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 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 . plain r * becoming to all teach ; that r e.illy love the profession, are sure to be permuted t< titt* insults .which will bo . , \ satisfactorily to ourselves and those with whom we come in contact.

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.
