FOR TEACHERS.

The following is the address
of county examiner, D. D. Spur
lock, to the teachers Of Sharp
county at the opening of our
county normal Monday morning.
Ladies and Gontlemen:-I am
truly glad to meet so many teach
ers and those desiring to be-
come teachers here at this nor
NAL school. hope a large per
cent of the teachers present are
here for the full term. Some
perhaps desire to enter for only
a part of the term, while still
others have come asking to be
excused entirely.
1t is unreasonable to suppose
that all Of the teachers Of the
county can get the full benefit
of the normal school. A few
words first to those asking to be
excused. If your health and the
health of those depending upon
you is good, you must under the
law attend this normal. / am
well aware of the fact that owing
to the low wages received and
the short terms of our schools
great many teachers are COM
PEELED to work at something else
a good part Of their time, and in
our case here in Sharp county
that something else is generally
farming, Then you are men Of
two occupations, one Of a private
nature, the other of a public
character. In private occu-
patton your success or your fail
ure affects yourself alone, and is
only of a pecuniary nature; while
in your teaching you are the SER
wants Of the State, and the State
is interested morally, intellectu-
ally and otherwise in your sue
cess. The State recognizes the
fact that her teachers in the pub
lie schools need normal training

There is plenty Of silver in that coun-

not pay for transportation to be smelt-

copper. I; have picked up chunks of
copper weighing eight pounds. 1t is

The Indians use copper to make bull

SUBMARINE BOATS.
The First Was Invented In 1914 by Van
Drabbel.

The First Was Invented In 1914 by Van
In 1914 Van Drebbel, a Dutchman,
built in London submarine boat which
could contain 10 rowers as we'll as some
passengers, and on one occasion James
descended beneath the Thames in the YES
sel The inventor is said to have discov-
cred liquid possessing the important
property of rendering the air in the confin-
ed space under matches suitable for repeat
cd inhalation and thus to prolong the
time which could be spent under water.
The first submarine boat used in warfare,
1877, was built by David Bushnell, in
Connecticut. 1t was managed by one
man, who could remain 30 minutes under
water Fulton, New Yorker, made one
to hold eight men, who could be supplied
with air for eight hours under water. The
largest submarine boat yet constructed is
the Gustav Zede, belonging to France.
Her length is 131 feet, her speed below the
surface is g. IS knots, and she is propelled
by electricity. On June z, 1890, Lieuten-
ant Isaac Peral, in a submarine boat In
vented by himself, travelled for an hour
under water at Cadiz In 1898 an expert
mental voyage was made with a patent
submerging boat in q London dock, and
everything proceeded admirably till 1t was
time to ascend But then it was found
that the suction of the mud at the bottom
Of the Thames was superior to the lifting
