The County Institute.

The Lincoln County Teachers In.
spirational Institute opened Monday
morn at 8 O'Clock in the High School
Assembly room with DIR. w. A. Clark
head OF the department of pedagogy
in the Normal at Kearney, Nebr., as
conductor.
DR.. Clark has introduced some new
and very into testing topics for discus
sion at the Ground Table" classes as
well as during his lectures on Theory
of Education and Elementary Psyche
logy. There is 10 time wasted with
DIR. Clark in charge.
Prof. James L. Lardner who has
charge of the classes in Orthoepy,
American Literature, English Com
position and Reading has for several
years been at the head of the school
OF expression at the Dakota Wesleyan
University. His reading from Riley
ana Dunbar during the opening TX.
~ercises have been greatly enjoyed by
the teachers.
Miss Grace Greves, primary critic
at the Kearney, Nebr., Normal School,
is again a member OF the faculty hav-
ing charge of the music, drawing and
primary methods. Miss GreveS is very
popular with Lincoln county teachers
who are glad to avail themselves OF
her excellent instruction again.
The attendance has been excellent
from the first due to the preparatory
work of Superintendent Lawrence
who has a to be proud of SO
many diligent teachers.
Mr.. e. e. Ryan representing the
Dixon & Hanson Co. of Chicago, has
teachers reference books on display
but he states that the teachers are so
very busy attending classes from eight
in the morning till four, that he has
little opportunity to speak his little
piece with regard to the merits of his
books.
Mr.. John Tjaden, deputy Co. Treas
urer, visited during the afternoon lect-
nres Tuesday. 'Tis hoped he won't be
entirely frightened out Of visiting in
stitutes by the notable fact of the
minus quantity of the gentlemen of
the rod. That minus quantity is
made up in quality.
Superintendent Lawrence was a
very busy man Wednesday, holding an
eighth grade examination for those
who failed to quite make the grades
in the first examination which was
extremely hard.

One very noticeable feature of the
assembled force of teachers of Lib
coin county is that they are about one
quarter Canton high school graduates
and the majority of the teachers are
either graduates of G. Fl. S. or Angus
tana Normal department which speaks
well for Canton's institutions of
learning.
Rev. Davis of the Baptist church
| visited classes Wednesday afternoon.
Other visitors on Wednesday were
Misses Alice and Eva Conklin, Jessie
Roderfck and Vera Lewis.
