WORTH IF YOU TO Hats and Dry Goods, THE TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION, A Good Meeting Held at Rowland Saturday -Profitable Talkai Made and a Good Attendance of Teachers. Reported For The Bobesonlan. The Robeson County Teachers j Association was called to order at Rowland Saturday by Supt. J. R. Pople. Prayer was offered by Prof. J. C. Harmon, after which Supt. Poole outlined the work be fore the association and compli mented the teachers for their faithful work. In an address of welcome Prof. Harmon proved to be some what of an orator, as well as a young man of fine appearance on the stage. He impressed upon the teachers the responsibilities of school work and assured the teachers that the good people of Rowland were not only pleased but felt honored by having the teachers of Robeson as their guests. Prof. W. R. Edmonds spoke on "System in School Work". The speaker is rather slender and lean but erect ; nd handsome and was easy on the floor; he was de liberate but positive and held the attention of the audience from the time he entered upon.- tbe stage. He emphasized the fact that order was the background of all success; that there should be systematic work on the part of the teachers and pupils. He was inclined to think the switch was an excellent means as a last resort of x establishing 'system and discipline in the school. Every teacher should rule his or, her school regardless of interfer ence and criticism ot patrons. One of the most forcible, points made by the speaker was that teachers were under obligations to go amongst the poor and un fortunate and build up their schools from such classes of peo pie. That teachers should be alive and instil life into the whole community. "Method in Teaching School" wasdiscussed by Col. W.M.Jones. Mr. Jones is superintendent of the North Carolina Military School at Red Springs. The speaker is rather short and well proportioned with black hair and black moustache. He comes on the stage with the quick alert movement characteristic of a man trained in military tactics. His appearance was good and his po sition on the floor easy. His manner of speech was quick and enthusiastic but npt stormy. He handled his subject carefully and gave the teachers. the benefits of his experience ' in teaching his tory,. The following are some of the forcible facts which the speaker developed: 1. That teacners should not confine their work in history to tbe text book on class; 2- That questions should not be asked so as to bring out monosyllabic answers but so as to enable the pupils to discuss the topics; 3. That history should be studied by association of men with events, events with events, etc; 4. That we . should all make a broader and deeper study of history. A vocal solo was rendered by Miss Agnes Evans, music teacher at Alfordsville. She is a pretty little girl and sang in a soft, mel low tone and delighted her au dience. Prof. L- L- Hargrove spoke on "Manual Training". The speaker is. little . and snort below the average sized man. His face clean striven -is small, 4 with large nose and intellectual fore head.; He convinced the audience tnathe wis a man of deep thought, for tie', produced one of the taost f thoughtful papers we have ever t heard on manual training. There were forty or teachers in attendance. more HolderflcId-McLeod. Cnrrespoudenoe of The Kobenooln.
