City Council.

At the council meeting Monday
night the first thing done was to allow
bills to the amount of $5075 for
street work, mostly. A proposed
bill to provide for the establishment
of system of sewerage and drainage
was submitted to the council and the
mayor instructed to notify the state
legislature that it was all right,
though it was thought our city at
torney and city engineer could inn
prove the title of the bill somewhat.
The mayor appointed Geo. j. Spencer
as city assessor for 1889, and by vote
of the council the appointment was
confirmed. Bill of costs in case of
city VS. Brinkman ct al was referred
to the finance committee. The coun-
Gil then adjourned to Monday,
Feb. 18th.

Teachers Meeting.

The regular monthly meeting of the
teachers of the Great Bend public
schools met in Prof. Recess office,
Friday, Feb. 9Th, 1889.
Meeting called to order by Prof.
Reece. Several of the teachers had
been assigned work at the previous
meeting, and were well prepared ON
their respective subjects.
Miss Jessie Cobun's paper on ''Open-
ing Exercises suggested many ways by
which these exercises may be varied
to interest and benefit the pupil.
Miss Stewards object lesson on
s'cotton" was an instructive exercis.
She had a class of seven little boys and
girls, with which she very nicely illus
trated how this work should be done.
She also read paper on EASY Les
sons in Natural Science"
Miss Allison read paper expressing
good methods on ''Order and school
room privileges at intermissions.' %
ALI her ideas were heartily endorsed by
teachers.
The subject of 'Diagraming" was
discussed by Miss Julia Miller, bring
ing out many advantages to be gained
by this method of work.
Miss McDowell's paper on ''School
Legislation" was of much interest to
the teachers. She told us how school
legislation is CARED ON in both city and
county, and ably set before us the
duties of patrons and teachers.
at the close of her paper it was re-
marked by one of the teachers that the
paper had failed to bring out one point
of great interest, viz: How the city
teachers can get their money?
