B|ERY SPEAKS OF
BLACKBOARD USES
Tells Teachers that Employ.
ing Such Methods Aids
the Students.

The auditorium of the high school
monthly gathering of tLa members of
the Wayne County teachers institute.
C. J. Biery, Ohio state examiner of
public schools, gave the principal adj
dress at the afternoon session, choos-
ing for his subject, the possibilities OF
using the blackboard. The afternoon
opened with separate Elac'.ass among
the several departments. but the joint
meeting commenced ~ quarter after
two.
The topic of .Ir. Bicrv'S talk was
"A Latent Power OF tho Teachers
His ideas were addressed primarily, OF
course, to the instructors in the
grades, but he stated that hlgn school
children were just as much interested
in pictures as the little ones were.
The chief use of the blackboard is to
hold an idea in the pupils brain. To
show this he cited the example, that
mental arithmetic was coming back
into favor among teachers, because it
compels the student to keep the con-
ditions of problem in mlnd In the
same way the blackboard works Mr..
Biery asserted that one of the most
helpful uses of the boar,l was to cor
rect common childish errors. He told
OF how one Ohio teacher KEEP her phi
pills from saying 'ain't." By putting a
catch phrase illustrating the incor-
rectness of the work on tHe black
board. He added that teachers need
not be afraid to put the wrong use of
words in front of the students as is
commonly imagined, for the IessoL is
driven home if the children are shown
that it is wrong.
Mr.. Biery also condemned the pres
ent system of studying literature, un-
der which plan book is analyzed and
torn to bits. In this way, he said, the
best literature is often made distaste-
full to the youths. He said people
should enjoy the natural beauty of a
poem before an analysis.

II. A. Pettijohn says that the affair is
going to be the best in the history of
the association. An elaborate menu has
been prepared for the occasion, and
several speeches will add to the liveli-
ness of the evening.
F, A. z. kumler a prominent attor-
ney from Dayton, O., has promised to
be the principal speaker of the day,
and is preparing an address of special
interest to lads. Most of the other
talks will be short and probably ex-
temporaneous. One of the features
of the occasion will be the presenta-
tion of trophies captured by the sew
eral classes last year. A loving cup
will be presented to the team that
won the Bible class cha pionship in
basketball last year, and pennants
will be awarded to the classes that
had the best attendance, best average

mas awarded in the examina tions last
spring, and the highest average grade
received in these tests. The diplomas
for those who succeeded in these ex-
aminations will also be presented to
the winning scholars at this time
Secretary Pettijohn is confident
that the Bible classes this year will
break all past records for both atten-
dance and the quality of work accom-
plished. One hundred and twenty-five
boys have already enrolled for the
classes. and this number will doubt
lessly be increased before the work
begins.

AN APOLOGY GIVEN
FOR NAVAL ACTION
Italy Tells Austria She Is
Sorry for Activity on
the Seas.
(National News AsSociation)


ROME. Oct Italy apologized to
Austria today for the naval activity 1t
has been displaying on the coast of
European Turkey since the war with
Turkey broke out. The apology fol
lowed an open threat from Vienna OF
AN Austrian, demonstration in Italian
waters unless there was prompt ex'
PLANTATION of the bombardment OF San
Giovanni De Medua. From the first
Austria has been displeased with
Italy's disposition to carry its cam
paien from Africa to Europe. The
San Giovanni De Medua affair was
the last straw.
Italy is probably not much afraid OF
the Austrian navy but it was realized
that the threatened naval demonstra.
ton might be accompanied by an in.
vasion by land from the north. Italy
is not prepared to face such de.
vclopment. 1t was accordingly prompt
with its explanation that the Italian
commander. who bombarded San Clio
yarni De Medua had grossly exceeded
his instructions would be severely rep
rimanded and that King Victor had
decided to withdraw all ships from
the waters of European Turkey as an
assurance that the incidence would
not be repeated.

ACCEPT HIS ADVICE
School Boys Agree with Will
liams of Fighting.

When county superintendent of in
structlon c. y. Williams made the
statement the other day that there
hardly anticipated the force of his
statement. Since then he has received
reports from several of his teachers
to the effect that whenever kid
scrap takes place, the offending pu-
pills advance as their excuse. boys
should fight and cite the superin-
tendent for authority.
The superintendent has explained to
his teaching force that his position on
the question is that while boys ought
to be able to fight that they should
not make it a daily practice. simply
for the sake of fighting. The posi-
ton he takes is that boys should pos
sess both the nerve and the ability to
make defense, when defense is neces-
sary. He has explained to the teach
ers that boys who showed a disposi-
ton to stand by their guns" and not
be bullied by other lads. are the ones
who can be counted on to make bus
mess success when they become men.
The superintendent has stated that
it is rather delicate situation for one
to develop the belligerent nature of a

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

the initiative and referendum
The house yesterday formally &C.
cepted the senate amendments
and it is now up to the people In
November, 1912.
The house has answered the
senate inquiry propounded last
Saturday on the eight+hour law
for women: els the house con-
trolled by the fish Industry"
Labor advocates asked the SEN
ate to pass the same law that got
through the house, which exempt
ed the fish and fruit industries
from the operation of the eight
hour limitation.
''This is all the house will stand
for" they told the senate. But
the senate refused to be dictated
to.
"Tho principle of the eight=hour
law is either good or bad. If 1t is
good neither the fish industry nor
the fruit canneries should be CIV
EN- special privileges, contended
the senate. And so the bill was
passed with the special class legis-
lation of the house being stricken.
The bill will of course go to a
conference committee between
both houses. And the conference
committee will have to accept the
'dictation of the fish industry.
There is no time to hope for any,
thing else. Too much conference
may result in no eight-honr law
at all.
