Local Institutes and BEADING Circles.

The committee on reading circles and
local Institutes appointed at the county
institute, reported "A series of resolutions
recommending the division of the county
into sections by the County Superinten-
dent, and the appointment of leader
OF temporary chairman for each section
The resolutions were unanimously adop-
ted 5v the institute.
In accordance with the direction of
the committee and the institute, the
division of the county for organization
is herewith presented. The division is
made with special reference to the con-
venience of attendance of teachers and
directors. The teachers of some districts
may, however, find it more convenient
to attend the meetings of another section
than the one to which their district be-
longs. 1t should be the aim of every
teacher to attend one section, and con-
tribute something to make the meetings
of practical character, Teachers, show
that we mean to carry out the resolutions
of the county institute.

The nature of the exercises for the

In several sections the teachers will or
ganize reading circles, and take up
course Of prOfHssiOr1' reading In other
districts the exercises will be largely of
the character of local Institutes, and
directors and patrons will attend and
take part
IC is thought best to leave the DO
gram, the number of meetings to be held
and other matters, entirely to the teach
ers of the different sections. Each
section may have subjects and questions
for discussion peculiar 70 itself We
think it advisable, however, that a
course Of professional reading and study
be made part of the work of each sec
tion in the county.
Respectfully submitted.
COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT.
