TO TEACHERS.
Our aim is to make the Institute of
1890 success, and we bespeak your
hearty corporation. We hope to see
every teacher in the county, or those
who intend to teach, at the Institute
throughout the term. Ifitis impossible
to attend all the time, spend part of
the time at least with us. But if you
wish to secure the full benefit of the
Institute, be present at the beginning
and remain until the close.
With good instructors, a new course
ofstudy, lectures, entertainments, etc.,
we hope to make the four weeks so
pleasant and profitable, that no teacher
can Oxford to do otherwise than attend.
We weuld advise you to select your
grade from the course of study pre-
sented elsewhere, secure copy of the
course of study, and be prepared to
begin work-the first morning of the
Institute.
