 As health resort it cannot be ex- celled.
 Because it is on the continental di- vide between san Francisco and New Orleans.
 The nights are always cool. There were hu. three nights during last summer that the thermometer did not go below 70 degeres.
 There are thousands of acres oi lpnd that can be had for nothing:

 Its rain fall is always certain anG l. abou. equally divided between the winter and summer months.
 It's public school system is periec' and it's funds are ample for all pur- poses.
 It is on the border line between Mexico and the United States and the trade between tho two countries is large and increasing.
 IL is the only county in the terri tory that has extensive ;urquois fields.
 Its mountain ranges are timbered with pine and juniper which makes excellent timber.
 There is an abundance of water in the mountain streams all of the year
 IL has three valleys traversir 2 it's entire length which are from 20 10 90 miles wide.
 The wage worker receives @ fir compensation for his labor, and for tune awaits those vino will work for themselves.
 No other section of the United States offers so many inducements to those who will coms here prepared to work.
 It is still in it's infancy as mining, stockraisinS or farming co7ntry.
 The extensive coa1 fields just below the line in Sonora will soon be tapped ani anelher railcoad will soon cross ''- % .r......-. |. I.ai, i. rore protective than any other U.I .i.o continent.
 It is the only county In tbc Terri tory which has developed large azd steady flow of ar:esian water.
 I,s newspapers are progressive aHd beleive in the !u,u. of C,ch;s. county,
 There is room foT I0,CGO frmil;cs ;o live and prrspcr on the vacant land- still belonging to the government.

meetings were held in the Baptist
church. On Friday evening the exer-
cises opened with beautiful solo by
Miss Alta Crow, of the Audubon pub.
lie schools. Invocation by Rev. Il
Dickinson was followed by welcom-
ing address by Hon-J. A. Nash. The
kindly words of welcome were respond
ed TO by Prof w. ii. Brinkerhoff in a
manner very appropriate. Following
this, Mrs. Brooks sang solo that was
highly appreciated by the large audience.
The lecture of Prof. Van Ness, of the
Dennison Normal school, was carefully
prepared and was listened to with very
close attention and your reporter, while
not in harmony with much of the lee
ture, thought it quite feast for intel
lect. n benedlction by Rev. Dudley
closed the evening entertainment.
Saturdays session was opened by
the election OF Prof. Johnson, of Extra,
as moderator. Prof. Johnson's paper
Are the Scholarship Requirements of
the Teachers too High 2" was one of the
ablest productions OF the meeting. Mr..
A. M. Gray discussed the Importance
of knowledge of psychology by the
teacher III very clear manner and his
paper was discussed by Miss Lydia
Turner. Prof. Hooker discussed the
advantages of hiring teachers by the
year, which closed the morning SEES
sion.
Afternoon w. II. Lancelot handled
the passive verb in an "active" manner
that showed thorough knowledge
and brought out ageneral discussion.
The sub director was discussed by Prof.
Brinkerhoff and his discussion devel-
oped diversity of opinions as to this
important functionary. +. +. Moore
handled contemplated independent
township system and this discussion
showed q trend of sentiment in favor
of II "a change" Miss Crow read
very timely paper by Miss Dorothy
Jensen ON the demands of the country
schools. 1t was generally discussed
and it was granted both rs point of
numbers and the merit Of the several
papers that were read and discussed
and Miss Turner, as chairman of a
committee on resolutions reported the
following which were adopted unani-
mOusly:
WHEREAS, We the teachers in con
vention assembled, believe it to be u
benefit to us and to our school to meet
and discuss the subjects in which we
are most interested, therefore
BE IT RESOLVED, That we tender
our thanks to the originator Of this
meeting, to the people of Audubon,
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1896-01-23

whose hospitality we have enjoyed, to
10 the Baptist Society whose building
we have used, to Prof. Van Ness, prin-
cipal of the Dennison Normal school,
for the many helpful suggestions In
his lecture, which we all enjoyed, and
to all those who have so kinkly encour-
aged us with their presence.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, IhaI IN
regard to the question Are the Schol-
ship Requirements Of the Teachers too
High" we believe. that the answer
should be in the negative, that 1t Is I'M
possible for the teacher to lead his
pupils higher, or even so high as ne
himself has gone. therefore IL pupils
are to progress the teacher must go
higher.
RESOLVED, That in the light of the
discussion, that 10 be better for the
school, and for the teacher IL the
teachers's contract were made for a
year instead OF for shorter period,
but that there may be circumstances
where it would not be wisest to give
such a contract.
RESOLVED, That we endorse the SEN
timent that the sub director should be
chosen with some regard to his qualiil-
cations for the duties of his office, with
which he ought to be thoroughly &C
quainted, but that scholarship quail
iication is not necessary, and further
more that since to receive no other en-
olument for his services he shall have
our heartfelt thanks for all that he
does for the public school.
