way. Prof. Simmons instructions i'm ped
agogy Is an analysis of the powers of the
mind and how to reach these faculties.
Whites pedagogy is to be used but the
books have been delayed and have not reach
ed Owosso yet. The Detroit Evening Jour
al contributes IS copies to be used as a text
paper OF current events. These are tOl be
placed on each desk so that the benefits of a
daily newspaper is an innovation OH the Or
binary institute practice; perhaps the county
papers would care to initiate the Journal.
There will be awards made of or prizes
including a Websters Unabridged dictionary
historical works and a years subscription to
the Michigan Moderator. Harper's bound
sample pages of readers are being used as a
text book with good results.
