Progress of Education At Home and Abroad
The Astronomic Society of Mexico offers a medal and diploma to any astronomer who discovers four comets. Uruguay trains teachers in the United States and Canada. Private benefactions to theological schools totaled 1,680,000 in 1912. New York's school lunch committee serves about 2,000 children daily in seven public schools. Over 600 summer schools are announced for 1913 per the Educational Directory of the U.S. Bureau of Education. Vocational work in high schools gains recognition with a plan allowing up to three of fifteen units in practical subjects. The University of Michigan accepts vocational studies. Germany and several U.S. states advocate compulsory domestic science for girls. Health almanacs issued by state boards of health distribute hygiene and sanitation guidance. Wisconsin high school Latin use fell 12 percent while German rose 10 percent. Oregon's short course at the agricultural college counts 1,445 farmers this year, up from six years ago. The Pitchburg Normal School opens a department for training manual arts teachers, seeking to supply upper elementary and high school educators.
