In connection with the Normal School, a Model School was established, and in the catalogue of 1870 we find the following announcement: MODEL SCHOOL. The selection and arrangement of studies in this school are such as ape thought best adapted to develop, uniformly and naturally, the mental faculties, while at the same time, a knowledge of what is most practical and useful is acquired. The school embraces three departments: a Primary, an Intermediate and an Academic, which, if followed closely through their successive grades, offer an opportunity for the most economical, judicious, and profitable expenditure of time and application in study. Enough time and effort, it is believed, are usually spsnt by those attending our schools, in desultory and, consequently, almost profitless study, that, if wisely disposed and directed, would enable them to _ reach a respectable degree of attainment in education. It is recommended, therefore, that all who entei this school, pursue, regularly and fully, the course here laid down, which, though it may not be completed by them, will still result in their greatest improvement. Each department has three grades, which correspond to years in course of study. In 1867-1868, the catalogue announced the following officers of the 13oard as well as the respective instructors.
