It is an old saying that ‘‘free shows draw,” and it is atrue saying. On Thursday evening the Theater was ayain uncomfortably crowded by the multitude of people who went there to hear State Superintendent Hoitt’s lecture on “What To Do and How To Do It,” and the literary and musical exercises. : Mrs. M. Locklin, who is a piano player of great skill, rendered a solo with the best of effect and was rewarded with a storm of appreciative applause. * Misa Sallie McBride, who in addition to her other accomplishments is an excellent vocalist, sang so well that she was complimented with a recall. io The lecture was thoughtful and interesting, being replete with sensible suggestions pertaining to educational affairs. Mrs. H. B. Maxfield, who is by the way a most popular and successful teacher of elocution, recited ‘The Painter of Seville’ in a finished and graceful mannér. Twice more was she summoned before the footlights by the pleased listeners, giving as her first response “Girl in Hammock,” and as her second ‘Little Breeches.” Miss Jennie Marsh, a prime favorite with lovers of music, sang sweetly as she always does, and was complimented with an encore when she gave a second ballad. : Following is a summary of the many good things said: by Superintendent Hoitt; THE LECTURE. * The safety and good order of the various communities in any country must. depend upon one of two things: It must depend either upon the education of the masses or upon holding the masses in subjection by arbitrary force. In this country we have no arbitrary government. Hencetlie question of supreme importance is the general.education of all the people. The fact that the children of the nation ‘should bé educated for the safety of the nation, and not merely to prepare them to earn a living, has taken such ahold onthe people during the last half century aa to work an almost entire change in our theories of education. The education of our children is not only a duty resting upon us, but it is an obligation resting upon the State as well, It is not a matter of charity to the poor, but the common right of all, which should be furnished to all at the expense of all and for the safety of all who enjoy the benefit of our Government. : ; : The growth of the public school system bas been almost phenomenal. In 1864 California expended $189,076 to support her schools. Last year she expended $3,889,881 for the same purpose. These figures are large, but the people pay their school taxes cheerfully and expect the best of work from those whose duty it is to manage the schools of the State. The children of the State should be educated at the expense of the State, and this is the only ground upon which we can justify requiring all taxable property to pay its part of the expense of universal education. Every child should be taught to think, to behave, to work and to love his country, and our schools should turn out manly men and womanly women, imbued with a spirit -of patriotism and the belief tha: labor is honorable; that it is only the performance of it in ignorance and darkness that is a crime. : Mr. Hoitt declared that reading, writing, arithmetic and spelling were the essentials, They should be follow ed by industrial drawing, American geography, history, physiology and the science of our government. The High Schools should be maintained and well supported, but since ninety per cent. of the pupils are prevented by circumstances from remainingin school for anything more than the essentials, it is important that their school days be put to the best possible use. Mannal training should form a part of every boy and girl’s education. When men are educated in mind, body and soul, where will pauperism be? : One of the most important elem.nts in theschool education of a child is the moral influence, which cannot be laid down in any course of study nor prescribed by any set rules or limited by any fixed periods of time. Hence that influence should be carefully and watchfylly exerted to the end’ that it may command unhesitating obedience, induce neatness, enjoin sobriety and temperance, require attention and industry, quicken the wits, promote reapect for society and law, encourage independent thinking, create @ love for the beautiful, exact loyalty to truth and inspire a reverence for God. The American flag should hang in every school room and an. occasional hour be spent in singing some of our best patriotic songs, reciting the masterpieces of our national oratory, and in telling the story of our national life till the value of our inberitance is fully appreciated and the pupils imbued with a desire to transmit it broadened and strengthened to the millions who are to follow them. The should go hand in hand with the mental culture, ne To meet the obligations which rest theintellect, train the eye and hand, morals, arouse the patriotism, stimureliant men and women. This done, and our schools will be fulfilling their upon our schools they must cultivate} . sated for its outlay and cordial support. All-this must be done through the agents of the people, known as boards of education and trustees, whose duty it is to select teachers ‘and furnish school buildings. The sooner the be szlected and elected to promote the interests of the schools instead of providing positions for their aunts and neices and cousins, the hetter it will be for the schools and the people generally. Teachers should be required to preshould receive the cordial support. and doing good service teachers should be pensioned. listened to by the large audience with murked attention. It received the applause of the house. HERE AND THERE. A Brief Record of Various Matters of : Local Interest.

Institute Meeting. At 9 A. M. yesterday the teachers were called to order by, Supt. A. J. Tiffany. The usual preliminaries of opening being over, the Grammar and ‘+ assuredly deserves the title of a reli‘. triots.’ It should be more studied in subject of general history. The study of history is of more importance than chemistry or philosophy. It elevates the aspirations and makes true paour public schools. It inspires a thrift for knowledge and makes one familiar with the great minds of all times. Too much time should not be given to details and the movements of armies. It should be studied in connection High School Section retired to: Mr, Hussey’s room, A. J. Tiffany being chairman, while the Primary and Intermediate Section remained in the assembly room, Miss Lizzie Stokes acting as chairman. In the Primary and Intermediate Sections, Miss Sallie McCauley, in accordance with the. program, addressed the institute upon geography, presenting this subject in a pleasing manner, showing that she thoroughly understood it. She believes in exciting the curiosity of scholars and gaining their attention by means of attractive stories and descriptions. Scholars should not be confined too much to the text-book. Mr. Hothersall agreed with Miss McCauley and believed particularly in teaching local geography to scholars end generally enlarging their geographical views, G. A. Brock claimed that teachers should not attempt -to teach everything in geography. He said that we should have experienced teachers in our primary schools in particular, John T. Wickes presented some good opinions on the topic under consideration, giving his ideas on map and globe teaching. Other teachers also gave their views. After recess reading: was introduced by D. Mahoney and discussed at some length by others. The discussion was mainly on the following points: How to gain expression; exercises for class drill; how to use charts; supplementary reading and manner of conducting a reading recitation. In the Grammar and High School Section the first subject, geography, had been assigned to Mr. Hedden. His duty as secretary made it im possible for him to present his views. The chairman asked persons to volenteer their views. Prof. T. B. Gray advocated tle use of lessons upon natHe argued the importance of-asking pupils to tell what they know about the habits of plants and anioals. Mr. Hennesy advocated placing much stress upon the influence of physicial features of the earth upon -civilized society. Miss Dwyer advocated blackboard map drawing in connection with the study, After her pupils are well acquainted with our own conutry and North America, South America should follow and map drawing in connection with every country. Special importance should be given to imports from the country. Mr. Baugh thinks a teacher’s own method is best for him. As people get their knowledge of geography in the public schools we should teach all that they should know so that history should be taught in connection with geography. His remarks were listened to with much interest by the audiance. Prof. Foster objected to taking a book and asking the questions and being satisfied if the answers are correct. The teachers should study the lesson to understand all its bearings. Geography and history should be taken together. Ancient history should be taught in connection with geography of the old world. Two things can be remeimbered better when studied together. The teacher should enlist his own energies in the subject and he will. be able to inlist enthusiam on the part of his pupils, Learn to pronounce correctly. Mr, Crowell advovated the study of natural history in connection with the study of geography. He told some interesting aneedotes illustrating {gnorance of the most common facts of hatural history. Professor Foster was asked and be undertuok to answer a Loumber of questions about natural curiosities in different parts of the world. a Mf. Hussey read an essay upon the with geography. Miss Doom followed-upon'the same subject. The teacher should know history and give interest to the study from her store. Mr. Rilay thinks that our text-books are not suited to teaching the history of our country. History should obser.e some plan or general scheme which they do not. Important truths should be in systematical order and interestingly told. He makes a history lesson of every historical illusion, He read a translation of an éxtract from Livy which he wished to have compared with current historteal recordg. This was followed by a clear caulay and a comparison of Macauley with Livy. Messrs. Foster, Stone, O'Neil, Wickes,Crowell and Fitzgerald, took part in the diseussion in which much interest was manifested. At 1:20 p. m. the convention assembled, every seat being occupied. ~ Miss Bertha M. Freeman upon being introduced had some interesting and instructive kindergarten exercises ; her class of fifteen little pupils singing some beautiful songs and going through some excellent kindergarten exercises. Miss Freeman is surely an accomplished and progressive kinder-. garten teacher. Mér pupils did exceedingly well. This interesting exercise over, the institute was favored with a vocal quartette entitled ‘The Wild Winds Sweep,” by Messrs. Lord and Sleep, Mrs, Barxer and Miss Bays. John T, Wickes expressed his views on ‘What shall be done with the bad boy in school—with him after he is expelled?” Mr. Wickes has sympathy with the boy made bad by the influence of other boys, but not with the boy made obstinate by parental prejudice against a teacher. Mr. Stewart thinks that teachers are dness of their boys, not treating them according to their-nature. J. G. O'Neil spoke upon the influence one bad boy has over another, He also believes that parents are responsible to a great extent for bad boys. When the influence of one boy over another is harmful, and when all attempts to reform him have . failed, then he should be expelled. Mr. Foster claimed that all bad boys could be reformed by interesting them in some work that they like and studying their natures. Judge J. M. Walling ‘said that the best way to handle a boy is to know his peculiaritied. He thinks that the influence of both parents and teachers can reform a boy. Misses Wilhelm and Crase sang “The Flight of the Swallow.” Dr. C, C, Stratton delivered an addresson “The signs of the Times.” The doctor is well known as a lecturer. Comment on his address is therefore unnecessary. : Mrs, Maxfield recited, ‘‘How We Saved St. Michael,’’ in her eloquent style. Misa Josie Fuller of Grass Valley sang 4 beautiful song called “This is My Dream,’’ Mrs. Wm. Moore being .pianist. Dr. C. C.
