"A SPLENDID NORMAL INSTITUTE.
A Large Attendance, and Instructive
Program at the Institute Held in
Leon Last Week.

There was a large attendance at
the Decatur County Normal Institute
and Decatur County Educational AS
ISOLATION at the two day session held
at the High School building in Leon
last Thursday and Friday, under the
supervision of county superintendent
Miss Mabel Horner, and State lnspec-
tor McGlade said it was as we'll or
ganized as any institute he ever at
tended in the state. The total enroll
ment of teachers was 2l5, and the
teachers who attended were greatly
benefited by the instruction ana
splendid lectures. The program as
published was carried out without a
hitch. The visitors had two splendid
days, and expressed themselves as
we'll pleased, especially with the ar
rangement of the work, so that each
teacher could attend the section in
which they were the most interested,
and not compelled to listen to mat
tiers which they were not teaching
and not interested in.
The Parent-Teachers Association
of Leon served a cafateria luncheon
at the school building on Thursday
and Friday, and on Thursday even
ing supper was served at the M. r.
church and on Friday evening at the
Christian church. One of the best
things of the session was the ad-
dress on Thursday evening on "Amer-
lean Democracy and American
YOUTH by DR.. j. E. Stout, of Cor
nell College, at Mt Vernon. Presi-
dent George Briggs, of Graceland
College, Lamont, also made fine ad-
dress to the teachers on Friday ev-
ening.
(; In connection with the institute
the third annual meeting of the De-
catur County Educational Associa-
ton was held, which was very inter-
esting, and plans were made for
much good work in the future, divid-
ing the special grades into separate
meetings. A meeting will be held
on some Saturday during the year for
High School teachers at Van Vert,
and on another date for the grade
teachers at Lamont, and the rural
teachers at Leon. Plans for study
centers were also made, and special
instructors from the State Teachers
College at Cedar Falls will come to
Decatur county on six occasions to
meet with the teachers and instruct
them on special subjects.
frof. Macy Campbell, an old De-
catur county boy, now director of
Rural Education at the Iowa State
Teachers College at Cedar Falls, met
many cid friends while here, and the
teachers were unanimous in saying
good things about the work which he
presented at the institute.
The following is the enrolment:

Gossip.

Gossip! The very name has a
nasty sound. You'll find her sneak
ing into the stores, the school room,
the churches and societies. You'll
find her masquerading under the
name of friendship. You'll find her
leaning over the back fence or edging
in between man and wife. No place
is sacred to her. She blackens the
character of men and women and of
innocent girls. She ruins the careers
of young men. Suppose a man or
woman is not as you are or as you
may think they should be. Do you
know you are right Let other peo-
pie think as they believe they should
think, whether it is about politics or
religion or morals. Don't gossip
about them. He'll may be paved with
good intentions, but the supporting
pillars are the gossipers.

Not In On Compensation Law.

Iowa Falls, Sept. 2 Teachers are
professional people and not workmen
within the meaning of the term as
used in the compensation act now on
the statute books of Iowa. This point
is ruled on by Henry E. Sampson of
the attorney generals Office, with the
above result. The point was raised
by President l. F. Meyer of Ellsworth
College in this city and the matter
was submitted to Hon. Warren Garst,
the Iowa industrial commissioner. In
commenting on the case, Mr.. Garst,
states that the teachers in Ellsworth
College do not come under the COM
tpensation act and the institution is
not required to protect it's liability to
them by insurance.

THE LID IN ST. LOUIS Thought
some of the readers might like to
know what the st, Louisans did when
Joe Folk closed the saloons on Sun
day all over Missouri. Did they go to
church. They did not! They sat
down in punches and figured out how
to beat the game.
Results: Charters were taken out
and clubs sprung up all over the city.
Some were orderly, some were dis
orderly. Drinks of all kinds were on
tap, not sold or given away. Each
and every one helping himself. Old
men, young men, married and single
regardless of homes, went to the
clubs on Saturday evening, issuing
forth in the wee small hours of Mon
day morning

town. The keepers? Why, the very
politicians who helped close the sa-

Great crowds, both men and wom-

and shooting.
The heartaches, the fear and wor-
ry, drove many wives and mothers
to distraction, while many homes
were broken up entirely. All this be-
cause the husband and father could
not get his glass or "can" near home.
Did the Sunday lid do the city any
good? There are hundreds of vacant
storerooms, flats and apartments
there today.

a lot of dissatisfaction the present

would almost think the public had
taken the mayors prediction prom

little difference in this and the pre-,
