over-rulcd this objection. and proceeded
to count up the vote as was given by the
statement of returns. Application was
also made by Mr. Shanahan to have the
vote Of Harkins recounted on the grounds
of error in counting the vote. The sup
ervisors ruled that they had no authority
to open the ballot boxes or that the re.
count could be made. MIR. Wells was
represented at the hearing by William II.
Harlan and Edwin H. Webster. A larl e
number of persons were present. There
was no bad feeling shown, and on the

with the necessity bringing about no
condition of affairs that would have a
bad effect on the general election.
We give elsewhere in the paper. the re-
suits of the returns from the different

The devotional exercises were led by Pro-

The roll call of the third and fourth dis
tricts was nnswcd with quotations.
Relation of old and new knowledge. How
t the two in neutrality-suspicious.: Miss
Nellie Barron. Call up old facts most
closely related to the new; and so preserve
the old and explain the new. The greatest
waste of time and energy comes from fail
ure to realize that a child cannot acquire any
knowledge detached FROM his experience"
A model lesson In geography was given.
Class: Misses Annie NJ. Shane, Josephine
Nelson. Dora Wits Helen Nelson. Estelle
Mechem, representing the 18th grade.
Miss Partridge continued her talk on read
ing. The ordinary oral reading lesson Is a
slow performance. You should make children
feel that they reading for the benefit of
all the rest of the class. They should not feel
an atmosphere of criticism. Let only the
reader hold the book. Try to make children
lose self consciousness.
Rev. S. S. Greenwich delivered an elo-
qucut address to the institute on Waste
Utility is a law of nature which under
lies and is interviewer with all life. Virtue
is the usefulness of things. There is
no waste IN All IHc universe except
in man, for it is only possible to a free
moral intelligence. 1. Intellectual waste.
Life is our real university-school only the
primary department. Fragmentary reading
Is intellectual waste. Read the best books
until they are part of you, and by your in
tellectual exercise gain control over your
thinking power and your imagination. .,
Waste in emotions. The emotions are as
giants i'm the human sJul. Emotions are
wasteful if they are unw:se. temporary only
and without result in action. Enthusiasm
should be God in Man without inn
mortality would be the greatest waste pos
sible in the universe. Goodness does away
with waste and makes everything work for
life and life more abundantly. A rising vote
of thanks was given Mr.. Greenwich.
Relative value of text books. Lecture and
developing methods. Text book method,
Jennie Grafton. This method leaves little
room for mental activity in the child, but it
gives skill and ability to gain knowledge from
books, and saves time for the teacher" Q
Lecture method. Charles Middendorf. The
text book Is valuable in school, but must
not be used alone. Drawings should not
be used to illustrate lectures" 3-Develop-
ment, Miss Matte NJ. Offley. Keep in mind

illusions by conversation with pupils"
