
thousand items have been classified almost wholly from current literature.
Upon the reading tables are found;
monthlies.

RELIGIOUS EXERCISES.

This school, while it is strictly non-sectarian, exercises great care in the
moral training of its students.
Students are expected to attend public worship each Sabbath morning.
There are flourishing societies of the Y. M. C. A. and Y. W. C. A. in
the school.
A student prayer meeting is held each Sunday evening.
LITERARY SOCIETIES.

The great value of literary culture was early recognized by the manage­
ment of this school. The result was that societies for drilling in readings,
recitations, essays, orations, debates, etc., were established. Out of these
have grown the present two well organized and efficient literary societies,
namely, the Potter and the Philo Everett, besides one debating club. The
Potter is the older of the two societies, and was organized about 1862; the
Philo on the 22d of August, 1864. At the organization of the latter society,
Hon. S. M. Brainerd, late a Member of Congress, who was then a student
in the school, acted as secretary of the meeting. The first minutes of the

38

PBNNSYI^VANIA STATE NORMAL SCHOOL

society are entered in his handwriting. These two societies are in a highly
flourishing condition. They each have beautifully furnished rooms, with a
square piano in each, finely carpeted, and each has a large stage, with cur­
tains and the necessary scenery to enable them to give dramatic entertain- 4
ments. Considerable friendly rivalry exists between them and they are in '
the habit of giving annual contests for prizes in which chosen members from '
each take part. The time of meeting of each society is at 4 o’clock Monday ’
afternoon. The work done is of high order of excellence, and the students '
of the school are urged to join and take part in the weekly exercises. Edininboro is especially proud of these two institutions, and justly believes that
in no other Normal School in the State is the literary side of the school, in
so far as public performance is concerned, better taken care of.
ACCESS.

The nearest railroad station is Cambridge Springs, on what is known as
the Erie Railroad, and electric railway connects with trains at that place.
This road makes good connections for the south and west at Meadville,
eighteen miles away, and at Corry, on tjie Philadelphia & Erie, for the
north and east.
RULES.

Householders who rent rooms to students will be held responsible for
the conduct of such students, and on the 28th of each month must send in
a written report, blanks for which will be furnished at the office.
All students attending any department of this school who do not live
with their parents or guardians, and who are not under the immediate charge
of such parents or guardians, shall be subject to the following rules and
regulations:
1. All students must room and board in the school dormitories, unless
for special reason they may be permitted to go to private homes in town.
(See page 17.)
2. No student shall be permitted to engage a boarding place in town
without first having consulted the Principal.
3. Permission to change rooms or boarding places must in every case
be obtained from the Principal.
4. Students must not be absent from their rooms in the evening withr
out the consent of a teacher.
5. Students are expected to retire at 10 o’clock.
6. Students may receive calls only during the hours devoted to recrea­

school or not, without the consent of the Principal or the Preceptress.
7. Each student will be held responsible for damage to his room and

9. The use of profane language, either on or off the grounds, is
strictly forbidden. Offenders will be punished at the discretion of the
faculty.
10. As this institution is not a reformatory, all students whose conduct
is persistently unseemly and unbecoming the character of a lady or a gen­
tleman will be dismissed from the school. Grave offences will meet with
the prompt expulsion of the offenders.
11. The aim of our school is character building as well as intellectual
culture, hence, all students are expected to act, while members of the
school, as ladies and gentlemen.
12. Students who register for the spring term will be expected to re­
main until all Commencement exercises are over, unless for good reasons
they are excused by the Principal.
The management of this school reserves the right to make changes at
any time in these rules and regulations and to add to the same without
further notice.

TO VISITORS.
We extend to the parents and friends of pupils, to all interested in edu­
cation, a hearty invitation to visit the school and examine its methods of
work. County and city superintendents, high school principals, public
school teachers and school directors are especially invited to become ac­
quainted with its advantages as a training school for public school teachers.

interest in helping us to make a complete record of the names of all that
