BRADFORD COUNTY TEACHERS'
ASSOCIATION. Va•=c,
The Bradford:County Teachers' Asso
ciation met in the Methodist Church, Uls
teris February 13,1880. Called to order
•by- the President, I. S. Crawford, at 10:35
n.
In absence of the Secretary, H. C.
Green Was appointed pro. tern.
The minutes of the last meeting were
read and approved.
The following repot& the Committee
on Resolutions was r and accepted :
Ist. Respired, That the teachers Of
our common schools should have thi3 pow
er to expel from their 5,..h0015, scholars
whose, conduct is detrimental to the har
mony Of the school. f
2nd. Resolved, That the present prac
tice of changing teachers, is injurious to
the progress of the common schools.
'3d. Resolved, That our teachers should
be paid according to the grade of their
certificate, and to their success in teach-
4th, Resol=ed, That public schools
shotild be governed by moral suasion
Resolved, That in many of the
townships of Bradford County, the
Iletirds:of Directors are cripPled in their
t &its to pro Mote the efficiency of the:
sebotilsby the fact that their predecessors
have erected too many, school-houses and
Fchool-districts, and that they should
hereafter pursde the
,policy of consolidat
ing, school-districts as fat as possible, tak
ing hit granted that most parents would
feel better accommodated with a good
school a mile and a half away, than with
a poor or indifferent school at their doors.
Professor W. 11. Benedict moved the
' adoption of the fourth resolution. He
thinks that, the school should be govern
ed by kindness if possible, but that the
teacher must he master, also that in most
sebools parents throw obstacles in the way
of discipline by not supporting the
"teacher. 1
The repution„was .opposed, by Mr. C.
P. Garris4tu ; he algo thinks that young
ladies should be: tiubjected to the same
'rules and punishmets as young gentle-
EEO
Mr. Hauling thinks the present power
of teachers-to suspend scholars sufficient.
Mr. Kitmey takes a broader view, awl
thinks harsh means not conducive to a
high order of obedience. •
Mr: Holcomb thinks it the duty of
teachers to govern schools by kindness if
pos,sible, but if not, he should use harsh
er methods.
Mr. Eliott is opposed to the resolution,
a:gi thinks moral suasion 'is helped by
knowledge that the whip may be used.
- Mr. Eugene Thompson thinks moral
suasion should be the rule, but the teach
er must reserve the right to use excep-
MEM
Mr. Plummer thinks 'if all would use
the right method of home instruction,
"moral suasion might. be adopted in the
helioi)ls)'
The re, , olution was unanirusly lost.
;Music by the choir. AdjourOctl to meet
at I:30 p. M.
El=
Afternoon session ot•garrized at 1:4.
Music by the choir. It was moved that
the second' resolution be adopted.
DiscusSion Opened by .Ir. Harding,
who says that:teachers have different
Methods, and one method is not put in
ptliettee in less than one term'.
.11r. Hoston thought that 'teachers
should not be employed for long terms,
as would be legs strife among teach
ers. Adtipted.
The acloptiOn of the fifth resolution
c• - • NV as' moved. A Director said that he had
had !-Orl'lc experience in forming new dis
tri,',ts, dud Was in favor oC consolidation
wlivre practicable.
- Mr. Plummer was anxious to have the
qucstton discussed, as he was in favor of
go . od strong schools,' even. if tl)ey
ale farther apart.
311. Campbell thought that the schools
should be arranged for the convenience of
the pupils, and rait for the lbeeetit of the
fav,,red few.
Mr. Benedict thinks the schools should
1;e con,olidated as far as possible.
Mr. Eliott said that many schools have
a :.uilicientrinpnber already for separate
schools. althoti a ,h they are. near enough
to each other, fur consolidation.
Mr. Huston favored the resolution.
Mr. Burgan would have schools consol
idated and I.oaded as two teachers, in a
school can do better Work than onel
Mr. Brown objects to the consoltdatiori
of three schools into two, ag IL would
throw one-third of the teachers out of
employment
'Mr. E. F. Thompson. said that the best
eholars - he ever had were those who
came the farthest to school.
Mr. Campbell thought that the Direc
tors weir the proper judges, and that
none could locatethe.schools, unlesti they
Were acquainted with the localities in
which they were to be, located.
After further remarks by Mr. Innis, SM
periutemlent ityart and others, the rem.-
hit Mu was adopted.
Declamation by*red Mothers. Lesson
in the Metric System by Mr. Bovingdon.
Miss itillette!concifictefl a recitation in
Geography, having her class before her.
Mr. Quiulan urged the teachers to take
hold of the Metric System and teach it' in
their sehOols. lie also explained it briefly.
Mr. llyan commended the 'work in Ge
ography, anti especially the combining of
History with Geography.
linrgan urged that the pupils be
taught the meaning of that which they
learn in books.
Mr. Qumlin would require
,pupils to
memorize certain parts of the text hooks,
and explain them as far .1S possible.
Music. Recess of live minutes.
Mr. Benedict placed ten words on the
board and called for volunteers to go and
• place diacritical and accent marks in their
proper places. 'Mr. Bovingdon respond
ed. Several objections were made to his
way of marlting several of the words.
Threc were decided to be wrong.
I Mr. G. L. Olack next gave a lesson in
percentage. He would • have pupils un-.
.dcrstand deafly . the .different elements of
Percentage, then apply them to Profit and
Loss, Conimission, etc. Considerable dis
mission followed. •
Professor Ryan said he would like to
hear the opinion of tl4 teachers in regard
to formulas ; said he thought they should
not be giren till - the scholar thoroughly
understood tale principles.
Mr. CraivfOrd thinks formulas an abom
ination:
E. F. Thompson thinks scholars should
be able to state'exampl9s bylormulati.
Mr.. Quinlan says, first an 'ezplanation,
Mei a rule or formula to clinch it.
,Mr. Eugene fluitnpson thinks a formu
la is the came as'a map in Geography, a
picture to the eye.
- Plummer says - we must teaoh what
will be of most practical use to the pppil.
Mr. Ityaa says Mental ..%rithmetie dO"
flclpnt in the schools, and those who work
by formulas do pot have the mental' drill
they should have.
A motion wall; made that, since many
of the teachers will have to leave early in
the morning, we waive the usual
custom Ffnd proceed to select place of

sen.

SATCTiiDgIi MORNIING.
AsSiiciation called to order at 010. De;

Mr. Wiip moved the adoption of the
• following :
ilemotred, That the President appoint a
committee of three, to report at the next
meeting of the Association, 'the advisabil ,
ity and practicability of establishing an
Educational Ileadquarteis at the-,county
seat, at which place may be kept ! on ex
hibition the work ofi the scholars of the
various schools of the county.
He discussed theresolution in the af
/
firmative.
• Mr. Quinlan says it commends itself to
him, especially the idea of having educa
tional reading. He thiliks what was ex
hibited at the County Pair might, in some
degree, be shown dUring the year. Reso
lution adopted. -
Mr. Ryan offered the following":
Rexoleed, That the President appoint a
committee of five to have charge of i an ed
ucational exhibit at our County Fair ;
suzli committee to appoint a 'suitable
committee in each district to arrange the
exhibit for the district.
Mr. Plummer thinks, since we have at
tempted to make an exhibit, -there is no
better way to have a good one than by
having a committee appointed..
Mr. Quinlan thinks it ; each township
were-to have a
. place Assigned to it, each
woald I/3 stimulated to do better.
Mr. Ebott thinks it too much to leave
the'work to two* three, and is in favOr
of the motion.
Mr. McKee says he does not see the
use of such motion, and thinks it notice
through the papers might to be sufficient.
Mr. Tanner says that not half the
teachers will notice a request in 'the -pa
pers.
Mr. Durand thinks it too much to ask
the Superintendent to collect all the mat
ter for the exhibit, and that. a committee
should be appointed.
Motion was carried and the following
conimittee appointed : Professors Ryan,
E. E. Quinlan, W. 11. Benedict, J. T.
McCollom and W. II: Evans.
Professor 'Ryan took a few minutes to
urge the teachers,to hold term examina
tions, and to distribute blanks to be sent
to the various boards of didtors. • •
Professor Quinlan then gave :4 lesson in
Grammar, dwelling on tiansitive and in
transitive verbs and voice, also the sub
jedt of case. He illustrated by numerous
examples. A discussion followed and a
number of questions were asied and an
swered.
Professor llnedict gave a lesson in or
that`py, which was followed ilay some dii
eussion.
Mr. Quinlan made some remarks in re
gird to the SaloOl Journal urging
teachers to assist the editors, by sending
to them anything that will be of interest
t r its readers. Mr. Burgan offered the
resignation of )iss Ballard, one , of the
committee of editors to the ite p ran.'
Benedict 4oke on the same subject,
and thought as the Rep übl /ea only used
the matter from the Journal, that the ed
itors should be diSmissed, and offered a
motion to that edect. Mr. Burgan spoke
on the motion, and said the editors -had
not supplid any matter "since the Journal
had been issued, and thbught it hardly
fair to the editing committee:to have
their names at the head of the column
when they do not furnish the matter.
Mr. Benedict's motion was amended so
as to intstruct the President to re-appoint
an editing ibmmittee when the editors of
the Republican should desire it,, and the
motion as amended Was passed.
following vote of thanks was of
fered :
• Roolred, That we extend our thanks
to the people of. Ulster for their cordial
hospitality, to the trustees of the Church
for its use ; to those who have furnished
us with music, and to all who have assist
ed in any way to make the occasion pleas
ant and profitable.
The committee to consider changing
the time of the next session, reported that
only the annual meeting in November is
fixed, and suggested that the people from
Herrick be left to,decide the time of next
meeting. The third Friday in June is
the time decided upon. '
, The death of Professol F. A. Allen, of
Mansfield. was announced, and Messrs.
E. T. Burgan, E. E. Quinlan, and kiss
i Ea: Spalding, were appointed a commit-.
