(Observe Special)
A very successful and profitab e inst -tuta
was hld at Union Sat. Oct. 20.
The session was opened with C)tnt
Superir.iendent E. E. Bragg in toe c -i.r-
Alter sinin America. Mr B.si'p.
Princfai cf Union school lei-ii the
program for the day was taken up.
Mrs. if. C. Rtese f rst on pre.jMm
read a paper on ' Primary fveaJu-i" d 5-
cussing it with interest.
Prof. Hocktnbtrry and B shop discuss
ed points with regard to the so cdl!e
"senttncii" method referred fo in the
patr.
Piof. Hjckenberry held to the idea that
the pupil does not read a sentence as a
unit but rather to form a unit.
Pruf. Bishop claimed that the pupil docs
see, and can read the phrase as a unit.
Supt, E. E. Brafcg seemed to hold to
the opinion that strickly speaking there
is no real "sentence" method, but rather
this method should be called the phrase
method.
The discussion of the subject proved
beneficial to all.
In her paper' Mrs. Reese emphas;zed
these two facts in her own wnrH "Rd-
ing is a means of culture, without it the
pupil is never fully educated. The next
subject was given by Mr. J. F. Reynolds
on "Physical Development as related to
sanitation and education. He gave an
interesting and instructive talk which de
veloped discussion.
In the aftei noon, as Miss Rohan was
absent, Mr. Conklin, read her paper on
"Eighth Grade English."
The paper v as well prepared and the
practical points discussed.
She presented the idea that paragraph
work rather than a whole composition be
done in order to succeed well; that the
work should not be done merely for a test
but rather to secure good express ons on
the part of the pupil; that the work could
be used to help pupils to overcome false-
syntax.
She emphasized the fact "Not how
much, but how well."
The next subject presented was "High
School English" by Miss Eaton.
In her introductory remarks she laid
stress upon making the subject interesting
to inspire work on the part of the student
or pupil. I he subject was very logically
handled under two heads, intellectual and
moral. Under the first she remarked, as
the eye is trained to see the beauty of
nature about us, so the intellect should be
trained to see the form, rythmn and
beauty of the writer. Tne selections to
illustrate this point were good. The mor
al division, she said, "relates tc conduct
n life." That literature should be taught
that will develop the highest ideals. This
paper met the approval of all.
Prof. Hockenberry. superintendent of
La Grande schools, followed next, taking i
up the subject of "English Grammar."
His presentation of the subject was piam
and right to the point. He said that Eng
lish grammar is a grammar of form and
laid stress upon teaching forms of words
whicn have to do with construction in
sentences. He said he would teach two
tilings witli regard to language in school.
"a little gram:' ar. right forms, a little
rhetoric, right place of forms." !
Just at the close of the prcgram to:
musical numbers were rendered, a violin !
solo by Miss Hutchinson and a vocal solo !
by Miss Lela Giltillan. Both numbers;
were well rendered and rece-ved due ap j
preciation by the audience. There were'
id. ut fifty teachers present.
