OF the most successful Institutes ever held IN
Douglas county. and we think We are safe in
saying that il was one of the best ever held in
The state. Although the state makes no ap.
preparation to assist in carrying on these In
stiiutes, yet the executive committee secured
some OF the best talent IN the state in Prof.
Hull Of the Agricultural College and Proi.
Frank Rigler Of Oregon City who with ,heii
unliIing energy siroye 10 lead the teachers
into the .true light" Such men, although
their pecuniary recompence u small have the
heartfelt gratitude Of every teacher in :he land
who is truly striving to rise. In giving these
leaders in education our proper regards We
must not forget those who have not risen So
high in the profession, bu, who are equally as
much in earnest. Reverence the highest,
have patience with the lowest. Let this day
performance Of the meanest duty be thy re-
hgion. Ale the stars too distant, t,-pick mp
