Resolutions.

The following resolutions were
adopted at the Teachers Institute
held here the week beginning June
9th, 1902:
ResOLUed. That we, the teachers
of Mason County believe that the
taxes on the income of corporations
and the other revenues now accru-
ing to augment the school fund
cannot be used for better pur-
pose than they are now used. and
that We therefore believe it would
be unwise to pass the fourth pro-
posed amendment to our constitu-
ton upon which the people of the
State shall vote next fall.
ResOLUed, That we ask the Leg
islature to enact a more efficient
compulsory school law.
ResOEved, That the Board of
Education of the different districts
of Mason county exercise their
best judgment and care in select
ing school trustees.
ResOIUed, That the county be
the unit of taxation rather than
the district.
RESOLVED, That we are in favor
of the present school law for the
adoption of the different text books
to be used in the different counties.
ResOLUed, That we have received
great benefit and pleasure from the
lectures given by our efficient in
structors, Profs. Sanford and Riggs,
and that our thanks are extended
them for their untiring effort in
our behalf. That we appreciate
the presence and pleasant talks of
the State Superintendent of
Schools, Prof. Shawkey, Barbe and
Others, who added largely to the
pleasure of our Institute.
ResOLced, Further, that we de-
sire to thank the good citizens of
Point Pleasant for their hospitality
and the interest manifested in cur
work.

tend our thanks and appreciation

ResOLued, And last but not leAs +,
that our thanks be rendered to orr
worthy County Superintendent for
his unfailing courtesy and devo-
ton to the interests of the teach
ers, not only during this Institute,
