The fall session of this association will
commence its session. on the last Monday
Of October, in the town of Woodsfeld, at
o'clock, P. NJ.
II may be important to state some of the
leading objects contemplated by this asso-
citation. 1t is even asked by teachers,
What good can result from it? We offer
a few reflections upon this subject:
We live in an age Of progressons-we
are no longer satisfied with the old sys-
TENS. The past is only known a matter
of history, from which we derive the ad-
van,ages of the experience Of our fathers.
We respect the labors OF our ancestors,
but need not necessarily adhere to their
systems, especially those that belong to the
sciences, arts and mechanics. Books on
the sciences-particularly those designed
for the school room-labor to develop the
reason for every process. no longer regard
ing man as a machine. hut as progress
i've, thinking. rational being. 1t is the OBJ
iect, therefore, OF teachers associations.

of analysis and induction in the modern
soiences-to exercise teachers in those

and demonstrations, lucidly explained

before his class with confidence and ease

high aspirations, and Ultimate triumph
over the various difficulties presented in
the recitation room. 1t is otherwise when
the teacher feels himself inadequate to The
task. The quick discernment of the pupi
discovers the incompetency OF the teacher
and consequently loses respect and conf
dence for him. u
tits earnestly anticipated that this ses
sion of the Institute will be we'll and cred
itably represented. Let no ordinary con
tingency prevent the teachers Of this coun
ty from attending. A friendly interchang
between teachers is desirable, to accom-
