State Teachers Association.

The Iowa State Teachers Associa-
ton convened at Waterloo on the
23d inst. at 7.30 A. NJ. A few words
of greeting were given by A. 1Horne,
Principal of the East Waterloo
schools.
Many of the most noted and sue
cessful educators of the State were
present at the inaugural address of
President of the association, Prof. +.
Piper, of Manchester. This address
was q condensed review of our
school system, and was like all of
Prof. Piper's efforts, both pointed
and instructive. One of the inn
portant improvements of our school
system, which he favored, is a State
Normal School, for which all lovers
of learning shall increasingly labor.
Special preparation ia as much a
necessity for teaching as for any
other profession. He found'occasion
to rejoice over Iowa's staunch posi-
ton in favor of the Bible in our COM
mon schools and proved conclusively
by u lengthy argument, that the en-
emies of the Bible are the enemies of
our common schools. AT the close of
the address Prof. J. Parvin, of Iowa
City moved that a vote be taken to
give the expression of the association
on the Bible question, which being
taken, resulted i'm a unanimous sup
port of the views of the President.
"Wednesday morning, after devo-
tionsl exercises, various committees
were appointed, and the three Sec
tons, as given in the published pro-
gramme, were merged into one.
A discussion on school reports and
statistics was deliberately opened by
Charles Robinson, of De Witt. The
prevailing opinion favored school
reports, if judiciously used.
At 10Y O'clock Miss Mary A John
son, of Des Moines, read an essay on
Kindergarten Methods" which
was both pleasing and Instructive
Many expressions of appreciation
were given. After alluding to the
history Of these methods she explain
ed their object to be the symmetric'
al development of the mental and
moral powers of children in an at
tractive, social manner, and not by
the arbitrary rules OF schools and the
drudgery of books.
Immediately upon the opening o
the afternoon session Mrs. M. A
McGonegal, of Davenport, read al
essay ON Course of study for com
mon schools" The essay was very
instructive and thoughtful, and Wa
well delivered.

citation where prominent teachers
have come a long distance to obtain
the greatest good possible, it would
seem that every hour of the session
should be occupied with definite
work.
Thursday morning, the usual open
ing exercises were followed by a dis
cussion of the changes needed in the
school law. Tie opinion prevailed
that each township should be one
district, and that sub districts should
be abolished.
An essay was read by Mrs. J. G..
Gates, of Waterloo, on "Helpful.
ness" She measured ones great
ness by ones usefulness, and urged
teachers to higher motives and high
er attainments.
The report of the committee on q
Normal School was given by Prof. g.
n. Fellows, of Iowa City. 1t was q
very able report, and worthy of the
excellent and appreciated gentleman
who presented it.
A discussion followed which en-
phas sized the need of State Normal
School.
Resolutions were then adopted,
thanking the president of the asso-
citation for his earnest and successful
efforts in promoting the welfare of
the association. the executive COM
mittee for its efficient labors in pre-.
pairing work for the session, the citi-
zens of Waterloo for their generous
hospitality, the musical gentlemen
for their many favors, and several
Rail Road and Steamboat companies
for reduction of fare.
The National Teachers Association
was by resolution invited to hold its
next session at Davenport.
In the evening w. E. Crosby, su-
perintendent of the Davenport
schools, delivered an address on

in matter and elegant in diction.

was introduced, and showed by his

marks the honors of the association

About two hundred teachers and
