The standard may not at present be fixed so high, but the state should no longer hesitate to take an advanced step regarding the tralning of teachers “It can, 1 that after rtified to ught or deputy super we may de with say ach think, now safely require July 1, 1904, no person shall b teach who has not previc pursued a scholastic equivalent to that given in an accr High school. The result of the passage of such o measure would be to stimulate edu catlonal zegd, to raiso the standard of ad- mission to the teachers’ profession, and in the near future give to our schools teach- ers with a broader knowledge of the gen eral subject of educatfon. Such teachers would be able to inspire pupils with a grenter degree of confidence n their abil ity to teach Need of Norn lited 1 Seh “The enactment of a law embodying such a provision as that indicated would prove of assistance to schools which now glve normal instruction by at least partially removing the necessity of glving so much time to academic work, thus enabling them o glve emphasis to the professional sub 8. The passage of such a law would in no sense remove the necessity of normal schools and normal training. A normal school is more than a high school or an academy.
