Terchpr's Association,

The Allen County Teachers Asso-
citation met in the High School loom
with a small number present. Each
responded to roll call by giving a quo
tation from Evangeline.
The president, Mr.. +. &. Remsburg,
gave short inaugural address, urging
the teachers to strive for better and
higher work this year i'm the school
room and in the associations.
Mr.. Carter read a paper entitled,
"How can We make our association
better i'm the futures" He said if each
school board i'm the county would pay
its teacher or teachers a dollar extra
for each meeting they attended, we
would have every one present instead
of the few who are always there. 1t
is true not one third of our teachers
attend these meetings that are pre-
pared especially for them, to help
them i'm their work and to be a bene-
fit to both teacher and school, vet is it
right to ask the school pOard to hire
them to 90? Must teacher be hired
to improve himself? Are ministers
and physicians hired to attend conven-
lions that are held especially for their
own advancement? No, then why
should a teacher? When he enters
the profession let him not be afraid of
spending few cents to get to these
meetings, he will more than receive
his moneys worth from the Reading
Circle alone. If each of the one hun
dred teachers employed in the county
would make q little effort to attend,
this association could rank among the
first of the state.
The most attractive part of the pro-
gram is the State Teachers Reading
Circle. This month the lesson i'm The
DRY and Practice was conducted by
Mrs. Picken, and the one i'm History
by Prof Picken. There isn't a teach
or who can afford to miss the instruc-
ton given in these lessons.
The recitation by Miss May Ewing
was unusually well rendered.

Obituary.

Mrs. Ida J. Carter, whose sad death
we noticed last week, as occurring OH
Wednesday, Sept. ., 1891, was born in
Randolph, Mass. Aug. %, 1916. She
graduated from the Adams High
School at Quincy, Mass, at which
school she ranked high "a a bright and
faithful student. On Sept. q, 1866,
the wedding ceremony was performed
which united her with John w. Car
ter. The newly-wedded couple then
took up their abode in Belfast, Maine,
where they resided until the fall of
1877, when Mr.. Carter retired from his
sea-faring life, and the family moved
to Kansas. With their life since that
time, the readers of the REGISTER are
familiar.
The deceased was a member of the
Cniversalist church, and has been an
earnest worker I'm the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union. Her
last illness was of short duration, and
beyond her neighbOrs and intimate
friends, it was hardly known
that she had been attacked by the
typhoid fever until her death was an
nounced. The funeral services were
held at the lola cemetery at two
o'clock p. M, Thursday, Sept. 4, con-
Quoted by Rev. A S. Freed. The de-
ceased leaves husband and two chill
dren, Clarence f., aged twenty, and
Emma, aged thirteen. Her father,
Mr.. J. G. Norton, is one of the oldest
and most respected citizens of Marina
ton township, and her brother, c. J.
Norton, and her sister, Mrs. Geo
Davis, are both we'll known. The
sympathy of the community goe. out
to these grief-stricken friends.

The Peoples Party Convention.

The convention met at the court
house Saturday Sept. 5th and organ.
lied with Frank Powers in the chair,
and ]. NJ. Lindsay as secretary. AT.
| ter the usual committees on creden.
tials, resolutions, and permanent or.
ganiZation had reported, the conven.
ton proceeded to the nomination OF
county officers. 1t was decided that
before the formal ballot was taken,
each candidate should be called up
and required to show just where he
stood. Lieurance grew pale at this,
but after the informal ballot which res
suited in the majority vote for him, he
stepped forward and meekly inquired
what was wanted of him. The con-
vention then proceeded to examine
him on his present political beliefs
and past political action. 1t will be
seen that Mr.. Lierrance is not narrow
i'm his political views. Having to all
practical purposes Endorsed the Demo-
cratic resolutions two weeks ago, he
now declared that he stood squarely
on the st. Louis platform, the Ocala
platform and the Cincinnati platform,
believed in the resolutions just adopt
and that he had not accepted the DEM
ocratic nomination for treasurer. What
farce! Mr.. Lieurance was of course
nominated and will head both tickets.
Further balloting resulted in the nom-
ination of J. M. Lindsay as clerk, T..
A. Gleason as sheriff, H. c. Funk as
register OF deeds, and G. C. McCartey
as surveyor. Mr.. Lindsay will be re-
membered as the man who used TO be
a Union Labor candidate for office.
He seemed to be under the impression
that this is still the Union Labor party
and said that he was glad to see the
movement increasing In strength. At
the convention had adjourned, the
delegates from the commissioner dis
tricts met and nominated G. +. Smith
of Moran commissioner from 3rd dis
trict and r.. NJ. Purdom from md dis
trict. 1t will be remembered that Mr..
Purdom is the Democratic nominee for
commissioner. At this writing we
are unable to secure the resolutions
which were passed.
The crowd was composed principally
of Democrats and chronic third-party-
ties and the result was just what
everybody expected. The only new
and startling thing was Pap" Hay
wards "pint", that the Peoples party
is after the principles" and not "the
spiles."
