TEACHER’S COLUMN.
DEVOTED TO THE INTER
EST OF EDUCATION
Communications for this Column
Should be Addressed to
J. F’. Dendy, Homer.
After consulting with onr kind,
genial, liberal amt indulgent editor,
Mr. Cox, we have decided not to
print the minutes of the Institute,
provided some of the teachers do not
‘•kick,” as it will require about three
and a half coin in us of the paper to
print them, but if the teachers insist
I can tender the Teacher’s Column
for three issues, but at present we
arc crowded somewliat, but our
motto is anything for the benefit of
Ranks county.
A word about the Teacher’s pic
nic which we are anticipating with
much pleassure on the lltli inst..
Would it not bo well to have a few
speeches in the court house or acad
emy in the forenoon and then retire
to a selected shady site on the banks
of that “silvery stream,” Hudson?
Where with the aid of a few fellow
teachers we can make it a place .
comfort and resort etc. Let. us hear
from you fellow teachers at once for
the “time is not long as it has been.”
TEACIIKII’S ANNUAL INSTITUTE..
It is not necessary to stale that
the Teachci’s Institute, which con
vened at this place week before last
was a success but it is necessary to
add that the same was a grand suc
cess.
It is evident that it is almost im
possible to estimate the Iruo value
t>f such au institution and those ben
efactors, who established or planned
such an institution for the professional
teacher, deserve much credit and
piaise.
As for results, who can doubt but
that we will at an early date realize
the fact that we have been made
stronger, more energetic, more en
thusiastic in our profession, arid more
contented with our vocation. The
future only can reveal the true re
stilts of tlia inspiration received
during the week allotted us.
Again we have been made realize
the solemn fact that the knowledge
of a science is not sufficient; wj
must possess the power and skill to
unfold or transfer the same to our
pupils.

of man.”
Again wo have been made to lot’e
the profession of teaching, but must
admit we were not in position lieie
tofore appreciate such a position, ' at
now the way has been made clear.
Of course we have always regarded
the profession as one of high calling, 1
and it is quite true if we will only J
put ourselves upon that elevate .

that r e.illy love the profession,

with whom we come in contact.

value of the work doue by our ~ble:

fact that it was his so e object \o'

his patience, tenderness, kindness;
and interest manifested in us during
the few days be spent with us. Our
associations were pleasant and the'
gentle hints given us regarding our
profession are treasured up for
future reference and net as a remi
niscence peculiar only to our true,,
faithful rtiul untiring expert. May (
success attend him wherever he Ynny
cast his lot.
Our esteemed School Commissioner
deserves much credit for favors
shown tis, and our past experience
with him and association substantiate
the fact “as is the .size of the man, so
is his heart.”
Long may we retain the valuable
information received during the
Institute of 1896.

In Memory of “Little Hill
Brown.”
When the incxerable mandate of
Death passes unbidden through the
portals of the home, and removes
the idol of our affection, mid ruth
lessly destroys our fondest hopes,
we are called upon to feel and to
suffer for ourselves tlvt which no
language can portray.
Human philosophy utterly tails to
account for the great, mystery of our
bereavements in this life. Over
whelmed by their rude shock we turn
aside to suffer alone, except for the
presence of God's sustaining hand.
Then it is that the strength uni
purity of that love and affection
which has so interwoven itself into
our lives as to become a part of oui
dailev existence, asserts itself, and
with the fact we sigh fot'tttthe 'touch
of a vanished hand, the AJuud of a
voice forever still d.”
Such an affliction as this came upon
the parents of Billy Brown—“little
Bill” as wo fondly railed him when
on the morning of may 18th last
the death angel came and cm! • i him
away from earthly existent; to take
his place as one of Heaven's brightest
jewels. Ho who sml “suffer little
children to come unto me and forbid
them not for of such is the Kingdom
of Heaven” called him up higher and
gave him a home in tile mansions of
the redeemed in Heaven.
His earthly life was one of short
duration, being oitlv two years 2
months and 4 days old at the time
of his death; but lie possessed a
peculiar sweetness of disposition,
dignity aud intellectual culture far
beyond his years, which made lor
hint a largo circle of friends who felt
a tender regard for him, atul interest
in his welfare. No child, perhaps,
so young m years, ever had more
‘admirers during his life, or more true
mourners at his death.
During his last illness i ssemen
to retain ail those beautiful ;raffs of j
mind and b ar’ which emlca./d him i
so no h -very one in spue ot the I
.iK'fi/i;.;/.- through which he passed.!
As his body grew weaker day by day I
the spiritual and lovii g qualities of j
bis nature seemed to increase until!
atlas strong arm of th> great
king of te m's lay bold of b s little ;
flamy and ho at'last yieHed up his !
precious lit ■ and passed away with,
a smile upon his features, to ente,-
into life eternal. But in the midst
of ail our grief aud sorrow let us
remember that.—
** Ht’yoml this vale of te;.- ,
There is a life atxjvc,
rnmoasnret- Jiy the ot fears.
Anti all h jt life is love.”
The gre” --will soon give up its dead
aud all the life beyond will know no
death or suffering. One fond em
brace bevoud the swelling flood, and
there will be no ivnne soffotang or .
separation. There the tree of life
blooms eternally, and the King in
His beauty reigns forever more.
These precious little ones for
whom He showed so much love while
upon earth He has called to Himself
in their innocence and purity to
adorn and beautify the mansion on j
high.
Then fond parents grieve not as
one without hope, because as sure as
Christ’s word is true we shall s< e
little Billy again not in this hail
| tenure of mortal existence,
but in the habiliments of a glorious
immortality, and in the presence of
the angels and redeemed hosts of
Heaven. L

Weldon During the War.
When I was young I lived so gay
My troubles they all did pass aw.-u ,
And now no pleasure I can find
To relieve my troubled mind.
In sixty one the war begun,
In sixty two it was not through,
And brothers four 1 had to go
And then mv heart was troubled sure.
In sixty three I went to see,
My btotherS all around me be;
Now they are gone I know not where
In Hcav’n 1 hope shine bright andclear
In sixty lour one brother died
1 stood around hint, grieved and cried
The doctor would not do to trust,
lie sank into his mother dust.
In sixty five another come
Poor aud weak and soldier worn,
He suffered long, at last ho ditd
And now he lie* by brother’s side.
I often to their graves did go.
Put flowers there and ced.u to,
Now they arc growing all around
And they are mouldering in the ground
Several years I spent in grief
And nothing could give me relief;
But nty brothers, two came home,
Then my pleasures did re 1 urn.
’fwas several years 1 spent in glee,
1 thought my heart from trouble free,
Rut at last it did return
My sister died s > fair and young.
My sister all the one with mo
Was taken sick; at last she died,
And now slit lies at brother’s feel
lu Heaven I hope they did meet.
Another year 1 spent in grief
And nothing could give me relief;
I thought with all that I could do
That 1 should die surely too.
For six iong months after sister died
Mother she was taken sick.
For six long months sue suffered pain
1 hope she will sutvive again.
For four months more my mother lay
And suffered from day to day;
’Till God seen fit to call her bonne,
And now 1 for my mother mourn.
1 have nothing else but trouble here;
1 know that God will bless,
I’ll strive to get to you blessed plane
To meet departed ones again.
Now then reader you can s/e

Two sisters married also be,
And 1 am left alone you see
