Educational Journals and Supplies.
Each teacher should be regular
subscriber to one or more educational
papers. The progressive teachers use
the suggestions, methods, type les
sons, etc, for the work during the
month. The book table will have a
full line of supplies.
Iowa Teachers Reading Circle.
The Reading Circle board has made
a choice of books for teachers study
this year which l believe will prove
Interesting to every teacher.
A Brief Course in the Teaching
Process, by Strayer. The Macmillan
Co., Chicago.
The Recitation by Hamilton. The
Lippincott Co., Philadelphia.
Practical Nature Study by Coulter
and Patterson. D. Appleton & Co.,
Chicago.
Each of these books sell for 81 and
may be obtained through the county
superintendent or from the compan-
les. Teachers who have renewable
certificates should do the reading Cir
Gle work and report upon it each year,
thus saving themselves much vexa-
ton and worry when time for re-
newal comes around. Each teacher
should own at least one of these books
for her private library. The questions
in didactics will be based to large
extent on these books. Each teacher
is expected to read these three books
and other good books from our teach
ers' library each year.
Attendance Record.
Each institute patron will be sup
piled with a blank on which to check
attendance. Each attendant shall fill
in carefully, sign and file such rec
ord with superintendent at the close
