HARFORD'S INSTITUTE.

The Teachers Institute for Hartford county
began it's work in the Court House at IL
O'Clock Monday morning.
Mr.. Wright after pleasant greeting, call
ed the Institute to order. and Rev. s. A. H OBJ
litzcll conducted the devotional services.
Mr.. William L. Robinson, of Bel Air, gave
the teachers a most cordial welcome, extend
ing to them "thc freedom of the town" Mr..
Robinson said the success of the school sys-
tenn in Hartford is due to its executive officers
who have ALWAYS been selected because Of
their special fitness. He thinks teachers
should pay particular attention to character
building. First establish high sense Of
honor In pupil; do not wait until the child
has reached the higher grades to do this, the
age of seven is the most susceptible period of
life. DO not discourage dull or stupid stu
dent, as you cannot limit forshadow the
career of an American boy or girl.
Mr.. c. S. Brumbaugh. of the Bel Air High
School, on behalf of the teachers graciously
thanked Mr.. Robinson for the hospitality so
generously extended. We teachers ap-
preciate these words of welcome and sympa-
thy of the people more than any thing else.
The interest of people in the schools is the
key note to education today. Teachers must
look more to the needs of the people and try
to meet thcm-as about Il of the population
of Hartford is in the schools.

Mr.. Lynch's Grand Scheme.

The proposal to change our we'll
matured plans for n high school and erect
three ouch schools in different parts of
the city. instead of one great central
school. seems to The Times-Dispatch to
be most unwise. 1t is certainly at
variance with modern ideas of educa-
tional progress. For the past several
years. the cry throughout the school dis
tricts of Virginia has been concentration
In many instances where there were
several inferior schools in q %neighbor-
hood they were consolidated into one good
results nave been made notable.
Richmond has grammar schools in all
parts of the city. and the buildings are
conveniently located. But there IS no
need for more than one high school To
establish and operate three high schools
would be to dissipate our means and
energies. and to add greatly to the cost.
In addition to the buildings, there would
be three corps of officers and teachers,
q separate equipment for each school and
"A triple expense all round.
Moreover. what would we do witt the
Ian we have acquired and the building
plans which have been obtained after so
much trouble and cost?
Let Us by all means adhere to the orig
inal plan and have n first-rate high
school instead of three inferior ones. If
Richmond has any money to spare, let
her give more compensation to her poorly
paid teachers, instead of erecting three
new buildings where one is Sufficient,
and needlessly adding to the number Of
teachers to be paid.

Overwhelming Prosperity.

According to figures recently sent out
from New York, ten years ago our yearly
production Of coal was ITO, 100000 tons,
INK We thought It q heap. Last year we
mined Acc. 900, 600 tons. In 1896 we produced
s,!60o,oo tons OF plgiron. Last year we pro-
duced 100000 tons. Our copper output OF
ten years ago was 240,o0o,000 pounds. 1t Is
now 0 100000 pounds. In 1896 we dragged
from the bowels Of the earth minerals
and mineral substances worth about $685.
100000. The value Of our mineral product
in 1906 approximates s2.OOo.oo,OOO.
When we add to this the abundant har-
vests and the enormous increase In the
volume of our manufacturers. 1t is no
wonder hat the whole country should be
clamoring for capital and that the rail-
roads should be unable to accommodate
the traffic that Is crowding upon item.
The question that is now troubling us Is
how we ara to take care of our produc-
ton. We are fairly overwhelmed with
prosperity. 1t Is a unique situation.

The Times-Dispatch has already given
this hint to tho farmers of Virginia The
State will have thousands and tens OF
thousands of visitors his year, and they
must be fed. Virginia farmers should
supply the stuff. 1t will be profitable to
them and a credit to the State. This is

Gently discarded the wife of his youth,
has been devoted in his attentions to a
chorus girl. and the morning papers OF
yesterday gave various columns to inter-
ested speculation on the time. place and
probability OF a wedding. VIII It occur
in France, where the lady is now occu-
plying a chateau which once housed a
Bonnparte?-New York World.
These publications may be disgusting
to many good people, n the newspapers
are condemned for giving such publicity
to n man and women who are unworthy
of public notice. But there Is another
side to the story. Mr.. Corey n Miss
Gilman are advertised the world over.
The story OF their disgrace has been
published far and wide, and their pic
lures have been held up to the public
gaze. Wherever they go they are
known. and the people turn and look
upon them as they pass along. They
are in the public eye all tho time, and
they cannot hide. Whenever they take
their walks abroad, they parade their
shame, and the finger of scorn is pointed.
1t is a terrible punishment, but 1t Is
also a terrible warning, and the news
papers are quite willing to shoulder their
responsibility. There is M terror to evil
doors like publicity.

Ugly School

The Atlanta Georgian is making war
on the "unbcautiful schools" of that
city, and in 50 doing is doing we'll. "To
most children says our contemporary,
tho mere duty of going to school is one
of entire sufficient unplcasantness. Hav-
ing to go to such looking schools as some
of the Atlanta horrors is an unkind aggra-
walton of q stern duty. The reverse Of
this should be true, Tho duty of going to
school should be made as nearly 81 pleas
ure as possible"
Tint is only half the story. Our school-
houses may be made ~thorousnly comfort
able. and yet may be entirely devoid Of
any commentators: and too frequently
that is the case. even In tile best OF our
schools. Tho schoolroom should be a
place of development, not only of the in
~tellect, but of the taste anil the artistic
nature of the child. To that crd tho
schoolroom should be thoroughly clean
and comfortable, and, in addition, should
with works of art. The Timcs-Dispatch
had that aim in view when 1t offered
famous statuary to the public schools Of
Richmond and vicinity. Teachers and
children took a lively interest in the con-
test, and It is to be hoped that this will
be the beginning of a movenen: in the
interest Of school decoration which will
