Nothing is too good for our teach
ers. Let us extend them the glad
hand this month.
If you know some feller's faillngs
Just forget EN- cause you know
That same feler's got some good points,
Them's the ones you ought to know.
Cast your loaves out on the waters.
They'll come backs sayin' true.
Maybe they will come back b1ttered
When some Teller boosts for you.
The teacher who never makes a
mistake is the one who never does
anything.
Finish every day and be done with
1t. You have done what you could;
some blunderS crept in-forget them
as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a
new day. You shall begin it we'll and
serenely and with too high spirit to
be encountered with your old nom
sense.
Progressive schools demand pro-
gresslve teachers. A progressive teach
er must have the opportunity to hear
and to learn the soundest methods
now employed. You will have this
opportunity at the Seward Normal
Institute. 1t costs something, but
will you not get value received? IN
less for some very serious reason we
hope no one who expects to teach in
Liberal will be absent from the Nor
NAL. If trouble comes to you this
year in your school the very first
thought that will come into our mind
will be "did that teacher attend the
Normal and learn how to manage
just such things In the school room?"
OF course, if you are going to lay off
this year and not teach, just rest,
why, we do not expect you to come,
but we do expect everyone who is
planning to teach this year in Seward
county to come TO this month Of
school and methods and get new in
spiratiOn for your school.
Elmer Tucker called on business
for his district No. 26. August Seidle
was also business caller.
Mr., Mann of our city also made us
short call. His son, Burton, who
taught in Stevens county last year, is
attending the Normal and is expect
ing to teach again this year. We
hope he may get school in Seward
county this year. He has fine re-
commentator from his former school
board.
Last Tuesday afternoon the faculty
of the Normal Institute took all those
students studying agriculture to the
Bolln- Hall Mill and inspected the
wheat and flour and the mill. They
were getting posted for the wheat
special that went through Liberal
last Thursday morning. They very
generously told us to call on them for
a sack Uf -four when we started on
our cooking lesson next week. Sever
al members of the class said the Pride
of Liberal flour was used in their
homes and they made excellent bread
from the -four Others said they could
not make good bread at all. Some OF
the teachers said they must stir the
sponge thicker than with other fiopr.
Others said you had to use the right
kind Of yeast. Miss Viva Jones, who
will teach in Antelope Valley this
year said they could make splendid
bread from the flour and she would
bring loaf to class for inspection.
We think Mrs. Anderson also prom
ised a loaf. Here is hoping the Pride
of Liberal will make A No. l bread.
r. L. Neff, clerk Of District No. IA,
Bell, made us pleasant call, Tues
day. Mrs. Mary Sliger has been
hired to teach the Blue Bell school
for the coming year. We wish her
the best Of success.
Misses Grace and Carrie Hall are here
from Minneola, attending the Nor
NAL. They each have a school and
certificate, but they want to get some
new ideas for their schools this year.
They heard Of our Normal and good
Instructors so they came to Liberal.
We welcome them to our Normal.
