Martens-Mason.

Our county treasurer Geo. ID. Mason, has
for the past few months been wearing, in
addition to his usual every day habiliments,
a very dignitied air. Some thought it was
owing to his position as county officer,
while others said it was the paternal care of
his brother Ed. but few surmised the real
significance, which was that he was soon to
leave the free and easy life of bachelor,
and assume the dignity and soberness of a
husband. Nevertheless such has proven to
be the fact, and the Early Rising Club loses
another of its highly esteemed members, and
Miss Mary Martens, daughter of MIR. and
Mrs. ii. Martens, of Caledonia, gains true,
generous and indulgent husband.

in view, they quietly repaired to Pontiac

the Methodist church of that city. The

Teachers Institute.

To the Teachers of ShidlUdssee County:
The provisions of the school law require
the payment by teachers of an annual fee
to maintain teachers Institutes. In this
county in the past the institute fund has
been somewhat anticipated and the fund for
the succeeding year partly expended before
it has been collected. In consequence the
present year finds us with only sufficient
money to conduct short institute, and it
has been thought advisable to omit the in
stitute this year. This will give to the
county, next year, an Institute OF several
weeks conducted by the best instructors at
tainable. In order, however, that teachers
who are young in the profession may not be
entirely without professional training, the
Commissioner will hold, during the week
beginning August s, 1892, in OwOssO,
training school for teachers The object of
this will be to discuss, especially for country
teachers, those subjects which are absolutely
necessary to be understood in order to teach
successfully. We have in this county many
more teachers than the needs of the schools
call for, and the teacher who does not use
every means to improve himself or herself
has no right to ask to be retained i'm the
ranks. The supreme duty of the teacher is
the duty to grow. We have no room in the
crowded lists of our teachers for those in
dividuals who are satisfied to remain, term
after term, i'm the same lack of professional
knowledge. The educational interests Cf
thr county and the patrons of the school
alike demand that all teachers who cannot,
or who will not do good work, be perman-
emily retired from the profession.
A roll will be kept of those who attend
and special interest in the work will COM
mend the teacher to the Board of Examiners
as one worthy of careful consideration at
examinations. At the same time we shall
not give great credit for a single days at
tendance. TO get the benefit which should
be derived from the work, attendance
throughout the week is necessary. The
meeting is intended as a school, and more
will be expected of those who attend than
merely passive attention to lectures. You
will be expected to study and to take part as
pupils in recitations. Bring what text
books you think will be useful, and come
prepared to work.
