Ellie Western Zlnurnal nf iihuratinn The Wfestern journal of Education is a monthly magazine published under the auspices of the Normal College. It is concerned primarily with matters per- taining to the professional aspects of teaching. VVhile the publication was de- signed primarily to reiiect the views of the Normal College, its scope has been widened until it now represents the best thought on present clay topics. All articles are selected with respect to their value to teachers, and through the publication, the college seeks to extend its inliuence beyond the classroom and to prove of service to the teacher in active work. ' Together with Associate Professor H. Z. VVilber, who is managing editor, a committee, consisting of the President of the college, Professor E. A. Lyman, Professor B. L. D'Ooge, Professor R. C. Ford, and Professor N. A. Harvey, has immediate control of the publication. In addition to this local committee, there is a board of' advisory editors made up of representative educators of the Middle West. TWENTY-s-EVEN
