DR.. Kerr, as we'll as the teachers of
the county, were surprised to find that |
the conductor of the institute, adver-
tised a week ago, failed to put in an ap-
pearance Wednesday morning and that
in his place Supt. Joseph Kennedy, of
Trail county, was on the ground. At
roll call thirteen teachers were found to
be present and during the forenoon
enough more came in to swell the mum.

ing to the limited time vt his disposal
the institute extending over q period Of
only three days-the conductor found it
impossible to carry out as full a pro-
gram rs he might wish and confined
himself to giving general hints and brief
outlines of methods. During the first
session the subjects taken up were.
Primary Reading, Writing and Spelling.
The teachers were first asked to give
their methods and this would be follow
ed by criticisms from the conductor af-
ter which he would develop his own
method Of teaching the subject under
discussion. After the first ice was
broken the teachers were both ready in
depressing their own opinions and in
asking for information, and Mr.. Ken
nedy seemed we'll pleased net only with
the very full attendance Of the teachers
Of the county, but with their general
appearance and the interest they show
ed As we'll. During the afternoon the
subjects taken up were Arithme TIC and
Geography and short talk was given
BY Mr.. Siver Sermugard, just gradu-
ated from the University Of Minnesota,
on the general subject Of Pedagogues.
At the close of the session each teacher
was called upon to give device for
'busy work" and large number Of in
lteresting Is we'll as useful methods were
presented. One Of the devices brought
out very interesting discussion On the
best method Of handling pupils Of for
eign parentags who are unable to speak
or understand the English language.
As the hour was late the discussion had
to bs postponed to the next session.
The following were present. Prof.
