Teachers Association.
Mr.. EDIToH-For some time past
have looked in the Journal as it made
its weekly appearance, for the proceed
inas of The Teachers Association, :"
which was held in CoudersDort in Nov.
last; but I have looked in vain, and on
inquiry, have ascertained that the Sec
retary of that meeting has failed to pre-
pare an account of Its doings for the press.
Now. being a member Of that body, and
desiring that our citizens should know
what we are doing to advance the cause
of education, have prepared the follow
ing report for publication:
Pursuant to adjournment, the AsSoci-
alton met in the Court House il Couders-
port, at nine o'clock y. NJ, Nov. 18th,
1888. The President and Secretary be-
ing absent the Superintendent called the
members to order, when Mr.. VI Q. Cros-
by was elected President, and Mr.. Wm.
G;;lliland Secretary, pro h0'.
I Rev. J. Hendrick, Chairman of the
Committee OF arrangements, made par
tial report, to the effect that the morn
ing aud part of the afternoon be deyot-
cd to teachers drills, and the remainder
of the afternoon be taken up in discuss
ing such subjects rs the members saw fit
to propose; the evening session to be oc-
cupied in reading Essays, and IN discus
sion. The Co. Superintendent then pro-
posed the following order'tor the ''driYiS," p"
viz Morning Session - lst, Written
Arithmetic; 2ud intellectual Arithme-
tic; Sd, Reading; 4th, Orthography.-
Afternoon Scssion-lst, Geography; 2ud,
English Grammar.
Throughout the meeting the Co Su-
pcrintcndcut tool, charge Of the "driil>
in which he was occasionally assisted bY
other members the Assuciation
After the drills" were through for the
day. Mr.. :. :. Grccn,uan offered the fol-
lowing resolution. viz: "ResoIved, that
whispering in school, should basuppress-
ed, under all circumstances" After a
short discussion, it was laid upon the ia
bic; when the Association adjourned till
seven O'Clock p. NJ.
Eraiag-Net at the appointed hour.
Prayer, by Rev. y STYLES; music by the
choir. The Co. Superintendent then adj
dressed the Association upon the duties
Of Teachers. An Essay was then read
by Miss Caroline tIawIey; subject, The
ProPrlety Of giving Rewards Ad-
i0urncd.
TUESDAY, 10Th.
Met at nine O'Clock \. NJ. Prayer by
Rev. J. ueudrick; music by the choir
The Written Arithmetic drilI was con
Quoted by Miss \. j Spaiford, who
brought out some points that every
teacher would do well 70 remember; es-
pecially the one about spelling out the
numbers in Addition, a., two and three
are Ave and seven are twelve, etc. She
strongly recommended the plan OF read
ing them of. a., two, five, twelve etc.
In the driH in Geography, several
teachers gave their method OF conducting
the first recitation IN that branch. The
most approved plan seemed TO be to CON-
mence with the pupils own nei@hb0rhood.

Although 10 a carlcss locker on many
Of our exercises might have seemed dull
and uuiHtere>ting, yet they were 10 more
20 than is the preparatory drilling for any
other calling. And | thiuk am safe in
saying that no teacher ieft without being
better prepared for the duties Of his pro-
fgssionthau when he came. But yet many
did not see I'll 10 meet with Us, and give
Us the bene.5 Of their experience. This
should not b. am well aware that our
Association /, not absolutely the best
means Of preparing teachers for their pro-
fcS>ion: bat the best cannot aIwas be COM
aanded by tie many Aud such is the
case with the Potter County school teach
crS. But few Of them can leave the coun-
" to attend Normal Schools and other
institutions where they can obtain thoro'
training in the duties Of their calling.
Aud consequently the best they eau do
l. to avail themselves OF the advantages
offered at home by the Association. Yet
strange a. ii may seem, some who aspire
to teach, appear unwilling to DO it, Those
who have received no professional training
most certainly ought to avail themselves
Of every means of Improvement within
their power, that they may not % wholly
blind-folded to work in one OF the most
difficult ayocations Of life and those who
have, certainly ought to be willing to give
others who are not 50 highly favored the
benefit OF their skill and experience. In
dom. this they will find their knowledge
frightened aud their minds growing
sharper.
Then let every teacher within the lin
lis Of Potter County place their names
upon the Toll book Of her Teachers Asso-
ciatioa, aud become working members in
that body as well as OUT Of 1t. Come from
every his. and valley, from every mountain
gieu, and forest nook; come from the rip
ping waters of the Allegheny, and from
the clear fountains OF the Susquehannah
come one, come all. TO every meeting of
the Association. aud let Us counsel to-
-ether Tor the advancement OF education,
ana then - our way sgain better prcpar-
ed tor our important duties and stronger
in our united strength. HEBRON
