MONTROSE.
Eprclal to (lie Scriuilon Tribune.
Montrose, Oct. 19. The teachers' In
stitute adjourned Bhortly before noon
today and most of the teachers have
left for home. Tho Institute was high
ly successful from start to finish anil
Its management relleets great credit
upon our popular county superintend
ent, Professor Charles E. Moxley, of
HiillHtend. The Instruetlon received by
the teachers this week has been of the
most practical kind nnd It cannot be
doubted that tho teachers return home
with richer treasures of knowledge ami
better equipped to successfully con
tinue their noble work of education
of tho young than before. The
most Important feature of the In
stitute yesterday was the annual
mooting of the County Directors' asso
ciation. The association was called to
order by tho President, F. A. Davles,
of Clifford, who delivered a brief and
scholarly address, In which he spoke
of how few school directors have
knowledge of their full powers and
tho heavy responsibilities of their po
sition. Directors should take pains to
inform themse.lves as to these matters
nnd then net accordingly, even though
they might become objects of crltclsm
by some citizens by so doing. Mr.
Davles urged tho directors to provide
school libraries, which could be done
without great expense and would be
of Inestimable value to the scholars,
teachers and to the community. Col
onel C. C. Pratt, O. A. Gilbert, E. P.
Brotzman, F. P. Payne and 13. A. Cap
ron were appointed a committee on
nominations, and D. A. Tltsworth, W.
J. Brodhead, F. J. Bedell, J. L. Wil
liams and Giles A. AVatrous were ap
pointed a committee on resolutions. D.
T. Brewster, estp, of Montrose, ex
plained what the legal procedure
should bo In the hiring of teachers,
levying taxes, adopting text books, etc.
Colonel Pratt moved, and It was unan
imously carried to make an assessment
of 25 cents on each director registered
for tho purpose of defraying the nec
essary expenses of the association.
Officers for the ensuing year were
elected as follows: F. A. Davles, presi
dent; E. M. Watson, vice-president;
D. A. Tltsworth, secretary;" O. A. Gil
bert, treasurer. President' Davles and
Colonel Pratt were chosen delegates,
to the state convention. The afternoon
session was held at the armory and
besides the directors and teachers a
large number of citizens were In at
tendance. The committee on resolu
tions reported as follows: "AVe, tho
school directors of Susquehanna coun
ty, in our fourth annual convention, do
resolve that we extend to Superintend
ent Moxley our thanks for the excel
lent programme furnished for this, the
thirty-third annual teachers' Institute,
and for the Directors' association, and
for the good Judgment shown In the
selection of able andcompetent In
structors. Resolved, That we extend
our thanks to the instructors of this
Institute for their earnest and able
instructions, etc. Resolved, That we
look with regret at the lack of Interest
among school directors in not attend
ing these annual meetings and that we,
as directors and teachers, resolve to
do all In our power to arouse 'school
officers to a fuller realization of their
duties and privileges." The resolutions
were unanimously adopted. The bal
ance of the afternoon was taken up
by selections by Elizabeth de Barre
Gill and addresses. "Relations of Di
rector, Teacher and Parent" was ad
mirably discussed by Dr. Ferris and
Dr. Davis spoke on "Psychology." Last
evening the teachers were given a rare
treat at the armory by the John
Thomas concert company. The ar
mory was fined to the full limit of Its
capacity and the immense audienci!
was completely carried away by the
delightful programme presented. This
morning the closing session was held,
being devoted largely to the appoint
ment of various committees and fare
well addresses by the Instructors,
