STEVENS POINT SCHOOL.

The Sixth State Normal School was opened September 17, 1894.

The following courses are provided: German, Latin and English-scientific courses of four years each, leading to the Diploma, which may become a life State certificate; an Elementary Course of two years and a Professional Course of one year, leading to the certificate, which may become a five years' State certificate; a One Year Common School Course. High school graduates are admitted to advanced standing in either course.

Special courses may be arranged by selection from the regular courses to fit the needs of individual teachers.

The building is thoroughly modern in style and adaptation to its use; is well equipped; has one of the largest and best fitted gymnasiums in the state, second only to that at the University. This is under the care of a trained specialist. A carefully selected library of about 4,500 volumes is in the care of a trained librarian, whose entire time is given to the students.

The total enrollment in all departments in January, 1897, was 490 students, coming from upwards of forty counties in the state.

Stevens Point is a quiet, orderly town, with paved streets and pleasant homes; is lighted by gas and electricity; has a good water supply, well distributed; a paid fire department and free mail delivery; is accessible by two railroads from all the central part of the state.
