Everywhere the movement is for more normals, a score of states have from three to fif teen. California has eight; Washing ton has three; even Idaho has two. Consider: Only five states have a smaller equipment for normal schools than Oregon would, were all three of Its schools running; and. eighty per cent of the applicants for teachers' certificates In Oregon last year had received no training above the eighth grade. Cannot Oregon, like other states, pro vide that her common schools shall have competent, efficient teachers?
