TEACHERS WERE nCxLED.
Seven-C County Joint institute Was
Much to Their Liking.

At the joint teachers institute he
in Pocatello week before last. the TO
lowing commendatory resolutions wer
adopted:
We, the teachers of the sevel
counties Of southeastern Idaho, in join
institute assembled, wish to take thi
opportunity to express, not formal,
but most sincerely, our appreciation t.
those who have made possible this, tbs
largest and most enthusiastic meeting
of educators ever held in the state OF
Idaho.
We believe the greatest credit is due
our county superintendent and also the
able assistant they selected as conduct
or. Their wisdom in the selection of
capable and beneficial instructors and
in the arrangement of the program has
been felt in every session.
The enthusiastic instructors have
brought to us, from the extremes of
our great nation, not only practical and
helpful suggestions for our school work,
but have rendered US an even greater
service in inspiring us with the dignity
and opportunities of our profession.
The presence Of our state superintend-
cnt Of public instruction, and Of repre-
sentatives of our state institutions.
was another source Of inspiration, and
we feel that, whether new in the state
or of long residence, we have great
opportunity as well as duty in sup
porting to the best of our ability our
state system of education aud the insti-
tutions which form part Of it.
We also appreciate very greatly the
hospitality of the people of Pocatello,
especially the ladies who arranged the
reception, the Commercial club for
their conveyances. and the managers
of the Auditorium for the use Of their
building. The concession made by the
o. s. L. r. r. in granting reduced
rates undoubtedly added to the numbers
in attendance, and is also much appre-
ciated.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
The esprit de corps brought about by
this joint institute is matter of vital
Importance ank its benefits to education
n southeastern Idaho cannot be over
,stimated. 1t is to be deeyly regretted,
however, that some teachers have not
walled themselves of this splendid OPP
,ortunity for professional and social
development. No step hasa ever been
AIKEN in the cause of education that
las don so much toward uuiting firmly
he interests and aims Of education in
outhern Idaho as has this joint insti-
ute. The spirit Of cooperation has
