INSTITUTE REVIEW
b. Mrs. r. S. s,ringtellow

Salmon last week stated that cur |
school ma'ams were the best looking /
bunch of teachers he had raced in /
his work. As an interested spectator /
aud listener ! second the melton and |
win go further with the statement |
that IL was an uncommonly lntelli- !
gent. weil-Gressed and interesting
group OF women. with few men in
cluded Among the women were ear
nest young things who looked as III
they were jus; out OF the class room
themselves. and gray-haired women
with the light OF high purpose in
their faces. All seemed tlied with a
sense sof responsibility In their high
calling as directors Of the destiny OF
our youth. and all seemed eager TO
gather all the information and tnsp4~-
ration offered by the instructors.
II seemed a pity that more OF the
parents did not avail themselves OF
the opportunity to attend the meet
ings as there was much to interest
them. II was Illuminating TO get the
little sidelights on the shortcomings
Of parents from the stand point OF
the teacher. and ! think this one
mother win be better parent here
after for having attended the insti.
tute.
The psdagogues certainly will be
better teachers because OF the high
standards held IN to them BY the IN
structors as the ideal towards which
they should strive. One was impress
cd anew with the thought that the
teachers. especially In the rural dis
trlcss are expected 10 be leaders IN
ALI endeayors for the common good
OF the community in which they 1--we
