mtinieation in last weeks issue and
signed IJejKirter?
First, then wrmit mo to say that
ut the organizing of tho teacher's
institute a motion was made to up-
! point rejwrters for the Ouant Co.
!NKWsand the Long Creek Kagle,
when one of the teachers arose and
informed the chairman that "it was
understood that the Chant Cor.vrv
Nkws had a reporter," therefore the
institute procieded to apjxiint a re
iorter for the Kagle.
Now, this hi If appointed reporter
deceived the luiirmau by leading
linn to Udu ve that the editor of the
i Nkws had appointed his own tenor
: tcr, and on returning to her home,
' it scorns that she also deceived the
editor of the Nkwk in leading him
1 to believe that the institute had ie-
! mired him, all of which we had no
i intention of doing,
Secondly, the statement made by
this self-apjHtiulcd roHrter that the
subject of my discourse on Tuesday
, evening waa the incoiiiH'tency of
( irtuit county s teacliors, is u jki.xi
tive well modesty forbids me to
say it. The subject of my discourse
was divided as follows: First, the
reading of a iortion of the proceed
ings of the State Teachers Associa
tion held at Sah in last July. Sec
ond, the duty of the board of direc
tors. Third, the relation of the tin-
, pils and parents to our public
schools, hourth and hist the duty
of the teacher. In speaking of the
latter I said ami still say that 7ft
1 er cent, of the failures of our teach
ers is lor the want of order, discip
line and zeal :i the part of the
! teachers, and not their inootnputon
cv (o leach the ruiuired branches.
'I hirdlv, this self-appointed reporter
will allow me to suggest that it is
not an exhibition of good taste to
not claim to know it all and may
have made some mistakes at the
institute, but this will be readily
understood when I tell you that I
was III years old the next day after
the close of the institute, and many
times during tie- week 1 was re
minded of the quotation: "At
