HOW TO TEACH TO READ.

In teaching reading. there are
just two ends to be sought: to
make the pupil quick in the recog-
milton of word and letter forms and
values, to secure his interest in the
content of the printed forms. Both
these aims must be kept steadily
in view by the primary teacher,
for, although the pupils ability to
recognize promptly and accurate
ly, printed and written words, is
the main thing to secure at first,
yet at the same time this recogni.
ton is greatly aided by the feeling
of interest aroused by the content
of the words.
Therefore, learning to read can
not be a purely mechanical pro-
cess, even in the first lesson. From
the very beginning, the words
used to make a reading lesson
must express thought Of interest
to them. In teaching primary
reading, there are four methods in
use; phonic, abe, word and SEN
tence method. The abe method
begins by teaching the child his
letters" and after he learns them
so that he can name any Of them
at sight, he is drilled upon spell
ing combinations ofthem in words,
such as cat, rat, bat, ct cetera, and
the next step after that is to read
This method is uninteresting,
unnatural, and wasteful of time
and energy. The phonic method
is better, because it teaches the

OUTSIDE COOPERATION.

rieS
OUTSIDE COOPERATION.
When considering the needs of
Our schools it is TO me very evil
dent that the interest and personal
supervision of the trustees would
be one of the greatest and most
immediate helps.
The trustees who visit their
school, show an interest in the CON
dition of the buildings, qualifca-
tions of the teacher, Improvement
of the pupils, and in the supplies
and expenses, are, I regret to say,
few and far between. Mr.. Harmed
of Oakland has been cited as
model trustee and Mr.. Wolf of Red
House as his equal. One who
taught at the latter place some
years ago saying of the trustee
named, as follows: He was suffi-
ciently interested to lose money in
order to visit his school. The
teacher was upheld in the right,
encouraged in depression, advised
IN difficulty, while the pupils did
better work and became more in
terested.' To Mr. Wolf, the leach
er gave the credit for the success
Of the year.
Too often the buildings are neg,
leCted and the mail in time" left
out works as great damage as the
proverbial stitch. Too often these
men keep the ease lees) and forget
the trust. Too often the entire
term has elapsed before one thinks
of visiting the school.
In one case, the reply to inquir-
les concerning no visits from trus-
tees being, When things 90
wrong, I'll be on hand" Why not
come around and help US to keep
things going right?
And a word to the parents: Why
do YOU not come out to see and
hear what is done and said to your
little ones? Have you reasons or
only excuses to give for your non
appearance? Are YOU of those
who have not time to visit the
school, but have hours to spend
gossiping and telling and hearing
tales unfit for the ears of upright
men and women?
Residents Of each school district
are very anxious to secure a con
scientious, pains-taking teacher
for their school, but are not will
ing to encourage or assist in these
ways. Pupils would advance,
teachers would work more success
fully and he schools of Our county
would reach higher plane, were
the patrons to prove their interest
by their personal visits.
Come, then, to see us. Find
out if the story of partiality told
by Johnnie, is true See for your
self that your children are in the
care of teachers who are trying to
lead them onward and upward
