Friday afternoon only a short session
was held and the addresses were in the
form of farewells.
To estimate the good the teachers
have derived from this week of ming
ling together, not only professionally
but socially, is not easily done.
There is always that indefnable
something about school work that
lends a spur to all we do and while a
teacher gives part of himself he can
feel well repaid if one pupil turns out
to be a success in life.
The teachers OF Ohio and many other
states have learned to know and love
the high, exslting. ennobling work of
Warren Darst.
Prof. r. w. Solomon has been a
most faithful worker in the interest of
the teachers of the county and he leaves
his chair to his successor, Prof. s. L.
Smith, with the well wishes of every
member of the Association.
Prof. Houck has shed sunshine all
along his way for years and Logan
county teachers have bottled some OF
his brightest rays for use this ensuing
school year when the tired brain al
most refuses to work and the days seem
long and dark and dreary.
Prof. John MacKinnon has labored
faithfully to lay down the law to the
teachers and we will all go to work
this year feeling that the teacher
rights are being looked into and pro.
vided for better than ever before.
Professor MacKinnon is in true sym
pathy with all his co-workers and hi,
work at the Institute was duly appreci
ated and more tnan sati sfactory.
The teachers owe a debt of gratItud,
to the untiring efforts of Mr.. G. F.
Heath. of the Executive committee
There is always much unobserved and
necessary labor devolving upon SOM
one at every assembly. Mr.. Heatl
has been Jealous and faithful in every
thing that could lend success to tn,
meeting and the teachers appreciat,
his work.

The Republican has good news for its
readers today. BellefOntaine people
take pride in the rapid growth the
city has made as a railroad center and
any improvements made by the COM
panies passing through here are gladly
noted by our people. The latest in
formation is the decision of Big Four
officials to install fine train service
on the Sandusky Division of the line.
There will be three through trains
each way beside the present trains to
run between Detroit and Cincinnati
The trains north bound after leaving
this city viii go by way of Carey over
the Hooking Valley to Toledo and
from there by the Michigan Central to
Detroit. This viii give a splendid
through service. All trains will be
made up of Pullman coaches, all bran
new, and will carry dining cars.
The new schedule will go into effect,
it is understood, ON September 4.
