Tho first paper, on "Slato Normal

tcnelurs in Now York clly.
The pnnir was quite long, nnd gavo 11
complete 1 lilstorj'of the work of this collcgo
and its alms. It was quite in detail and
closely llstinctl to, because tho subject of
normal schools Is 0110 that school people
take a great deal of Interest in. Tbo paper

bo was not present.
The second paper wns on "City Training
and Praetlco Schools." It wns read by
W. S. Jackman, principal of tbo High
School In Pittsburg, Pa.
Ho deprecated tho "fad," as ho charac
terized It, for manual training, 11 result ot
tho general utlllnrlau tendencies ot tho
day. Practical education, us It Is called,
ho thought, wns too much' sought after.
Tho Idin, though good In llself, be thought
Is being carried to nu extreme.
Aftir the paper wns finished a recess was
taken till 1:30 this nftenioon, when tlio dis
cussion of Mr, Jnekmau's paper wns begun

Superintendent Powell combaltcd the
Idea thnt tbo teaching of manual training
wns calculated to mako learners looso sight
of more Important .things. Tho uormiil
student lianis by cartful study of relations,
values and purposes by tho classification
nml arrangement of knowledge tho piaco
uud purpose of objoctlvo work and decide-
that object training Is not a branch of cdu
cntlou by Itself, lo ho taken up ns a sepa
rate study, but must form u part of the,
means by which every branch of inform t
tlon (s taught tho child during tho formi
tlvo vcarsot his life. v
"No teacher who has studied methods
nlono can do this ivoik, however proficient
boniajbe; no teacher who has academic
Information nlniiu can tlo this work, how
ever broad nud diversified thnt Information
iiiiiv be.
''I cmphnlo this part of the work of
normal Induing," ho said, "because, after
vurlid und iloso obscrvutlou, I am per
suaded that poor work In tho schools Is duo
mainly to thu absence of nn Intelligent
knowledge of Its purpose nnd value, nud I
om further pi rsuudecl that un enthusiastic
chasing up nnd down tho Inud for Institute
processes for summer school methods will
not result lu better work, It thoy nro to be -prni
tlccd by timbers who know not their
application and nro wholly unable to test
their results."
T ho object of Die uornral school for the
preparation of leathers, ho said, was to
leach Hum why ho docs this work. Tho
teacher should bo so trained ns to form a
Just estimate of his own work, Tho pupil
tiachirmust learn to teach by teaching;
few can learn well by observing thu teach
ing of others. As well attempt to teach a.
person to slug, or to play an Instrument, or
to preach sermon, or to plead a ense1 nt
law bj observation.
This teaching should bo done under cir
cumstances nud conditions ns nearly llko
those with which bo will bo confronted lu
ids rtgulnr work of teaching after leaving
the normal school us it is possible to mako
them.
Ho should bear lectures by specialist
toward tbo close of bis normal school jc.ir
the artist, tho scientist, tho successful
business man, tho historian, the trtveler,
the phvslclan, tho lavvjer, tho school supcr
lutindent, tlipcollego specialist. I don't
Include in this list tho Institute lecturo
fiend.
"1 would havo tho pupil teacher visit
