The institute be gins at 10:30 a. m. An interesting program has been arranged. TEACHERS' (Continued from Page One.) number of ablest relatives hered ity." "Tho greatest Instinct in man is life. The instinct of deception was found ln the remote past." Miss Freida Rose, Honesdale, read a splendid paper on "Feeling," "Sen sation," "Fusion and Discrimina tion." Among other things she said: "As long ns we assume a cool and calm appearance we are not angr or afraid. Indigestion produces' a feeling of dissatisfaction with our work. Excessive novel-reading and excessive theatre-going are sources of morbid feeling." The morning session closed at twelve o'clock. Saturday Afternoon. The first subject at the afternoon session was presented by Walter Healy, Honesdale, in an Interesting paper entitled "Provision for Speci fic Purposes," "The Supplementing of Thought," ns two factors of study. The question of how rightly to In fluence pupils during their High school courso evoked considerable discussion. Many are there, it was said, simply because they were sent. What to do to make them have a specific purpose, and something de finite in life is a serious proposition, "in some cases," remarked Prof. Mark Creasy, Hawley, "we ought to give them different ancestors." Prof. Koehler thought "we ought to take the pupils aside and have a private conversation with them." "Ability, health and strength," he considered three fundamental qualifications for any young person who wanted to be come a successful teacher. "The Organization of Ideas," "Judging the Soundness and General Worth of Statements," as two fac tors of study, was the subject of a well-prepared paper given by Miss Marie McDermott, Honesdalo, Among other things she said: "The reading and judging of newspapers uuu may uu u jiruuiuuit; exercise, iteuu nui 10 cuiuruuici and refute, but to weigh and con sider." The High School Boy's Chorus sang "We are Jolly Blacksmiths" ln a pleasing manner. A Farmer's Remarkable Memory. "Memorizing," "The Use of Ideas," as two factors of Study," was the subject of a paper given by Miss Mar garet Rose, Honesdale, who cited the Instance of a "Pennsylvania farmer who could remember the day of tho week on which any date fell for forty-two years back, and the kind of weather on that day." A list of un related words Is hard to remember. According to Supt. Koehler, the State High School Inspector only re commends History three times a week. "We have a large number of country schools," said Mr. Koehler that have only fifteen pupils, and a lot of them have fewer. In the majority of the country schools, the little ones are neglected." Miss Orra Rollison, Hawley, and recently of Chicago, 111., gave an instructive talk on "Primary Plans and Devices." "We ought to have several visit ing days," she suggested, "so that we could go into other rooms and see how other teachers meet their prob lems." Among tho "Indispensable" things a primary teacher ought to have, she enumerated 1. Pencils Dixon's Be glnners No. 308 2. Oak tags. 3. Letter "alphabet cards." 4. Manila envelopes for seat work, 5. A pair of scissors for every child, 6, Charcoal, etc. 7. Picture books baby books, animal books, etc. "I couldn't teach school," she said, "without a pair of scissors." STITUTE "The primary teacher should de velop the pupil's ability to attend. Hold him to the thing we havo re quired him to do. Develop his abil ity to study. Teach him to acquire the hnblt of drawing a conclusion for himself from what he rends, ln the lirst year there should be four periods a day for Reading. "Wo play a great many games. Children enjoy doing tilings In "play way." The "play Idea" will help the children. I want them active. When they're doing something they're interested. Stop them In tho height of their play. Action work Is Important." When the institute adjourned at 4:30 p. m., tho general consensus of opinion was that It was the most profitable local Institute ever held ln Honesdale.

Schuller, Miss Bessie Bunnell, .Miss Bessie Dudley, Miss Ida Coleman, Miss Mary Murphy, Miss Isabel Rellly, Miss Mary Hlggins, Miss Marie McDer mott, Miss Julia F.

State Gnnio Commissioner Says So And He Ought To Know. State Game Commission Secretary Joseph Kalbfus in his report on game for 1910 reports a general in crease of game, insect destroying and song birds in all sections of the state, the ,gamo birds hunted in the fall be ing especially abundant. Tho report also recommends that there be a codification of tho game laws and a revision of the seasons. some of which suit one section of the state and some another while laws for the destruction of vermin are commended. The commissioner also strongly favors the hunters' license bill which is just now being widely discussed. The following letter from Prof Surface, economic zoologist, of the State Department of Agriculture Harrisburg, to an inquirer from the western part of the state, who writes for information on how to rid his cornfields of wireworms, may be found instructive to others troubled with this pest: "Concerning wireworms in your corn, I must say that 1 am satisfied that you can not put anything in the soil that is strong enough to kill the wlreworm, or even drive It away without damage to the soil and the crop. Tho best thing, to do Is to get ready for these pests by plow ing the land In the fall. Perhaps plowing in the early spring and cultivating several times with a spring-toothed harrow would help greatly to reduce them. If you can follow the sod with some crop like potatoes, which, as you havo ob served, they do not so severely In jure, it might be well to do so. Then immediately after the potatoes sow rye, doing this as early as pos sible in the fall, and turn the rye down ln the spring, and follow this with corn.

Temp est Co., who were here last season and gave good satisfaction. .Miss Delia Hurd, Honesdale, will remain with her sister, Mrs. D. Blng' ham, until Spring. must be one of agricultural meth ods rather than the direct applica tion of insecticides. It Is there ow ing to the fact that It breeds In, the roots of the plants ln a sod Held, and when these are destroyed by turning with a plow, the pest sim ply transfers its attention to the corn roots as these are the only growing plants offering available food. "Where sod Is turned for corn, ! there are liable to be several insects ' in the soil that will do damage. Cut worms are often bad In such places. These can be killed by mixing one part of Paris Green with about fifty pnrts of bran or shorts, and molsteiiT lng with water to which a little strong molasses has been added. A very small pinch of this dropped along in tho corn row immediately after the corn comes up, or about the time it is sprouting, will serve to destroy thousands of cut worms. "One of our progressive Lancaster county farmers destroyed the cut worms in his newly planted sod field by sowing the corn broadcast over the field under our directions. Tho crops of other fields surrounding him were badly injured, but his wns fine, and paid well for the slight ex pense and trouble." Mnrringe License Record. Clurenco Sterner Scranton.
