North American the Medium for Exclu
sive Show by French Designers.
Something newer and bigger
than anything ever attempted in
the newspaper Held is to be given
to the public m the Worn m's Sec
tion of the Sunday North Ameri
can for September 20. The man
agement of the paper has under
taken to give to its womon read
ers the very latest of the styles
in tho lOuropean and American
fashion centers before the same
styles arc shown in and of the
fashion publications of the coun
try, and befoi e they are placod
on sale by the stores in the big
American cities.
In handling the tash t'.ie paper
has succeeded beyond its hope,
and the result of the labors of the
Paris and American staffs of the
paper will take the form of a
special section of sixteen pages,
including nearly 200 of the styles
for fall and winter shown m pho
tographs and drawings.
The great Paris designers of
dresses and millinery hava given
for publication those creations
which will not be seen by the
Paris public until they are given
to North American readers here.
They have virtually made Tho
North American the medium for
the first showing ot their new
designs in tins country.
The special number will bean
example of all that is most artis
tic in newspaper printing.

Teachers Meeting.
The Teachers' Preliminary
for the townships of Wells,
Tod and Dublin was held at
town on the 31st ult. William Hanck
was elected chairman: C. C. Rotz
talked on the opening of the schools
and the program. Miss Myrtle Sle
vens suggested that teachers visit the
building before the opening of the
school, examine the books, and get
an idea of the work. D. K. Chesnut
thinks the teacher's success depends
on his llrst days work. L. P. Morton
suggested using the first day in re
view work. Amos F'eightel does not
think it best to follow the same pro
gram of -work as last year. Miss
Blanche Peck would get something on
the board quick, and thus get pupils
busy as soon us possible. Klsie Hak
er saw very little use for a program
the llrst day. Send pupils home with
plenty of work to do. Bessie Fields
says a teacher should have the first
day's work very carefully planned be
forehand. Supt. Lumberson does
not like to hear a teacher speak dis
paragingly of her predecessor's work.
W. G. Wink does not think it possi
ble to get pupils down to hard work
the tirst day. Better work is done
after the novelty wears off. Ally
DishoDg discussed the importance of
libraries and the methods of estublish
ing them. W H. Hanck spoke of
systematic recreation as necessary to
the best results from a teacher's work.
Space forbids anything more than a
mere ubslruct of the work clone. It is
enough to say that the meeting was
full of interest and showed that the
teachers were entering upon their
work in no listless way, but were full
of zeal and energy. The teachers
present f'om Taylor were W. (1.
