NOTES.
Rather hot, as usual, for the norma
ties; nevertheless Monday had an e.
rollment Of fifty students. They found
the instructors in their respective
places ready to be of assistance to then
that help them themselves and anxious
to see all benefited during the session.
Prof. VIM. Massey, superlntende1s
Of the city schools of Wellington. ably
conducted his classes and impressed
each and every one in the reading class
as an up-tO-date teachers, besides Civ
ing valuable information concerning
the first steps of teaching reading. te
inexperienced teachers. Prof. VIM
Fisher. holding similar position in
Arkansas City, made very favorable
impression in his work, especially tC
the Theory and Practice class.
Mrs. uahn has long since won the
approval of all her pupils, so it Is nee4
less to commend her here.
Owing to the vast change made In
our Course of Study 1t behooves al
teachers to not miss this opportunity
of refreshing themselves upon thess
topics, now being thoroughly discuse-
ed.
Especially do we need work in Kansas
History, subject in which we are sk
more er less deficient.
We are truly glad to see 80 manF
familiar faces and hope to see maRF
more, also glad to note the newcomers.
as this shows an honest desire by thA
younger ones to follow in the steps az
knowledge which the elders have pas-
sed.
Come in, county graduates. Your
time is not wasted even il you ara
zoo young or do not not care to teach
Let US one and all strive to make this
time we'll spent.
