THE TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

hNN0 ~ A-a
Judging from the attendance of
teachers and the size of the audiences
which greet the speakers, the insti-
tute each year grows in popularity.
Superintendent Sawyer may well be
proud of the appreciation manifested
by the public in his efforts to provide
both entertainment and instruction.
Nearly every teacher in the county
was present and it is safe to say that
nearly every person in Milford at
tended while the surrounding coun-
try-Matamoras, Millrift and even
Jersey-was well represented.
The instructors and lecturers were
DIR. Charles G. Rounds, of New York,
DIR. Byron w. King of Pittsburg,
DIR. j. T. ROthrock, State Commits

Kemp, of the East Stroudsburg Nor
NAL. Papers were also read by Prof.
S. A. johnson, Miss Marcia Heller,
Arthur Cramer, Miss Helen r. Cook,
Lucian b. Westbrook and Mrs. Ag-
mes Hops. They all displayed
thought and care in preparation and
show that our teachers rank high in
their grasp of the problems which
confronts them in their daily routine.
