Excerpt from The Nineteen-Eleven Wyo: Being the Year Book of the Junior Classes of the State University of Wyoming; Published in the Spring of 1910

There are some signs that the educational world is preparing ln some degree to meet these new demands, though not in the inde pendent, clear-sighted manner that is desirable. Instead of revolution and complete reorganization of our school course to meet the new demands and to get free from the worthless accumulations of grafting and stuffing; we are to have for the most part a retention of the old with industrial and commercial education grafted on it. This move ment is seen everywhere in the establishment of commercial courses, in the introduction of manual training, in the building of agricultural and trade schools, and in some isolated cases even the sloughing off of some of the useless accretions of a century and a half of experi mentation, additions, reforms, and blunders. It is to be hoped as the work of guiding the destinies of our public schools passes into the hands of better educated and more thoughtful men and women who understand modern life and conditions, that the problems-which con front and threaten modern education will be met earnestly and fear lessly, and as time passes with less regard for tradition and the prejudices of the past.
