TEACHERS INSTITUTE,
Work of the Session Very Effective aud
Much Enthusiasm Aroused.

The Cumberland county Teachers
Institute closed Friday after a most
interesting two weeks session. Most
of the teachers remained in town over
Saturday to use the printing outfit 10
making charts, perception cards, and
number tablets for their school equip
ment.
During the Institute the teachers
were favored with some splendid ad'
dresses by Rev. Hall, Rev. }. %
Spiers. of Richmond, Va, Judge Snod
grass. Judge McListar, of Nofristowr,
Tenn. Rev. Ballard, Prof. Stahl, of
Virginia Polytechnic Institute, and NJ
l.. Taylor.
Prof. Sowder Instructor in Agricul-
ture in the East Tennessee State Nor
NAL College, was here for one week
and gave two practical lectures each
day On projects relating to the teach
ing of agriculture in the elementary
schools.
On Thursday the teachers made an
auto trip to the new Experimental
fsrui, where the county agent, Mr.
Adsmund. explained the experiments
being conducted in the raising OF corn,
soy beans and millet.
In addition to Prof. Sowdre the fol
lowing teachers gave instruction: Prof.
Frank March, Arithmetic, Physiology
and Hygiene, History and School Man
agement; Prof. Vincent, Grammer
and Discipline; Prof Albertson,
Arithmetic, Grammer, School Manage
ment ; Miss Helen Dickson, Geography,
and Discipline; Mrs. e. E. Reyes,
Methods in Second Grade; Mrs. j.
Dunbar Methods in Third Grade; Mrs.
Emelia C. Albertson, Primary
M ethods, Handwork, weaving, card
board construction, drawing, sewing,
gardening, songs. stones, and games.
Miss Burke Manning, demonstrated
clay modelling and sand table work.
Prof. Sowder said that in an eXper-
fence of eight years in summer instl-
tutes, he had never seen such splenc Id
work IN Primary Methods as was given
here. Several of the teachers who
have attended six weeks courses at
summer normals, said they had gotten
more benefit in Primary methods from
this two weeks course than from any
six weeks course.
Much emphasis was placed on school
equipment for the Primary Grades,
and the teachers were enthusiastic in
making reproductions of homemade
phonic, reading and number charts,
perception cards, and patterns OF hand
work, for use in their schools.
The School Board in its meeting,
Saturday was addressed Is Plo.. S.
w. Sheriff. Elk. State Superintendent,
who presented a new chart of Agrlcul-
ture. Live Stock and Home Econom
les. Two of these charts have been
purchased for use in the schools OF
each district and will, with the help
of the county agents, and the teachers
do much to spread the facts of scleE-
tifc agriculture IN the schools and the
hol es in this county.

THRIFTY BRITAIN.

In the division Of the colonial and
island territory taken from Germany
by the world war, England secured
nearly one million square miles. she
is also making strong demands for IN
demnity from Germany and is sure TO
receive a generous slice of the five Dill
lions in cash that Germany must pay
the first five years.
Nor is that all: She is now raising
the sunken German fleet at Scapa
Flow, for under the laws of nations
she has perfect liberty to slavage that
two hundred million fleet, and Is now
actively at work and expects to have
it all riding the waves by 1920.
England wisely looks out for the ma
terial DEMENT'S in every war In which
she engages, and it is noticeable fact
that the British lion usually carries off
the lion S share.
Will some wise one tell US what
your Uncle Sam is to get from the war
aside from debt of many billions?
No one yet knows if we will get any
thing to- in any way reimburse US for
the American vessels Germany sunk.
We did get big lot of blubber and
meaningless chaiT in the form of a
draft of a league Of nations, which If
accepted threatens to very greatly
hamper our freedom as a nation. But
it Is not vet written in the books that
we intend to stick our head into the
moose.

Dig!

1t is seldom that men discover rich
mines without digging. Nature COM
monty lodges her treasures and jewels
in rocky ground. If the matter be
knotty and the sense lie deep, they
must stop and buckle to it, and stick
upon it with labor and thought and
close contemplation, and not leave it
until they have mastered the difficulty
and got possession of the truth
Locke.

1t is universally amitted that when
the railroads are turned back to the
owners provisions must be made for
higher freight rates in order to M
sure the necessary repairs, maintain
upkeer, and meet the enormous labor
bill resting on the roads,
The time has passed when it will be
popular to abuse and cry out against
railroads as eXtortionlsts and being
the great public robbers, as used to
be the cry. Railroads, in common
with other property, must be treated
right and given a chance to live CT
the public must suffer great inconyen-
fence and business be much hampered
thereby.
The business interests of the country
recognise these things and will very
likely accept the rates decided upon
without complaint.

Substitute for Gold.

It Is said that a serviceable substi-
tute for gold is obtained by combining
% parts of copper with six parts OF
anthony and adding little magnesl-
UNI carbonate to increase the weight.
It is said that this alloy can be drawn,
wrought and soldered very much ike
gold and that it also receives and re-
tains golden polish. 1t is worth
something like % cents Wound.

Prices: $50 to $4,000

One of the strong points about the Wat
erman is, it MUST write and MUST do it
with ease and comfort and give PERFECT
satisfaction or you get your money back.
Come in and try one. That will cost
you nothing. If you want to buy, we will
get any style Of pen you want, it we don't
have it in stock.

Have to Be Aroused.

Most men do not know what is in
them till they receive the summons
from their fellows; their hearts die
within them, sleep settles upon them
the lethargy of the worlds miasmata;
there is nothing for which they are so
thankful as for that cry, awake, thou
that sleepest !'-Ruskin.

Of all the foolish and unreasonable
arguments advanced in favor OF the
League of Nations none is SO utterly
absurd as to say--as those favoring the
LeaCu do-that there nothing COM
pulsory about the league; it can only
advise.
ANY person with particle OF sound
reasoning ability knows that when a
tribunal is created to advise, those
creating that tribunal must of necessity
comply with the advise given or that
person or nation will surely stand dis
praced before the world.
The United States has never yet re-
fused to discharge Its duty to the
world, and, pray God, we trust 1t
never will; but let's be careful that
we do not involve our country IN any
league or agreement that will force
US to either surrender our sovereignty
or suffer disgrace to avoid If.
The only safe way is to throw the
League covenar cut of the window
and ratify the treaty with Germany
and let it go at that.

4 movement is on foot to boost Gov.
Frank o. Lowden, of Illinois for the
nomination far president by the repub
Iican party. In the face of the splendid
record ne has made as governor of
Illinois in actually accomplishing
things, he certainly has in him the
kind of timber needed in the presi-
Dental chair.
He will doubtless be backed by a
solid delega tion from the Sucker state
ad that will count pretty big. The
public will. hear more of him later.
