directors of Beaver, Rev. D. P. Lowary

Mr. N. C. Martin presented thrsubject
of School Government. Hejvery clearly
set fprth the following leading thoughts :
Ist.'Teachers should govern themselves.
2d. Pupils should be considered and
treated as reasonable beings. 3d. There
should be no fluctuation in government.
4th. Rules should be simple and decided.
sth. They should be administered with
the strictest impartiality. 6tb. Kindness
should be associated with firmness in
their administration.
Ex-County Superintendent Whitham*
read an essay on School Organization.
Prof. Allen was called upon, and gave
a lectuie' on Common School Education.
He stated that there were a few heresies
he wished to dispose of at the early stage
of the Institute. He termed it a “new
departure” in education. He protested
against teaching a child elementa_wben
he first entered school. He discarded the
idea ofthe three things that had always
followed order, in “Reading, Riling and
Rithmetic,” and he would add the fourth
Rascality. He referred to the fact that as
a people we bad wandered into barren
desserts; we had permitted ourselves to
let our children leave their schools at six
teen years 'qf age ; that on ly four per
cent, of our scholars get into higher in
stitutions. His leading thought was that
education is not practical enough. He
the idea of being confined to the
text book; that a knowledge of language
and general should engage the
attention ; we keep our toys 100 long at
Arithmetic and Crammer ; we spend
years when a few months are sufficient.
There should be more time spent in im
parting general information—that which
may be used in after life. The boy in the
district school who receives a telegram,
should know fully the process by which
it is sent. He should understand the na
ture' of the food he eats. He spoke of
the vast amount of time spent uselessly
on the subject of Mental Arithmetic, and
gave a few specimens of intricate prob
lems that have no immediate bearing ou
the concerns of life. Everything should
be made attractive as well as prac
tical connected with the school, and thus
that which had been a barren waste,
would become an attractive field of
knowledge.
A little girl sang two very beautiful
songs.; ;
- SECOND DAY.
The opening exercises were conducted
by Rev. Lowary calling upon Rev. Pat
terson, who led in prayer. Prof. Allen
resumed the subject of School Economy
saying that if you cannot teach Arithme
tic without a book, you cannot teach it
with it. Teach the pupil to add, sub
stract, multiply and divide accurately and
rapidly; build upon what the boys al
ready know, and do not go to cramming
it down them. They should be let alone,
and they will learn infinitely faster.
Pupils should be taught to add orally and
mentally; they should not be allowed to
count at iheir seals; they could not add
to any advantage by constantly repeating,
they would be just as liable to be wrong
the second or third time as the first.
The subject of Reading was next con
sidered. He would not use §ny book
higher than the Third Reader. Teaching
a class just commencing, be would select
words with which to associate ideas ; al
luded to the word method.
How it could be used practically.
Prof. Messimer, Miss Bunn, Prof. S. H.
Piersol, Revs. Lowary and R. T. Taylor
followed in rather an animated discus
sion of the subject, 'some favoring the
plan of teaching by the word method,
claiming that by the association of ideas
with words that the progress of the pupil
would be more rapid, and the best re
sults obtained. Others insisted on the al
phabet method.
Prof. Allen gave a discourse on Eng
lish Grammer. He deprecated the use of
Grammars in our schools, and if he could
would throw them out. He would first
teach Language by using conversation as
a means of acquiring a correct use of
Language ; talk to the pupils, and they
should converse freely with the teacher ;
these conversational lessons should be
kept up for quite a time. 2d. He would
gather up the False Syntax of the school
room and play ground, correcting it, and
have the pupils give the reasons. 3d. The
requests of the school-room should be
done iu writing. Let email slips of paper
be placed on the teacher’s table, and the
request of the pupil should be written
and handed to the teacher. Each day's
requests should be corrected at night,
and returned to the pupils next day, thus
teaching pupils to use correct language.
After some excellent music Prof. Allen
opened the afternoon session by resum
ing the subject of School Economy. The
teacher must have a definite plan, and so
apply the methods of instruction that
the pupil may grow up harmoniously,
■well developed, symmetrical, having a
thorough knowledge of-Language, Math
ematics and Science, so as not to be one

object of study. lat. Dlsciplihe, that the
mind should he brought down to a given
point, and concentrated on one thing.
Success in any enterprise is to seize all
our forces and fix them on a given point.
2d. Information. . 3d. To communicate ;
referred to requisites for study; health,
good air and comfortable Seats; time;
comparative silence, or regulated noise.
The subject of Geography was again
resumed. . ■ , t-
A general discussion on Spelling fol
lowed, in'which Profs. S. H. Piersol, Jas.
Whitham, Dr. R. T. Taylor and Mrs. Mar
quis participated.
Prof, Allen was called upon to give his
method. Said he would not pronounce a
word unless he knew the meaning; dis
carded the use of the Speller, and had pu
pils write the names of articles of cloth-,
ing, objects in the school room, articles of
food found on the dinner table. This ar
rangement could be multiplied indefinite
ly always classifying the words.
The Institute then proceeded by ballot
to elect committee on permanent certifi
cates : Maggie Hunter, Jas. Whitham, 8.
A. Platt and J. G. Hillman were elected.
Prof. H. C. Missimer in the evening
gave a lecture, urging reformation in our
educational systems.
Miss Mary Chambers read an essay on
the Qbjects of Recitation, which revealed
some excellent thoughts on the subjects.
J. P. Todd delivered an address on the
Teacher’s Preparation.
Rfev. R. T. Taylor spoke at some length
on the Teachers’ Work. First be thought
that while we should not ignore the Sci
ences, we should not discard Mathemat
ics. The latter would be preferable for
the development of the mental faculties.
The teacher should be a good man, sin
cere, earnest, patient, energetic, faithful
and deserving.' His influence is next to.
that of the parent over the children. The
teacher should be ambitious, and strive to
excel in his profession.
THIRD DAY.
Institute convened at 9 o’clock, opened
with devotional exercises, conducted by
Rev. lyiowary.
On motion a committee was appointed
to draft resolutions expressive of the
sense of the Institute. J. P. Todd, Miss
Nannie Rayle and Prof. Jas. Whitham
were appointed.
Teachers were called upon to give a
description of their schools, to ascertain
if the instruction given to the Institute
could be adapted to the wants of their re
spective schools.
Prof, Whitham described his classes in
Arithmetic. Prof, then proceeded
to show how he would conduct recita
tions in those classes. He would teach to
intensify thought, cause the pupils to
reason ; he would have but two classes in
Arithmetic, one in the “how or fact pe
riod,” the other in the “why or philo
sophical period.”
Prof. J.G. Hillman described his class
in Reading. Prof. Allen gave some very
valuable hints on the subject. He refer
ed to elocutionists. He imitated their af
fected manner. He insisted on teaching
the subject so that pupils may read nat
uraUy.
Grammar. Miss Donehoo being caMed
upon described her class in English
Grammar. Prof. Allen gave bis method
of teaching the subject. In addition to
written requests he would adopt story
telling. He would repeat a story and
have the pupils write It. Then narra
tion. Ist, actual; 2d, imaginary, also de
scription ; such as places, home, persons,
etc ; all exercises written on paper by the
pupil, corrected by the teacher and re
turned. The object being to teach the
correct use of language.

“SMOKE” AND “RUTS,’
BY REV. d. BENSON HAMILTON,
OF BOSTON, MASS.
Churches or Lecture Committees desiring a
pleasing and instinctive entertainment, can secure
the services of Mr. Hamilton upon reasonable
terms. He is now making arrangements for a lec
ture tour through the West early in the fall. His
lectures have been received with marked success
in New England, as a few selected notices wil
show:
WHAT THEY SAY OP “SMOKE.”
It was a keen and humorous exposure of the
“Sham and Show” of life. His description of the
peculiarities of some Smoky men elicited bursts of
laughter and applause. He was funny and instruc
tive both.— Boston Transcript.
It was a humorous lecture illustrated by an
abundance of witty and satirical anecdotes, exhib
iting the very superior descriptive powers of the
speaker, and showed in welldednod style the value
of the real and true.— Abington Standard.
The lecture was received with laughter and ap
plause, as it revealed clouds of “Smoke” where
most people seldom look for fire.— SomertitU
Journal.
The feast of reason and flow of soul produced
such laughter and applause that it is confidently
believed that certain dyspeptics In the audience
were permanently cured. Fast young men. ex
tremely fashionable young ladies* old logy preach
ers, intriguing politicians, spread eaele orators and
various Other personages would best avoid bearing
this lecture if they are afraid of sensible criticism.
