NOIlCE IO TEACHEkS.
STATE TEACHERS INSTITUTE, AT
SAUK CENTRE, MINI.
A State Teachers Institute, continuing in
session till Friday evening following, will
commence at Sank Centre,
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 21st, 1874.
No teacher in this county who has been
or expects to be engaged in teaching in the
Public Schools, should lose the opportuni-
ty this Institute Will afford for improve
ment in methods Of teaching, as the prin-
cipal instructors have had large experience
in Institutes, and will render it both inter-
esting and profitable. The daily drills in
the several branches of study pursued in
our Public Schools will be invaluable to
any teacher, the object being to impart in.
struction in the art of teaching, and not to
subject teachers to examination.
Persons hoping to obtain or hold certif.
Gates of qualification 10 teach in any of the
public schools Of the County, are expected
to attend this Institute, and any person who
is unwilling to make the sacrifice necessary
for such attendance, will be regarded as not
approaching the sacredness of the calling,
and the necessity of thorough preparation
for the discharge of the important duties
devolving upon teachers, and for that rea-
son may be regarded as unfit for employ
ment in the public schools of the State.
Teachers will receive free entertainment
while in attendance and teachers from
other counties are respectfully invited.
A public lecture will be given each even
ing. School officers, parents, and all friends
of education are invited to be present at the
lectures, and also at the day sessions.
All are cordially invited, as we are sure
that it will prove beneficial to ALL not only
to teachers, but to the whole community in.
terested in education, and in order to alloy
all to attend, the new school law has the
following provision:
That during the time Of holding Teach
ers' Institute in any county of this State, it
is hereby made the duty of all teachers and
persons desiring teachers certificate to at
tend such Institute, or present to the Couu-
ty Superintendent satisfactory reasons foy
not so attending, before. receiving such Ger
tifcate; and any school that may be in ses-
sion in such county shall be closed, if the
teacher shall request it, for the purpose of
attending such Institute.
Hon. H. B. Wilson, State Superintepd-
ent of Public instruction, will be present.
Very Respectfully,
P. E. KAISER,
County Superintendent of Schools.

Russell, of the Brainerd Tribune, who
is kind of general benefactor of the hui
man race, always casting about how he
may do good, has made arrangements for
disposing of the whole grasshopper crop.
He does it after this fashion:
The old grasshoppers are said to be dy-
ing off by millions, in districts where they
have been holding high carnival of lateS A
grub-worm develops itself in each individ-
ual hopper, and becomes nearly as large as
the hopper itself, and at certain stage of
maturity they turn to and eat the whole
south end off Mr.. Grasshopper without the
slightest postponement on account of the
weather. OF course this causes the imme-
diate demise of the pests, and the ground is
speedily strewn with their shapeless wrecks.
