bic paper for the following brief minute
OF the Linn County Teachers Institute,
which met at this place, December 10Th.
Owing to misunderstanding as to the
time OF meeting, the various parts of the
county were not SO fully represented as
could be wished but enough were pres.
ent to have a pleasant and profitable
time. The session lasted three days
The branches were we'll represented; the
discussions we're lively, aud harmony PRE-
vailed amongst all. The Institute is in a
sound and healthy condition, and never
seemed more likely to succeed in its
grand object, viz: that of raising the
genera! standard Of the schools Of Linn
county. Among others, the following
resolutions were adopted:
Resofred, That we regard scholarship
and practicability as the highest qualif.
cation Of teachers and that politics and
religious sectarianism ought never to en-
ter our schools.
Resokred, That we believe that the
prcseDce'of parents has salutory infu-
ence in our common schools; therefore
we recommend that patrons visit their
schools aud the Teachers Institute more
frequently.
ReSoiged, That We believe the preiu-
dice existing against female teachers
ought to be removed, and we invite them
to the field Of labor.
ResDlrcd. That hereafter circulars be
sent to teachers and the friends Of edu-
cation throughout the county, notifying
them Of the time Of holding sessions,
containing the programme Of exercises.
and inviting shcm to be present.
Resotred, That teachers who frequent
saloons should not be regarded as possess
ing good model character.
The subjects discussed were, principal
ly, Reading, Orthography, English Gram.
mar, School Government, and Arithme-
tic
The place Of holding the next session
was fixed at Irvings Schoolhouse, time,
May 4th. 1869.
4 profitable session is expected. All
are invited to attend Teachers, come
promptly to this great work and let US
show that we are in earnest. BE alive to
the interests of this Association, and wc
arc bound to succeed.
