We cordially invite our thousands of patrons to come any time, but especially Proceedings lit an Inlrro School Tenihcrs Yesterday A very Interesting local Teachers' In stitute was held In the High school building yesterday afternoon with all hut one of the teachers In attendance and Superintendent I'. 1). ItoRart presiding. Tho meeting was of general interest in that It brought out many points hearing upon the relations of teachers and pupils to each other, and In one Instance touched upon methods of punishment that should be resorted to where pupils inislie hao, or arc obstinate. This subject brought out a statement by Superintendent Itognrt that considerable complaint had lieen made, to him that some teachers are in tho habit of striking pupils on their heads. Ho said he wanted It under stood that under no circumstances would he give support to a, teacher who resorted to tha. kind of punishment. The Superinten dent added that tho oll'ences committed by pupils are of such a variety that It would be llillcult to assign it .punishment that would be proper for all, or toenumeratewhatshould ho done In the respective degrees, but that thcro Is a natural punishment for every of- funco and a true teacher will seek to know what that punishment is, and use it. Tho superintendent also said that ho had found that Homo teachers were not prompt in opening their schools and souio have been in tho habit of going home and leaving pupils in tho rooms to finish their work In tho evenings. Ho spent some, time In criticising those practices. l!y way of diversion .Superintendent Iiogart called tlio blackboard and chalk Into play and gave a problem. It was solved in two ways and the teachers were called upon to grade tho problem. Tho result was a wide dilleienco in tho percentage estimated by tho lill'erent teachers and quite a spiritod debate followed and tlio Superintendent asked the teachers to give the subject thought for sub sequent consideration. He said tho problem was presented to show the necessity of uni formity in estimating examination papers. Meetings will be held to bring about this uniformity as far as possibloin all grades, Tho subject of fall studies was picsented by Misg Cliue, in which sho gavo many ex cellent suggestions for teachers of all grados to have pupil bring into tlio school rooms leaves, nuts, seeds, etc., as well as different forms of roots, in order that the pupils may learn facts concerning them. Tho object of this is to awaken tlio power of observation on the part of children, as well as to Impart knowledge Superintendent llognrt not only strongly endorsed the suggestions of the teacher, but highly complimented her for tho forethought in making them. Tho subject of language was presented by Miss Kimuiel, in which was brought out tlio necessity of constant vigilance on tho part of teachers to break up snob expressions as "I done it," "I seen it," "Mo father" and many such bad habits of speech that aro heard every day. .Miss Kiminel's idea was that this work is of more importance than the text hook work in grammar, and she put this very pertinent question, "How much better aio our pupils In school talking in every day language than hoys and girls who don't have tho opportunity of attending school V" Prof. Cooper, Mr. Hooks and Misses O'Conucll, Morrison and Kolb were appointed a committee of five to hi range piogr.ims for tho institutes to bo held about two nnd four weeks bunco, ute- rc..umm.mum..i.u........;? sting .Meeting of 3 J? 1 Hv SHOES AT FACTORY PRICES.
