In the discussion of the papers the
CHAIRMAN caned on the Hon. j. L.
McBsien from the national bureau of
education who advised the teachers
to work together as a unit in demand
ing legislation and said he was for
teaches pensions until there could
be something better, namely better
salaries for better work.
Gov. Allen NJ Fletcher said the
state wiz LOT have done its duty to
the state until it has given something
like teachers pensions. He said
Vermont is paying 100000 annually
for the education of it's children and
100000 for the enforcement of its
laws. This is wrong. The primary
purpose of the educational investiga-
ton was to see if there was a dupli-
cation of effort in the higher institu-
or the state and it had found
there was. He then spoke at some
e sth o. his request for the resigna-
ton of college presidents from the
DO z of education.
Harvey Burbank urged the teach
ers d the report and then pre-
sent a united demand for such chang
es as they thought desirable.
Agricultural Conference.
Prin. A. r. Merrill of Lyndon was
chairman of the agricultural confer
ence held in the Y. M. G. A. reading
room Friday afternoon. The first
speaker was Prof. F. B. jerks of the
University of Vermont, who spoke on
g Agricultural Education in Our Pub
lie Schools and briefly regarding
the Relation of County Agents to
Rural Schools" for Thomas Bradlee
who was unable to be present. He
said that from four schools teaching
agriculture last year we had increas-
ed to nine this year. He believed
the boy shold be allowed to work
with animals as it might reveal to
him work that could prO1itably be
done. These concrete propositions
might awaken an interest that would
put new zeal into his studies. All
school children should not be taught

ing with his classes at Middlebury and
with which he is having remarkable
success. The Grading of Adde'S
cent Pupils, a Plea for a System
which does not Sacrifice the Welfare
of the Pupil to the Subject Matter"
was the topic of a paper by Supt
George S. Wright of ST. Adams, who
advocated marking pupils by what
they were capable of doing not by
fixed standard. Supt Merritt d.
Chittenden of Burlington spoke on
What Studies of the Traditional
High School Course can be Displaced
by a Course in Manual Training and
Home Economics" saying that what
we need is not so much more VOca-
tional schools as one cosmopolitan
high school where the pupil can have
just the correctly balanced course he
needs. Each question was followed
by discussion and some criticism.

agriculture from a vocational stand
point but even the boys and girls OF
the city should be taught something
ABOUT agriculture. Country boys
and girls should have practical in

ed clubs for boys and girls because
it gives them attractive work at
home. In their home undertakings
they may discover where the school
can give them helpful instruction and
also show the children whether they
should remain at home or not. In
teaching agriculture we should teach
a little and teach it well.
Speaking TO the agricultural agent
he said that he was supported en-
tirely Independent from the schools
and his first duty was to work for the
farmers of his county but he could
get into touch with the school child
rem by talking with them and coop
crate with the schools as far as he
can.
A. G. Hurd.
A. C. Hurd of White River juno
ton spoke on "How to Make Country
Life More Satisfying" He has been
trying for the past nine years to
bring the work of the city Y. M. G.
A. into closer touch with the life of
country bows. A majority of the
young people of the country are dis
satisfied with conditions because they
lack pocket money, and with their
social conditions. He had found it
helpful to get successful farmers to
talk to the boys and eXalt the calling
of agriculture. To hear and see an
enter prIslng man who is engaged IN
agriculture does away with the idea
the farmer is a "hayseed." Teachers !
should talk the opportunities OF coun- |
try life and the Libraries should |

attractions of country life The |
adult farmers are not willing to share I
profits with their children who work /
md he told of several instances where /
boys had been driven from the farm
by the stinginess of their fathers.
Many things are possible on the
farm, better out door sports and in
debating contests and
undertakings. One dol
lar spent for the betterment or the
rfrls accomplishes more
real good that $40 on adults.
Boys and Girls Clubs.
E. L. ingalls,, recently appointed
director of boys and girls clubs in

At the close of the afternoon meet
ings 200 automobiles furnished by

MOTION PICTURES AT
THE EXPOSITION

The Montana Exposition Commits
sion has placed with the Montana
Motion Picture Company of Butte a
contract for taking the motion pic
lures to be shown at the Panama
Pacific Exposition in the Montana
Building, every day during the ex-
position.
The motion picture plan of ex-
ploitation has been adapted by prac-
tically all the states exhibiting at the
exposition, and Montana should have
a display second to none. It is In
tended to show in these pictures the
resources and industries of Montana,
together with the historic and scenic
points, the school system, and what
ever. else might be of interest to the
prospective settler.
The motion picture company now
has its camera men in the field, and
any community or enterprise desir-
ing to- be shown should promptly
with the company
at Butte, or with the Exposition Com
mission. The agricultural sections
in particular should act promptly, as
pictures should be secured now while
the crops are at their best.
