Song-"My Bonnie"
To the regret of the Institute, Prof

see State Noraml, and Praf. C. w
Dixon were providentially hindered
from taking up their discussions dur.
ing the afternoon session.

morous way, spoke to the teachers
for short while.
Prof. M. L. Clemens, Of Tusculum
College, was next introduced. Prof

Before taking up the regular pro-
gram for the day, Judge Stricklin

Judge Stricklin is man of wide ex-
perience as teacher, and left with
the teachers many good thoughts;
especially did he emphasize the use
of the dictionary on the part of the

Judge Stricklin is forceful speaker
and in closing his discourse babe the
teachers God-speed in their work.
"The Primary Teacher, Her Mis-
sion, Her Reward" was the subject
discussed by Prof Burkhart. Prof,
Burkhart advocated that the primary
teacher, as well as the teacher of the
higher grades, should have proper
for her work, because
more than fifty percent of the boys
and girls never pursue their educa-
ton beyond the fifth grade. 1t is
true that the work of the primary
teacher is the greatest work on earth
and her mission does not come second
to that of the ministry.
After the singing of round, Miss
Martha Myers was introduced. Her
subject was, "The Teacher AS the So
cial Leader Among the Boys and

Gated. She offered helpful sugges-
lions as to how she may go about
his work.
