The Teachers Institute.

The Eleventh Annual Session of the
Sussex County Teachers Institute
commenced on December 10Th in the
Court House in Georgetown. Super
intendent Williams presided and Miss
Ida Davis, of Georgetown, was elected
Secretary.
After prayer by the Rev. Mr.. Du-
hallway, the "Address of Welcome"
was delivered by William H. Boyce.
The Superintendent responded to Mr..
BOyce's address, and stated that the
teachers had come here for work they
expected the assistance Of the School
Board. and hoped for pleasant and
profitable session.
Assistant Superintendent Carpenter
delivered an address on the Necessary
Apparatus for the Country School" Z"
lie said every teacher should have
lirst-class appliances to be able to turn
out first-clGss work. He urged the ne
cessity of holding the Institute for a
week instead Of three days, and sug-
gested that one day be set apart for
Commissioners day, that they may
become better informed as 10 the needs
of public schools.
Prof Carpenter was followed by Mr..
Crocker, principal Of the Milford
schools, Charles b. Morris. of Milton,
Mr. Lyman, of Roxana, E. d. Tarr
and J. l.. Thompson, of Georgetown.
Rev. DR.. Caldwell, president of Del
aware College, and Rev. Mr.. Ballard,
Vice President of the Ocean Grove As
soeiation, n. j., were called upon and
delivered interesting addresses.
The former set forth the advantages
to be gained especially by farmers, in
sending their boys to Delaware Col
lege, where they could he more cheaply
and as well instructed as in any other
institution.
Friday.-Up to this time 100 teachers
had registered. Assistant Superinten-
dent Carpenter gave short talk on
the use of charts and then introduced
Prof. J., Trying Handy, principal OF
Smyrna public schools, who in a mas
terly manner explained the use and
reading of arlthmetical charts.
A select choir furnished excellent
music during the Institute, and elected
warm concentrations from all.
The Institute has been the most sue
cessful one ever held in this county,
and that the system of having super
intendents and holding institutes is
productive of good can easily he shown
by comparing the teachers and school
buildings of twenty years ago, or even
a less time, and those Of to-day.
The interest manifested by the pub
lie is also greatly on the increase, aud
the success of public schools in Della
ware is becoming more assured each
year.
