Diftcusaed.

The college- section of the Teachers' Asaociation met again at.10 o’clock to-day, in parlor A, Denison Hotel. The first paper of the day was by President L. J. Aldrich, of Union Christian College, Merom. Ind.. on “Home Essential* in College Administration.’’ Of the college pres-

ident be said:

"He must employ none but the worthl- | Increasing. There arc.

eat motives. He must be Instant In sea-H son and out of season. He must exalt his college; must convince patrons of her virtuea and possibilities. H© must, in short, prove, without a shadow of doubt, that a well-managed Christian college oasiiy becomes the most powerful agency for good in the world, and hence the most desirable Institution in which to invest

benevolent funds

"The modern word ‘hustler* Is none too expressive when used to describe the modern college president who succeeds as a financier. To sum up the points especially emphasised, we are to promote such a healthful spirit of co-operation that all interests shall flow together, actuated by the sweet spirit of loyalty and love; that good morals, good habits and good scholarship shall be promoted by the exercise of large freedom under wholesome rule*, and, finally, that enlarged equipments,

ucation law. He said If manual training is the best in the city, agricultural training, or the elements of it through nature study, are the greatest for rural schools. He predicted that the future school would be for three-fold training—mental, manual

and physicaJ.

Discussing this paper, President Fisher, of Hanover, said that in the administration of a college the man or the men. means and methods must be taken into account. The management must have perfect Integrity and good sense must be applied. There must be decision and tact. Methods should be along some definite plan with flexibility according to clrcum-

stances.

President Stott, of Franklin College, said: "The college president of the future is to be a very different man from the college president ef the past. Heretofore the ability to teach has been the uppermost thing. That is changing in our day.

The time will come, possibly, when the president will be thought of more as a manager than anything else. The layman will make as good a college president and the man who can manage a factory will, a great many hoards may think, manage a college equally well. The teaching will be done by the professors and the president may be more of a society man who is around among folks. In this transition state we are having financial agents and chancellors. Finally, the financial man and the chancellor will be the president.” Prescient Bwatn. of the Indiana

In tfie weaker institutions where we have to fight for our student body we bear with the voung man a long time before we tell him we do not want him any

longer.

“Our work Is largely along the line of chnraeter building. If the college president is not to do this, who will do It? So Jong as the smaller colleges continue to •xist. there Is a work for the president to do with young men. It seems to me that the commercial spirit is the greatest evil that has crept into our colleges.” Future Meetings. A resolution was adopted that the ne*t meeting of the college association should be left to thq executive committee and that the cotrmltte* should fix a date that would enable college presidents and professor* to come together before the opening of the meetings of the State Teachers’ Association, President Stone, of Purdue, said: “I > Would like to suggest an innovation. If 1 college presidents could come together j ©nee a year at a good dinner and when their stomach* are well filled could proceed to discuss some of their troubles and difficulties, there would be no absentees and the meeting would be a profitable one. It Should be held at some time when it would! not be overshadowed by Christmas shopping, theatrical entertain went*, the teachers’ meeting and the sectionul meetinm."

he said. 115 schools in the State with fewer than five pupils in attendance. and 1.263 schools with lesq than fifteen pupils. There are 4,200 schools In which the attendance is too small for vigorous and profitable work. No school can claim good conditions for work If it contains less than twenty-five pupils. The problem of the small school, he said, becomes more difficult each year, and now requires a solution. He thought the small schools should (be consolidated into fewer large ones, where there could

terms

of school and teachers could be better paid. Under such a plan the rural teacher might be adequately compensated and good teachers would be attracted. The fii st question, he said, toward the upbuilding of the lural school must direct Itself to the questions of the tenure and compensation of rural teachers. C. A. Van Mutre, superintendent of Delaware count/, spoke on "Supervision." He said .the county superintendent has general supervb-lin over all schools, but his direct au'.honty i* limited and the city schools mav be xemoved from his supervision entirely. The speaker said he would recommend a reversal of the supervisory powers as they now exist and let all supervisors arise from one head—the State Bupertntendency. To execute the plan properly would necessitate additional appropriations and more assistants. Counties, he said, should be similarly organised. The position of supervisor should be made the best paying one in county schools, and a man worthy of the salary should be selected to fill It. "The Training of Teachers” was the subject of D. M. Geeting, superintendent of the Greensburg schools. He said it is becoming more and more apparent to those who employ teachers that a person who teaches well needs some training. The first essential, he said, is natural ability. The trained teacher is the systematic one, who needs skill and tact. Scholarship is just as essential. "It may be sald< of him who uses knowledge of subjects wisely,” Mr. Geeting said, "that he becomes in the end a trained teacher. But the demands of the times may be accurately determined by watching the courses of study of our normal schools and colleges, as they prepare to meet the demands of their patrons. In recent years establishment and maintenance of departments of pedagogy with special Inducements to teachers, show the trend of this

matter."

Value of Self-Activity.

The morning session closed with an address by Mrs. O. P. Kinsey, of Valparaiso Normal College, who had for a subject "Education Through Self-Activity.” Mrs.

Kinsey is one of the oldest members of the teachers’ association, and for many years has been connected with Indiana schools and colleges. D. M. Geeting. fo r m e r State Superintendent, was one of her pupils more than thirty years ago. She spoke of the importance of students doing for themselves. Instead of depending altogether on the teachers, aqd said the pupils who helped themselves made more progress than do those who require constant guidance from their In-

structors.

The session this afternoon opened with a solo by Miss Eflfte C. Hessln. Mrs. C. W. Boucher, principal of the department Of literature and elocution, of the Marion Normal College, gave a selection. She is regarded as an artist in her profession, her readings being full of natural expression. She and her pupils have given numerous public entertainments at Marlon. One of the papers on the program was “Some Foundation Stones of Educa.tlon,” by Prof. R. P. Halleck, of the male high school, of Louisville. Miss Anna

President

The hall of the House of Representatives was filled last njght when the Indiana State Teachers’ Association held !ts opening session. There were musical numbers by Miss Effle C. Hessen, of Goshen, and Prof. Fred Noble. H. B. Brown, of Valparaiso, president of the organisation, made his Inaugural address. He advocated manual training schools. He spoke of the trend of population from country di~ tricts and villages to the cities, and said people prefer to endure the poverty of a city with Its broader advantages than to live in plenty in the country. Under the present conditions, he said, the complex life of a city demands the highest grade of intelligence. He also said that the purpose of the parent and college was thwarted by pupils leaving school with the Impression that they could at onus step into a competency, after being educated without expense to themselves and without the hard work which marked the schooling of their fathers. He urged that manual training and agricultural departments be established in all the public schools. • ; ■/' ... In retfrfng from the presidency, tt L Hamilton, of Huntington, paid tribute to Will H.

Other teachers of Fountain county had previously arrived, making an attendance of about 136 out of 166 teachers in the

county.

One reason for the good attendance from the county Is that the county superintendent, Grant Gossett, promised to pay all teachers thetr regular per diem salaries while they are at the convention. The delegation is in charge of 8. J. Purnell, trustee of Van Buren township, of Fountain county. Headquarters are at room 114 at the Hotel English. Section* Elect Officers.

BIRDS SHOWN TO INDIANA ACADEMY OF SCIENCE.

HOTEL MEN’S MEETING.

THE WORK OF HIS BOYHOOD

False Ideas About Forest Preservation Discussed by Prof. M. B. Thomas, President of the Academy.

The Indiana Academy of Science held its opening session in the agricultural room this morning, having postponed It from yesterday afternoon. One of the features that was apparently appreciated by the members In attendance was the .presence Of some birds that had been shot and stuffed by President Roosevelt during his happy childhood hours. They were brought by C. H. Eigenmann, from the State University, at Bloomington, and were introduced to the audience during the reading of his paper, “Zoological Miscellany.” The birds, six In number, had apparently, from their jaded appearance, been dallying with a hard fate, and Mr. Eigenmann explained that they had seen some pretty severe usage prior to the election of Mr. Roosevelt as President, but since that time, he hastened to add, they have received great consideration, on account of the fact that they were stuffed by an overgrown cub of a boy about thirteen years of age, who afterward became head of the nation. Mr. Eigenmann read also an interesting paper on "The Eyes of the Rhineura Floridana, the Blind Amphisbienian from Florida.” He was followed by W. H. Freeman, on the “Co-Relation of Forestry to the Sciences"; W. J. Moenkhaus, on "Experiments in the Hybridization of Fishes”; Severance Burrage on "Microscopic Organisms Found in the Lafayette (Ind.) Reservoir." Prof. M. B. Thomas, the retiring president, then made an address on "Forestry in Indiana.” As to damage that is being done by the destruction of forests, he said that the later effects would be more noticeable than the present. He explained the various ways in which the cutting down of the trees injured the residents of the State, and said that the only wayin which the Federal Government might be successful in Its present efforts to find some solution of the problem would He in the co-operation of the various States. He said Indiana was sadly deficient in this respect. There are now only 1.227,000 acres of timber In the State, he said, making only one-twentieth of the total acreage, and the greater part of this is In the southern part of the State. In speaking of the necessity of educating the public in regard to the replanting of trees, he said that many had a false idea of the intention of those who advocated such work and that this caused some opposition that would not otherwise be felt. One thing that should be impressed upon the public, he said, was that trees would not be planted on land that is suitable for agricultural purposes and that forestry did not mean hording timber,. but so protecting it that more timber might be cut than is possible under existing circumstances. He also advocated the establishment of forestry reserves in various parts of the State, and the observance of arbor day in such manner as would tend to the proper appreciation of forests.

Smith was one of a number who agreed to take lots in an addition to Huntington at $200 each The lot he drew was not worth more than *60. but he gave hi® note* for the agreed price on assurances that improvements would be made that would greatly Increase its value. The trial court held that be must pay the notes and he appealed.

Indiana Landlords Having a Good Time—Banquet To-Night. The members of the Indiana Association of Hotel Keeper® held their annual ’■eunion in this city to-day. The attendance was not so large as usual, but the landlords who were present seemed to be enjoying themselves. A business meeting was held this afternoon at the Grand Hotel. Henry W. Lawrence, of Indianapolis, presided. Since the last meeting Charles Bauer, of South Bend, president of the association; L. H. Firey, formerly of this city, vice-president, and Charles Rouzer, for many years superintendent of the Columbia Club, member of the executive committee, have moved from the State. New officers were elected late this afternoon. The banquet to-night at the Denison will be the feature of the meeting. Nicholas Filbeck, the Terre Haute political boss and. hotel man, will preside.
