A New Featuro for County Institute In order to keep up with the other progressive bounties 111 rennsyl vauia, an effort will bo made to pub lish the proceedings of the Teachers Institute of Snyder county this year, iu pamphlet form for tho benefit of tho teachers and others.

Tho essence of all the important talks and lectures will bo given. The best papers will be pub lished in full. This will give the teacher an opportunity to preserve tho best ideas for his guidance and instruction. Besides, tho pamphlet will be a kind of directory of the school interests of the County. Such a book would ordinarily cost from cents to 75 cents for each toucher but the Superintendent has made arrangements to publish the pro ceedings at a cost uot to exceed i!0 or 35 cents to each teacher. Tho sal aries of teachers is low, but we be lieve that the movement will be ap proved by every toucher in tho Co. The Superintendent would be glud to loarn the opinion of teachers concerning this move in order that he can make arrangements for the publication of the procee dings.
