Welcome to The Teachers
On behalf of tho peoplo of Norfolk
The News extends to tho teachers of
northoost Nebraska a cordial welcomo to
tho oity May your stay bo productive
of much ploasnro and may you acquire
information that will bo beneficial in
your work and holpf ul to the schools
over which you preside
As hero assembled your organization
gives indication of a large and intelli
gent membership yet it is but a small
proportion of a vast army of workers
similarly engaged in this our literate
and progressive conutry You and your
co workers aro exerting intelligent en
deavors to make this great publig school
system of America tho grandest institu
tion for learning in the world and if
the peoplo can in anyway assist you in
approaching an ideal it is their privilege
and duty to do so
Your pathway is not entirely strewn
with roses In teaching the obstreper
ous youth that which he should know
you have a task which few aro compe
tent to handle and few there are to envy
you your wore xnerorore wnon you
assemble for tho exchange of ideas and
to enjoy whatever entertainment may
be provided for your pleasure none can
but hope that when you leave you will
feol that your time has been well spent
and that your visit to Norfolk has been
pleasant and profitable
The News hopes that this visit will
result in now and valuable acquaint
ances between yon and the citizens of
Norfolk and that yon will cherish a
happy recollection of your visit for
many days
You ore workers in a system of publio
education that is a wonder and example
to the world No country provides for
its boys and girls a more generous and
thorough course of instruction in the
rudiments of knowledge than tho United
States of America
The system 1b not only thorough but
it is within the reach of all High or
low rich or poor are blessed with its
advontanges In view of the work that
is being done by you has been done by
your predecessors aud will be continued
by your successors it is little wouder
that the people of the United States are
attaining an intellectual development
that is at once their pride and the
worlds envy Nor is it a wonder that
the country is approaching a commercial
Bnpremaoy and political power that
astonishes the world
This system in whioh yon are factors
was first vaguely conceived of by Plato
and has been developing through cent
uries in whioh such men as Groote
Luther Sturm Comenius Milton Jaco
tot Spencer McGuffey and Franklin
performed their part These early edu
cators would be happily surprised could
they know how perfect the educational
system had become at this modern date
and that with other advancements of
rod would undoubtedly commend pro
sent methods could bo behold tho result
but in his tlmo a person who would
havo suggested modern educational
ideas would bo looked upon as a most
visionary being
Tho peoplo may not fully appreciate
tho advantages of your progression at all
times but results will testify to tho wis
dom of tho courso pursued In your
prosont association it is to bo desired
timt great steps for the advancement of
tho work in Nebraska may bo taken
Mcantimo that you may enjoy your

der one officer connected with tho al

though an International force Is desir
able It would be better that the po
lice detail should bo composed of sol
diers who are not liable to be called
away when they arc most useful It Is
also undesirable he thinks thnt the
commandant should be an officer ac
tively connected with the army while
the Intention to make each legation
practically an armed camp Is a great
mistake and Is liable to cause friction
and It would be better far to make a
general International district
