The Association met and waa called to
order by the President, Mlsa Maltle L.
Powell.
Roll call-Mlaa Ada Ir was tardy.
Miss D'Aroy appolntod critic. Home dis
cussion In regard to tardiness and absence.
Mr. Randall suggested that tho teachers
confer with each other In regard to Sohool
Journals. He thinks toachers should each
tike a different Jonrnnl, and then exchange
with each other.
On motion, Mr. Stooves, Mr. Randall and
Ml'a Smith were appointed to attond to the
matter of School Jonrnalfl.
The subject selected for dlsoussion at tho
last mooting, "Reeolvod, Tht Corporal pun-
lihment Is wrong, and anouiu noc oo ooun
tenanoed in our schools," was then taken up.
All the teachenr took part In the dUcnsalon.
MlasBmith and Mr. Steeves read papers.
A great deal, of Interest, waa said for and
against corporal punishment. It was gen
erally conceded that If children were prop
erly trained and governed at home, there
wonld bo no need of Whipping or other vlo-
lont punishment of children In school. But
as thoy do not receive proper home training,
It bolng a woll known faot that many chit
dron do not obey tholr parents noticeably
tho mothors It la almost Imposslblo to gov
ern u school without tho uso of corporal pun
ishment. Teachers believed to suspend
children from, school; Iho wont thing that
can bodono. They go. on tho ntrcets, nilu
glo with bad company nnd contract vlcloux
liiblU that follow thorn through life.
They thought tho Slalo nbould establish n

Whllo Uio Capital Guards wore ovor in

Tho-Rov. Mr. Bower addressed us from tbo
14th chapter, 22d and 23d verses or St. John.
Eloquently aud beautifully ho portrayed tho
sweet communion and fellowship all can
have with tho Father, who love, obey and
keep his commandments, At tho cIoho of
bis remarks another goutleman spoko
for a few minutes, after which prayer
and sonio beautiful hymns. And as
wo heard iho aweet yolcos of the outside
world blending with our own, it caused
many of our hearts to tako a retrospective
glance of other times when things were not
as now. Atthoolosoof tun meeting many
of tbe ladle) and gentlemen came forward,
'shaking hands with us and speaking worda
or sympathy and hope, which will beartbolr
impress out into future years, from whenoe
we can look back upon ono little oasis,
worthy of remembrance, that bloomed for
ns to-day.
In conclusion, we would thank our officers
for tbe privileges kindly granted us upon
this ocoaslon, and especially to Mrs. N. M.
Thornton and our kind organist, and Mrs.
Nettle Carter and all others whoso coming
added to the pleasures of tbe day.
