WEDNESDAY MORNING,
Devotional service was conducted
by Rev. H. A. Buffington.
Dr. Teitrick—‘‘The fundamentals
in teaching.’”” Vocational work can
never take the place of the regular
academic work. Play instinct is the
one natural opportunitys to develop
virtues. Health and sanitation are
absolutely necessary. We should not
send children to school before they
are eight years of age.
There are three periods, eight to 11
memory. 11 to 15'physical. 15 reason.
Do not kill instincts; train them;
turn the fight instinct. Encourge; the
Bible ‘is the best book on pedagogy.

‘‘Standards of Education’’ by Prof.
Teitrick.
1. To inspire.

criticise. :
3. To drill and clinch.
4. Teach the child and not the sub-
ject.
Reading—Mrs. Martin.
‘Music—Jerry March.
Address —Henry Houck. ‘‘What is
a good teacher?’’ The teacher ought
to be a scholar. No one can examine
the teacher like the pupils. Children
stop school because they are not pro-
perly classified. It isa great thing
to be a disciplinarian. The best quali-
fication of a teacher is love for the
children. To put cheer in hearts is

Lari of making habits; the child
will revolutionize the world.
‘Difference between religion and
theology.
Religion is a feeling, an instinct.
You can teach theology but not reli-
gion. Train child in the forms of re-
ligion and in its proper expression.
You cannot teach Theology in
schools until all people voice upon one
fundamental principle. There are diff-
erences of opinion on what is right
to do.
Intentions determine motive of an
act.
‘‘Judge not lest thou be judged.’
Conduct can be judged.
Term social or anti-social ought to
be applied to an act.
Establish a habit of content that
suits the child’s world.
Dr. Houck followed:
‘‘Men may come and mer may go,
But Houck holds on forever.”’
It is a great thing to look at ths
bright side of life.
‘‘Say not welcome when I come,
Say not farewell when I go.”’

interesting entertainment in the even-

Address, Teacher’s Viewpoint, by

Confidence in the child begets con-

"Opening exercises are very impor-

Give to the world the best you have

Music by Professor Fike.
Address by Dr. Holmes, ‘‘The Peace
and Power of Ideas.” When the idea
is at the centre of consciousness, there
is attention. Connect the idea and
use it and then there will be interest.
Ideas must be made vitally associ»
ated with emotions. Mental confu-
sion is due to two opposite ideas.
Concentration of mind affects posi-
tion and condition of the body. What
a man thinks, that will he do. What
he thinks will leave the imprint upon
the body. Think right and you’ll do
right. What are you when you are
alone?
the best thing in life.

‘View points on child psychology?’
by Dr. Holmes.
1. Psychology deals with associa-
tions.
2. Psychology deals with self con-

A child is an individual with de-
mands. A child is the stardard of
the .world Jand the basis of the social
organization.

‘Effective Teaching”’—Prof. Tei-

1. Purposeful effect. There is a
difference between purpose and spasm.
2. The teacher ought to be éxact-

3. Do not ‘answer your own ques-
tions.
4. It is effort that educates.
5. Systematize, concentrate.
6. Be constant.
7. Every teacher must have the de-
gree of G. S.
Music by Jerry March.
Address—Instincts—childhood—Dr.
Holmes.
Imitative instincts are the strongest.
Instincts vary. Teachers save your
nerves.
Ultimately we fall back on instincts.
Instincts are transient. Do not
dominate the instincts of children.
* Instincts are periodic, purely sav-
age, barbarian, nomadic, agricultural
chivalry and modern.
Modify the bad;
good.
Encourage instinct of motherhood.
On the playground modify criminal
instincts.

lation between home and school.
4. Teachers must be engrgetic;. full
of vilality. Brain power, deportment

5. The teacher must be progressive
better each day.
6. Teacher must have sympathy.
In a crisis you will act as you have
thought in the past, voluntarialy. It
is possible to put a dominating idea
into a child’s mind that will change
his life.
The business of the week was over
and the hundreds of teachers were
now turning their minds and steps in
the direction of their homes and their
school work.

General Villa, who personally di-

abandoned three field pieces which
were seized by the Carranzistas.
Villa’s forces reserved their ammuni-
tion and silenced ths Federal artil-.
lery fire by sharpshooting.
Federal prisoners, who said they
had been conscripted, were given
blankets and food by General Villa;
then they were released.
Juarez is practically empty of am-
munition and supplies, every cart
ridge having been sent to the front.
Stretched in a semi-circle for fifteen
miles the rebel troops presented a
formidable battle line, and so far the

the season, with a total of. 29 dead
and 27 injured; Michigan came next
with 28 dead amd 16 injured; New
York was third, with 19 dead and 1
injured.
The careless handling of weapons
was the chief cause of death. Thirty-
seven persons lost their lives at their
own hands. Twenty-four others shot
themselves, but escaped with lesser
injuries. The careless traveling com-
panion was held responsible for twen-
ty-four deaths and nineteen injuries.
