TEACHERS MEETING.
An Essay BY Mr.. Roy Sperry
Read Before the k.C.T.A.

At the meeting of the Kandiy-
Obi Co. Teachers Association on
the last Saturday of January,
an essay was read by Mr.. Roy
Sperry on the subject of ''Proper
School Incentives" The Asso-
citation considered the same very
meritorious, and decided that the
publication of the same be Sc
cured. The TRIBUNE takes great
pleasure in giving space for the
essay in it's columns.

tites and sensations pounding
away at the will, thereby form
ing character, ever changing it,
either making it weaker or max
ing it stronger.
Now returning back to the old
subjects Of school incentives, one
Of the places to train the wills of
the children and the youths is
the school, instilling in their
minds right desires and noble
purposes, training them to know
what true and noble, pure and
unselfsh actions should be and
by having such rewards and hon
ors, which shall be in their pow,
er to obtain by diligence in their
studies and good behavior, thus
will the scholars become interest,"
ed in their school work.
Authorities generally classify
school incentives in three divis-
sions. They are the artificial, Ia
tural and the religious. Artificial
incentives are rewards or what
ever else that will serve as Incl
tants which are thrust between
the pupil and the natural results
of study, in order to secure i'm
mediate results. These artiGt: cial
incentives generally consist of,
list. Prizes such as books, vari-
Gus kinds of reward and merit
cards, etc.
End. Privileges such as half
day holidays, early dismissal
from school, choice of seats, etc.
3rd. Immunities, as exemp-
tions from certain tasks, or pas
sing above certain percent in
daily recitation, study and con-
duct are exempted from examin-
ations.
These incentives just named
are among the lower
incentives used in the school
and yet if rightly incorporated in
the school work and used with
tact a high state of interest and
enthusiasm can be worked up on
the part of the scholars in their
school duties. But there are
certain dangers in the use of
such incentives, if the most care.
full care is not taken.
Take the spelling class for an
instance where a head marlz is
given to the pupil who is at the
head of the class at the close of
recitation and prize is given to
the pupil holding the most head
marks at certain period of
time. Suppose there are one or
two bright pupils in a class OF
ten who are far ahead of the rest
in number of head marks and
those that are ahead are about
even in mum Der of head marks.
Now that prize is only an incen.
| tiveto those that arr ahead for the
rest have lost hope Of obtaining
the prize.
Privileges and immunites are
better than prizes oftentimes
and grade these privileges and
immunities SO that the pupil al
most at the foot of the class NAV
obtain some privilege and by bet
ter work: he can obtain greater
privileges. In that way there
will be an incentive to all to dc
better work. These three class
Willmar tribune. [volume] (Willmar, Minn.) 1895-1931, 1896-02-04

es of artificial incentives can be
used in securing better attend
ance, punctuality, behavior, great
er studiousness ON part of schol-
ars at their .seats and better
attention in class. But a word
OF warning is needed. Do not
use indiscrimately but rather
sparingly of them. Make each
of the above named incentives
cover as a large q field of school
work as possible and the more
the incentive covers the better
results it will secure, because
where you have too many prizes,
privileges etc., that can be OBJ
| tanned, they will lose their effect
in securing desired results.
These artificial incentives mar
rows the pupil energies down to
some present and selfish end to
be sought and doesn't make the
pupil look into the future nor
does it develop character as it
should be in fact as a writer has
said, 1T feeds the moral nature
on husks.
With primary scholars it is
difficult to urge them on in their
work by what is called natural
Incentives because their minds
are not so matured that they can
look into the future and see what
will be the natural consequent of
their work and some reward that
can sooner be obtained will have
a greater effect on them. With
the more advanced scholars who
possess more matured minds
and have better Judgment, by
showing them the natural conse-
quences in pursuing certain
courses Of action natural incen-
tlves can be used to great advan-
tage but do not do entirely away
with artificial incentives.
The greatest of natural incen-
tlves are what are called the
Royal Seven. They are: 1st. A
desire for standing or rank of
equals and and superiors; 2. A
desire for appreciation of equals
and superiors; 8. A desire for
activity and power; 4. Adesire
Tor knowledge: 5. The hope of
future good; 6. Sense of honor;
l. A sense Of duty.
These seven incentives are ar
ranged in regard to their impor-
lance in the training of the will
and hence the building of moral
character. The standard of each
one Of these incentives can be
raised or lowered. The desire
for standing may be brought to
a very low plane, so low that it
may be called an artificial incen-
tive. In some cases scholars do
all their hard work on their stud
les simply for standing, and it
often leads to dishonesty, by
cheating in their school work to
obtain the required standing.
The other incentives may be
lowered in the same way; appro.
baton may become self-vanity;
a desire for knowledge may be.
come self qualification, the things
that knowledge will bring; or a
person may have wrong idea
of honor so that the incentive OF
. honor may be lowered.

to prevent the Maaommedan population
