Ioint Teachers, Meeting

The teachers meeting held Saturday
Feb. ?, at the rooms of Beeman's Actual
Business college, was one of the most in
teresting ever held in Red Wing. About
100 Goodhue and Pierce Co. teachers
were present, among them being Supt. c.
J.. Brewer and ex-Supt. &. L. Bowman
of Pierce Co., Supt. Engstrom and ex-
Supt. j. w. Hancock of Goodhue, and
Prof G. 0. Brohough of the Red Wing
seminary.
The meeting opened with an able adj
dress by Pres f. l.. Anderson, on the
subject of Blackboard Exercises" He
said backboards should be spacious and
of the proper quality and that it is the
teachers business to see that they are so.
He showed how the teacher could adj
vantageously make use OF the board in
teaching all the branches stating that
the teachers work should be model of
correctness and neatness and the pupils
should be sent to the board principally to
test their ability. A general discussion
| followed in which many minor incidents
were brought out.
An elaborate paper was then read by
Supt. Brewer on Technical Grammar.
He dwelt principally On sentential analy-
sis, bringing out the idea that more men
tai culture is derived from mental analy-
sis than diagraming. He was opposed to
diagraming on that ground. A lively
discussion followed, Mr.. Engstrom taking
the ground that diagraming is what the
common schools need and that mental
analysis should be reserved for the more
advanced pupils Mr.. Bowman thought
that it was not wrong to call name,
noun; an action word, verb; quality
word, an adjective, etc, before innocent
children. w. c. Owen hoped that such
methods would be relegated to the fogy-
isms ofthe past. A recess was then taken
until 100.
The afternoon session opened with the
reading of a paper on Advanced Arith-
metic." by w. G. Hartranft Of Ellsworth.
He demonstrated to a nicely the relation
of fractions, decimals and percentage.
He showed that the principals of per-
ceutage, profit and loss, and commission
are the same, the names only differing
In the discussion that followed, Prof
Brohough clearly explained the reason
the terms of the divisor are inverted in
dividing one fraction by another.
Prof. Brohougb gave a discourse on
Reading, showing how different mean
ings may arise from placing the empha-
sis on different words in a sentence. He
said the elements Of reading are distinct
articulation. correct pronunciation, and
proper expression.
The Pierce county teachers offered the
| following resolution:
| Resolved, That we hereby tender our
| thanks to Supt. Engstrom and the teach
| ems Of Goodhue county, for the hOspitall-
ty received at their hands, during this
visit.
During the intermission the teachers
took the opportunity to become acquaint-
/ ed with each other.
AL present seemed 10 have an enjoy
able time and there is no reason to doubt
that they derived much benefit from the

The state printing is becoming sub
ject of interest to members of the
legislature. 1t is matter of specula-
ton why the state should require more
than Sl,000-wOrth of printing per
week; or how the public printer can
no 81 ,000-worth per week with ten or
fifteen men and boys; or why it costs
the state $l.30 each to bind lot of
books that could be bound at profit
at 10 cents each; or why the state
should pay 90 cents each for 5000
Blue Books, and then be compelled to
pay ST.. 10 each for an additional lot of
10000, especially when there was
profit of 200 per cent. on the first lot,
which included the type-setting, while
there was no type-setting at all on the
second lot, which was run" from the
stereotype plates. Since territorial
days the state printing has been a
fruitful source of corruption, and it is
