The Baker City Keveille contains the following for fact: "Never patronize a business man to the extent of one dollar who is afraid to advertise. Such business men are a draw-tack to any village, city or community, and for 'my part I shall continue to pass them by. The above came from the lips of a prominent and quite wealthy randier ot tins vicinity yesterday, and he spoke a very pretty truth, for we never knew a business man who absolutely refused to advertise, that was generous enough to be Honest witn his customers or could cope with com petition. A lady found a horse shoe, and wishing for good luck, placed it under ner pillow witn lier laise teetn. in tne morning in the hurry of dressing she stilistitttted the shoe 'for the teeth and wore it for some time before the mistake was discovered. Our exchanges are penetrating the alxive on some neighboring city, filling in the blank with the city they wish to advertise, and yet how riduculoue. Jokes are all right ; but impossibilities can not make them funny. Exaggerations some times do. THURSDAY AFTERNOON SESSION.

Mr McDonald has succeeded 111 getting a good library at Brownsville. Supt Curl called for the expression of the institute whether each district should have a library. Said that he had cor responded with parties who will furnish liooks at 20 per cent discount. Profs Wright and Baker insisted that teachers should use good English in presence of pupils in connection with their reading. Prof Garland's lirst work was to get an organ for school.

Mr Egan works among the old people and gets a leep interest in the work of entertain ments. Language J 1! Leathennan. of Wood- burn schools, read a paper of marked abil ity, commencing with early childhood he traced a gradual development to per fection. Technical grammar should be laid aside until a considerable develop ment of the pupil's mind is made. Child ren should be taught to write letters to intimate friends, rather than to write on ohstrusive subjects. MissGodlev thought teachers should commence teaching lan guage when children are very voting. Mrs thrall said every lesson should he u lan guage lesson anil thought it a waste of tune to have pupils print their lessons. Mr Egan is 111 favor of printing.

Teachers preparation, bv Prof Walker, principal of public schools. Deficiency of organization and meth ods were pointed out by Prof Walker, and he showed clearly that a dally ,dry routine 111 teaching is detrimental to the best interests of the pupil. A due ap preciation of the dignity of tho calling of a teacher will contribute largely to his success. A teacher must be in Bym- fiathy with his pupils in onler to be in tearty sympathy w ith his profession. FRIDAY AFTERNOON. Music, by Miss Robinson's class, com prised of a part of her pupils.
