Teacher's F.aaalae4.
At the public teacher's examination in
this city last week the following were ex
amined for teacher's certificates : F M
Mitchell, Oscar C Maxwell, Ida Maxwell,
Lillie Robertson, Fred J Yates George F.
Russell, Frankie Hopkins, Jane Morris,
Minnie Vaughn, Emma Roberts, Susie
Howard, Linnie Ramsey, Louis Barzce, C
W Skeels, Clara Roberts, M F Paul, Lydia
Charlton, S A DeVaneyJ B Hughea,Laura
Stewart, Alice Cheshire, Mellie Coldy
Fannic Griggs, Mrs Jennie B Caldwell. It
has been Superintendent Ricd's policy to
get as many as possible to attend the publ ic
examinations ; it being a mistaken idea that
a better chance i offered at a private exam
ination. As a matter of fact two or three
of the above will get certificates, who
(ailed at recent private examinations.
The papers of the above applicants have
not all been examined ; but it is thought
all but three or four will pass, nine or ten
probably obtaining first grade certificates
The class was a good one.
What We ray fmr Things.
Our flour costs us $1.10 to $1.25 a sack.
Wheat is 63 cents. We pay j cents a
pound for granulated nugar by the keg and
get 11 pounds for a dollar. Potatoes can
b; bought for 10 to 25 cents, and apples are
60 cents a bushel and scarce. Meat is all
the way from 6 cents to a square bit, nice
sirloins being sold foi the latter. A ham
will cost 10 cents a pound. New onions are
10 cents a small bunch, pie plant three for
a quarter and lettuce 10 cents a bite, more
or less. Lard is 10 cents a pound, and Ivory
soap 10 cents a cake. You can get a good
dinner for 25 or 50 cents. The Democrat
is $2.50 a year and new subscribers right
along.

a meeting of the Board, held in Portland.
The time for holding the annual tournament
meeting of the Association was set for the
8th, 9th and 10th of September. This late
day was agreed on to accommodate the As
toria boys, among the most valuable mem
bers of the Association. This year the tour
nament is expected to be the most exciting
in the history of the Association, as Wash
ington Territory is included in it,and Seattle
and a number of other cities there have
"crack" hose teams.

The College Ketcrtaia
The entertainment given at the College
on last Friday evening was very meritorious,
as well as interesting. Principally elocu
tionarv on the part of the students,) showed
marked improvement in that line of study.
The entertainment was opened at 8 o'clock
by prayer by Rev. S. G. Irvine. Misses
Beth Conner and Lilly Robertson were
heard in a well executed piano duet, "The
Bells of Comcville ;' Miss Vesta Mason
was a genuine Boston girl in her rendition
of "The Awfully lively Philosophy f The
"Gray Swan," by Miss Flora Mason was
well recited ; Mrs. E. W. Langdon sang
with her usual popular effectual ways appre
ciated ; Miss Esther Marshall recited about
what they do at the springsf with force and
expression, showing excellent elocutionary
training ; Mr. Maxwell and "Courting under

and Flora Mason, Helen Crawford, Beth
Conner, Esther Marshall, Bertha Keifer and

was heard in a finely executed piano solo.
Miss Helen Crawford recited the "Witches

tertainment.
War ArbbsI Agitation.
It is the proper time of the year to make
our annual agitation for a County fair. We
need one ; every County needs one. There
are the grounds a mile from the city. They
are in a fair condition now : how can we go
to work to get their use for a County fair,
and if we could get their use do the farmers
really want to join in making a fine exhibit
that will attract attention. We are sort of
confused on the subject, for there has been
a sort of confusion in the matter for several
years ; but we know there is a decided,strong
sentiment among many that Linn county
ought to have a fair to exhibit its splendid
resources. Will some one, and more too.

at the right end, that something more than
newspaper talk will be the result.

The horse exhibit in Salem last Saturday
was a fine affair, over one hundred blooded
horses being in line, offeriag an exhibition
of the best stock in Oregon. Among others
from this county was Millard & Elkins
Cleveland Bay, one of the finest looking
stallions there. The Democrat has on
several occasions proposed a horse show In
Albany. Next Spring our horsemen should
declare their metal and bring together the
best stock of this part of the Valley. It
creates a greater interest in first-class stock
and would be an incentive to our farmers
to keep only good horses. They pay in the
long run.

it was sprung back, hitting Mr. Scott, who
was standing near, on one pf his legs just
below the knee pan, breaking the outside
bone. Dr. Foley, of Lebanon set the bone

A perlsl Mcrtiag.
Last Monday evening a special meeting
of the Common Council was called to con
sider the demands In reference to certain
Band instruments, over which there has
been a dispute. Our citizens will remem
ber a subscription paper circulated a couple
years ago for money for certain instruments
and as well about $130 loaned by the Com
mon Council to the Albany City Band to
help pay for the said instruments. All the
things being done under the consideration
that the instruments should be kept in the
city. The city was duly refunded the
money advanced. It may be stated that as
well the boys otherwise paid pert of the
purchase price of the instruments. Now it
seems it is desired by other parties to start
another bend, and these instrument are
wanted in the business. In order to obtain
them the Council was asked to declare
them city property and take possession of
them. Hence the special meeting. The
Council very properly said that they had
nothing to do with it ; that it was none of
their business. This was sensible. That
body has its hands full without running city
bands, a fact nearly all of the members ap
preciate. Wonder where the sixteen year old boy

kept track of, and subsequently an agent
was sent to Nebraska, who purchased her
for $100 and brought her back on the cars

that great and Increasing interest is being

which the people of this county arc to be

effort, both in manner and in substance.
Off hand, In a very distinct, well regulated
voice, It was the model address of welcome
we have heard atnn Atbanv Institute. Here
Sr
It is In full :
FELLOW ( ITIZKSs AND SCHOOL TEACHERS I
It is my pleasant task to-night to welcome
you here 5 let me do it right heartily. It
gives us much pleasure to have you with
us, and we hope you will spend the time
pleasantly and profitably In our city. Our
institute Is like a feast where each guest is
exected to bring a part of the provisions.
We hope and trust that during the few
months of our separation you have all been
gathering loaves, and have brought them
here to show your liberality by sharing
them with others. Sof while we welcome
you among us, we would have you know
that we expect something of you in return.
We want, and feel that we need encourage
ment and help, and ask that you give it to
us with unstinted hand.
In the history of every teacher there Is a
time when special attention is paid to a cer
tain study. For example, one teacher may,
during a term of school, take particular In
terest In the study of geography, and may
discover certain facts which might be help
ful in teaching that study. Another may
give more than the usual amount of time to
arithmetic. Another to grammar or read
ing. There are many teachers who luive
dimculty in making proper use of some of
tlte text-books In our schools. Some do not
understand how to teach Sill's grammar.
The subject matter Is mi differently arrang
ed from the books formerly used that we
are bothered and perplexed. Others can
not account for the lack of consistency in
some of the solutions of the examples given
In Brook's arithmetic. Now te! those who
have paid special attention to these studies
explain them to the younger workers In tlte
school rssom, and so 'help on educational In
terests. We have known of good teacher
who have come to our Institute meetings to
lUten to what wa said and go nwir think
ing their own method better than any pre
sented. Yet they would not be persuaded
to give one idea which would he a help to
some one else. Ikies thU mean a little sel
fish ? 80, with due appreciation of the In
telligence expressed in the face before us,
we would urKe upon one and all the neee
sity of taking an active part in the meeting
if thev are to be successful. Let u be
prompt and regular in attendance so far as
it is possible, thus showing that we are
truly In earnest, in our work. Again let
me express my pleasure and pride in having
vou In our mklt, and wUh that each one
here may find something which will be a
help In after work, so that we may say we
have not come here in vain. Welcome,
everyone.

State School Superintendent McElroy then
delivered an address on "The Promotion ot
Good Reading in the Public Schools." It
was full of tlioughts which should be digest
ed by every teacher present. It showed In
new terms what the teacher can do, if de
termined, towards building up a taste for
first-class literature, for which the great
amount of vicious literature of the day,
shows a necessity. The teacher should
regulate the private reading of the student,
and should keep a weekly record of each
one. Every school should nave a library
though a smalt one. It should be backed
by a good one at home, and a public one
for the city. The speakers expose of the
subject matter of the current literature o
the day was a fine one, indicating how well
he was familiar with the topic.
A male quartet, "The Soldier's Chorus,'
was rendered in a fine manner by Messrs
Irvine, Brush, Fortmiller and Awbrey.
Prof Thos VanScoy, of the Willamette
University, delivered a very thoughtful,
solid, address, on "Internal Educational
Work." A svnoosis of it could not do it
-r a
justice. It was kernel all the wrfy through
and was generally appreciated for its splen
did thoughts.

Rev T G Brownson, of Albany then en
tertained the Institute with an address on
the subject of "The Teacher's Consecration
to his Work." The lecture was carefully
prepared, well delivered, and highly appre
ciated. The point was well made that
whether the teacher will or not, yet he does
mold the character of his pupils and the
only question is what shall that molding
and character bs ? They will be what the
life of the teacher Is. The teacher should
be thoroughly consecrated to his work
Should be enthusiastic, earnest. The teach
or will then have a genuine Interest In every
pupil. This leads the teacher to study into
and adopt the lest methods of teaching.
These he wil! gather up at Institutes. The
teacher will thus be held to a rigid system
of self culture, developing mental power
and storing the mind with valuable facts
for future use.
Supt E B McElroy discussed the question
"Are County Institutes Legal." The law
does not require them nor are teachers
bound to attend, but professionally they are
bound.
Prof Walker asked if it would not be well
to petition the Legislature to pass n law
making them obligatory upon Countv Su-
crtntcndents and teachers.
Supt IC B McElroy then discussed "Man
ners in Schools." The teacher should be
the Itest example himself of manners In
school, 'lite good manners and politeness
taught In schools Is u life work. The con
duct of the pupil on the street or at church
Is a sure Index to the character of his In
struction in hi school. The lecture was
instructive and listened to with much in
terest Prof J B Hughes presented the
subject of"Credlt Marks and Roll of Honor"
In an entertaining manner.
