f The afternoon, session ; ' was begun
pmmptly at 1:30 p. m. : &mg, "Kree
Jom's Flag." .
Prof. S. Y. Gillam took the platform,
the subject for discussion being 'Peda
gogy of Reading and language." The
speaker' bean his discussion by asking
a number of questions. He began by
supposing he were thinking of an ani
mal. J A number'. of j amusing answers
were glveh. lie elicited the fact! that
ihere are four means of communication
or language , powers, . viz;, voice, ear,
hand, and eye. Two organs are for re
'ptlonr two for expression The print
ing press Is a great hand, giving out to
the civilization' of the world. A circle
was 'drawn and the four powers map
ped out. a quadrant representing a
part. 'This represents a perfect man,
and education is to train all of the
powers. 'Some of usVare very defective
In ne or more of those point. The
savage uses only the ear and voice, but
as soon as he begins to use the jhand
as n medium of expresrlon, he. ceases
to bo a savage. In the first days in
school the child exhibits ( mostly ihe
savage side of his nature.'i If we real
ize this fact ai a, teacheri we should
thank God and take-courage. We. are
to do our best to develop the added
virtues of an education. ; ,;.
Superintendent-Rlgler followed in a
discussion on '"Primary Reading.;. He
took up the mere matter of word call
ing as a means of expression. This is
the first work In schooL The . word
method is the one In general use. The
method was not argued. When one
sees' the Mford "goat the process is not
the same s In the spoken word. The
written' word, suggests tbe spoken lan
guage. The' child does not know that
a "wordIs composed of a number of dif
ferent elements. This you are to Teach
then to do. Concert work Is .to fix
things. Do your Individual work first.
The word "chair," pronounced ch-a-r,
was taken as an example.:1 The phonic
elements of words were taken up and
pronounced slowly. ' Follow this plan
by the blending of these elements in
wholes. Reserve a portion of the black
ooarcf as a sound board. Write. ' th
consonants and short vowels on fhe
tioard for drills. Do this persistently.
Do not use any diacritical marks- the
first year in school.., When the conson
ants are well known, then ,the mldifi-
catlons of vowels are to be taught. At
this time use the diacritical marks; for
how shall he know the separate sounds
without themT The force of .a silent
"e" at the end of a, word Is to give a
previous vowel a long sound. They
may have learned Ithe names off the
letters before coming to school, f We
m.ik use of any former knowledge
which the pupil has. I would no t use
diacritical marks at this stage of the
work. f - -. ' l ; . . .
After recesSvMr. Gillam came to the
platform and began the discussion of
the "Different Kinds of Maps, and the
Pedagogic Significance of Each, There
are four kinds of maps used In school.
The reference map, 'outline map, relief
map and diseeted map are the four
in use. The outline, map is for recita
tion and not for study. The reference
map for study, not for recitation. The
relief maps are good, but expensive.
The dissected map has long been recog
nized as an educational means, but has
been mostly used In the nursery. There
are.several things to be taught In a
map. Position, direction, .distance,
scale.' form, area, and comparative area
are the principal things to be taught.
We learn to recognise a map, not only
by Its form, but also its position. Color
and interior structure will be associ
ated by the pupit. ; Florida stands out

Morning
ENTIRH DAY SPENT IN AUDITING
CLAIMS BILLS AGGREGATING
$1,544.1? ALLOWED UPON THE
. ROAD AND H IG HWAY ACCOUNT
LONG LIST OF CLAIMS. j -
(From 'Thursday's Daily.)-
The Marion county commissioners
court convened In the regular Novem
ber term yesterday and remained ; In
session all day. and the entire day was
devoted to the auditing of bills. The
road and highway account was taken
up and bills were audited and allowed,
in that account alone, amounting f to
1.544. 12 in the aggregate, and there
are quite' a number yet to be": consid
ered. It i? thought that the court will
devote today and tomorrow to the aud
iting of bills, of which there is an un
usually large grist. ' "
Although a great number of claims
were allowed during yesterday's ses
sion, owing to the great amount! of
wprk which the court has to dispose
of. , to avoid continuous and annoying
interruptions, the court, several months
ago, made an order to the effect that
no warrants would be issued in pay
ment of claims' until the proceedings
were complete and the journal signed,
therefore the following claims allowed
yesterday will not be paid until Friday
or Saturday) of this week. " --

Plea For ths Hired Girl.
In Iorii:ig over the Statesman's
clasrsintd ads and through th adver
tUlng t'oiunin.i of other nwppapcrB. it
ullj b- nollcej that women are In de
mand for domestic service. - This Is
plainly Apparent from th-fact thsit they
ire . advertisH for In this public way.
Arlde from this indication, it Is a fact
that a gltl Js "hard Jo gnt." as " Ihe
phrase 1, for household ser !, and It
may occur to one, why : Is thl? W'hj
do thopc In n-cd of such sssjstance
havp In nk- IlirnKrli th r.llli'Ir tirlnlF
Vor It?
Several renins probably may b
given, ftomr yiuirg woinn do not wish
to go away from home "for such pur
poses. Sme are b-ishful among stran
gers. Home do nt wish to Incur ' a
certain dr-gree cf responsibility In the
household ef another, feeling pcrhnps,
incompetent to do sj. Some, pt-fHtips,
feel it a humbling of their pride, a sort
of -"coming flown" of crsonal dignity
"to work out." Jthers, it may be. do
not want a bo. over them In the kitch
en and dining room but mother and
sister, and come are too-ouRht I to say
It? indolent to tatte proper interest In
household duties; they do not like to
swep at)1 dust and wash dishes, etc.
Now,- I am of the' strong conviction
that the-re Is no vocation more respect
able and worthy than" that of the so
called "hired; girl," snrl all things con"
sldeVed, it Iss a rule, fairly remuner
ative. ;. Some of our youthful fair sex some
times gt the-Jiar.y idea that thy have
a "mission" in life, that there Is a sta
tion for them to fill somewhat 'Above
the Tank and file of this work-a-day
world. Sublime .delusion, this. In th
casesof nearly all such. A life on the
st age. histrionic or musical, has Us
glamors to the uninitiated, and the
other "open doors" professional and
otherwise,, to women, while useful and
worthy, are pretty well filled with the
passers-ln. The life of the lady clerk
is one of weariness and nerve fatigue,
not generously paid. The vocation of
the stenographer and typewriter, while
useful, of course, is nt of necessity an
oren portal fo social distinction nnd
influence for our diiughttrs and sisters,
and. In my opinion. Is quite, oversbid
owed by the, gim who can c'ok well and
healthfully, and 'who can tidy up the
rooms and who knows ho to ke-p Jhe
little empire of the home swet, whole
some and Inviting. Kay what you will,
the girl the young lady who can do
all this stands a most cxcHP-nt chanc
of. In due time, ruling over a txniso
hold of her own. - A man Is attracted by
a cleaA, tnteilla-r-nt woman who can
make good llsnlts and rolls, who enn
cook a beef U-ak i Just right and' who
will keep h dirt swept from undT th
stove and beds, w ho will V -p her hfnd
combed, and who will lie clan and In
viting in person, dress snl domestic
urroundlngs. x
, Yes, all honor" to the girl who "works
out," who puts her Intelligence and hr
best efforts Into housekeeping. Thre
Is no more worthy vocation. Hut "hir
ed girls are hirl to ketTi. I have
heard. Why. Is this?. Perhaps the
Statesman will gfant sio- tn th !n
who hire domestic help" to .state Jhelr
opinions, and also to tbi girls who are
hired. I , It.
