The following is the report of the ges- sions of Teachers’ Institute, for Thurs- day and Friday, of last week, by Prof, G. Dorsey Hunter, of State College : THURSDAY MORNING. The new year was ushered iu with a | good, live forenoon session. After Supt. Gramley had made a few announcements | Br. Hulley was called to occupy the first period, on the subject ‘Child Study ond Training.” He sald that if the farmer finds it worth while to study his soil, the rotation of crops, ele, it is sure ly worth while for the teacher to study | the child which he is called upon to | teach. After a ten minutes’ intermission and singing, the instruction began with Ur Parsons on the subject ‘Nature, Fune- tions and Varieties of Liberal Art.” | This profession of teaching, as well as others, reflects upon those engaged in it, | certain dwarfing tendencies and emo- tions. In the very atmosphere of the school room is noticed the teacher's authority, and this in the end produces tyranny of thought, which is one of the | worst types of tyranny. By constant use of authority we come to speak with au- thority, even without sufficient ground, The only escape from such tendencies is the constant study of their origin and growth. The five varieties of liberal art he gave painting, music as architecture, statuary, and literature. ture is the highest the form that is Dr. Parsons qualified this last statement Litera. form of art and it is universally accessible. by showing that music, painting statuary are beyond the reach Or of the masses, but the printing press has made { literature accessible to all classes The last period of the forenoon was filled by Prof He his talk on nature study and showed Surface. continued par. ticularly how time may be found for it. Claims that time be Prof. Surface may | found for this study outside of the school room, by training the children to observe and bring specimens to school THURSDAY AFTER NO Dr. Parsons was the first speaker keep the audi His ence'’s his talk subject was and was an excellent one for the directors of Centre county to hear Dr Parsons that any money spent in education of the young will bris KE good returns, for the scholar must maioiain correct habits of mind and body He | said, too, that directors should see w it the schools were That will and the state better, that training in these make the community for it account of the state that the young are educated When Dr the is on Parsons had concluded 71 Association, C. T. Fryberger, of Phil ipsburg, announced the officers of the | association for the coming year, and in- troduced D, F. Fortney, Eiq., of Belle | fonte, to speak to the audience. | dress was a strong reply to the attacks His ad. | made upon the public schools by educat.- ed men who are not familiar with the work or workings of these schools, Mr. | Fortney in his usual forcible style told | of what the schools have done, what they are doing and what they should continue ' to do, and closed with a strong plea for the teaching of patriotism, Dr. Hulley was the last speaker of the afternoon and his talk was upon ‘Riley and the Home Folks.” He did not at- tempt any of the life history of Riley, but spoke of his characteristics and illus- trated these by recitation of some of his | poems. So pleasing and happy was his | manner that the large audience soon quieted and thoroughly enjoyed the talk. FRIDAY MORNING. The auditing committee then made their report showing that the institute was self sustaining. The receipts were $781.17 and expenditures $700 66 ing a balance of $80.51.
