Prof. Haworth, '93, gave very in
teresting talk to the Blount County
teachers, Wednesday morning. The
professor told us about winds, storms,
cyclones, jack-rabbits and schools in
the west. All schools, in Kansas, lie
said, are two miles apart and are
painted white with three windows on
each side. AS to the teachers there
are three female teachers to one male.
While in Blount County there is one
female to one male teacher. The
Normal School in the west is held
from four to five weeks and is very
well organized. Examination is very
difficult, in fact, the third grade in
Kansas is rqual to the first grade Of
Blount Co. Work in the school
room is very systematic. The Prof
essor made few valuable suggestions
in regard to the future work of the
teachers in Blount Co. His talk was
good and instructive and those who
were present appreciated it very
much. Hurrah for go.
