TEACHER'S INSTITUTE.
ers ought to hac more pay. Direc
tors should see that there are no over
crowded schools. There are two or
three 'districts in this county where
more money is drawn from the State
treasury than is paid their teachers.
We are willing to pay five million dol
lars to you but we want you to pay as
much as we do. I was glad to hear three
districts in this county had lengthened
the school term to nine months. Out
of the thirteen districts in this county
which did not lengthen the school
term, nine closed last year with mone)
in the treasury. O, it you can do any
thing when you go home for these
thousands of children, do it. Every
one of these districts is abundantly
able to give at least one month more.
The schools are for the children, not
to save money for the people. The
appropriation is for the support of the
schools and not to save from taxation.
look at tne state report and see
where you stand ( well up or down on
the list. Thirty-five counties are
ahead in the wacs c-f male teachers
and forty-two in the wages of females
i ry ana get it up to tne tenth or
twelfth. Did you ever think that pos
sibly seven years from now none of
these children will be in school ? I
cannot see' how the directors can close
the school houses with a thousand
dollars in the treasury.
The teacher's influence will go far
beyond the school district. If you
can go from here better you ought to
do more for the state than you lv.ve
done. The next hundred yeans ill
see a great change in our schools and
you will certainly receive the thanks
of the age and in the end the reward
that awaits every faithful servant.
Dr. White next spoke on Moral In
struction. There is nothing our teach
ers need more help on than moral
training. This moral training must
reach the will and it can be done in
three ways, by awakening right princi
pics, quickening the conscience and
developing clear moral ideas. The
rules of conduct are best presented in
the form of maxims or proverbs.
whicli have a power of the child's mind
abstract ideas never have, i he ma
terials to be used are stories, tables,
parables, literary gems, songs, pictures
and golden rules of conduct. The
method should be to awaken and enno
ble feeling, to lift it to principle, the
spirit should be from heart to heart.
Dr. L. B. Kline, of Catawissa, oc
cupied the next period in speaking to
the school directors. A school direc
tor should furnish everything essential
for the teachers and welfare of the pu
pils, exercise watchful care over the
teacher's work, and endeavor to pro
mote regular attendance. The best
way to secure good teachers is to pay
good wages.
Supt. Coughlin spoke ru:t. As I
listened to these addresses I have be
come quite enthusiastic and I have
come to the conclusion that education
al progress should bear the head. I
will address myself to the citizens this
afternoon. There is a responsibility
resting upon you. There is a tendency
to shift responsibility. Now you ought
to visit your school before another
month. Your presence inspires the
school. A school house should be as
good as ah average dwelling house.
Dollars and cents should never stand
between you and a good teacher. As
long as God gives me a chance to vot
I will vote for such men. (applause).
FRIDAY MORNING.
This morning the teachers all met
in the Opera House, to receive their
final instruction s. After singing Near
er My God to Thee, Rev. Mr. Fergus
on, offered prayer all joining in re
peating the Lord's Prayer.
Supt. Coughlin said too many chil
dren study the book and think knowl
edge is only found in memorizing
books. Distinguish between means
and ends in education. The child
should not be allowed to be careless
with his books. Tower to do and not
merely accumulate facts is the real
end of our work. I like the story of
the ''Evolution of Dodd" because it
shows us how Mr. Bright studied and
found out a way to lift a
boy out of moral degradation into
hope and a good life. Children are
living things and while we are doing
something tor them they are doing
something for themselves. Distinguish
clearly between recitation and prepar
ation. Don't make up by recitation
what the child should acquire byacttial
pi eparation. Do not censure trifling mis
takes too severely or you will not be
able to give a great mistake justice.
We should be very careful of our per
sonal habits, the child will most likely
shape his life lrom that of the teacher.
A good noble character is more valr
able than mere knowledfit; of books.
Exercise sell control. Do not use the
voice when the eye secures the result.
These talks may be suggestive and
nothing more, I hope however, that
they will help us to do more for child
hood and humanity.
Dr. White took for his last talk
Graded Synthetic Exercises. Facility
and not grammatical accuracy is the
end of language training. We should
teach correct speech in all our exer
cises. Our language work is too cha
otic, if I have done anything in the
last few years it has been in the se
oence. Language should be taught bv
observation, pictures, stories, letters
and dictation A text book on gram
mar should not be used until the arith
metic is neaily completed. Language
is a simple thing if we do not try to
make it complicated, we will find that
before ten years of age they will likely
write ueitcr man you Co. Correct all
papers before the class.
After a recitation bv Prof. Butts.
Hon. D. I. Waller. Tr.. SudL Public
Instruction, spoke a short time. There
is no State that has done as much for
public schools as Pennsylvania. In
the future there will be a scrutiny to
sec whether it is dorc well. I heard
Gov. Pat t son had made the remark
yesterday that if the people did not
make this appropriation an improve
ment to the schools there would not
oe another nice it so tar as he was
concerned. During the week vou
have been listening to the best instruc
tors that can be found anywhere. I
trust you will treasure up what has
been said.
Dr. White and Prof. Case eulogized
each other on their success in Iife,they
formerly often met m their work, but
this was the first they had met for
twenty seven years.
The reports of the various commit
tees were as follows :
O. II. Yetter, Samuel Purcell, W.
W. Heffner, Hannah Brcece and E.
K. Richardson were appointed exami
ners on Permanent certificates.
The Auditing committee reported
$854.69 as the receipts last year, and
$699.68 as the expenditures leaving a
balance of $155.01 in the treasury.
The committee on Resolutions of
fered the following :
REPORT OF COM. ON RESOLUTIONS.
Whereas we, the teachers of
Columbia county, in Institute assemb
led, wish to express our appreciation
of the labors of others in our behalf
and to express our opinion upon some
matters which we think are important,
therefore,
lltaulm d, that we extend our heart
felt thanks to our institute instructors
for their lucid scientific and impress
ive lessons in the fundamental princi
ples and best methods of teaching;
that we esteem it a great previlege to
be under their instruction , and that
in consequence of their labors wc go
forth with a strong determination to
strive to reach the high ideals which
they have so clearly set before us.
Also that we extend our thanks to
all others who have contributed to the
success of this Institute ; especially
would we eratefullv mention the
clergymen who have addressed us and
conducted our devotional exercises.
Also that we extend to our honor
able State Supt., Dr. Waller, our con
gratulations and gratitude for the
great work he is doing for the cause
of education in our commonwealth.
As we spy good bye to all these
friends who have aided us, we wish
God's richest blessings for them in
this future work.
2. Ruiolned, that we most heart
ily thank our worthy County Supt.
W. C. Johnston for the rich intellect
ual feast which he has with so much
labor and care prepared for us ; that
we congratulate him on the wonderful
success of the Institute, and extend
our best wishes lor the future.
3. Resolved, that we fully ap
preciate the troubles, cares, and vex
ations of the School Directors of our
county and heartily thank them for
what they have done to enable us to
more carefully and thoroughly instruct
their children and the children of
others.
4. Resolved, that it is the sense of
this Institute that the minimum term
in ungraded schools should be seven
months, and in graded schools, eight
months.
5. Resolved, that it is the sense of
this Institute that the diplomas of the
graduates of colleges, especially of
Pennsylvania, should be accepted by
the proper authorities in lieu of an
examination in all the branches, in
cluded in the course for which the re
spective diplomas were granted; but
that all persons, except Normal
graduates, upon entering the profess
ion of teaching, should be examined
in the history and theory of teaching.
6. Resolved, that those who hold
provisional certificates should at the end
of the fourth year of teaching at most
apply for either a professional, or
Normal certificate and if they
do not reach a standing of at
least a in each branch that they be
excluded from the list of teachers un
til they can obtain a professional
or Normal certificate.
7. Resolved, that it is the sense
of this Institute that the study of vo
cal music should be introduced into
our public schools, and we heartily
thank Prof. Cjsc for emphasizing this
and for his valuable instruction.

Supt. Johnston said of the 220
teachers in the county all were present
but three, two of whom were sick. He
desired to thank the directors and all
others for their attendance and atten
tion. J lev. Mr. Leverett pronounced the
benediction after prayer.
Thus closed the best Teacher's In
stitute ever held in Columbia county
and quoting from Dr. Waller "the
best that has been held in the State
this year."
