THE TEACHERS INSTITUTE.
Much Brains and Beauty EnHven the
Capital.


The Charlton county teachers in
stitute convened at the courthouse,
in Keytesville, at 1:30 O'Clock last
Monday afternoon. County School
Commissioner j. u. Coleman is in
charge as conductor and is being
ably assisted In his good work by
Profs. j. f. Pratt and j. X. Mason,
of Salisbury, NJ. ii. Tinsley, of Mo-
berly, and Miss Lynne Sullinger, of
Mexico. as instructors.
Through the kindness of several
county officials and other Keytesville
citizens, three rooms, the grand and
petit jury rooms and the circuit
court room, at the courthouse had
been comfortably arranged for the
teachers to hold forth during their
institute labors, and il would be dif-
ficult to find more airy or commo.
dious quarters.
The institute launches its bark un-
der fiattering prospects for the most
successful session ever held in the
county. Those in attendance are
enthusiastic and almost all young
men and ladies, there being scarcely
a teacher past middle age present.
Many citizens Of Keytesville have
lent their encouragement and shown
their appreciation of the capitals
welcome guests by their presence at
different times during the session,
and we hope that those who have
not yet done so will attend.
The assembly of the benders OF
young ideas makes a fine-looking,
intelligent body. just such as the
capitals denizens find congenial
companions and charming asso-
ciatss.
We are heartily glad to have the
teachers with us. The COURIER in
vites them to call at our Office, in
wade our sanctum sanctorum, and
visit US at our home-but please
don't all come at once.
As diversion from their work at
the institute an evolutionary contest
will be held at the courthouse to-
night, August 4th. Contest open to
all pupils Of public schools of Chari.
ton county. The prize is a $40
gold piece.
On Thursday night of next week,
August 10, a similar contest will be
held at the same place, in which a
$40 gold piece will also be given the
successful contestant. This contest
