Training
1.-The institute will take UP the sub
ject of supervised study as one of the
main points this year." said Mr.. Glenn.
Supervised study simply means that the
methods of teaching child how to study
will be one of the main points in schYol
work this year. l was once told by a
parent that if the school teacher taught
her child how to study she would see
that he recited his lessons. The school
children will have an opportunity dur
ing each period for recitation to pre-
pare their lessons under the supervision
of the teacher. If one can teach a child
how to study in an intelligent manner
the rest of the work is minimized 30
per cent. This method assures each
child of having to prepare his or her
lesson In the proper manner and being
able to recite it perfectly If called upon.
This is an advanced step in education
and is bound to result in greater salts
faction from the standpoint of the teach
err. narent and pupil.
1.-THE school amendment will be tx
planned by Mr.. Bowie in his address to
the teachers Wednesday. The merits OF
this proposition will be gone into thor
oughly and every teacher will be able
to discuss this measure which means
the obliteration of illiteracy in Alabama

ship upon anyone ana it will do more

its corps of conductors. The five days
will be consumed by lectures on various

school, will have charge of the high

the Democratic party has persistently
fought it and especially did the presi-
dent, until confronted with the com
plete breakdown of its revenue system
and it now takes strong ground for a
bipartisan commission.
1t proposes to repeal the Underwood
bill as to the tax on sugar, and vir-
tually comedies the failure of the bill
as a revenue measure, which was the
basis for its enactment.
A bipartisan commission can not be
productive of any definite results.
Let us have a tariff commission, but
let it be composed Of the friends of a
protective tariff, not of its enemies or
hybrids.
Any commission appointed under a
Democratic president, is bound to be
one in accord with the Democratic
idea of revenue tariff only, and
would strike at the very root of the
principle of protection, and continue
the industrial uncertainty.
Demands Larger Army.
The Republican party has for years
insisted on the increase of both the
army and the navy, and the Demo
cratic party has persistently opposed
it. Now that grave questions confront
us, our president and his party change
front entirely on this question. But
they do not do so until they are
brought face to face with the necess

regard either as not being wise
