Some Oregonians will recall my
interest in rural scaool teaching.
When the Oregon Norman School
was about to be reopened—after be
ing discontinued for several years—
I projected a plan for making it dis
tinctively a training school for rural
teachers- The reason was that the
rural schools had been shamefully
neglected; that most of them were
obliged to put up with teachers who
were half trained, youthful girls,
mostly from city high schools, who
looked upon a country school as a
mere stepping stone toward further
training and ultimately—unless they
married—city employment The in
fluence of such teachers could not
strengthen and enrich farm life, as
rural teaching ought to do; rather it
tolled farm boys and girls away from
the farms to the towns.
My plan, possibly too drastic, was

Oregon Norman School (and, I have
been assured, in reorganising the
later schools at Ashland • and La
Grande) considerable emphasis was
placed upon training for rural school
teaching- Whether or not a distinct

has emerged in Oregon, I do not
know, but such a result ought to be
well on the way by this time. The
farmers of Oregon are entitled to the ,
boon they w¿uld have in a thousand
well trained men and women devoted
to the professional service of the
farming communities as permanent
teachers of their boys and girls—Just
as the people of the cities have an
other 1,000 or more Who are giving
successful service in their schools.
Now, as I veiw the plan outlined
in your bill, it ignores entirely the
rural school interest, and by concen
trating teacher training in a teacher’s
college makes it virtually certain that
the rural schools will be lost sight of
by students in their strange for a

time may come when rural teachers
will have to show credentials which
include a college degree, but it is not

will take vocationally selected boy» ’
