Teachers Institute.

le0cu6f~S lnbululee
HARTFORD CRY, August LIST, '95.-
The Mason County Teachers Insti-
tute met Monday morning in the
large and comfortable NJ. E. Church
building, in Hartford City. The
Instructors are, Maj. J. NJ. Lee, of
Huntington, and Mr.. C. T. Coates,
OF Ohio, both of them being very
popular here and instructors of ex-
ceptional ability. The enrolment
is about 22O, and the Institute is
equal to any ever held in the
county. OF these teachers, 81 have
taught over ten years; - over
twenty years, and 9 over twenty
five years. They take great inter-
est in the Institute and are live,
wide-awake teachers, equal to the
best in West Virginia.
The people of Hartford have
thrown open their homes and are
treating the teachers with great
kindness and hospitality. Indeedit
would be impossible for them to do
more to make the work here a
pleasant one.
The various topics on the regular
program were taken up and dis
cussed by Mr.. Lee and Mr.. Coates,
Monday and Tuesday. On Tuesday
morning, Waitman Barbe, Field
Agent for the West Virginia Uni
versity, delivered an address in the
interest of that institution, setting
forth its superior advantages and
showing that tuition is free to all
West Vagina young men and
young women in all of the depart
ments. Wonderful improvements
in the way of new equipments, etc,
have been made at the University
recently. Mason county has always
been a good patron of our States
chief educational institution. 1t is
a great mistake to go elsewhere
when the University offers such
superior opportunities free of tuition.
On Tuesday night Hon. Virgil
A. Lewis, State Superintendent of
schools, of whom Mason county is
Justly proud, delivered lecture TO
a fine audience and on Wednesday
night Mr.. Barbe lectured to another
large audience. Mr.. Coates and
Mr.. Lee, gave some excellent reci-
tations.
Wednesday morning was taken
up by Mr.. Lewis, with very profit
able discussion of the graded system
for country schools. This is the
most important topic on the pro-
gram, and the teachers of Mason
county, or the most of them, are
determined to introduce the graded
system the coming winter. This is
a matter of the utmost importance,
and Mr.. Lewis deserves great credit
for the splendid work he is doing
in this direction.
To night the ladies of the N. E.
Church will give a festival, which
most of the teachers will doubtless
attend.
The entire work has been one of
great profit and pleasure to every
body.

more careful when he is passing
teams standing along the street.
Yesterday he came near causing two

valves as he passed the teams. He
don't seem to have any regard for
