County Teachers Meet

County Teachers Meet

The Washtenaw County Teachers' Association holds its November meeting at Chelsea tomorrow, Nov. 12. An interesting program has been prepared. The first number of the morning session is a paper by Supt. A. D. DeWitt, of Dexter, on "The Metric System." The discussion of this paper will be followed by a general discussion of various subjects of educational concern.

In the afternoon the opening number will be an exhibition lesson of primary class work with children of the Chelsea schools under the direction of Miss Townsend, one of the teachers of that village. Such an exercise, in the bands of an experienced teacher, is always most interesting and valuable because it is concrete, a living example of what is actually being done in class room work.

Miss Marie Kirchhofer, of Manchester, will give an amount of the "Trip to Washington and the N. E. A." Miss Kirchhofer is an interesting writer and will unquestionably be entertaining and instructive with her subject Commissioner Lister will talk to the teachers on the Michigan Teachers' Reading Circle, an organization in which every teacher should be interested. Supt. J. W. MoKone, of Albion, bas taken for the subject of his remarks "One of Those Good Talks." The teachers of the county who became acquainted with him in the institute last summer need not be told that this will be "One of Those Good Talks."

The program will be interspersed with good music furnished by students of the Chelsea high school. There should be a large attendance.
