PRONOUNCED VIEWS OB FMP. BO. 0AHNON Oil LONG SCHOOL HOURS,
Mrs. Gilbert Speaks Oo "Aptitude Vs. 'Knowledge"—Fourth Day of Institute More Interesting Than Usual.
The, fourth day of the c&ntjr: teachers' institute opened with a ang&ng ot hymns and offering of prayer hjf Hanley of the First Baptist ohurcfi. Ifleveml new faces, were seen in the mi^Bt^of the regular attendants. 1 .. fL-t-.
The meeting was addressed first tiy Prof. Bohannon on the subject of "Adolescence." The speaker described the period of adolescence as that of confirmation and conversion, the lime when new eyes are given, so to speak, to the scholar, and new ideas steal upon the intellect. In the boys life tljis period stretches from 1-1 to 25 *years and the .girl's from 12 to 21. This is indeed the crucial time in the life of a person and the period of character-molding. Doubt comes to the inquiring mind, and the young person must be carefully guided through this period of his life. The. ^|rfs 3 was, in part as follows: "In taking the standpoint of the child and urging the necessity of seeing the child's standpoint I don't mean that we are to turn everything over to the child^and follow him about as a.dQg does his nutter I believe in the «*«$£,•• The boy sought to be required to dqt inany things on the very minute and the very second. But 3^Jdo not believe in trying to drag in a foreign interest in to things '"There are a great many things peculiar to this period. The matter of confirmation and conversion usually fails within the period of adolescence. This is a period of great impulse, great forward motion, and the individual takes a new start in life. This period is as important as the period of childhood itself. In this period new traits of character appear. The selfishness of childhood sometimes changes to altruism in the period of adolescence. It is the choice period for starting out on new lines of growth. St "Physical changes of this period are well known. The tooy's vaioe Changes. The volume of the heart and brain increases an dthe circulation quicken^. "All individuals have such experiences and its perfectly natural. 'Children should be given just a little bit of range at this time with regard to matters of religion and they should not be considered as lost. "At this period we wapt to co-ordinate this activity with good efforts in order that the least harm shall be done. An idle brain is the devil'6 workshop." jr
Knowledge and Tendency of Aptitude. The -next speech was by Mrs. A. Kate Gilbert on "Aptitude Knowledge." Mrs. Gilbert believes in a teacher's possessing a temper, but having the power of controlling her tongue She thinks there are two essentials for the educator. They are fir3t, knowledge, and second an aptitude for leading others. "Aptitude and knowledge are the qualities that characterize the teacher as a teacher. The teacher is born, not made. Professional preparation develops the born teacher. Professional prepartion can not make, a teacher out of one who has no aptitude in this direction. To teach is not to stand and tell what you know, tout to lead others to see. To teach is to illustrate. "To teach is to stimu^fe^ to Investigation. To teach is to .:bS&«. &elf-control toward some good purpose. There is no maximum limit as to the knowledge necessary to the ideal teacher. The minimum limit bothers many applicants. The growing teacher is in demand. Dead teachers are being buried every day. 'Where are you now?' "Many persons who call children into a schoolroom who would better be holding a plow or selling goods behind the counter the counter or toe a (blacksmith or a member of other sphool. 'Some are born for great things and some are born for small, but of some it is not recorded* why they were born at all.' (Laughter.) "The teacher should be a learner agAin with the pupils, but he should lead the way. The teacher of the lowest primary grade does not need to fear,'mental stagnation. The one who is bound down and feels her work is mechanical drudgery is out of place."
TALK ON "SCHOOL HYGIENE." The following is an abstract of the address of Professor Bohannon, characteristic of the theoretical tendencies of the man and touching upon things which Are as true as they are unobserved: "School hygiene pertains mainly to the nervous system. Every niental process has its corresponding physical process. It's just like the old fashioned teeter board, if you push down here it goes down there. "We know that during the waking hours the temperature may be two degrees higher than during sleep. The volume erf blood supply is greater. Thse measurements have been made exact. Slee, therefore, is brain rest. There is an instrument that can be connected with the circulation of the eye which is the same as the torain circulation, and if the person is frightened the instrument shows a sudden rise. The circulation becomes most sluggish at about 3 or 4 o'clock in the night. We can tell just about what the mental capabilities are. They vary with the physical conditions. "Fatigue is sure to come. We ought to know the conditions which produce it and what are the kinds of rest. We can modify fatigue by drugs, but the only thing that will remove it is good, wholesome sleep. "I don't believe it is advisable in manycases to insist or suggest that children do any home studying. If a school room is properly arranged as to seating and ventilation the child can do all he ought to during school hours. He ought to have the rest of the day to grow. Have quick work and short periods. "About three-quarters of an hour is long enough for any child to. study without an intermission. I believe six hours is entirely too much time for either child or teacher in school. I believe that two hours is enough time for any child 6 or 8 years old. A PHASE OF LANGUAGE EVOLUTION.
In the speech givenity Professor Wiley on language evolution the learned man betrayed his close and sysfemsitic study on the matter. "Some people declare thaflanguage was a direct gift from God to man, and others declare that it was an.^vo^ution. We will not take up that question:* However, we know that now that language 4s constantly undergoing an evolution. I&Wder that there may be a measure of good usage we must have a standard or criticlsn^for language.
Literature is in a very large sense an echo of our sensations, o^f feelings, our thoughts, our experiences. In toooks we find what has happened to men in their contact with men and yrith things. "The large extent which i&e language has moved forward is a wonder to us. When we take Johnson's dictionary we see that it was about the size of Webster's Academic dictionary." •s^V'v'.v
The professor next spoke of the tattle of Waterloo and how the loss of 40.000 men gave us the common word. This word and many others like it contain and:convey the idea of human achievement and suffering.
After Professor Wiley had finished the institute was addressed by Professor Bohanno6 again on the subject.of sleep *nd its
absolute necessity. He gave examples at the manner in which experiments had been carried on with animals in regard to the loss of sleep. Their power of remaining without sleep, is much greater than man. The professor also gave some valuable pointers to the teachers 'on hygienic rules for the school room. DURING THE AFTERNOON SESSION.
The afternoon yesterday was taken up by recitations and entertaining features of various sorts. •M-. (Miss Louise Smith favored the asseinbly with a vocal solo which was very highly enjoyed. {Master Harry Smith again delighted the audience with one of his inimitable Citations accompanied by songs.

PERTAINING TO FEES.
8 tJ BP RISE SPRUNG ON PUBLIC BY A MEETING OF BAB ASSOCIATION.
Their Construction of the Acts of 1895 Hade Into a Schedule, Which They Would Like to Have Adopted.
At a called meeting of the Vigo Bar association -yesterday morning, a committee of three, composed of Attorneys William Mack, R. B. Stlmsoti and F. A. McNutt, presented a resolution for the consideration of che body, which had taken thein several months to prepare. It was In the form of a schedule of the fees for the services of the county clerk and the sheriff.
In 1895 it will be remembered the legislature enacted a statute whereby the fees of these two officials were cut down consideratoly, and were made returnable to the state, the salaries being fixed toy statute. In accordance with their construction of this law, the committee prepared the schedule of fees collectable by the clerk and sheriff.
For some time .(including terms of other officials), the members of the association assert, there has been much dissatisfaction felt and expressed at the fees charged in these two departments of the county. The complaints, it is said, have been (made principally against unauthorized fees, and the collection of these lias been participated in by several officers of the two courts of the county. The lawyers thought it would toe best to have a settled schedule of the fees adopted by the courts, which the officers are authorized to collect, so that there would be no more complaint, as against the two officers.
The report of tihe committee, which is very exhausive, and covers many type written pages, details the fees from the one for filing a. voucher to the emuneration for appraising property. In the reiport the committee acknowledges that it had considerable trouble in agreeing upon the real meaning of several passages in the act, and in one or more cases they •were left in doubt.
The report starts out as follows: "The bar says that, while it is very clear that the statute disallows all constructive fees, yet, in some cases, it requires a careful ronstruction of several sections of the statute, to determine what is the fee authorized. It is only fair, also, to the officers upon whom has been cast the duty of constructing the law and taxing said fees to say thas in some cases the committee have had doutot, and even differences of opinion, as to the fees intended to be authorized by the law." "The committee would, therefore, suggest, in presenting the schedule of fees prepared by them, that the courts fix a day for a hearing in the matter of the adoption of said schedule, and give notice thereof to the clerk and sheriff of said courts, to the tooard of county commissioners of said county, and to all whom it may concern, and that an opportunity be given to them to file exceptions to said schedule, or otherwise, and the courts in making the schedule correct, if not now corrert, before it is adopted."
The committee submits this report to the court, with the plea that it be. adopted. The dae set for action on the matter is September 16, and the time intervening will be allowed the clerk and sheriff to file exceptions to any part of the schedule, and for-any preparatory action desired by-, the board of commissioners.
After the submitting or the report the committee moved that the schedule should be made a matter of record in the order books of each court, and that printed copies toe given to the officers of the court and posted: in the offices of the sheriff and clerk.
It Is the opinion of the two county officers concerned that this schedule, if ruled upon, will not ctit down the fees. They are also of the opinion that the lawyers have no right to fix the fees. County Clerk Watson stated that he believed the fees would be larger than before, as several fees were fixed for matters which occasioned no expense before.
NO MORE BIKE RACES
ON THE WORLD FAMOUS TRACK IN THE FAIR GROUNDS FOR AWHILE.
It is Blacklisted by the League ori Account of the Woman's Race Run on Labor Day.
Herbert Foltz, a member of the national racing board, sent from Indianapolis yesterday a notification to the local members of the L. A. W. that no more races could be run on the Terre Haute track.
This movement of the board is the result of the running race -between women at the fair grounds last Monday. This is one of the things which lays a track to being blacklisted toy the league, since it is claimed to toe detrimental to clean sport. There are several other things under the ban, which may bring iatoout the same Jesuit, among them racing on Sunday, and allowing gambling to be carried on about the txavk.
There was quite a controversy over tie matter while the Labor Day committee was preparing its programme. The local officials of the league protested agalaat the "Ladies' race," asserting the danger of what did result. But the members of the committee insisted it was nobody's business but their own as to the manner -n which they should carry out the programme for he holiday. The race they woull have and the race they did have. It was as expected. No more contests for at least several months can toe carried on at the tr.vjk under tne sanction of the league.
But this is not all. All riders also *ho raced on that day on the trick have been suspended for ninety days. The men affected are:
George Evans, Bert Meailar, Jaines Sullivan, Edward Daily, Charles Fehl and Victor Hoare, Harry Gibson, A. Adams, Harry Ray and William Surber.
This does not probiMt the tr lining of r.ny rider by spinning around the track, but ro race will be allowed to run.
The letter from Mr. i«"ol^ ali'o contained the formal notice to Ar.-h Ferguson and Ed Sandison of their suspensim from the league until September 1st next year. This will keep them out of races next season.
