County Institute.

To the Editor Of the Cambria Freeman
With your permission 1 wish to call the
county institute.
The Institute will meet in Ebensburg on
Monday, the 3Oth day of this month, and will
continue IN session until the following Fri
day. Railroad excursion ticket orders will
be furnished to such teachers and directors
as desire to attend, upon application to my
self or to Mr.. Geo. W. Cope. 1t is especial
ly desirable that there be q large attendance
OF directors, particularly Wednesday,
the LIST day of January next, which we have
set apart as Directors Day" All of that
day, or such part of it as may be thought
necessary by the directors present, will be
appropriated to their use.
Among the more eminent strangers who
are expected to be present are Messrs Henry
Houck, Deputy State Superintendent S. q.
Boyd, late superintendent of York county
Geo. j. Luckey, City Superintendent of
Pittsburgh, and Henry 1. Gourley, also of
Pittsburgh. Besides these, a large number
of the teachers of the county will be on hand
with various exercises adapted to the i'll
Struction and entertainment of the institute.
1t is particularly desirable that certain
teachers in the county who have heretofore
been negligent i'll the matter of attending our
institutes, should be present. The law makes
a plain provision for reducing the grade of
certificate where parties neglect the county
institutes, and this provision of law will be
regarded hereafter even more strictly than
heretofore. Nor will Professional certificates
in future be granted. let the requirements of
parties be what they may, unless those who
desire them will both attend the institutes
and take an active part in their exercises
Something more than certain nero "qualifi-
cations" will be insisted on in future
Teachers who cannot or will not do anything
for the success of the county institutes and
the benefit of their fellow teachers are not
considered worthy to hold such certificates
In conclusion, l wish TO express the hope
hot a h1rAa af.NrG
spent in the institute. They may legally do
this. There can be no question that the in
stitute would be of great advantage to many
of our teachers if they would attend and
thus indirectly our schools would be vastly
benefited. Directors should take such steps
as they can for the impro ovementt of our
teachers and schools. Besides, would sug-
gest that possibly some districts might have
much less difficulty in securing suitable
teachers for their schools than they have
had, if they would pursue more generous
policy towards their teachers when they
have them. Very truly, Sc,

FATAL ACCIpENT.-On Monday mErn-
ing of last week the body of n man named
William Long was found on the track or
the branch road near Canan's station. He
was terribly mangled, being almost literally
cut to pieces. Whether he was killed by
the early train, or whether he died from
exposure, will perhaps never be definitely
known. He was seen about Canan's sta
ton on the previous evening, evidently un-
der the Influence of strorg drink. From
that time until the discovery of his remains
in the morning nothing is known of his
movements. Deceased was a cripple, hav-
ing had his feet frozen of several years ago.
