THE DAILY ASTORTAN, ASTORIA, THURSDAY MORNING. MAY 3, 1894. TEACHERS' INSTITUTE. A Oood Attendance and Interesting Session Yesterday. The Clatsop County Teachers' Insti tute met at the high school yesterday, commencing at 9 a. m., with Superin tendent Lyman presiding. Tlio follow ing teachers were In attendance: Jennie Woodward, Melville; Huby Foster, Jewell; Bell "Wooden, Medley; Kiln. McCabe, Clifton; Maud West, Wal luskl; Lizzie White, Mary Dealey, Mln. nle Sovey, Mary Fassett, Kate Grant, Maud Bayles, Katie McKean, Nora Nlckerson, Ethel Andrews, Ilattle Sayre, Nellis Nlckerson, Lettle Lyons, Mary White, Catharine Powell, Dora Badollett Helen Dickinson, Maggie Laws, Mrs. Jennie Busey, Mrs. Carrie Krager, Mrs. Cora, Stuart, Astoria; Mr. Albert Williams, Mr. A, L. Clark, Mr. J. D. Hawes, Astoria; Mr. Sherman Case, Seaside; Mr. A. W. Prescott, Skip anon; Mr. C. C. Brower, Young's River; Mr. It. N. Wright, Astoria. The work hen opened in earnest by Prof. Lyman stating the objects of the Institute and the work to be accom plished. His remarks were forcible and practical. Miss Lizzie White then presented, as suggested by Supt. Lyman, the history of the committee of ten whose report was to be the main study of the com mittee. After this she gave a well condensed summary of their report on reading. A general discussion then ensued on a sentence contained in this report, namely, spelling should be learned in cidentally In connection with every sub jected, and not from a, spelling book. C. C. Brower thought the report par tially true, but the spelling book a good thing. J. D. Hawes then, said that he thought that spelling should be done without a text book. R. N. Wright thought not too much spelling 1b now done, and if the book were eliminated loss would be. done. Supt. Lyman thought the committee had gone too far; that spelling requires a great deal of practice from the spell ing book, as set lessons by continuity of work, and a great deal of It. A. W. Williams would stick by the spelling book. Mrs. Krager would select words from all books In connection with the reg ular spelling lesson; Mlsa Powell would have some pupil select the hardest words from all lessons and present them to the class; Miss West would combine the book and incidental work; Mlsa McKean had found that pupils could understand words, for Instance, In geography, that they could not spell, especially in the lower grades. The discussion was prolonged for quite a while and many practical points were brought out In conclusion SupU Lyman gave this summary: Spelling must not be slighted. We must first acquire tho thought, the concept, then the word to express the thought, nnrt third, tho correct form of that word. Finally, Supt. McElroy said, "Neglect no detail In school work." Mr. Williams then presented the sub ject of good order. Order means meth od, management, a certain amount of machinery. Be careful, though, not to get into a rut or groove that will des troy the life activity of the pupil. Good order means every pupil attending to his own business. Movements in the room, Into the room without clash; the school will not be more orderly than the teacher. Miss Fassett presented an excellent paper on school government: Firmness and determination essential elements; the little ones at school not Im ages but human beings, and should be treated as such; the importance of the teachers' influence; incentives to obe dience, not punishment for disobedi ence; do not advocate the self govern ment method; perfect silence not de sirable; too much cannot be snid of suitable surroundings good light, good desks, etc. As the teacher, so is the tehool. Miss West then led in the dis cussion, saying she thought the pupils should be Impressed with the fact that an annoying pupil annoys the school as much as the teacher. The subject of good order, was thoroughly ventilated and there were many valuable helps to teachers put forth. Supt. McElroy then gave a brief sum mary of the discussion. Avoid the buz zing study In the school room without good order; not enough to secure good order. It must be maintained. Institute adjourned at 12 until 1:30. The afternoon session opened at 1:30 o'clock, with a song pleasantly rendered by the high school choir, after which the little ones from Mrs. Busey'g room gave a motion song, which showed skillful training and was a good object lesson to all present. Supt. McElroy then gave an interest- in address to the teachers upon the morning subject of "School Order and School Discipline." He said teachers procrastinate; do not begin early ; enough in the term; are not persistent enough; do not watch carefully all the time; desclpllne the secret of success; see to the golnff-out and the coming in of pupils; causes of disorder; want of discretion on the part f the teacher; want of proper supervision on the school ground; do not be too dignified, but yet firm; difficulty not always with the pu pil, but the parent back of them; avoid the self-reporting eysterc; do not give too many demerit marks; it has a wrong reflex action; a wrong thing to place well trained boys and girls by the side of vicious for the sake of reforming the vicious ones; do not give too much at tention to litUe trrlfllng thingsrdar not become a chronic complainer; It i not best to detain pupils after school: police care of children by teachers after the pupil leaves school for home is a. ques tion for discretion on the part of the teacher. prof. Mf F.lrov remarks ffere full of i Interest to the teacher, and were well worth the close attention or every teacher present. Mr. Hawes then followed, naming a few elements of-disorder. Ho summar ized by saying that Inattention was the chief element of rll'Trdc Keep them busy. Sherman Case, of Seaside, suggested that If pupils became weary they be al lowed to go home give them a little more freedom. Supt. McElroy then replied to some Inquiries, and in the course of his re marks spoke of the state reform school, which, in his opinion, Is one of the best Investments Oregon ever made, and the state would be better off if she had a dozen more. Here the secret of good discipline Is hard work. Director Dealey then made some re marks In reference to the teacher's su pervision of pupils to and from school also compulsory education. Mr. Smith spoke with Interest upon this subject, and made some profitable points. Supt McElroy then entertained the teachers with an outline of plans, means and results of the educational exhibit at Chicago. The teachers listened attentively, and the professor's description was highly nrae.tlcal and full of information! The teachers regret very much that Supt. McElroy Is compelled, owing to import ant business, to return to Salem, and cannot be with them during the entire institute. He Is a live institute worker and a practical school man, and the teachers regret that he will not be with us again as state superintendent. The institute adjourned until 9 a. m. today. ABSOLUTE IERIT. No other plaster" has been produced which gains so many testimonials or hiirh value as those continuously ac corded to Allcock's Porous Plaster, and the only motive for these exceptional commendations la the fact that it. is a medicinal and pharmaceutical prepara tion of superior value. Jieware or imi tations. Ask for and Insist upon All- cock's. Brandreth's Pills are a good correc tive. KEEP UP WITH THE TIMES, don't cling to the imperfect things. Do you use cereal foods on your breakfast table? Then you need cream. Borden's Peerless Brand Evaporated Cream Is decidedly superior in richness and flavor to ordinary milk or cream. CHILDREN WHO SUFFER from scrofulous, skin or scalp dis eases, ought to be givon Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, for pu rifvine the blood. For children who are puny, paio or weak, the "Dis covery " is a tonio which builds up both flesh and strength. What is said of it lor children applies equally to adults. As an appetizing, restorative tonic. it seta at work all the processes of digestion and nutrition, rouses every organ into nat ural action, and brings back health and strength. In recovering from " grippe," or in convalescence from pneumonia, fevers, and other wasting diseases, it speedily and surely invigorates and builds up tue wnoie system. For all diseases caused by torpid liver or impure blood, as Dyspepsia and Biliousness, if it doesn't benefit or cure in every case, the money is returned. "She Looketh Well -. to the ways of her household." Yes, Solomon is right; that's what the good housekeeper everywhere does, But her ways are not always old ways. In fact she has dis carded many unsatisfactory old ways. ' Tor instance, to-day she is using the New Shortening, instead of lard. And this is in itself a rea son why "she looketh well" in another sense, for she eats no lard to cause poor digestion and a worse complexion. Cottolene is much better than lard for all cooking pur poses, as every one who has tried it declares. Have you tried it? For sale everywhere. REFUSE ALL SUBSTITUTES. Genuine made only by N. K.
