TILLAMOOK Teacher’s Annual Institute. i r< ■ a I I 4 z I ! The annual institute for Tillamook County was held in this city this week. There was much interest shown by the teachers and a general expression that they had been helped and directed in their work in a very substantial way, from the many val­ uable lessons delivered by the in­ structors who are the leading educa­ tors of the State and nation: J. A. Churchill, Supt. Public Instruction, Miss Florence Fox, Specialist in Pri­ mary Flducation, U. S. Bureau of Ed­ ucation, Washington, D. C„ M. S. Pittman, head of Department Rural Supervision, Monmouth, Oregon, 11. C. Seymour, State Leader Boys’ and Girls’ Industrial Club Work, Corvall­ is, Oregon, l-'red C. Aver, P. H. D. Specialist in School Administration, Eugene, Oregon, Mrs. Harriet H. Heller, Assistant Supt. Boys’ and Girls’ Aid Society, Portland, Oregon, R. W. Kirk, Supt. of the schools of Tillamook City, Charles H. Jones of the Oregon Teachers Monthly made up-a list hardly equalled by the w ork­ ers of any former institute. Superintendent Churchill always gives the teachers such instructions as will be of the greatest use to them in their school duties, and his ad­ dresses at this institute were foin- posed of expressions and sentences that were entirely instructive, helpful and applicable. Miss Fox met all the expectations that had been anticipated from one coming here from the Federal Bureau of Education. She proved her capa­ bilities and gave the institute prac­ tical things such as the teachers can make use of in their schools. She en­ deared herself to the teachers, not only by her knowledge and the pre­ sentation of helpful things, but also by her pleasantness and socialbility. Mr. Pittman has always been a fa­ vorite with the teachers of the county and his instructions and sound advice given at this institute brought forth many comments of praise front the teachers. Mrs. Heller gave messages that ex­ pressed her interest in and showed her experience with boys and girls. One could not hear Mrs. Heller with­ out having a deeper interest and greater sympathies for boys and girls and particularly those who have no parents to care for and protect them. Mrs. Heller's talks were very helpful to our teachers, particularly those who are now in the work. Dr. Ayer gave valuable instructions on school administration. Among other things of importance, what he gave on grading, marking and record­ ing of student’s standing will be of much help to the inexpreienced or be­ ginning teachers. Superintendent Kirk’s talk on “School Room Dcscipline” presented many things that are difficult for the beginning or many cases even ex­ perienced teachers to act for the best upon. This talk was greatly enjoyed by the teachers who were in attend­ ance on the afternoon of the last day and we regret that every teacher in the county did not hear the sugges­ tion and advice along the lines of discipline spoken from experience and practiced by Mr. Kirk in this ad­ dress. Mr. H. C. Seymour. State Leadet for Club Work, presented his subject in such a way that every teacher should know just how to begin work Seymour with the students, Mr. knows his work and we believe the teachers now know their duty with reference to the club work and we hope that all will put in practice wh it Mr. Seymour outlined, beginning at once and carrying to completion by the close of school next spring. Erwin Harrison, Secretary of the Fair Board, and J. E. Youel spoke briefly to the teachers, the former with reference to the County Fair and the School Co-operation, and the latter on matters of importance to the teachers to be considered at the com­ ing election. The musical portion of the program was skillfully carried out under the skillful supervision and leadership of Miss Hazel McKown and Miss Mabel Goyne. The teachers' reception afforded the entertaining portion of the insti lute and the teachers of Tillamook City ar< worthy of the vote of thanlFs extended them from the rural teach ers as well as the complimentary clause in the resolutions. There were more than one hundred teachers enrolled at this institute, be­ sides many ex teachers and several prospective ones. We wish to express 014 apprecia­ tion to all who participated both in labor and attendance to make the in­ stitute what it was. W. S. Buel. County Supt. , | Î i 1 ' ! the adoption of this measure at the coming election. V. Thia being the last institute that Supt. Buel will hold institute, desire to express our appreciation of the courteous and fair treatment, the strong support and good advice that he has so generously given us and other teachers who have taught in this County under him. We hope that the tuture holds in store for him a prosperous and happy life in whatever course he may choose. We also wish to thank the County Fair Board of Tillamook County for the careful consideration given the schools of the Coun y in awarding the prizes for school exhibits and other en- couragement given.
