CENTRAL KANSAS TEACHERS
MEETING.

A large delegation Of Barton eOun-
ty teachers attended the X. c. T. A.
at Hutchinson last week. 1t was one
Of the largest meeting ever hoid in
the district, the enrolment being 742,
an increase Of 100 over lat year. The
program was one Of tho best ever CIV
en- by the association and vas consid-
cred by many as equal to the state
meeting.
Seventy seven teachers enroll
ed from Barton county. Great Bend,
EIhnwood, Chfhn and Pawnee Rock
sent their entire force. The rural
schools were well represented. Bar
ton county won the flag for the fifth
time for the best attendance QOcfud'
ing miIeage). The old flag beng
worn out, an elegant new flag was
presented. The opportunity to attend
this meeting was made possible by
the liberality Of the schOG boards anG
the county superintendent and teach
ers wish to express their appreciation
0 such cooperation.
The addresses were q such gener
al interest that the teachers regrett
ed they could not be given to par
ents as we'll as teachers, it being
evident that home and school mus
unite On educational issues If improve
ment is to be made.
Supt. J. o. Hall of Hutchinson
president of the meeting, gave a time
ly address based mostly on the worE
Of the State Educational Council
which recently met al. Topeka. This
council is representative of TIE teach
ers Of the state and he urged that ev
cry teacher stand by the recOmmen
dations made by Il. He gave figures
to prove that an average child gong
through the Hutchinson schools from
first grade through high school really
spends only One-twelfth Of his tine II
school, this in answer to the state
ment that children are overworked IN
school. He believed that social e.
GEO was more to blame for tagged
out children than burdensOme school
work. Schools are not 2 failure and
the blame placed upon them comes
from the school being checked up fer
the short comings Of home, church an
social training, all OF which are Che
distinctive work of other institutions
than the school. School progress is
most hindered by friction caused from
lack Of restraint and discipline IN the
homes.
Dr.. o. T. Corson lectuned on Are
the Public Schools Fainre?' They
are not. He showed that most Of
the critics Of the school are, in most
cases, people who have failed in
teaching or who purposely misrepre-
sent. The agitation against the
schools has had the good effect Of
bringing the public into sympathy
with the schools. Whenever any work
is shghted In the home, the cry IS
raised that the schools should teach
1t and the schools have responded
surprisingly. Thus we are teaching
cooking, sewing, agriculture, manual
training, manners, ethics, and many
other things not formerly considered
within the school province. Schools
are not what teachers would have
them, but what the people demand.
When the people advance in their
ideas, the schools viii respond. The
greatest argument for the success Of
the schools is the nationwide move
ment IN The interest Of hsAlth end
temperance. which Is due mainly to
faithful teaching Of physiology IN toe
public schools.
