This year the city and county insti-
tutes will be separate, owing to the
number of teachers that Will be in at
tendance. Superintendent Phillips
favors separate Institutes and adj
Vancess the good reason that work in
city schools is very different in method
to county schools, and a separate pro-
gramme is really necessary. Still the
greatest objection to joint institute
is the disadvantage from lack of room.
