of the historic cities of the eastern
section of the state. The instructors
are making themselves felt among
the teachers who are attending the
normal by the skillful and energetic
way in which they present their sub
iects. Each instructor presents his
subject in a most rorceful manner
A model recitation is conducted, thus
showing, especially the younger
teachers, the best way to conduct re
citations. The model recitation is
presented by Mrs. Allen and assisted
by Miss E. M. Bramlette. Prot.
Bate, the instructor of geography,
grammar, health and physics, is an
Instructor of many years experience.
He is taking nothing for granted, but
is presenting each subject with full
force and effect. Prof. Bridgeforth is
the instructor of algebra and history.
The manner in which Prof. Bridge
forth presents the subject of history
shows a deal of forethought. Some
have called history a subject, but
the interest which is being mani
tested in conducting these recitations
will soon have us to forget that his
tory was ever considered a dry sub
Ject. Prof. Hale, the Conductor OF
the institute, is the instructor in the
district school physical culture and
mathematics, besides a general over
sight of the entire work. We are
forced to say that his manner of pre-
senting the different subjects and al
lowing each teacher who so deserves
to express him or herself fully on
each subject, and at the same time
having perfect discipline is Wonder
full. He seems to be a natural lead
er of men, not by force, but by so
presenting his ideas in such a plain
and reasonable way that the most in
attentive will heed to his reasoning
The citizens of Giles County feel in
deed very grateful to the State Super
intendent of Education for sending
the first president of the State Nor
NAL of Tennessee for colored youths
to conduct a normal institute in our
town and thereby aus us to be more
intimately acquainted with him and
his work. We believe that the state
has selected the right man in the
right place. The teachers here from
Chattanooga don't hesitate to express
themselves freely that they are re-
GREETING to lose Prof. Hale as a citi-
zen of Chattanooga, and especially as
a teacher and leader of his people
in that section. The following are a

| the eastern division of the state and
