ATTENDANCE REQUIRED BY LAW.
Teachers should not fail to attend the
Institute. No progressive teacher can af-
ford to stay away from such an educa-
uonal assemblage; nor can the less pro-
gressive, because it is he who should be
mole anxious to seek the presence of the
great educational instructors, aud thus, on
his return to his school, be the better able |
10 discharge his great responsibility as
teacher.
While the law, speaking of Institutes.
says At which li,ne all the teachers /
in the county shall attend, unless una |
voidably detained" no teacher should I
feel that he is constrained to attend be- \
cause of legal enactment, but rather from
q love OF the knowledge gained there
from.
All teachers can well afford TO attend
the Institute, since The law says Tile
time during which each teacher shall he
in attendance upon the lEsli;ute shall
not he deducted from his or her period Of
service as teacher, by the commissioners
of any district
