Directors Held Saturday
TALKS BY EDUCATORS
Almost Fifty Citizens from Var.
ious Districts in Attendance

School trustees from practically all
the districts of the county we're In
the city Saturday to attend their first
annual institute. The gathering was
called by School Superintendent P.
NJ. Glanville and proved most prof
table one to all concerned. Discus
sion of vital subjects about educa-
tional facilities and topics of import
ance to school patrons in general
was taken up and many enlightening
and interesting conclusions were
reached. In the course of the meet
ing one or two instances were
brought to light where trustees had
not been accurately posted regarding
details of various measures and mis-
takes had occurred 1t was to remedy
such oversights and fully inform all
the trustees upon the different phases
of the school laws that the institute
idea was put into practice.
Another interesting and valuable
source of information were the ad
dresses by prominent educators from
the Lewiston Normal and the Uni
yersity at Moscow. Copies of these
lectures were furnished to all the
trustees who desired them. The pro-
gram was as follows:
Agricultural Education" Prof
Nicholson, U. of L.; School law
and the Trustees" Prof Talkington,
Lewiston Normal; Music, 7th and 8th
grades of local school; THE Re-
lation of the Rural School to Rural
Welfare" Geo. H. Black, Lewiston
Normal; General Discussion of
Rural School Problems" P. M Clan
vile, county superintendent; "The
Rural High School," Geo. H. Black;
Possibilities of the Rural School, .
Prof. Soulen, U. of l.
One of the matters taken up by the
trustees was the passage of reso-
lutiom urging the board of county
commissioners to provide clerical as
sistance for the school superintend-
ent. This was supported by the trus-
tees because of the great amount of
work the superintendent is called up
en- to do in the performance of his
duties in such large and growing
county as this.
