lgiiatnrg nf the Nurtlpnvat Nrlrrazka Stair Nnrmal For a long time there had been a feeling throughout the western part of Nebraska that there was a need of better facilities in educating its teachers. Teachers situated in this part of the state were so far from educational institutions that few had an opportunity to prepare thoroughly for their profession. While the Junior Normals in this locality have done a great work in preparing teachers for their work, there was need of a school whose doors would be open during the entire year, where teachers could enter at any time and receive instruction in their chosen profession. In answer to the call of Western Nebraska for a higher institution of learning, during the month of January, l9l0, The State Board of Education made a tour of this part of the state, visiting the different towns with a view to locating a fourth State Normal School in Nebraska. Various offers of land and buildings were made by these towns to the Board of Education. Chadron, having purchased the grounds and building which formerly belonged to the Chadron Congrega- tional Academy, offered a tract of land consisting of 80 acres lying to the south of the city, and the Academy building for the location of a State Normal. To the great joy of the people of Chadron, their city was chosen as the home of the fourth Nebraska State Normal School. Witlmin a few minutes after the receipt of this glorious news it became known over town, and great was the ex- citement. Bells were rung, whistles blown, bonfires kindled, and there was general rejoicing. On June l5, I9I0, the State Board of Education again visited Chadron, and in company with educators from other parts of the state, and a crowd of citizens from the town, the driving of the stakes was witnessed. , .gc
