RE
TEACHERS ARE TAUGHT
Large Attendance of Instructors at
Polk County Annual institute.
al
The Polk County Teachers' Ann
Institute opened Wednesday morning
with an attendance exceeding that of
any institute neretorore nela in this
county. One hundred and thirty
teachers registered at the opening
session, ana many more arrived aur
ing the day. Little time was devoted
to the opening exercises, and the
teachers and instructors were soon
earnestly engaged in the active work
oi tne institute.
The instructors are J. H. Ackerman
State Superintendent of Public In
struction : W. G. Hartranft. School
Superintendent of Kiiior County
Wasu. : 13. U. Bessler. President, and
C. A. Biie, Principal of the Training
Department, of the Oregon State
Normal School. The corps of instruc
tors is especially strong this year, and
County Superintendent C. L. Starr is
to be congratulated upon the success
of his efforts in securing such efficient
men to take cnarge oi tne work of the
institute.
J. xi. Ackerman is justly rated as
one of the strong men in educational
work on the Pacific Coast, and his
good work in behalf of the Oregon
public schools is recognized and
appreciated by parents and teachers
in all parts of the state.
superintendent w. u. iiartranit. or
Seattle, is an ideal teacher active,
earnest and progressive and has
made an enviable reputation through
out tne JSortnwest as a successful
institute instructor. That his work is
appreciated by the people of his home
county is shown by the fact that he
nas been twice elected to his present
onice in tne race or strong factional
opposition within his party ranks.
The excellent public schools of King
county, Washington, are an eloquent
tribute to nis ability as a modern
educator.
President Bessler and his able assis
tant, Prof. C. A. Bice, of the Oregon
State Normal School, are familiar
with every detail of institute work, the
training or teachers heing the chosen
profession of each. Both are thor
oughly practical in their methods.and
their suggestions and advice are of
great value to every teacher.
Tracy Staats occupies his usual
position at the secretary's desk, and
performs his duties in a manner
highly satisfactory to all. The regis
tration of teachers and recording of
the proceedings keep nim busily em
ployed at every session.
Superintendent Hartranft's subjects
were "Primary Beading," "The Reci
tation," and "Opportunities of the
Rural Teacher." In his talk on "The
Recitation," the principal thought
was a quotation from Dr. Arnold, the
great teacher at Rugby, who said : "I
always prepare my lessons in ad
vance, because I want my pupils to
drink from a running stream instead
of a stagnant pool." The quotation
strongly impressed upon the minds of
the teachers the importance of pre
paring themselves for their daily
work. He had much to say on the
art of questioning, and sought to
emphasize the fact that when a class
tails to give the proper attention, the
teacher and not the pupils are usually
to blame. In his talk on "Oppor
tunities of the Bural Teacher, he
urged all teachers who hesitate to ad
mit that they are teaching in the
country schools to remember that they
are teaching 97 per cent of the success
ful business men of the coming
generation.
President Ressler had "Geography"
for his subject, and the manner in
which it was presented was highly
instructive to all. His talk was full
of practical ideas, and the teachers
will go back to their schools better
prepared to teach this important
branch or study than ever before.
Professor Rice spoke on "Arithmetic"
and "Methods."
A large crowd filled the courtroom
Wednesday evening to hear Superin
tendent Hartranft's lecture on "Steps
in Human Progress." The talk was
entertaining, and was highly appre
ciated. A good musical program was
rendered. Miss Elizabeth M. Pollock
favored the audience with a reading
that won for her many compliments
ana a hearty encore.
Owingtotheimportantelection news
And the heavy demands of advertisers
upon our space, we shall not attempt
to give a complete account of the pro
ceedings of the institute this week,
but will give it the attention it do
serves in another issue. The institute
proper will close this afternoon with
an address by Superintendent Acker
man. The school officers institute will be
held tomorrow. An interesting pro
gram has been prepared, and a large
attendance is expected. Thomas W.
Brunk, G. W. Myer and S. L. Stewart
are among the directors who will
speak, and Superintendents Acker
man and atarr will take part In the
discussions.

Life is not always a bed of roses for

victim of misfortune and his case is
about the saddest on record. Here is
the story of his trouble in his own
words :

our key to some parties to go into the
office for a few things they had left.
Sweethearts only see themselves, so
they overlooked a small dog. and he

A REMARKABLE CURE
Of
Deafness by Dr. Darrin at the

For the past ten years I have
gradually grown deaf from the effects
of catarrh and abscesses in the ear.
One ear was totally deaf when I went
under Dr. Darrln's treatment and the
other nearly so. I am now happy to
say I can hear in both ears nearly as
well as ever in my life. I was very
skeptical about being cured by Dr.
Dr. Darrin, but he has treated me
successfully, and I am glad to say so.
