ADDRESS BY PROFESSOR HOVELL
Ho Snltl tho Tcncher Who Counts
in Educational Work Is tho Otto
with IndlvldunlitvTho One Who
Does Not Possess It Is n i School
Keeper and Not n School Tcncher.
Addresses by President Jennings
nnd Controllers Gibbons- and
Wormscr.
Misses Mary Qarpenter, Mary Dan
iels, Jane V. Fellows, Ltla Frable, Clara
Glbbs, May Adelle Qraves, Louise B,
Leader, Rahel Powell, Catherine L.
Qulnnan and Rose I. Shields, members
of this year's graduating class at the
Scranton Training school for teachers,
gave a public exhibition of the work
In the school room yesterday after
noon at the high school. The exercises
were Intended as a preliminary to the
commencement night entertainment,
and a3 an opportunity for the public
to see the methods used In the training
of prospective teachers.
As there are no final examinations
possible according to the conduct of
the training school, Superintendent of
Schools George Howell and T. J. Jen
nings, John Gibbons, F. T. Worm
ier, A. L. Francois, V. J. Lan
gan and George Carson, mem
bers of the school board, were pres
ent In a semi-ofllclal way to criticize,
favorably or otherwise, the work that
has been done by Miss Mary E. Sykes,
instructress at the school.
The criticism was all compliment
ary. to both teachers and pupils, and
Superintendent Howell heartily, and
effectively expressed his pleasure with
the work of the day. '
WORK WAS PRACTICAL.
The room was comfortably seated
with friends of the class. The work
had been nicely arranged by Miss
Sykes. It consisted of practical teach
ing of classes of pupils from Miss
Rafter's room In the high school. These
pupils were little girls and boys, whose
ages vary from 6 and 12 years, chosen
promiscuously and with no thought of
their peculiar Intellectual fitness for
public parade. One of the children was
a little colored girl, two were Italians.
It showed forcibly the cosmopolitan
character of the school.
The pupils were divided into classes
of six or seven, and each member of
the graudatlng class was alloted 15
minutes of time for teaching on given
subjects of reading, language and num
bers. A noticeable feattue of the work v. as
the confidence and complacency of the
embryo teachers. Susceptibility to
nervousness on public appearances
seems to have been wholly overcome.
At times durinc the exercises the
teachers sang the ditties that are sung
in thp real school room. After the ex
ercises which concluded at 3.45 o'clock
MUs Sykes requested Superintendent
Howell to uddress! the class. The re
sponse was one 6f the finest short ad
dresses that the eloquent superintend
ent has made. Ho first conducted a
short sevete drill of the teachers. The
answers came unhesitatingly and cor
rect. In giving his direct address to
th graduates Superintendent Howell
said:
PROrBSSOR HOWELL'S ADDRESS.
Ralph Waldo Emerson said he would
cros.3 the ocean to talk with o.ie great
man (meaning Carlyle) rather than see
ail monuments and treasures of art In
Europe. What does thi moan, doe the
SagoofConcordplaceporsonallly above in
tellectual achievements, above knowledgo
Itself? .cs, and today when you turn a
golden leaf in the calendar of life write
upon its margin, "personality, far more
than my learning shall determine my val
ue as a teacher." The teachei's worth
lies more In what ho Is than in what he
knows. You may have the philosophy
of a Hosenkranz, a Mann, -a Parker, a
Payne or a Harris, but unless you hae
a personality which will Impress Itself
upon your pupils, you fail In the work of
education. You become a school keeper,
not a school teaciher.
Personality Is not sufficiently recognized
as an educational factor. Human beings
are constantly exerting an unconscious
influence upon one another, insensibly
moulding character, conduct and destiny.
In chemistry there Is a process called
catalysis, a process by which one sub
stance changes others yet remains un
changed Itself. For instance, starch In
tho, presence of an acid Is converted into
sugar while the acid is unaffepted. Sliver
and gold can decompose the blnoxldo of
hydrogen without any effect being pro
duced upon themselves. This power of
catalysis, however, is not confined to the
inorganic world. It Is a common process
In tho organic world. We see it constant
ly In tho piocesses of germination and
fermentation, aye, In the secretion of
blood Itself, In fact a careful examina
tion of the cause of growth' and decay,
life and death, will reveal the fact that
they are all produced by this powerful
yet unseen catalytic power.
Again, let us continue the analogy.
What makes the tree frog green like the
boughs and branches of the' tree, the
grouse brown like the moors, the skate
tawny like tho sandy bottom of the sea,
the polar bear wMlo like the snow clad
llelds of the frozen North, the Arab brown
like the parched sand of the desertV
HAWTHORNE'S ANSWER.
Hawthorne has given you tho logical an.
swer and has beautifully pictured the ef
fect of the "action of presence" in the
story, "The Great Stone Face." There Is
but one conclusion. We become like unto
that upon which we look. The mind,
too, is tinged with all colors that touch
the retina. There Is an unsuspected yet
intimate relationship between our habits
of looking and our habits of thinking.
Let your presence then in the school room
be sunshine, your heartfelt Interest good
cheer, your actions, conduct, principles,
and all the Invlror.ments of the school
room be such as to ennoble and beautify
the soul of the child. And are we re
sponsible for this unconscious Influence,
this secret strength or vlrtuo within "us
that goes out to heal or destioy? Yes, we
cannot repudiate our responsibility, for
character Is tho sum total of all our
thoughts, feelings and actions. Life Is n
structure made up of what we have
thought, said, done and experienced.
True, character when made is beyond our
control; Its silent influence we cannot di
rect or Impede, but we are responsible for
its formation. Our accountability to the
child, the parent and the state, and tp
God shall be determined by our ability to
build and moud character.
Doctor Schaeffer, in his Boston address
in 'W, said: "The time has come to em
phaslze the Importance of the living
teacher, to magnify the Socrates behind
the desk rather than his method or the
material which he utilizes In feeding the
mind of hli pupil."
Methods and devices are requisite. The
technical knowledge of the normal and
training school are essential, but we must
not pin our faith to the learning or these
schools. We must adapt, not adopt. Wo
really know only what experience has
wrought Into our being. Truth that has
been merely learned, says Schopenhauer,
Is like an artificial limb, a false tooth, a
wdxv'n nose, i aaneres to us only be
cause It ha bi put on. We are strong
jrhen we. follow our pwn talent, weak
when led by the talent of another. We
cn fight btst at all times In our own ar
mor, GOLIATH AND DAVID. .
For a good lllurtratlcn from the
hlghnst authority Ut m ink yot back
to ancient days, T6U rtmmbr the con
test between Goliath and DaVld. Goliath
had a helmet of brass upon his head, e.tu
was armed with a coat of mall that
weighed 5,000 shekels of brass. Ho had
greaves of bras upon his legs and a, tar
get of bra between his shoulders. Ills
spear was like a. WeftVMM beam and the
spear's hold weighed CC0 DhakoU of Iron,
Ills armor etetneu strength and perfec
tion itself. David, oil the other hand,
was without borrowed armor, rHul, you
remember, put upon David's head a hel
met of brass and armed htm with a coat
of m'nll, but David raid, "I Cannot go with
these, for I havo not proved them," and
he went to battle with the champion of
tho Phlllattnc-s with his sling and five
smooth stones from the brook. You
know the result and tho triumph of Da
vldi And what does this lossoh tea oh T It
teaches you and me to fight not in bor
rowed armor, It teaches you and me that
success comes from that which wo havo
proved ourself. You cannot shine llko tho
moon by borrowed light, in the Intellec
tual world, MUs Sykes has no counter
part In teaching, neither havo I nor any
other teacher. Ycur ego must enter the
mothod you use or the method Is stmply a
name, not a living force.
Having briefly touched your personality
as a teacher and emphasized the import
ance of adaption, not adoption, let mo
now call your attention to the young
teacher's greatest mistake, greatest skein
of omission. Two years previous to her
reign as a teacher she has lived in an at
mosphere of criticism. Her normal and
training teachers have pointed out do
fects in practice work and unconsciously
the pupil has bQcomo .- critic and when
she enters tho school room for the first
time her trained eye is searching lot cr
ors, blundes and mistakes made by the
pupils, and of couso she finds them. But
does she find, too, the points worthy of
commendation? No, she frequently waits
for experience to dictate that lesson. O,
I lovo that old legend of the Rabbi and
their teacher walking upon the shore of
Galilee.
THD TRUE CRITIC.
These In advance, you remember,
stumbled upon the carcass of a dead
dog. One started back In disgust, an
other cried out upon the stench, another
cursed the rotten bones. Then the great
teacher approached. His eye fell upon
the object. For a moment Ills face dark
ened with sorrow and then it beamed with
a Joyous light. "See," he cried, "see, Its
teeth aro white as pearls." There you
have the truo spirit of criticism. He who
pronounces Judgment and finds fault only
leaves art where he finds It. The man
who discovers beauty that has never been
noticed beforo adds to human happiness
and the intellectual wealth of the world.
As this occasion affords me the last op
portunity to address you, let me call your
attention briefly to n few things well
known to the successful teacher.
First Guard your heart and mind
galnst prejudices of any kind: let the
t, Njiir soul, broad as truth itself and
high xB God.
Second Do not attempt to teach too
many things. It Is the provenco of our
public sohools to give thorough Instruc
tion In a fow things not a superficial
knowledge of many things.
Third Never compare one child with
another. Individual superiority should
bring its own reward, mental stupidity
its own rebuke.
Fourth Ride no hobbles. Partiality to
one branch means impartiality to tho oth
ers. Good education Implies a well bal
anced mind, a symmetrical man.
Fifth Learn to lovo nature. The se
quel to my text hero can be found In this
bit of doggerel;
"Franco has her Illy, England her rose,
Everybody knows where tno shamrock
grows.
Scotland has her thistle, flowering in the
hill.
But the American emblem is a one dollar
bill."
MUST COME FROM WITHIN.
You cannot expect as teachers to count
your wealth In stocks and bonds and
golden eagles, your riches must come
from within not from without. When
Paul Hayne, the. Southern poet, was
walking near his home one day with a
friend, his friend said, "Paul, who owns
that forest of pine?" Hayne replied:
"My neighbor Smith pays the taxes on
It, but I own it." And ho did. His ear
had been attuned to tho melodies of na
ture, tho grand oratorios of the forest; his
eye had beTn trained to see tho glorious
tints of the artist divine in the sunset
hues back of the wavering pines.
Sixth Let the heart rule the head. Love
rules or should rule the world. Tenny
son's tribute to this universal spirit In his
drama, "Reckot" is to you my last and
parting thought.
Salisbury, you remember, wanted Beck
et to conceal himself from the wrath of
the king, but he relied on the sympathy
and love concealed within the human
heart, and these are his lines while con
templatlng the penalty threatened by the
king:
"I once was out with Henry in the days
When Henry loved me, and we came
upon
A wild-fowl sitting upon her nest so still
I reached my hand and touched her; she
did not stir,
Tho snow had frozen 'round her and she
sat
Stone-dead upon a heap of ice cold eggs,
Look I how this love, this mother runs
Through all the world God made, even
the beast the bird.
President of the School Foard Jen
nings then made a short address Mr.
Gibbons and Mr. Wormser followed.
With gracious expression of thanks for
th'e attendance of friends and the kind
remarks of the officials Miss Sykes
closed the session.
The commencement night has not
been definitely decided upon as yet.
BOARD OF ENGINEERS.

ings of the First Dny Pf tho May
Term of Common Picas.
Tho three weeks' term of civil court
began yesterday with Judges Gunster
and Edwards presiding. Among the
106 cases on the list is the latest Jen-nlngs-Lehlgh-Valley,
et al. case, com
monly referred to as the omnibus case,
because It includes among the defend
ants everybody that figured in any way
In the previous cases. It stands at the
head of the second week's list, whore
it was placed. .
Another Jennings case, one of tho
originals from .which all the others
grew, was set down for tomorrow, but
through the graclousness of Judge
Qunster was continued until Septem
ber. At last argument court a hsarlng
was had on a motion of Major Everett
Warren, of counsel for the Lehigh Val
ley company, to compel Jennings to en
gage new council, his attorney of rec
ord, Cornelius Smith, having been dis
barred from tho Lackawanna courts.
Court granted the motion and JeK
nlngs was notified to hire new counsel.
Yesterday morning while Judge Gun
ster was busy at his desk in chambers,
Cornelius Smith walked in, laid a paper
before the Judgo and retired, not saying
a word nor waiting to be spoken to.
When Judge Gunster came upon the
bench after the noon recess he an
nounced that Cornelius Smith had the
"Indiscretion" to enter his office alone
and lay before hm a motion for a con
tinuance oi tne jennings-j-ienign val
ley case. As Mr. Smith was no longer
a member of the Lackawanna bar, ho
said the Judges would not have any
dealings with him as an attorney, but
that Jennings might not be made to
suffer he would summon him before
court to be heard in his own behalf.
JENNINGS SENT FOR.
Jennings and Major Warren were
both sent for and arrived in a short
time. Jennings came in accompanied
by Smith, and the latter stood near his
client's elbow or paced up and down
the bar enclosure while Jennings was
being Interrogated.
In answer to Judge Gunster's ques
tion Jennings said he was acquainted
with the contents of the paper which
Smith had presented and as the petition
set forth he was desirous of having a
continuance. He said he had no means
to employ counsel now, but thought
he would be able to do so In September.
Major Warren said ho would not object
to the continuance as he did not wish
to place any hardship on Jennings.
Smith at this Juncture moved up
alongside Jennings and made some sug
gestion to him. Judge Gunster prompt
ly and with some feeling informed him
that he could not practice law in this
court. Smith made some Inaudible re
ply and resumed his pacing up and
down the enclosure.
After a brief deliberation Judge Gun
ster handed down the following:
Jolfh G. Jennings vs. The Lehigh Valley
Railroad company. No. 3?, March T,
1SS9
Now, May 31, 1M7. plaintiff moves the
court to continue the case on the ground
that the rule taken upon him to employ
new counsel In the case was not disposd
of until tho twenty-fourth day of May,
1897, and l.e had not sufficient time to em
ploy new counsel and prepare the case for
trial
May 31, 1897, we refuse to entertain the
motion on the application of C. Smith, esq.
Tho above motion being presented again
in open court by tho plaintiff in person
the motion Is grunted and the caso con
tinued. By the Court.
The first paragraph was In the hand
writing of Cornelius Smith, but con
tained no signature.
OTHERS CONTINUED.
Other cases continued were: Joseph
Mosteller against John Griffin and oth
ers, wages; W. A. McDowell against
William P. Joyceiinterpleader; W. A.
Morris against a. A. Fuller, appeal;
Michael Moron against the city of Car
bondale, damages; Daniel E. Gray
against F. Ferris and others.ejectment;
Michael Jordan and others against
John Regan and others, ejectment; A.
B. Herrlngtcn against Guernsey Broth
ers, debt; William Gilroy against Cen
tral Railroad of Now Jersey, damages;
Isaac E. LaBar against the Greenwood
Coal company, debt.
Only one case got to trial. It was
that of S. J. Hinds against the Bonta
Plate Glass company. Hinds was em
ployed at Mooslc works and sues for
j?39 balance of wages. The claim is
not denied but tho defense avers that
J. W. Bonta and the company Is re
sponsible for the wages, as the com
piny did not take the plant off Bonta's
hands until after It shut down. Bonta
went on the stand for the defense and
admitted that their contention was
true, that the agreement between him
and the company was that he should
erect the plant and prove Its efficiency
and then the company was to buy It
from him. The tests only had been
completed when the shut down oc
curred, Cornelius Comegys appears for tho
plaintiff, and James H. Torrey, ex
Judge W. H. Stanton and W. I. Hibbs,
of Pittston, represent the company.
The case was on at adjournment.
SCHOOL DISTRICTS' TROUBLES.
The case of the school district of
Roaring Brook township against the
school district of Elmhurat borough
was celled before Judge Edwards In
court room No. 2, but the attorneys In
the case, Ira H. Burns and John F.
Scragg for the plaintiff, and S, B, Price
for the defense, thought they could
adjust the differences out of court and
accordingly It was continued for settle
ment. Tho suit crows out of the refusal of
the Elmhurst directors to accommodate
in their school two children of Roarlnir
Brook township, who live Just across
the line from the Elmhurst school and
who, If they are not allowed to attend
th'ere, must do without schooling as tho
nearest school within their township
Is over two mllet away.
The Roaring Brook people offered to
pay their tuition as the law covering
tho case directs, but the Elmhurst
board declined to receive tho children
under any consideration saying that
the particular grade which the two
children question would enter Is over
crowded f.nd It Is Impossible to accom
modate tliem.
