The Morrow County Teachers' Institute convened on Wednesday of last week, and was in sebsion three dayH, The enrollment was tiftyone. Every teacher in the county, except three, was in atten dance. The work done by the in structors was prflctical and helpful, The teachers, without exception, expressed themselves as highly pleased with the work given. Prof. L. R. Traver, of the State Normal School at Monmouth, was well known to the teachers, having been in the institutes of former years, and the teachers expected much from him. Thev were not disap pointed. Prof. L. R. Alderman of'thj State University, came to the institute a new man. His work was a delight and inspiration to all. State Superintendent Ackermau was present one day and fully sus tained his reputation for practical work Mr. C. H. Jones was as popular as in former years. He led the singing and enlivened the sessions with amusing anecdotes. The papers read by Dr. N. E. Winnird were very instructive and helpful and were fully appreciated by the teachers. .Mrs. Jennie L. Thorp gave ttiree class drills in music, illustrating her methods of teaching. The evening sessions were well attended both by the teachers and the general public. The entertain ment features of the evening pro grams seemed to be greatly enjoyed by the popple. The lecture by Prof. Traver on "The Teacher" was one which every interested in schools should have heard. If he had had more time, the lecture would have been still better. Prof. Alderman's lecture on "Chum?, Chumps, Gumps, Goops, and Spooks," was one which parents and children tuny well take to heart. That lec ture will bear fruit in this commun ity in the years to come. Superin tendent Ackerman's lecture was one which certainly interested every taxpayer and every friend of edu cation. The matters which he dis cussed will be considered by the legislative assembly at the" coming session. School Board Convention The second annual school board convention of Morrow county met at the Court House last Saturday. Fifteen districts were represented. The subject, "Heating, Lighting, and Ventilation," was first discuss ed. Dr. Winnard then read a pa per on "School Sanitation," which wbs full of timely suggestions. The discussion which followed was par ticipated in by several of the dele gates and many or the citizens present. The paper on "Co opera tion of School Boards with Henltb Officers," read by Dr. R B. Kistner, was one which every teacher, par ent and school officer in the county should have heard. It was voted to have this paper published. The q"estion of apportioning the school funds in accordance with Superin tendent Ackerman's plan as out lined in his lecture was taken up. A lively discussion followed. A resolution was adopted approving the plan, though the vote in favor was much short of being unani mous. The sense of the conven tion seemed to be that these meet ings should be held oftener than once a year, and it is 'likely that Superintendent Notson will call an other convention in the near future. Altogether, the convention was a pronounced success. W. S. CONNER Answers the Summons of Death Heart Failure Cause.
