How CAN I GET THE Mosr Our OF A TEACHERS MEETING?

How CAN I GET THE Mosr Our OF A TEAcHER's MEETING? The following is an extract from an article in the March humber, of The School News and Practical Educator.
 l. Study the program.
 l. Before the meeting.
 2. During the session.
 3. Afterwards. l. Searching for these items. l. The matter presented.
 2. Its unity or lack of it.
 3. What the author ie
 seeking.
 4. What means he is using to secure it. 5. What success he has in his efforts.
 Study the program before the meeting to know what it offers and to collect ones material fol proper interpretation in the hearing. Much of a program 4 value is frequently lost because no such provision is made. One may with great profit set up provisional aims and forecast probable results>
 Of course one should study the program in the rendering. Then appears the authors view, the end she sets up, the matter she uses, and the ends she seeks. Then is seen her analysis of the topic. This is the occasion fol outlining the thought as gotten through one's own interpretation of what is heard.
 Study after the meeting is from one's own notes, a sort oi review to select and to emphasize the points worth while, to plan for trying out the suggestions noted. and to build them into one's own school possession.
 Any teacher may study the program for it's theories or ita arts, it's instruction or its inspira- gtion, its facts or its principles. He will get in some degree that for which he seeks.
 If attendants upon institutes and county associations are there with such thoughts in mind. value will be found in every pro- gram, and there will be few who will find these gatherings un- interesting or lacking in stimulus to.thought or in things worth the trying.

REPORTS OF BIG CROP
Stimulates Business Of All kline S
In Middle West

J.. A. Furlong of Minneapolis.
secretary of the Valentine-Clark
Company arrived in this city sun
day and is visiting E. l.. Clark ans
family.
The Nalenline-Clark compan
is mainly engaged in furnishing
poles for the railroads and Mr.
Furlong, through his connection
with the company is in clos
touch with the railroads and ths
general business interests of the
Middle West.
He says that the wheat croi
throughout the middle west j.
much larger i'm acreage than j
previous years and promises j..
big yeild per acre. A year ae
when the drouth in Oklahoma
Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa ami
southern Illinois killed the corn
crop the farmers at once plowcd
up the fields and sowed winter
wheat. The fall rains came o,
nicely and there was aine stan
of grain.
The weather conditions this
summer have been excellent ami
the wheat is now beyond any pos
sible danger, and promises to be-
the largest crop in years.
The promise of bountiful crops
has compelled the railroads lr
make preparations for moving il
and they have been obliged to or.
der more cars and equipment anc
thus have helped the steel bus
ness.
The promise of large crops has
induced the retail lumber mer-
chants throughout that section q,
place orders for lumber in ant
cipation of more building by lLe
farmers and this has stimulate
business along all lines.
Tie says that this increase i'm al.
kinds of busines has been very
marked during the past two weeks
and he expects this increase to Doe
more marked as the harvest pro-
ceeds and especially as the rail
road companies begin to move iar
crops.
There is no apprehension of q
closenes i'm money. A year ago
the government put money into
the farming regions to help move
the crops and it is anticipated
that it will do so again if it Is
needed.
On the whole he thinks that the
prospects are very bright for a
good increase in business in all
lines for the balance of the year

panied by the band and is expect
ed To reach Coeur d'Alene about

Alene in the afternoon and will ac
company the Colfax and barge
