HE CAUGHT THE TEAUHEK3,
Dr. J. P. Welsh Takes Their Part-. A Vote
Of Thanks Tendered.
The Harrisburg Patriot of Friday
lan contained the following concern
ing our distinguished townsman, Dr.
J. P. Welsh :
The most popular speaker at yester
day's sessions of the Dauphin county
Teachers' Institute, as far as the
teachers were concerned, was Dr. J.
P, Welsh, principal of the State Nor.
mal School at Bloomsburg. Dr.
Welsh, plain-spoken if anything, made
an address in the afternoon on " The
Tart in Education Which the Teacher
Does Not Have." He was down on
the program to speak on " The
Teacher's; Part in Education." In
addressing the Institute he said the
subject assigned did not suit him.
When he gave it to Superintendent
McNeal to be placed upon the pro
gram he had not given it the thought
it deserved. "Instead of speaking
upon what the teacher does in edu
cation," said he, " I wish to talk on
that part the teacher does not have.
I wish to consider those elements
which have to do with the first six
years of a child's life or that period
preceeding the time when it is handed
over to the school teacher." He re
ferred to the child as a bundle of
possibilities.
On the training it receives prior
to being placed in school depends a
great deal its future. He alluded
somewhat bitterly to the failure of
fathers and mothers to give the pro
per early training to children and with
no little sarcasm said the primary
school teacher was expected to make
good boys and girls of them. " No
doubt," the speaker said, 'one of
these children can send its mother to
bed with the headache every night.
What then," he asked, " can a teacher
be expected to do with twenty-five or
thiity of them ? Parents teach their
children most everything excepting
how to be good fathers and mothers."
He pointed to the great difficulty in
the matter as being a lack of know
ledge on the Dart of the oarents s
their utter incompetency to properly
tram. Dr. Welsh told a story of a
visit to a doctor, an old college class
mate, uuring nis vacation, lie w:.s
anxious mat tne doctor accompany
him fishing. The doctor was unable
to go, however, because of his having
10 visit a patient a ten-months old
baby suffering frow dyspepsia.
" What I" said Dr. Welsh, " Is
that baby's stomach ruined already ? '
mats about it, was the reply,
Its parents have been feedine it
Duckwheat cakes and sausage.
When the doctor returned, having
prescnoed a diet of milk on his first
visit, he told the speaker the young
ster was sitting at the table eating his
oucKwneat cakes and sausaee. Such
liet for a baby struck the teachers as
being extremely ludicrous and there
was considerable laughter.
Dr. Welsh said there was great
need of moral training on the part of
parents. He said the teacher re
ceived but little assistance in the
average home and yet parents insisted
on complaining that their bovs ar.d
girls were not what they ought to be.
Ooou citizenship, he said. " was
the object of the State in establishing
public schools and," he added " the
teachers ought to have the co-operation
of every parent in attaining this
object. This co operation was too
frequently absent, however." At the
conclusion of his address Professor L.
Gause, an old city teacher, arose
and moved a vote of thanks to Dr.
Welsh for takine the part of teachers
and for his able address. Superinten
dent Mr. McGinnes, of the Steelton
Schools who was presiding, put the
vote and heard in response a heartv
chorus 01 ayes.

93 says of the concert ni-'en by Elwell's
Orchestra on May 2, '05.
" One of the largest and most select
audiences that ever attended the
Opera House was assembled there
Tuesday evening to attend the Or
chestral Concert. It was one of the
finest musical treats our people ever
had an opportunity of listening to,
and convinced those piesent that we
have an orchestra of which we can
feel justly proud. Chas. P. Elwell,
the leader is to be congratulated upon
the good success of his concert.
Opeia House, Bloomsburg Nov. 28,
1894.
When base bailers quit playing and
go to calling each other traitors over
the honors and the spoils it is time to
change the game to foot ball or some
thing mild and gentle like. We quote
the recent impressive but demoraliz-
ing words of the National League:
41 To-day the future of base ball is
confronted by treachery within the
lines." In consequence of this im
portant discovery the so-called trai
tors, Buckinburger, Barnie and Peffer,
were recently recommended for ex
pulsion, they having only until De
cember id to set things ncht. uut a
good base-ball player can accomplish
a great deal between this and Decem

The Columbian of May 5th '93
says of the concert given by Elwell's
Orchestra on May 2 '93 j
"The members of the Orchestra
have every reason to feel well satisfied
with themselves. Their concert on
Tuesday night was a great success in
every respect. The program was per
formed in a most pleasing manner,
and the audience which was one of
the largest that has gathered in the
Opera House for some time, as well
as one of the most select, was enthusi
astic in its appreciation. The Orches
tra is a credit to the town and well
merit the encouragement they have
received."
