with which the system had been conducted
in this city during the past three years, and
urged upon the teachers the Importance of
renewed efforts and fresh determination to
make this the most successful of any previous
scholastic year. He alluded to the honor OF
the profession, and insisted that the best road
to success was not only to attend diligently
the teachers meetings and profit by what
might there be suggested, butalso for each in
diYidual teacher to advance original ideas, by
which all might profit. The Mayor con-
ciuded with some wholesome advice, and
expressed the hope that the years close
