Through the German newspapers, the Germans of Chicago have become acquainted with the project of building a German-American normal school, Such a project needs no recommendation, as its advantages are evident. The best means to bring home to the young German-Americans, the advantage and peculiarities of their nationality is, without doubt, the guidance of teachers who have been trained in a German-American normal school. The German societies of Chicago are the best medium to promote this enterprise, the committee of the Chicago Turngemeinde invites all the German societies of Chicago to elect delegates to represent them at a meeting to be held Friday, July 2, 1875 in the hall of the Chicago Turngemeinde, in order to find means of realizing this great enterprise.
