WORK Being Done Ieacners
Who are Enrolled.
The second day of the Institute
opened Wednesday morning with
renewed attendance and enthusiasm.
The total enrolment up to date is IS
and it is thought this viii reach the
hundred mark in a day or two.
Prof. j. d. Wilson, principal of Sc
dalia High School, is conducting this
session, assisted by Principal j. F.
Spaunhurst, of Laddonia, and Prinei-
pal R. G. Hale, of Rush Hill. These
gentlemen are all highly educated
teachers of experience, and hence are
thoroughly adapted to instruct even
SO learned a body as the one now un-
der their guidance.
Among the enrolled students of the
Institute are several graduates of the
class of '96, Mexico High School:
Helen Gross, Luther Byrns, Dorothy
Hopkins, Lou Ella White, Roy Burk-
hart, Katie Smithey and Jouett 81.
Shouse. From this years graduates
at Hardin are Daisy Baker, Wayne
Duncan, Mabelle Hathaway and Mag
gle Bradley.
Prof. j. d. Wilson is a highly edu-
Gated and polished gentleman and a
man of depth of thought.
Prof. Hale is a dry, witty gentleman
whose head is well stored with facts
of nature, law and study.
Prof. S%paunhurst is the one who
takes with the ladies. Let it not be
inferred, however, that he is unpopular
with the gentlemen. Mr.. Spaunhurst
seems to have an especial knack for
remembering dates, and whenever
possible he gives full sway to discus
sion on all points, which is most
pleasant.
Among our visitors yesterday
were noted Misses Martha Shea, Adele
Landry, Artemisia Edmonston, May
Hughes, Maud Carter, and Judge
Guthrie, G. F. Clark and Isham Rob-
erts.
Prof. Wilson requested this morn
ing that the article of age, which had
been omitted from many of the ladies'
enrolment cards, be supplied, and
promised that the whole matter would
be kept a profound secret.
Prof. Hale told his Civil Govern
ment class that they will not be ex-
pected to know as much about the
Missouri Constitution as a lawyer, but
asked them to do the best possible,
and above all things to keep cool.
The following enrolled to-day: Stel-
la Toalson, N. V. Ellis, G. M. Slona-
ker, Ora Johnson, Kate Duncan and
Anna Hinde, all of Mexico.
Prof. Spaunhurst is being very ably
assisted in the Physiology classes by
Clarence A. Barnes, of this city.
