Superintendent Smith welcomed the
teachers TO the Institute. 1t afforded him
great pleasure to say that SO teachers were
spirit of the teachers of Juniata, and he
1ss not discouraged when he saw the un-
favorable condition of the roads. He urged
upon the teachers the importance OF max
ing good use of their time while here, and
TO show on their return TO their respective
schools, that they are able to govern and
teach better. This, he said, would create
public sentiment in favor of the Teachers
Institute. And this, he said. is necessary,
since the objections TO the Institute are that
no good is derived from it, and that five
DAYS are lost.
