to our worthy Cour ty Examiner, Prof.
j. Il. Pickett, for the able and Impair
tial manner in which he has presided
over the present session of this Insti-

pecially to Capt. r. j. Wilson and DR..
J. A. Westerfield for the able, pleasant
and inspiring words of encouragement
given us in our school work.
That we point with pride to the fact
that our honored State stands as only
third among the great states OF this
grand Union In the line of educational
advancement, and that we realize that
this has only been brought about by
the combined heroic efforts OF our Su-
porintendents, teachers and patrons in
the grand cause of education, and be
lieving that still greater advancement
may be made in this line by still clos
er and more united effort upon the part
of teachers and patrons, and believing
that to arrange our county into districts
for the purpose of holding teachers
district meetings is step in the right
direction to the promotion of more in-
terest among ourselves and patrons:
Therefore be it
RESOLVED, That we ask our County
Examiner to arrange the county into
such districts, appointing president
for each district, whose duty it shall be
TO call said meetings, and by the as
sistance OF a secretary prepare pro-
gram, sending one to each teacher, that
he may prepare himself uron the sub
ject assigned. We further recommend
that these meetings be held monthly at
the different school houses within such
districts. Respectfully submitted
