Institute Closed.

To-day the four weeks teachers institute
closes. Much has been accomplished and
numerous are the regrets that it is passed.
The enrolment exceeded $50 with con-
tinued good average attendance. The moral
effect of the work of Conductor Simmons
has been to dissipate sham and pretensions
in teaching. Make every effort to inform
yourself and then If you don't know, say so.
No teacher can rest self-satisfied without
continual study and remain in the ranks of
successful instructors. Supt. Simmons has
the faculty of putting things strongly, says
the right thing in the right place and never
slops over. The award of four volumes
offered by Harpers in the map drawing con-
test was made to Miss Leola Glover, Miss
Hasty of Lansing being close second.
Thursday the award of four other volumes
offered by the same house was made. The
terms of contest were not announced until
the moment of writing, when Secretary Nc
Bride announced that there had passed 239

Goss was presented with copy of Green's
History of the English People and Rolfe':
Tales From English History. Miss Goss ha:
been the efficient pianist during the session:
of the institute. Thursday the exercises
were varied from regular class work by
Supt Simmons giving, by request his
lecture on Mammoth Cave. Numerous Wis
itors were present, who with the teachers
were very highly entertained. During thu
music at the close of the lecture, severa
stalwart teachers with watermelon undel

Shiawassee county was disgraced by a
prize fight OF Sunday last. The fight took
place i'm the woods near the five points west
of the city i'm the presence of about 60 per-
sons. The contestants were Van Wilkinson
and Herman Herring, both local bruisers.
The money was awarded to the former OH
a foul after six blOodless rounds. War
rants were issued yesterday for the princi-
pals and Van Wilkinson was arrested and
is in Jail, being unable to give bail. Public
sentiment favors heavy punishment for all
connected with the affair. The report that
Sheriff Morrice knew the fight was to occur
and ordered Under Sheriff Crane to arrest
the parties during the fight is without
foundation.

invitation the institute adjourned to the
school-yard for obvious reasons. To-day
the melon eaters were photographed in the
act of finishing another half dozen. The
regard in which the institute is held is given
from opinions expressed by teachers in at
| tendance.
Hattie l.. lIasty, Lansing:-The Shia-
wassee county institute has been great
help in the way of furnishing new and prac-
tical ideas for teaching. Teachers have
been shown how 10 use aids outside of the
| textbook, how to be better teachers than
they could have been otherwise.
Nellie Goss, Lansing:-The institute is
pronounced by all one of the best ever held
in the State. Its length, good attendance
and general interest are the special features.
All who have attended testify to its benef-
cial effects. 1t has awakened a new inter-
| est on the part of the teachers and the many
methods and helps given by the. instructors
will greatly aid them in getting out of the
old rut in school work. All have been
thoroughly aroused to the responsibility of
their profession.
Herbert J. McEuen:-To me personally
the institute work during the past four
weeks has been source of much profit
The instruction received has been very
satisfactory and feel that can begin work
again with renewed enthusiasm.
f. A. Fox:-TO one interested in the
work of educating the young, the able in
structiOn given during the four weeks insti-
tute, must prove lasting benefit. The
reviews have been very instructive to me,
and the work in pedagogy has given me
many new ideas, therefore furnishing new
line of thought l feel greater interest in
the work than ever before, and trust that in
the years to come may meet the teachers
of Shiawassee County many times iii SINH
lar meetings.
Leola Glover:-I have been impressed
with the great responsibility of the teacher,
and the need of thorough preparation.
Personally have been benefited by the in
oei"Seioh SiNoii III ClNll government anu
pedagogy, and the practical methods in
teaching history, geography and primary
reading.
Lula E. Scott:-The institute is very ben
eficial. 1t awakens new lines of thought
| and gives general impetus to the profess
sion of teaching. l shall return to my
school work with greater interest and en-
thusiasm for having attended this institute.
Guy Lemon:-The Institute has been of
great interest to me. 1t has given me a
greater zeal, a fuller realization of my duties
as a teacher, and better knowledge of the
profession.
Fred M. Wimple:-The institute has
given me new zeal for my work. Those
teachers who were not in attendance can
not estimate the value of the instruction
they missed.
Eta Ellis:-I shall commence my work
this fall feeling that can do more and bet
| ter work for having attended the institute.
L think the entire course of instruction has
been a benefit to me, but particularly that
gained i'm the studies of pedagogy, geography
| and history, under Prof. Simmons. | be-
leve my vacation has been profitably spent.

An investigation recently conduct
cd by the Treasury Department dis
closed the fact that London firm
had established IA agency for the en-
couragement OF immigrants to the
United States. They induced per-
sons to immigrate to the United
States by promises OF employment,
and furnished them with circular let
tiers to agents in Texas, whose bust
ness it was to procure employment
for them and to care for them until
doing so. The intending immigrants
were on their part required to sign
agreements to accept the first en-
ployment offered them by the agents
in Texas. The collector OF customs
at New York prevented number of
these immigrants from landing, where
upon the British Minister at Wash
ington formally complained OF his &C.
ton Oh the ground that there was no
contract, expressed or implied, in the
transaction, and therefore no viola.
ton of law. The Treasury Depart
ment has, however, sustained the &C.
ton of tho collector, holding that the
papers, which the immigrants were
compelled to sign, constituted a con-
trao, within the meaning OF the law.
1t is quite evident that the alien con-
tract labor Law will not become a
failure for want Of vigorous enforce
ment of it by the administrative off.
