At 7:30 the regular program
was given at the Presbyterian
church. Over two hundred peo.
pie were present. The long pro.
gram was accorded excellent at
tention throughout. Some excel
lent papers were read. The liter
arv and musical exercises were
much appreciated. The length Of
the program lessened the oppor.
tunity for general discussion by
limiting the time for each subject.
This was unfortunate as the dis
cussions axe often the, best feature
of the association.
At the close of the general pro-
gram, the association adjourned to
the school house to spend the time
until train time.
The question box and round ta-
BILE discussions under the leader
ship of Supt. Rosebrough were
interesting features Of the program
at the school house.
Before adjourning the teachers
expressed in a formal way, their
thanks to the people Of Amity and
the teachers at Holly for the gen.
erous entertainment provided.
The short time remaining until
train time was spent in visiting
the different rooms of the Holly
schools.
The next association will be
held IN Lamar, April 28.
