The Arizona Territorial Normal School was established at Tempe by an Act of the Thirteenth Legislature, amended and re-enacted March rn, 1887. The objects of the school were declared by said Act to be the instruction of persons, both ·male and female, in the art of te8.ch.. ing, and in aII the various branches that pertain to a good common school education; also to give instruction in husbandry and agricultural chemistry, in· the fundamental law of the United States, and in what regards the rights and duties of citizenship. The school has been in active operation for six years, during which time there have attended the institution one hundred and forty-nine students, and fifteen have been graduated, eleven of whom have taught in the Territorial public schools since graduation. l\rlany others who have not graduated are doing active and meritorious work in the schools. r-----~~IW~=·T-Jl_RR_I~-RI_AL_N_O_RM_A_I._S_c~-00-~. - - - -·-7-1 I I Ii .t GENERAL INFORMATION. LOCATION. The Territorial Normal &boo! is located at Tempe, Maricopa County, on the line of the Maricopa & Phoenix Railroad. Its situation is in a healthy locality and in the mid.st of a farming community characterized by industry, thrift, good morals and good order. !' ' j ! l I QUAUFICATION8 FOR ADlll8810N.

For the accommodation o~ students entering later in the term, special examinations will be given on Monday of each week. ACCOMMODATION3. I The Normal School building is situated on a twenty-acre trad of fand, and is a brick structure, sixty by seventy feet in 8 ARIZONA TERRITORIAL NORMAL SCHOOL. ·size, and one story high. A ten-foot hall extends through the building from north to south. Four roon1s are provided, each thirty feet square. The entrance to the hall at each end is by double doors; and windows placed at regular intervals of a few feet around the rooms afford ample light and ventilation. The building is surmounted by a high roof, leaving a space of eight feet between the roof and the cei,ling. The entire structure is surrounded by a veranda twelve feet wide. Ventilators admit the passage of air in every direction, thus providing as cool a building as can be dovised for this climate. APPARATUS. The sshool 1s provided with excellent apparatus for illustrating the various subjects taught, and additions will be made to the supply of chemical, philosophical, and other apparatus as the same may be needed. LIBRARY. The Normal Library now consists of five hundred volumes, cov.ering the fields of history, science, education and literature. The valuable Smithsonian scientific publications have been placed in the library, and the principal magazines and reviews are received by the institution regularly. All necessary books of reference are at the service.of the students. Students alone are allowed to take books from the building, and then only for two weeks (if called for by another student), and are held responsible for the return of the volume in good condition. MUSEUM. 1 We respectfully solicit the friends of education to assist us in the collection of specimens of birds, insects, minei-als, etc., also fossils and arch::eological specimens. The name of the donor, the !Ocation from which the specimen was obtained, and all other particulars known should accom- · pany the package' All contribntions should be boxed carefully and sent by express to the Normal School, Tempe. During the last year friends of the school have given many valuable specimens. By their aid, and the activity of students I [__________··-----····--·--·-·-- ARIZONA TERRITORIAL NORMAL.SCHOOL. 9 and teachers. the school now possesses a working collection of minerals, ores, insects, Arizona plants and geological forma'tions; many of the more common archreological remains have also been received. EXPEN8ES. The average cost for books, supplies, etc., will be about $15.00 per pupil for each year. Good board and lodging can be easily obtained in the best private families, at prices ranging from $20.00 to $•5.00 per month. By the formation of clubs expenses can be reduced below even this amount. Tuition is free to those who obtain an appointment from a member of the Legislature, and to those who sign a declaration that they attend. the school for the purpose of preparing themselves for teaching in the public schools of Arizona. All others are charg~d one dollar per month. GRADUATION. Ill order to graduate, the student must be at least eighteen years of age, must have attended the school for a perlod of at least twenty-two weeks, and must pass a written examination in all the studies of the coµrse. If it appears from the resulting papers and the record of daily recitations-and deportment that the applicants for graduation possess the learning and other qualifications necessary to teach a good common school, said persons shall receive certificates of graduation which will entitle the holders to teach a grammar school in any county in the Territory of Arizon~. D/8G/PLINE. In a Normal School little need be said concerning discipline. It is expected that every pupil will exhibit in his daily con- duct those qualities of head and heart which should always distinguish the earnest learner and teacher. The ability to control others is never found in those w~o cannpt control themselves. In accordance with this principle, t~e pupils will be expected so to conduct themselves as to merit the appellation of true men and women-an honor to themselves and their communities. IO ARIZONA TERRITORIAL NORMAL SCHOOL. 8UGGE8TION8. It is suggested that students purchase no hooks until they have consulted their teachers, but it is -well to bring tjiose which they already possess. We earnestly solicit Teachers and County Superintendents to urge upon those who intend to become_ teachers the importance of entering some department of the Normal School (the pedagogical certainly), for the sake of obtaining that helpful training, the lack of which has hampered so many of our edu~ cators. County Superintendents and Boards of Trustees in want of teachers are respeCtfully solicited to communicate with the Prindpal of the Normal Schou!. Although the primary idea of the Normal School ·is to prepare for the schools of the Territory a supply of teachers, trained and equipped. for their work, it is also intended to -futnish an opportunity to the youth of our country to secure an education beyond that possible in the grammar school, . and to round out and complete the Common School system· of the Territory. ' The course of study in the Normal school will therefore follow that of the Public Schools in regular sequence, and pupils on completing the Grammar course will be eligible to admittance to the Normal, arid we request the SchOol Principals to· second our efforts in this direction. To parents throughout the Territory we offer an opportunity to educate their children at home equal to that offered by other similar institutions elsewhere. We ask the people of _.i\.rizona to compare our course and work with those of other Normal Schools. I I L___ --··--····-··-------··-·---·-···-- ·-·-- -- --·------------------· -- --------------;·--!

Jlemal'ks on (li";onl'se of .Stui\y. The Course of Study has been arranged in accordance with the order of mental development, and the successive studies·are intended to furnish the healthful, educative discipline which the growing mind requires in order to produce complete and distinctive character. Believing that there is no subject of burr.an thought whiCh will not return large dividends in the form of mental growth to an investment of earnest, sustained labor, the course has, nevertheless, been composed of those studies which will be of practical benefit in every-day life, as well as. conducive to higher intellectual ability. The importance of following the course in the seledion of work cannot be urged too strongly upon the student. No tin1e is lost in finishing the lower branches before .proceeding to the higher, and much is gained in the way of clearer comprehension, definiteness of ideas, and more t€:na~i0u;S memory. Pupils are reqnesteu not to leave any study half-done, un,less it is impossible to do otherwise. Fragmentary knowledge, though indeed of much worth, iS not to be compared for_ a moment-. to that deep, thorough, connected knowledge which distinguishes the true scholar. Students desiring to take any work out of its regular place in the course are required to consult with the teachers,· and ob· tain their permission, befoi"e beginning the study.

The syllabus is intended to show the general outline of each subject as it is taught in the school. It should be studied in connection with the time tables and tabulated conrse of study given elsewhere. The order of study is not preserved in the syllabus, but it is in the course. The syllabus is not a niere analysis of a text book, but the record of work already performed in the school. A careful reading of it cannot but support the claim of the school to . thoroughness of work and advanced methods of presentation. Examination will show that wherever possible the aim kept steadily in view is to lead the pupil to make practical applic.ations of his knowledge as fast as it is gained. There is no real education where the power of doing goes halting far behind the power of thinking. To in· sure thoroughness of understanding, examinations are held once a month, and a permanent record kept of the student's standing. PEDAGOGY. PRACTICAL PEOA80GY.-8ixth Term.
