The meeting was called to order 1t about

Th. address Of Elder g. W. Freeman
Of Elk Point WAS excellent both on &C
count Of the ideas presented and the
Of delivery ; and I might add on
sccoant Of the enthusiastic reception Civ

address was .Education's influence upon

The following i q short analysis Of the
address: LIST. Education's influence a.
shown BY I comparison Of heather lands
with civilized christian countries. Ref.
srence was made 70 the habits. good and
evil. Of our Asistic immigration to Cali
fornis their heathen temples consecratsd
70 many supposed dsities, their wonder
dsrful aud cruel supcrstitions. Reference
was slse mads TO want Of sufficient intel
ligencs in Our country in the past, ~
witchcrAft in Mass. Omens Of evil for.
shown by the northern lights &C.
I'd All teaching is moi good. Atle-
ism perverts the human character, max es
men illiberal and intoleran ut. and destroys
manly courage-for example cited the
history Of New Ulm, Minnesota. Educa-
ton and christianity are helpmstes each
to the other.
Sd The education Of comities 10 pro.
NOTED by good school houses, supplying
them with necessary maps and apparatus
for everything pertaining to science, and
the keeping Of the same in perfect order.
BY paying liberal prices for good teach
err. Teachers should be possessed Of
general intelligence and tasty in their
habits. School rooms should be models
Of neatncss and order. No teacher
should be employed whose life is faulty.
No one should receive license to teach
who is in the habit of occasionally given
to the use Of intoxicating beverages.
Rev. Bridgman of Richlaud followed
with q brief extempore address, showing
a deep interest in the cause of education.
