W HaT IT MEANS.
THE PLAN TO ESTABLISH A NOR
MAL DEPARTMENT EXPLAINED
IT IS VERY BADLY NEEDED.
It Will be an Annex to the University,
Although an Entirely Separate In
stitution. and Will be Establish
ed at the Rock College.
ALL WANT IT.
The Normal School will be establish
ed at the Rock College, which is owned
by the University, and will be entirely
distinct trom this institution. It is not
intended for teachers but for those who
are learning how to teach, and will be
conducted upou the same plan us regu
lar normal schools anywhere else. Its
sessions will occupy the usual number of
months and it will be open to
m -n and women alike, there will be no
distinction made. It is apparent that
teachers in the public schools cannot,
attend this normal school as they can
not leave their places for a long enough
the University will become to then, ev-
everv summer. As has already been
outlined in the Banner,they may come
every May, commencing wich next
year, and attend the lectures of the U ni-
versity. There will be, beside this, a
lecture on pedagogy and this course
caunot fail to be of the greatest benefit
to them all. It will enable them to gain
new and better knowledge in various
departments aad at the end of each
term, to go back to their schools, wher
ever they may be, and take up their
work again and carry it on success
fully.
, This department, as well as the Nor
mal school, will be, of course, abso-
THE GREAT DAY
WILL MONDAY BE AS IT IS FIELD
DAY.
WHAT WILL BE DONE.
The Events and the Prizes—Reserved
Seats—Entry Fees For the Con-
The tvjerchants Cenerosly
' Appreciated.
There h as been some opposition to
the normal school which it has been pro
posed to establish as a branch of the
University.
And that opposition seems to have
been the result of a misunderstanding
of the purpose of the school and the
manner of its establishment and main
tenance.
In view of that fact a Bannfk repre
sentative yesterday called upon Dr.H.C.
White and asked him to explain, as ful
ly as possible, the objects of the depart
ment and the way it would be main
tained.
Dr, White is very much interested
aud takes a deep interest in the matter,'
and was anxious to set all doubts at rest
as far as that depaatment was con
cerned.
“The cause of this opposition,” he
said, “is simply a misunderstanding of
the matter and a confusion of the nor
mal department and the teachers insti
tute, both of' which will be established
here in Athens as branches of the Uni
versity.
The Normal School wil) be a branch
of the University and yet distinct trom
it. It is not proposed to take the pro
fessors away from their duties here,
that they may attend to dutiea else
where, or in any other way that they
are now doing. That is not the plan
we have formulated, by any means.
time to enable them to attend the j lately free, and open to both men and
course. It is for those who intend to
teach and not for the teachers.
One of the primary reasons for the
establishment of this school in Athens,
and as a branch of the University is
A GREAT FUTURE.
With the Normal department and
ni u ___ _ ........... the Teachers’lnstitute both running the

u&tur&lly, furnish a large number of I zen °* Empire State of the South
si_ n-Y- . : —a rnav no inf. with irlnwincr hnnoof ni*IHo
pupils. The primary necessity for a
teacher is an education which is broad
and useful, then comes the knowledge
of the methods of teachifig. Without
the education, no matter how well
versed he may be in pedagogy, a teach
er is useless, and with the normal school
in operation here both can be secured.
“A good normal Bcbool is a great and
crying need in Georgia aDd is a necessi
ty that must be supplied at once.
HOW SUPPORTED.
“A normal school can get no help
from the legislature, save as a branch
of the University. The constitution of
the stftte provides that money can be
appropriated for the advancement of
education, except in its rudimentary
forms, only through the University and
its branches. With the normal depart
ment as a branch, established here all
help that comes to the University will,
of course be help to that branch. And
besides that, all we assured that if the
normal department is established here
we will have help from the Peabody
fund until the state comes to our assis
tance. That means a great deal, and I
see no reason why the normal school
should not be one cf the most successful
and useful within the limits of the
state.’’

Hood’s Sarsaparilla is on the flood

reached by its own intrinsic, undoubted
merit. '

The Georgia Railroad Should be

The old reliable runs a very old, if
not a very reliable, and a filthy car, mis
calling it a lady’s car, on the fast train.
The high and mighty officials of the
road think it is good enough for Athens
people, who are not used to any of the
refinements of life, having always lived
on & branch line and been treated as
suited the convenience of the great men
in charge. Our people should .send a
humble petition to that great potentate
Maj. Green, who really don’t own the
earth. After mature deliberation ex.
tending through a period of perhaps
four months the great Major Verdant
will then refer the matter to the gen
eral freight agent, Col. Dorsey, who
will respectfully refer it to the general
passenger agent, Col. Dorsey, with a
recommendation that the auditors opin
ion be asked. The auditor after detail
ing the correct method of pinning
papers together, will return the petition
to be properly pinned, adding an apol
ogy tor any error that may have been
made in the rush of business. With the
auditors assent properly countersigned
by General Passenger Agent Dorsey
and General Freight Agent Dorsey the
petition will return to General Mana
ger Green in about two years and if the
old car has not dropped to pieces before
hand another old one may be ordered
repainted for the Athens branch.
