Teachers* Institute Proceedings.
The Thirty-seventh annual Cameron County,
Institute was called to order promptly at 1:30 by
county Superintendent Miss Collins. After the
devotional exercises conducted by Rev. Metzler,
the roll was called to which every teacher of the
County responded. Prof. McQinnis Rave as the
first talk of the Institute, Children's Rights
There is a diamond ol'immortality in every child
is p;rhaps the most characteristic remark of the
talk. Prof. McGinnis argued that pupils have
rights from directors, namely, comfortable build
ings,competent teachers of character,and a broad
and extensive course of study; from the teacher
the pupils have the rights of careful study of the
individual natures; this confidence presupposing
each child to be honest and possessing marked
ability, from the parents they have the rights of
perfect confidence and being treated courteously
and of a home trailing that leads them to show
utmost respect for others. Our duties as teachers
and parents, he says, are the results of childrens
rights.
.Miss Weller introduced the subject of drawing
by giving reasons why it should be taught.
Drawing is one of the three best studies of the
school curriculum for cultivating perception; it
interests children as well as bringing out the
tlner sentiments. The rudiments of drawing was
discussed, also the manner and method of teach
ing it in primary grades.
The Committee on Course of Reading reported
and recommended Dr.ShalTer's book—"Thinking
and Learning lo Think," also Wolfson's Ancient
History.
The Nature Lovers Spirit could be discussed by
no one better than Prof. Schniucker for who
could be more in earnest in his work. The spirit
of nature work he told us, is to teach children to
be observing and to have sympathy for the lower
forms of life, it cultivates a love for all that is
good, noble, and true. After thU introducing his
work on nature study he gave a most interesting
discussion of the sun and sun spots, advising that
teachers and pupils look for the sun spot which
will be visible in two weeks. !-
Tuesday Oct. 20. Devotional exercises were
read by Rev. Robertson. After singing by insti
tute, Miss Weller continued her talk on draw
ing. She showed how objects vary in magnitude
according to the distance, illustrating by draw
ings which give the facts of sire and structure of
object. To correct card containing square, circle
and oblong will make a multitude of objects. As
soon as pupils are far (enough advanced to use
books this concreate method should beput aside
and abstract method taken up.
Intermission and music.
Prof. Green was heartily welcomed by the In
stitute. His subject, Masterpieces of Literature,
was mos ably developed. He divides books into
two classss, transitory and permanent. A master
piece, as defined bv Prof. Green, is a literary pro
duction that betters the brain, helps the heart,-
lifts the life. I Masterpiecesjare the delight of man
kind, not the sensation. We should read some
thing besides late novels and magazines, we
should read books that make us think this is
God's world. Book intelligence is not measured
by the number of books read, it is better to read
a few books and read them well then there will
be fewer "Reading Kangaroos" in the world. In
order to throiiouglily understand masterpieces
the reader must get at the heart of them and al
low the imagination which is the centre and seat
of the intellectual world full play.
TUESDAY, P. M.
Geometrical figures was the part of drawing
under discussion. The different faces and their
proportions were illustrated. Miss Weller de
veloped the rectangle and showed how various
architectural forms are derived from it.
In his remarks upon Points from a Superinten
dent's Note Book, Prof McQinnis stated that in
visiting a school she following poins were crti
cised: Surroundings, sanitary conditions, en
rollment, appliances, and vivify the mental pic
ture children have of objects they should draw
them, being guided by the teacher's instruction.
In the talk Primary Pupils Profitably Kmployed.
Mr. McQinnis speaks of the employments at
seats. The busyl work given children should
have a deeper meaning other than keeping pupils
busy. As examples of practical busy work he
suggests work in Langu age such as copy
ing words, phrase, sentences; building
words, sentences, etc., and composing simple
letters. In number work, cards may be obtained
from which teacher can lead the pupils to seethe
true meaning of numbers. Number work is not
mechanical. Telling a child that 2 plus 2 equal 4
then asking him to learn it is not teaching num
ber. Form work aflords much variety in busy
work. Splints and a form manner and voice of
the teacher, interest, awakened, and discipline.
He emphasized the facts that the teacher should
possess a strong personality and that she should
be kindly yet positive and firm.
The Family of Spinners about which Dr. Sch
mucker talked was the spiders. The spider is
the most sagacious of insects and upon each
other. The spiders legs are terminated by strong
claws, and their length serves to keep out in
truders. Its web is a snare for other insects.
When an insect gets into the web the spider al
lows it to entangle itself as much as possible then
darts out, seizes the insect and drags it off into
his house. Nature seems to have fitted the spider
for such a life. It's net to entangle the enemy is
what it endeavors to make as'complete as nos
sible,
Perfect silence prevailed when Prof. Green
arose to continue his instruction in Literature.
His topic was John Ruskin, or the mountain
minded man, as named by Prof. Green. He gave
only that part of his biography as helps to under
stand his writing!, Ruskin's environment had
much to do with his success in life. He depicted
Ruskin as touching on all the movements of the
19th century yet one who had very little, if any
sympathy with modern improvements. To Ruskin
is due the beginnings of the University exten
sion movement. His inward nature was so high
ly cultivated that he could see beauty in all
things, nis aim in life was to help men to happi
ness and virtue.
WJSDNK9DAY, A. M.
The devotional exercises were conducted by
Rev. Knox and after singing two selections. Miss
Weller took up the subject of drawing. Per
spective drawing at this period of development
gives piace to the relation of geometric figures to
figures disimilar to them. Application of geome
tric forms should be taught. As uses of this par-

Miss Van Fleet, Canton, Pa.; Miss Jen
nie Norris, Kane.

date—Mr. Floyd—and he pnt up to
slaughter. The scheme will develop in
the near future

One Hundred and Eight Years Old.
The writer was shown two relics the
other day that deserve mention. One
was a scroll plane and the other a mi
tre saw, the finest we ever saw. These
tools are the property of Mr. Rhodes
the expert pattern maker for Emporium
Machine Co., and were purchased by
his father in 1795, yet they do not show
any considerable age or wear.
Outrageous Work.
Yonng America cut a wide last
Saturday night and made Rome howl
until late Sunday morning, despite the
fact that two policemen were chasing
several gangs of young men. The de
struction of property, with a devlish
spirit seemed to run rampant. It is a
custom to celebrate Hallowe'en and
perpetrate innocent mischief, but this
year depredations were many, causing
great expense to many citizsns. No
doubt the perpetrators will bo called to
the Captain's oflice for settlement.
The Burglar.
A charming, instructive, laughable
play is "The Burglar," to be seen Fri- I
day, Nov. 6th, at the Opera House. It
aroused and held Madison Square The
ater audiences in New York for part of
a season, and has since toured the
country with gratifying success. Even
the blase theater-goer, as well as the
hardened stoic, are susceptible to their
emotions as they see a desperate bur
glar softened by a child pleading, and
the little ones tiuy fingers straying
among their heart strings finds and
touches a hidden, but tender chord,
and makes it thrill to the sweet music
of humanity. Usual prices.

F. P. Strayey and family moved into
their new and handsome residence, at
junction of Fourth street and Allegany
avenue, last Saturday. It is a comfort
able home and reflects credit on the
builder, Mr. Cramer. The interior is
certainly a model of neatness and com
pleteness with the latest modern con
veniences. Good taste is manifested
throughout.
A famous play by a famous author,
"The Burglar," by August Thomas al
so author of "Alabama," will shortly
be seen here. This play particularly
appeals to the ladies and children, as
one of the principal roles is enacted by
a child not yet seven years of age, and
the costuming of the ladies is very rich
and appropriate. A pretty love story
is entwind in the plot of"The Burglar"
and the sensational developemnts,
though mild, aro absorbingly interest
ing. Usual prices.
The third act of the play is the
dramatization of Mrs. Francis Hodeson
Burnett's story of "Editha's Burglar,"
which was in vogue about the same
time with "Little Lord Fauntelroy,"
and has for its centre of interest a pre
cocious and quaint little girl, as the
other has a precocious and quaint little
boy. The play is full of dramatic sit
uations, with enough humourous by
play to relieve the tension, and it grows
in interest from start to finish, although
it is simple in its plot and in its busi
ness. Usual prices.
Dr. Oood Here.
Dr. H. W. Good and family will ar
