To Teachers o! Morgan County.
Your grade in ability will be based
largely on the methods used, the ac
curcy with which you follow the
course oi study, and your Reading
circle- work.
Your grade on management will
depend largely on the decipling main
tained in your school rooms, and in
terest shown in Tetcher's Meetings.
No 3rd year work to be given this
year, as all 3rd year pupils work with
4th year class. No 5th year work to
be given this year, as all 5th year pu
pils work with 6th year class. No
7th year work to be given, as all 7th
year pupils work with 8th year class.
Teach largely by outline. The
proper use of the typical method in
cludes the outline method typical in
this sense does not mean paragraph.
A text in Language, Nature Study,
Spelling in the lower grades, Oral
Geography, 1st and 2nd year num
ber's etc., is utterly impossible, unless
you are larger than any text on these
subjects COULD BE you will make a
failure of teaching them. Get larger,
or, in other words, be bigger than
your subject.
Study the course of study and text
books carefully, that you may know
how long each lesson must be in order
to cover the work in each month.
If you have more classess than the
State suggests the fault is yours
improve your methods.
The State Course of study has
made good, it is being used, it is us
able. Don't say, "I do the best I
can ; I am trying to use it," etc.,
such expressions admit failure.
Make your school interesting to
yourself and pupils.

1371 and if there was ever a word
said against him. we never heard it.
He was born in Virginia in 1843, was
married in 1805, his wife having died
about three years ago. Ten children
were born to this family, eight of
whom are yet living. Mr. Driver has
been a member oi the Mennonite
church" tor about fortv years, being a
deacon in that church most of that
time. He will be greatly missed in
the community where he lived, for he
could always be depended on to tlo
the right thing at the right time.
Perfectly honest and straight forward
in all his dealings, he was a good
friend to both poor and rich alike and
it will be a long time before we have

Driver. The best that can be said of
any man, is 4,he was a good man."
