Tiik object of this School is exclusively to train Teachers for the Common Schools of  this State.
Until the permanent building for the purpose can be completed, the School will occupy, as temporary
quarters, what is known as the " Stearns House:" this has been entirely remodeled and refitted, and
will afford sufficient accommodations for the School at present. The site, with its ample grounds, is
one of the finest in the country. It is a high river bluff, commanding-a wide prospect, and is just
far enough away from the, business portion of St. Cloud to be free from its noise and dust, and to
have   all  the   advantages   that  proximity   can   give   it.
