QriCK, Supc. Columbia Count'. Curtis Baird, Sept. Clackamas Cc. W. 1. Lyman, Supt. Wasliington Co. E. B. McElroy, Supt. Pub. Instruc tion. Above is the programme of the exer cises of the T-achirs' Institute as iir.st mapped out, but it was cut short a day. as the following report will show. St. Helen, Oil, May 20, 1884. Tho-Toaeher's Institute for the Fifth Judicial District convened to-day at the Methodist church. The Institute was called to order at 1 o'clock sharp by our worthy Slate Super intendent of Public Instruction, .E. B. McElroy, who prcceedc-d to lay beforea the teachers the objects cf the Institute Next came a good discussion of arith-'j inetic by LaPety, cf tcr which many, crea tions were asked by the members of the Institute, which precedent was kept up each lady or gentlemen who opened discusc.ioris submitted to a severe cross ipustioniug by the other member?. Next in order came thy subject of Composition, which was logically treated by Prof. W. D. Lyman of Forest Grove. Mr. Lyman thought that we should be gin to teach composition as the child learns to read and write, and that the child language lessons, should, all tf.nd to improve the child's expression of thought, as a store of knowledge without the pow er of expression was of little value as is the now cf language without any thought. Miss Ilolman then did honor to her self in the rendition of the song, ' The Deep, Deep Sea." Prof. N, j Davis of Forest Grove. a general discussion on What motives and incentives ought to be appealed tof Mr. Davis thought the lovo of study and the desire to do his duty wero the only true motives and incentives to study. Rev Mr. Hanna late cf Corvc.llis, thought that the motive to study should be instilled into the pupil's mind by the teachers pointing him to some nobis character. Major Adams of . the Columbian w?.s called on and gave his opinion that the teacher should stir up the ambition of the pupil, and no lack of interest would be. After paf&ing of lemonade.. by young Mr. Caples of Columbia County a recess of ten minutes was ordered. After reecas Hon. G. W. McBride avs introduced and delivered an address of welcome in well chosen words. He spoke of the . objects of Institute, work and assured the teachers that the citizens of St. Helens felt highly honored and would be greatly benefited by the work of tho Institnte. J'rof. W. W. Johnson responded by thanking the gentlemen, in the naoio of his fellow teachers and personally for his kind words of welcome. He thought 7 the teachers had not left their posts of duty and come to St. Helens for no pur pose, but that they would be fully re paid. Next in order came an address by Supt. E. B. McElroy upon the choice Literature by our Youth, which should be printed in full and read by every teacher in our State. After music by the congregation, Prof. D. W. Lyman of Forest grove delivered a grand lecturo upon the Conflict of Forces, which was truly a feast for all present. ' This closed the exercises of the day. The attendance was gooJ, there being in attendance about twenty-five teachers: The exercises of the day were inter spersed with gooJ music by the young people of St. Helens. The Institute ad journed to meet Friday at 9 o'clock A. M. One Present. Standard. SccbadDay, Friday 5Zay 30. Opened by. singing assisted by Profs. Crawford and Warren of Portland. Prayer by Prof. Warren. DISCUSSION, What motives and incentives to study ought to be appealed to ? Discussion opened by W. Wr. John son; he .said rewards and punishments should not be generally used; that prizes usually produce bal results; that the verdict of most teachers is that prizes should not be given by teachers; that a man who works for the love of knowl edge and the love of mental power will be successful, but he who works for phys ical development expecting to become a hanking clerk, a book-keeper or a school teacher in a few mouths, will become discouraged, and make p. failure;- that many people have the idea that cduca: ticn lifts men and women above work, but 5iuc.li should net be the case as an educated man or woman can better til! any position in life if educated. Prof. Crawford of Portland, said that merit cards may be properly iven to very little pupils but that there is no contest very often, as the winner ii known before the contest is begun: th it the offering of medals or book-priz es should find no plac iu the higher de partments, that means have been left in some citie3. for the purpose of giving pnzos or . medals by private persons which was perhaps proper, but that in our public school:- such motives and in centives should net be given, as his rep utation as a teacher is often made to de pend on the number and value cf the prizes given. , Prof. F. A. E. SUrr of East Portland said there was no cut and dried rule to govern him to enthuse a .choeI, but that a comtd.tent teacher who will teach telf- A reliance, who is enthusiastic, will make a success.' Prof. R. K. Warren, of Porlbnd, said that there is a principle i.i our natures which expects a reward, and that any cf us who tlo p. g'-od work m a good cause will not refuse a pri ... . wrize priven for . the greatest excellency attained there is no injustice in, that there is nothing radically wrong about : oiTerir.g prizes if they are properly dis tributed. Prof. Justus Bun.ham, of Portland, said that he agreed -with most ef Prof. Star.-'s remarks and with those of Prof. Warren with some ..slight modification, that every tealher has his way of get-' ting at the active epualities of a pupil's mind, that prizes often producq bad ef-.; fvcts from the reaction which takes place. Prof. C. VvT. Roby, cf Portland Cen tral School, said, we will never shoot very high by aiming at a mud-hole or form a good character by holding up Benedict Arnold and Aaron Burr as examples, that had given prizes but had quit it, as lie got better results and hid a clearer conscience, that giving cards or presents is proper if not given us a prize, but that the giving of prizes was appealing to tho lower nature of his pupila ; Miss Marietta Meserve also said she had given prizes, but had quit it and ap pealed to everything around u? that would interest the pupils, that our girls should be taught that there is some use fulueis for them beyond school life, that Jack, the Giant Killer and bear stories should not be told by teacher to inter est pupils but- use higher, better and more moral stories to interest them and keep them from regarding the school room as a prison, - Hon. Fi A. Moore and Dr. Arthur Moore offered a few remarks, Judge Moore asking to be excused until later in the day. Dr. Moore approved ot giv ing prizes to little ones. , Prof. C. W. . Roby s?iid that good de portment is necessary in. a school-roouo, and. that corporal pumshmeni is a cor rect principle to resort, to when necessa- ; Prof. Steers Paid his first experience was so discouraging in giving prizes that he never expected to resort to them a- gain. Recess of 10 minutes. . ''Exercises opened with a solo by Miss Helena, Ilolman: Title, No Sir. (Ap plause.) : Mr. Wm. B. Dillard, of St. Helens, read an essay on the Teacher's Duty to his State which was well prepared and delivered: it showed that though he was not himself a teacher, he appreciat ed the teacher's work, and knew what a teacher's duty to his state was. He was well applauded. ' A discussion of methods of teaching grammar by Prof. F. A. E. Starr., Trof. C. W. Roby gave a shcrt lec ture on teaching History. Ho suid that History is not half taught unless it is associated with geography, and that in many schools it is not so. taught, that Gecgiaphy, which is locatibn of place, is uninteresting unless a history of events is taught in connection with it, that the geography of our own country is unin teresting unless we teach the history of events and biographies of important per sonages. The most, important result of history is the desire created in the minds of pupils to read histories biographies, and good works, preventing the crea tion of a taste for pernicious literature, that there is a better change to teach morality from the history of the live3 of noble men and that we should not reach pupils to. regard such men as Washing ton and Lir.coln as clemi-gods but that they were only good men and worthy of being imitated in their good works. Institute re-nssembled at 1.30 P. M. The discussion of history continued by Prof. 1. N. LalTerty; he stated that where he had sufficient time he prefeired written review:;. Prof. N. Davis, of Forest Grove, said ho had no trouble in arousing an inter est in a pupil if he was in his charge for uny length of time. He commends the use of Peter Parley's History, supple mentinsr it orallv in such a wav as to in terest pupils, that the tqarher who docs not work nor requiie. work from his pu pils will be a great failure, that he finds that a written review U easier and more expedient; as it greater r'.niount.cf work can be accomplished in "a shcrt time, that facts and dates should be taken from books in writing lessons, but use as much originality as possible. Prof. T..1I. Crawford said he had not taught History for several years, but that he oh. erved that the greatest troub le was that pupils commit answers to memory, this sho:kl be obviated by the teacher. Prof. Warren likes any methodjittter than memorizing. Prof. Steers spoke of object method Gf teaching History, giving many practi cal examples of how to apply It. Mi? 3 Marietta Meserve insisted on the. ether ladies speaking freely as the fate of the .ladies was to be decided on next Monday and they did not want the L'entieuicn to think them uninterested in educational work. A discussion on Aiithmctic opened byj Prof. Ju.'.tu urnh.m;he gave very lu-ci-rl explanations of methods of teaching primary pupiU the operations of Simple. Subsl faction and Addition, the combi nations of numl ers interesting to pupils. He was questioned by Jrof.. Lafierty, Steers, Miss Meserve and others. His answers we:cp:ain, to the point, antl satisfactory; many fine thoughts and sug g?sucns were produced which cannot fail to be cf great use, especially to young lf-achers. The accomplished Solo si tiger Miss Ilolman vg a beautiful song; title Sail ing. Recess of 10 minute?;. Opened with music by the Rainier Band. ,. - reeitation was well delivered bv Miss Meserve- on Temperance, title Who 13 to.

Meserve is an enthusiastic and successful school-teacher. An excellent lecture was delivered by Pres. J. F. Ellis on the subject of Ele mentary Instruction in the Science of Civil Government, an effort worthy of the head cf such a great institution as the Pacific University..
