Tbe acoident Is somewhat mysterious. He was en gaged in drilling an oil well and was alone in the derrick at tbe time, so tbat no one will ever know Just bow be re ceived this fatal Injuries. Two men who were in the engine bouse noticed blm ly ing on tbe floor of tbe derrick, and im mediately went to bis assistance.

Clark, of Tio nesta. Mr. Thomson was an honest, in dustrious citizen, one who made a host of friends wherever he went, who with bis family, mourn bis untimely death. He left this section with bis family sixteen years ago and followed the occupation of an oil well contractor. He located first at Bradner, Ohio, and later al North Balti more, Ohio, wbich was bis home at tbe time of bis death.

The Teachers' Institute. Tbe forty-third annual session of the Forest County Teachers' Institute, which closed Friday noon, was all that It prom ised to be and more. In fact It was tbe most successful ever beld In tbe county. This wss due to tbe untiring efforts of tbe County Superintendent, D. W. Mor rison, who spared neither lime or money to bring only the best talent before his teachers. Dr. Preston, a member of the New York State Institute Staff; Prof. Teitrick, one of the Deputy State Superintendents; Dr. Warren, a former supervisor In the Elmira schools; and Dr Smith, of tbe University of Pennsylvania, proved themselves peers In the educational realm. That tbey wets appreciated was shown by the good attendance of the teachers and tbe keen interest taken by them In each session. The talks given by Prof. Teitrick on "My Boy's Teacher," were very helpful. He showed that the teacher must be ener getic, progressive, resourceful, and a leader in the community In wbich be lives. In his talk, "Laws of Teaching," be said: "A good teacher la a good ques tioner." The questions should be gram matical, logical, concise, clear and snappy. Dr. Preston in bis talk on tbe "Present Trend of Educational Tbougbt," said tbat educatiou Is now vocational and tbat tbe reason so many pupils drop out of the 7th and 8th grades, they feel there is nothing in It for tbem. New York bas remedied this by establishing tbe trade schools. Boys fourteen or fifteen years of sge ran enter these schools and discover them selves as it were. Iu discussing "Tbe Home and the School," be urged tbat the teacher and parents co-operate to bring out the best lu the child. In bis talk on "First Steps in Reading," Dr. Warren urged tbat teachers set a standard and then strive to attain it. There must a certain foundation be laid In order tbat tbe child can learn to read well. Prepare blm through the story. The story will giye him sn appetite and he will be anxious to learn. Be on the look out for good methods or plans and incorporate tbem in your own teaching wherever it Is practicable. On Friday morning Dr. J.George Becbt, Principal of tbe Clarion State Normal, greeted the teachers in bis usual genial manner and gave a very inspiring and helpful talk. The evening entertainments were of an unusual high order. Tbe Commonwealth Male Quartette came recommended as one of tbe most popular companies of tbe institute platform. Those bearing it Wednesday evening agree that It Is tbe best ever brought to tbe town. Dr. War ren's Recital of "Julius Caesar" Is a scholarly Interpretation of tbe great clas sio and Is Intensely Interesting, so much so tbat Dr. Warren beld tbe audience spellbound for nearly two hours. RESOLUTIONS. Resolved. Tbat we tender to our Super intendenl, D. W. Morrison, our sincere thanks for tbe deep interest be sbnws in tbe public schools of the County, for tbe sympathy ana encouragement lie gives each individual teacher, and for tbe most excellent corps of instructors be procured for the institute. Resolved, That we express to the In structors of tbe Institute our gratitude for tbe help received from tbelr inspiring talks and for the new outlook of tbe educational world glveu to tbeteacbera of Forest county.
