Chairman Wagner, in answering said h,
hOught the point raj led by Mr. Dunn
hould be considered in discussi of the
question,
Mr. Jones thought the question was be.
ng properly discussed and offered the fol.
low ng:
'ResoiUed that this convention is OF
| opinion that in the teachers county insti-
,te more time .hould be given to teachers
Of the county to take part in its exercises
md to present such suggestions and in.truc
uohs as they shall deem of benefit to the
chools, scholars and teachers of the
county"
a, J. Gallagher, Of town, said that be
was of the opinion that teachers are DOT
ave an opportunity to be heard at the
ounty Institutes. Mr.. Gallagher did not
believe in Mr. Bairds idea that school
teachers should not be allowed to teach for
more than ten years.
Hon. John T. Schooner, of Orwigsburg.
Was of the opinion that county institutes,
rs now conducted, are ben fit. If con-
Ventions of civil engineers, medical men,
and other professions are conducive of
good, conventions of teachers are.
Mr.. Dunn, of Minersville, moved that
the consideration Of the resolution be post
poned until such time as the teachers of
the county institute have an opportunity of
discussing the question.
Messrs. Shoener and Spiese spoke against
the motic n as out OF order. The motion
was defeatd
Terrence Ginley, of Girardville, pre-
sented the following: "ResolUed, that it is
the sense of this convention that county
institutes, as now conducted, are of prac-
tical benz fit." The resolution was adopted
by large majority.
The adoption of the resolution was a
clean Knockout of what many of the school
teachers and directors classed as q Pottsyille
scheme.
Mr.. Jones' resolution was then put before
the convention and also carried, after
which the convention adjourned, to re-
convene after dinner.
In reference to the list OF attendants at
the school directors convention will show
that Pottsville did not have a representa-
tive at the meeting. This certainly does
not speak we'll for the county seat.
