The attendance at yesterday s session
of the Nebraska State Teachers' associa
tion nearly filled the First Methodist
church; and before noon It was further in
creased by belated arrivals, whose suit
csser and baggage mane a consiucrauie
pile In the vestibules.
The business) session proved a farce owing
to Its place at the close of the program.
In fact, this arrangement was responsible
fur the elimination of one of the most
anticipated addresses of the morning, that
of Superintendent W. K. Clifford of Council
Bluffs, and availed little, as scarcely a
score of members participated In It. and
the voice of President Bodwell could not
be heard back of the flrat row of pews
owing to the noisy visiting at the rear of
the church.
Two. amendments to the constitution sub
mitted by President Fowler were passed,
one providing that no memlier could hold
office In the association unless he or she
be. actively engaged In the actual school
work of Nebraska; another making the
State Teachers' Reading board a part of
the association.
It was rumored during the morning that
an amendment would be made to the re
port of the resolutions committee recom
mending that the next meeting of the as
sociation be held In Omaha, but nothing
developed. In fact, the resolution com
mittee had not been regularly appointed
and when the report was read- It Included
only expressions of appreciation of th hos
pitality that had been shown th visiting
members.
An additional resolution . was orrereu
In the various rooms the session of the recommending the adoption of the course
sections were carried on 'simultaneously.

evening. . ...
"The Huwanee River." sung by the Wag
ner Chorus, an organisation of Omaha
Mr. Msry
H. Hunt of Boston, superintendent of acien
llfio temperance instruction cf the National
Women's Christian Temperance union, was
the first speaker, that work furnishing the
subject of her addrrsc. It was a trmper
ame taik that she gave and her argument
backed and sustain)) by the nmllng
of the varfb'us vTThferences that have been
appointed,!))' different nations to Investi
gate the effects tif alcohol 'on the human
nystcm and formulate some means to pre
vent degeneration through the use of alco
hol. Scientific temperance, education, she
said, Inm come to be generally recognized
as necessary to hls need.
Mrs. Hunt represented the t'nlted States
government at the conference held In Ku
rope recently to consider thla subject and
waa later summoned by the empress of
Germany to further explain the work as
proposed by her bhd the systems that have
been employed In tho public schools of llin
various states since 1S82. Mrs. Hunt advo
cated its Introduction Into the curriculum
of the schools and, she said, as statistics
show that the school life of the average
child in this country Is about five years,
that It be Introduced In the primary and
lower grades and a substantial foundation
laid there for further and better under
standing, as it I'. us been recently In somo
of the countries of western Europe, who
have come to recognize Its need.
Superintendent V. M. Davidson of the
Omaha public schools changed his subject
from "A Trinity of Alms. in Education," as
hud been announced, to "Some Defects in
Teachers J Have Known," for the reason,
he explained, that his subject hud been so
well covered by. President Dowllng aud
Miss Arnold ofXBuston Thursday. He as
sured Ms aiidlepoo the flaws he referred to
had been found previous to his advent In
Nebraska. ,
"It ought not to be an unpleasant task to
anyone to study defects In teaching." said
the qeaker. "Neither will such study
lower the character or quality of a teach-
rr't work. Indeed, Just as a teacher mas
ters the science of pedagogics (if defects,
unwritten though It is, Just In that propor
tion will she reach a position from which
she la likely to rriake a healthy and robust
advancement In the character of her work.
And then, after a common sense discus-
slo.i, sympathetic to the teacher and the
child alike, the following faults were
presented:
First The failure to magnify sufficiently
the small mutters and details of the school;
lack of proper courtesy to children.
Second Lack of proper preparation for
the work of teaching.
Third Lack of general culture acquired
by general rending.
Fourth Lack of interest In the things
that Interest the child; no sympathy with
children.
Fifth Lack of patience.
Sixth Failure to get results because of
growing wesry In well doing.
Seventh No well defined notion as to
what to require of the pupils in discipline,
study or preparation.
Klght"i No grasp of the subjects they
are trrtng to teach.
Ninth Failure '' to confine 'the lesson
within the period designated.
Tenth Teachers who have no heart In
their work. '
Eleventh Those who hurry to make rash
haste.
Twelfth Marking time.
Fourteenth Lax and lackldssical In re
citation. Fifteenth Nonpunctuallty.
Sixteenth Turulnsr from tha lessons 'of
one class to discipline the other class.
Seventeenth- Failure to lead teachers to
do quick, rapid work.
Eighteenth Giving too much attention to
slow 'pupils.
Nineteenth Fusel lies.
Twentieth Crushing the life out of a
class by tyranny and discipline; Inability
to govern by kindness.
Twenty-first Confounding the Idea' of
Older and keeping still the real discipline.
Twenty-sscond Yielding to bad temper;
self-control.
Twent -third fc'evar positive about any
thing, i
Twenty-fourth Not knowing how to dravt
out a child's knowledge.
Twenty-fifth Being able to see mistakes
In others' work, but none In her own.
Twenty-sixth An excess of timidity or
egotism.
Twenty-seventh Teachers who never
clinch anything In a recitation.
Twenty-eighth The " barber shop "
teacher with her cry of "Next." - Next." at
the failure of every pupil, and lastly, the
teacher who never knows . how to visit
other schools.
Though W. X. Clifford waa for the second
time given the platform, he courteously
withdrew, saying that while he appreciated
the courtesy of the houne, It was noon, and
he considered that It was due to the
teachers to be allowed to adjourn.

Omaha Principal Heads Paper
Government of Primaries.
Miss Clara B. Mason, principal of the
Clifton Hill school In Omaha, rend a paper
on "Discipline In the Primary Grades" at
the primary section meeting in room 'IH
of tha high sehool Friday afternoon. Miss
Mason was one of the few women on the
program of the National Educational asso
ciation's meeting In Boston In VMS. when
she read her paper on "Nebraska Experi
ments In Co-operation of Public Libraries
with Public Schools." Following Is a part
of Miss Mason's paper on discipline:
Discipline In the primary grades is so
Interwoven with ethics, rchool management,
environment and possibly the most potent
factor of all t he personality of the teacher
as to make It difficult to disassociate it
from these closely allied subjects.
Since "the thing learned is but a trifle
compared with the habit formed," It fol
lows that for a child to love Ills school,
to take his part In the community life of
that school, and at the earliest possible
moment to have learned to think of the
world as a great family and feel his kin
ship In that family, to see his dependence
upon ot Iters and the need of doing his
share of the world's work this Is of much
greater value to htm than the covering of
a aiven number ot pages In text books.
The word "discipline ' brings to mind al
most as ninny varieties of that needful
part of school economy as there are teach
ers present today. But these manifold
varieties will cluster around a few prom.
nent kinds, which will touch us an mom
or tess at some point.
There Is the military form st one ex
treme. In which pupils are one, two,
three d into their seats and out again.
Books ami slntes are one, two, tlitve'd Into
desks and out again. The child learns to
respond to numerical directions as un
devlatingly as the machine to the crank
which sets It In motion. But let the un
expected happen, making' the directions Im
possible, and the teacher finds a Juvenile
mob on her hands.
There should be liberty without license
in the well regulated school a freedom
which Is careful not to trespass upon the
rights of othera a spirit or helpfulness
wnlch comes from recognition of our rie
peiinence, one upon another a courtesy
which Is the outward expression ot kind
ness of heart and not the veneer with
which compulsion glosses carelessness or
rudeness.
Enter the school room resolved to rule
by force and harsh words and you will
have occasion for the frequent use of boih.
A comoatlve spirit In you will surely
arouse one In them. Do they dislike study?
Then It s certain that you also dislike it
and that your mind does not take pleasure
In your duties as teacher.
In discipline, as in other respects, teach
ers may lie divided into those who are
born, those who are made and those who
are neither born nor made.
No doubt heredity limits the effect of ed
ucational processes upon children. Nature
fixes tho limit within which It Is po.-s bla
to cause changes. So, too, the bad effect
of home training Is beyond the teacher'b
control, thus making our problem one
most difficult of solution.
But what Is the aim of an education
order alone not to Compel obedience or
attention for this may be done throuan
those external means which the Strong us
In their Intercourse with the weak, but to
produce what is aptly ch irat terlaed as a
"self-governing l;?l" "-nnu whose moral
consciousness has not been blunted by
the display of needless authority ct bv
appeal to mistaken motives In the decision
for right conduct.
Teach the children to work. There Is a
vital difference between work and plav, and
let them face this truth early. Teach them
that Idleness Is a sin. Make the room at
tractive; see tha the ventilation, heat ami
ugni me as they snould lie; that the seats
ami oesks are right for comfort; dress

woria we are tilling tneni for. and wa must
enforce our authority lest we help to jear
generation ot lawless citizens, in sclioi
as we lind thorn there are times when

To my mind dlselnllne is the verv essene
of the teacher's Individuality and should bt
allowed to follow the outlines nf one's pe
culiar powers; It should furnish an outlet
of expression for tho teacher's spirit. Self
control Is the legitimate primary object of
a child's Instruction. Discipline should In
no way repress activity, but direct It by
means of regulated restraint. Activity w
must have, for without it there would be
nothing to discipline. As teachers our prob
lem Is to retain the Immense vitality of
children, to purify It by admixtures of
higher life qualities and above all, to keep
it in continuous expression. Let him do
and show him how.

and the success of our methods of discip

That the discipline of the school should
be such as to put tha pupil most surely In
command of himself, of ills best powers
of accomplishment and of service In what
ever line of work choice or Inheritance
or circumstances may decide ' for him Is
