| congratulate the tea cherS who were
present with us during this session of
the County Institute. We have not
been disappointed. In point of num-
Der enrolled regularity of attendance,
and willingness on the part of our
teachers TO work whenever called up
on. our meetings have been the most
successful ever held in the county. Not
a single teacher, placed on duty by the
committed on programme, failed. With
but few exceptions, all were present at
roll call and remained in session until
the hour for adjourning, thus showing
their interest in the work.
Twenty out of the twenty-seven dis
tricts in the county, were represented
OF these. Bedford Bor., Bedford tp.
Broad Top, Colerain, Coaldale, Liber
ty, st. ClaiFsville, Snake Spring and
SaxtOn, had ali their teachers present
Some had their time allowed them
others who were in attendance the
whole week were not allowed d single
day. We would here again repeat
what has been embodied in a resolu-
ton, that ali directors who had their
teachers here in convention, should
grant them the number of days pres.
ent. The roll has been carefully pre-
pared, and the attendance accurately
kept, so that directors may know the
exact number Of days each one attend,
ed. We feel sure that some good must
result to the schools through this con
vention, aud it is not asking too much
when we call upon directors to reward
their teachers for time spent here in
further preparation for the work in the
school room.
The essays, Orations and lectures pre-
pared by the teachers showed marked
improvement over those OF previous
years. Among others, we recall with
pleasure the oratiOn, on the theme;
'Stand like the Anvil" by our talen'
ted young townsman, John I'll. Jordan
For force of diction and for true merit
the production had no superior on the
programme. The young orator warm
ing with his subject, grew at times
truly eloquent. We predict for him il
his newly chosen profession brilliant
future.
In conclusion, we return thanks t
all parties who labored with us during
the past week. II. w. FISHER,
Co. Supt.
