Outlines of Work for Joint Countj In
stitute, to be Held at Snowflake.
These "outlines"' are prepared for
the benefit of teachers, in order that
all may have opportunity to prepare

each teacher will preserve these out
lines. Cut them out and use them
in small "scrap-book" or in whatever
form will be most convenient.
There will be twelve or more ad
ditional outlines which will appear
soon.
No assignments of work have yet
been made, but within a few days
arrangements will be made with
teachers to lead and follow in dis
cussion of the various subjects.
The Hon. S. M. Craig, of St. Johns,
will have charge of assignment and
arrangement of work for the Apache
county teachers, and will "use every
endeavor to make our meeting a suc
cess. "
We hope to be able, within the
next fifteen days, to state definitely
all arrangements for Institute work.
A cordial invitation will be accord
ed all persons interested in educa
tion, to attend our meeting. It is
