INSTITUTE HELD
 AT JACKSONVILLE
ANNUAL MEETING OF ALABAMA TEACHERS IS PRODUCTIVE OF SOME INTERESTING TALKs-AR. ERcRoM5lE AND HILL SPEAK.

Jacksonville, December 19.-(special)- The annual meeting of the Alabama Teachers Institute was held in the college building at this place on the 18th and 18th inst.
 Devotional exercises were conducted by the Rev. George E. Driskel Enrolment and organization resulted in the receiving of several new members into the institute
 The meeting was called to order by the chairman, County Superintendent Persons. The following topics were discussed:
 Report of condition and needs of Cal nouns schools by Superintendent Per sons.
 What Manual Training Can Be Taught in the Rural School?-F. Il. Watson and A. P. Johnston.
 How to Conduct the Recitation-Miss Mary c. Forney.
 Teachers institutes and Associations. What Should They Do? What Do They Do?-J. 5. Finch, N. R. Hall.
 Review of the Educational History of Alabama-Superinten l. w. Hill.
 Necessity and Possibility of Levying the Special School Tax in Calhoun County President C. w. Daugette. Should Teachers Attend the University Summer School?-President J. w. Aber- erombie.
 The Institute adjourned at 10:30 a. m. and President Abercrombie and Supern- tendent Hill left on the southbound South ern at 11:10.
 The address of Superintendent Hill was very strong He reviewed the evolution of education in Alabama from the time of Perry down to Abercrombie, drawing a strong contract between education as it is now and as it was in the period of re- construction, as he said, it was a common sight to see a state superintendent at a country fair swapping horses and giving a frst-grade certificate to boot that he might seal his bargain" He paid a glow ing tribute to the work of President Dau- gette and to Representative Joseph J. Arnold.
 President Abercrombie in his extem- poraneous address argued with great abil- lty the reasons why teachers of Alabama should attend the summer school at the State University. He brought out the point that as the university is a local in- stitution it should be patronized in pref erence to any similar institution outside of the state, and as they intend to se- cure the services of some of the most eminent educators in the south and throughout the United States, and as they intend to teach such text books as have been adopted by the state, the advantage to the students attending he University would exceed that which could be de- rived from any other summer school in the south
