THIRD DAY OF THE
COUNTY INSTITUTE
Many New Ideas Advanced for tbe Bene
fit of Teachers.
PAPERS READ IN THE MORNING
Were Heard br tbe Teacher, of tbe
Intermediate and Primary Depart.
mealtThe Discussion on Them.
Superintendent Coughlist, Dr. Pratt
aad Dr. Ilolbrook lastraotsrs ia the
AlternoofDitectors Meet Today.
Professor Redway, Superintendent
Coughlin. Dr. Pratt and Dr. Holbrook
occupied the greater part of the time
at yesterday's sessions of the county
teachers Institute in Young Men's
Christian Association hall and gave
the instructors food for thought by the
ideas they advanced regarding the best
methods of Imparting knowledge to the
young; entrusted to their care.
The morning session opened with the
singing of "Ever be Happy and Gay"
which was followed by a talk on sing
ing by Professor Cogswell. As on the
preceding morning a division of the
teachers was made and those who And
their field of usefulness; In the grumniur
grade remained In tho hall and listen
ed to a talk by Professor Kedway on
"Beginning Geography." The speaker
during the course of his remarks
dwelt upon points that are usually
thought to be somewhat outside of the
range of geography but which throw a
flood of light on the subject and serve
to add life and interest to It.
Superintendent Coughlin followed
with a talk on language study. He
guve suggestions with reference to
spelling and advised that the child be
taught to copy accurately from the
printed page. Next the pupil should be
given lessons dictated by the teacher.
Heading should be given by the teach
er and the pupil required to give the
substance of the selections read, and
the pupil should also be required to
commit poetry and prose to memory
and then write it out.
TWO PAPERS READ.
The primary and Intermediate teach
ers held their meeting in Young Men's
Christian association parlor where a
paper was read by P. H. Oreene, of
South Alilngton, on "Value of Profes
sional Training to Teachers of Ungrad
ed Schools." It was discussed by Miss
Mundane Kymer, J. H. White and J.
E. Brennun. "Music In the Public
Schools" was the title of a paper read
by John D. Davy, of Lackawanna
township, and Dr. Mara L, Pratt
brought the meeting to a close with a
talk on "United States History." The
two divisions of the teachers again
came together and listened to Dr. Hol
brank's talk on "Pedagogy."
"Education," he said "Is rtolnu much
to help the larger, broader thinkers In
the pulpit to forward the Ideas of those
who are In the pews. We are on the
move, but we have either the pessi
mistic or optimistic bent. Most teach
ers are optimistic and believe that God
is good now; that we don't have to
wait for an eternity for God to right
wrongs. God is working now, and he is
working In the good and the bad. In the
sweet as well as the sour. That Is a
very convenient notion that we have
thut there is a heaven where hereafter
everything will be all right, and a hell
also, but most of us have grown out
of that notion. We don't have to die
to go to heaven or to hell. Heaven and
hell are begun in our own hearts.
'The three things that the teacher
has to do with the mind, since the mind
is a growing thing, Is first, to feed the
mind; second, to stimulate it; third,
to direct It. The teacher's work and
responsibility ends there. He cannot
create the mind, but should feed, stim
ulate and direct It. The food of the
mind is found in the text books. In the
books on the shelves In the library. In
the tomes of ages that have been hand
ed down to uh. The letters on the
printed page are simply the vehicle
through which the mind of the greatest
of those who have lived. Is conveyed
to us."
SESSION OP THE AFTERNOON.
The usual singing exercises led by
Professor Cogswell opened the after
noon session, and then Superintendent
Coughlin gave one of his practical and
helpful talks. His topic was "How to
Study." He said there is a demand on
all sides to save time In educating the
young that they may be able to take
up the serious work of life at an earlier
day. Every pupil should have a gnod
education, and the best and quickest
way of securing It for the student is
one of the problems that the educators
of this aare have to deal with. With
reference to "How to Study," the speak
er divided his subject under three
heads, namely: observation, compari
son, analysis.
"It is not the auantlty of studies we
cover, but the thoroughness with which
they are learned that count in acquir
ing an education," he said. "The con
dition of mind In which the pupil comes
to the teacher has an Important bear
ing In the matter of securing an edu
cation, and the teacher of ability is
the one can bring the pupti wno ib
out of sympathy with his work Into
sympathy with it. The pupil should
bring a teachable spirit to school, but
If he does not the teacher should try
and develope It. The Interest you are
able to arouse In the pupil underlies
the whole subject of education. If you
can only get the pupil to be eager for
knowledge concerning any subject the
task he will have in absorbing that
knowledge is greatly diminished.
EASY ROAD TO KNOWLEDGE.
"One of the evils of today Is that
people want some kind of an education
al Incline plane, down which the pupil
can slide Into valuable knowledge. This
will never be obtained lor It is only
liv hard, nerslstent work that nn edu
cation is gained. If you want to make
rapid progress in any stuuy you inusi
iimWstnnfl the meaning: of words."
Mr rvmirhlin then dwelt upon the
beneficial reRults to the young pupils
of traveling about and gleaning Knowl
edge from observation, ine aeveiop-
ment of this factulty Is of the highest
Importance he believes.
"Comnartson." continued the speak
er, "Is a fruitful source of gaining
knowledge. It Incites an Interest In
studies and enables the pupil to gain
an amount of benefit from a lesson not
otherwise obtainable. Analysis Is an
other thing extremely Important to the
dudH. for by means of It the student
obtains a clear and logical Idea of the
topic under consideration." In closing
the speaker gave this advice to the
teacher with reference to studying:
Get your DUDlls Interested In the sub
ject, have them cultivate the habit of
comparison and analysis and, above
all, have them understand the English
language and the meaning of words,
for If the pupil is Ignorant of the exact
meaning of the words In a lesson, then
the information contained In that les
son Is at least partially lost."
By request of the teachers Professor
Cogswell sang a solo which so pleased
the members of the Institute that they
insisted on another Bong, and the pro
feasor gracefully consented to oblige
them. His nrst number was Mascher
onl's "Soldier's Song," and his second.
"Sweetest of Sweethearts," one of his
own compositions.
DR. PRATT ON CHILD STUDY.
Dr. Mara L. Pratt was the second In
structor of the afternoon, and she
spoke on her favorite subject, "Child
Study." The lecture was a, continuation
of the lecture on. the same subject by
Dr. Pratt Mondajf afternoon. She made
a strong plea for consideration for the
feelings of the child of tender years
In the school room and denounced as
fiendish the policy of teachers who gov
ern their pupils by constantly put
ting them In fear. Dr. Pratt said that
scientific investigation has proved be
yond the shadow of doubt that every
malevolent mental condition generates
an actual physical poison, which is det
rimental to the physical being.
It is often said that e, child's health
Is broken down by study but this Is
not true. No child's health, so far as
she knows, was ever broken down by
too much study. The health Is under
mined by worry of some kind, not by
study. No child, she declared, Is nat
urally lazy. As It advances In years It
may become lasy. but that la not the
child's normal condition. When a
pupil Is found who appears stupid or
lasy it will pay. Dr. Pratt thinks, for
the teacher to find out If the cause of
the trouble Is not a Physical defect.
A pleasant variation of the pro
gramme at this time was a recitation,
"Christmas In the Quarters," by Miss
Cora Griflln. It was a most creditable
effort and won for her hearty applause.
DR. HOLBROOK'S TALK.
The closing talk of the day was by
Dr. Holbrook, who gave another Instal
ment of his able dissertalons on "Peda
gogy." The watchword of the day, he
said, Is the child, and some of the
ablest minds are making a thorough
study of child life. He lampooned the
fadists who attempt in the school room
to teach the pupil what It learned In
formally long before it entered the
school. He said the teacher should
give the pupil credit for having some
brains, and of learning something from
his environments.
He opposed the policy of shutting
pupils of each separate grade In a sep
arate room, and advanced the state
ment that because of this grading pu
pils from country schools have the ad
vantage when they enter high schools
over city pupils, who have been edu
cated up through the graded school
with the express object In view of fit
ting them to enter the high Bchool.
Today the annual meeting of the di
rectors of the county will lie held in
Young Men's Christian association hall.
