Excerpt from The Rural Teacher of Nebraska Sir: I am submitting herewith for publication as a bulletin of the Bureau of Education the report of a survey of the status of the rural teachers of Nebraska, made under the direction of the graduate school of education in the University of Nebraska. The survey was undertaken to ascertain the exact status of the rural teachers of the State in regard to their academic and professional preparation; their teaching experience and length of service; their sex, age, and nationality; and such contributory factors in teaching efficiency as salary, living conditions, and the like. The survey is, in fact, a study of the preparation and efficiency of rural-school teachers, which may be considered typical of similar studies which might be made in other States. The work was done with the cooperation of the graduate school of education in the University of Nebraska by a group of graduate students, working under the direction of Dr. G. W. A. Luckey, dean of this school. Much reliable material was procured on the education, experience, and general character of the teaching force of the State, together with first-hand knowledge of the conditions that contribute much to the home and school environment of the teachers. The collection and classification of the data are based upon scientific methods and should be of real value to the teaching profession of the country. Respectfully submitted.

Excerpt from Letters to Teachers and Other Papers of the Hour It is, doubtless, needless to say that the papers here collected are frankly journalistic, frankly propaganda. They were written during wartime, and while directed to the internal condition rather than the external affairs of our nation, they are influenced and inspired by the omnipresent fact of the international catastrophe. The problem with which they deal is the problem of reconstruction where it is most fundamental, and that is in the education of the American citizen; for the economic and social difficulties which today we face can find no lasting solution except it be in a state of mind, a national state of mind, which shall unite our citizenship in a unified purpose; and this it is the business of education to define and achieve. The issue is sufficiently important to demand journalism, to justify propaganda. Most of the papers here reprinted were originally addressed to the people of Nebraska, but they deal with problems which are local and national in the same sense, so that their particular context ought not to prevent their general consideration. The title series was first published in the Nebraska State Journal (Lincoln), April-July, 1918, under the heading, "Letters to Nebraska Teachers."

The main objective of this study was to procure reliable information on the education, experience, and general character of the rural teaching force of Nebraska, together with the first-hand knowledge of some of the conditions contributing to the home and school environment of these teachers. This knowledge was obtained by means of a questionnaire. It in no way represents theory or generalization, but is an array of facts on the rural teaching force of the State as given by the teachers themselves. The work was done with the cooperation of the graduate school of education in the University of Nebraska, working under the direction of Dr. G. W. A. Luckey, dean of this school. This bulletin is divided into eight chapters, as follows: (1) Movements in Nebraska's educational development; (2) Response, sex, age, and nationality; (3) Education; (4) Experience; (5) The boarding place; (6) Income; (7) Industrial conditions and suggestions of teachers; and (8) A recapitulation. An appendix contains a copy of the questionnaire that was sent to teachers on the status of the rural teacher in Nebraska. (Contains 40 tables, 9 figures, 4 plates, and 29 footnotes.)

Excerpt from Education in Nebraska The evidence of Governor Cuming's earnestness in his professed interest in education is seen in his later course. His name is found in the list of charter members of several of the early colleges and at the head of those which made the most earnest endeavors to become organized and established. Governor Cuming died March 23, 1858, at the age of 30. He was perhaps the ablest man who has ever been a citizen of Nebraska.b His judgment was good, his literary ability great, his foresight keen, and his interest in all that tended to develop the best side of life is proved by his acts. His name has a place even in a history of higher education, for, himself a college-bred man, he did all he could for its interests in the rude and undeveloped condi tions which prevailed in those days. The part of his message relating to education was referred to the committee on schools, a committee prolific in university charters at least; whether its educational wis dom equaled its zeal is not so certain. At this time all charters, whether for the location of a ferry, for the incorporation of a town, or for the establishment of a university, were secured by special acts, as there were as yet no general laws governing these subjects.
