LIKES THE COUNTY NORMAL,S
.
.
Last week we published a clipping in our editorial column which
favored the abolishing of some of our county normal schools. Here
is an article by a citizen from l\lerrill who takes another view. This
opinion appeared in the Milwaukee Journal:
To The Journal: I am in no way connected with the Lincoln
County Normal or any other school and this article has not been
solicited by anyone connected with county normals, but I want to set
forth th_e actual benefits that a school of this kind gives to the one
who has not the means to send his children beyond high school.
The Lincoln County Normal has an enrollment of 40 and last
year the cost of operation was below $9,000, approximately $225 per
pupil, while the s.tate normal cost per pupil is about $400.
Out of the 40 pupils not one would have gone to a state normal.
Parents are not financially able to send them. I have had a daughter
attending Lawrence and also a state normal and I am here to tell you
it cost me about $800 a year while she was away from home, while
the year she attended the county normal it did not cost me over $100,
including everything.
Another thing: The aYerage pupil coming out of high school is
too young to be far away from parents. Another year at home, attending the county normal, gives the pupil a chance to become more
mature before going out into the world.
Your editorials state that there are too many teachers. '\Veil,
what of it~ I haYe talked \\·ith literally hundreds of parents and
they are planning on their children attending county normals and are
liP in arms about any talk of discontinuing them. And their answer
usually is: ''Sure, fix it so only the rich man's son or daughter can
get a better education or become a teacher.''

THE INQUIRING REPORTER
THE QUESTION: Do you favor the
' 'tuition plan' '
of purchasing an
' 'Iris' '? The plan suggests raising the
tuition per semester from $21 to $22.
This would enable the Iris staff to sell
the annuals to the students for $2 instead of $3. All registered students
would receive a book.

the game was drawing to a close,
and a basket by Mundt brought
the score to Whitewater 18, Point
19.

taken by the Pointers, thus incurring a ~echnical foul. .Mundt
