Pursuant to a call of County School Superintendent R. P. Goin a local teachers' institute was held at the Eddyville schoolhouse last Saturday. A goodly number of Lincoln county's teachers, many school patrons and visitors attended. Among the teachers were, Superin tendent and Mrs. R. P. Goin and Miss Addie Harrison, Toledo; Miss Ena Stont, Yaquina; Miss Hester Hill, Ona; C. L. Knapp Elk City; Miss Lillie Miller, Pioneer; Miss Mamie Wakefield and C. D. Wil son, Chitwood ; Miss Hampton and Miss Ross, Eddyville. The train carrying the visitors from the west arrived at Eddyville about 9 o'clock, and after a half hour of social chat, making ac quaintances, etc., Superintendent Goin called the meeting to order. Before getting down to the business of the convention a song service was held, with Miss Maggie Hamp ton presiding at the organ. The balance of the forenoon was taken up with regular institute business which was entertaining and instruc tive both to the teachers and the visitors. Language, Arithmetic, Geography and monthly reports were the principal topics discussed. Here Superintendent Goin proved himself the printer's friend by de claring his desire that the county have monthly report cards printed for the use of all schools in the county, instead of having the teachers buy their own report cards from some outside stock house. Immediately after the meeting was called to order people from the sur rounding country began to arrive and by 12 oclock the schoolhouse was well filled. At 12 o'clock it was announced that as soon as tables could be spread dinner would be ready. And, 'such a dinner! But a few minutes were needed to arrange a table the entire length of the sell-Miiiiouse. and it was loaded down with all the good things im aginable. It appeared as though every good housewife in the whole neighborhood vied with her neighljor in not only cooking the liest but nlso in bringing the most. Eddy ville surely holds the championship of the world for cooks. Fifty peo ple ate dinner and there was ample for three times that number. Im mediately after dinner all were as sembled by Mr. wilson for a photo graph. At 1 o'clock the assembly was again called to order. Almost the entire afternoon was devoted to the discussion of School Laws and the proposed amendments of same. Superintendent Goin urged the school patrons and teachers to ask our representatives to 'support the amendments that will lie presented before the next session of the Legis lature. Mr. Goin Is a sticker for better salary for teachers and he sees no reason why the rural teach er should not recieve a salary in proportion . to ' the salary paid to city teachers. School libraries was a topic thai brought forth much earnest discussion. The meeting adjourned at four o'clock to give the visitors time to catch the west bound train for their homes. All present voted this one of the J t ., S.5?'. 5 WUUIJ MKILll OWl.lllllJ' Ul 111 educationally. The people of Eddyville will al ways be remembered by the visitors as being past masters i n the art of entertaining. Much credit for the success of the institute is due the host, Miss Hampton, the local teacher, who made every one feel at homo. Tom Horning went to Otter Rock Tuesday.
