g GENTLEMEN--As my present term of office
and professional labor in Columbia will
close with the present scholastic year upon
which we have just now entered, l am anx-
1ous that the year may be distinguished by
unusual progress In the work of the scholars;
and for this reason ! beg leave to offer the
following recommendations
For ten consecutive terms prior to the last,
We had established local institute which
proved Of great advantage to our scholars
For Q large part of the term on every alter
nate Saturday, and never less,frequently than
once in each month, teachers were called
together toreview their work, aud to study
= tuB principles Of pedagogics and methods OF
instruction and discipline At these meetings
the minds Of the teachers were freed from the
i cares of the school room, and they were at
~ IN dQvnfa thnurht
subject in hand. They gave to the superln-
tendent a far better opportunity to correct the
faults that had come under his observation,
than it was possible for him to have in the
schooi room, ana III the hiios' ol i's cares
snu ;1 u,Sorat,ona ,ho so,b,rod wisdom ot all was
made available To- each. The Younger teach
ers had the advantage of all the Older teachers,
had learned from their larger experience and
In this way were greatly aided in correcting
their faults and Overcoming their dificuiiies'
did an opportunity for a friendly interchange
Of views on subjects of mutual interest, did
much to preserve harmony and cultivate
kindly feelings among teachers. Indeed, l
do not believe it possible to secure the best
results, the largest percentage of returns for
. the money expended in support OF our public
schools without the local institute. Your
good sense will enable you to SEE many OF
its benefits which cannot stop here tospecify.
You will see that they must of necessity be
very great
Under the present law the board cannot
pay teachers for institute week, without
: making special appropriation, and, there
fore recommend that having fixed the length
Of the term the school shall be kept open, the
board provide for paying teachers for four
days institute week, and direct that there
shall be eight half day sessions, one to be
held each month, for the first eight months
OF tne Term. 1ou cannot, gentlemen, III my
