The first educational institute held in Cherokee county watt in session hero last week, under the direction of Superintendent E. L. llusihes, of Greenville, assisted by Mr. O. IJ. Martin, of Greenville, and Miss Ma mie Wicklilf, of Winthrop College. It proved a success in interesting and stimulating the teachers in at tendance. The work of the instruc tors h is been suggestive, inspiring and helpful. Mr. Martin’s work was with the subjects of history, lan guage and geometrical drawing, and he gave valuable teaching points in all three. Miss Wicklilf is thor oughly skilled in primary methods, especially in the theory and practi cal teaching of phonetics in reading and spelling. She is bright, quick, and attractive in her manner of pre senting her work, and makes a favor able impression on ail who hear her. Superintendent Hughes gives practi cal and interesting lessons on condi tions, principles, aims, aids, and methods of education, school man agement, professional work of teach ers, etc. The daily sessions were full of life and iuter<->t, drill lessons in singing, word study, physical exer cises, drawing, writing, etc., being interspersed with the lectures. The night exercises were well attended and the audience of teach ers and citizens much pleased with them. On Monday night Superin tendent Hughes spoke to the people of the Gaffney Manufacturing Com pany’s village, on the ‘Home. th«- School, and the Workshop,” and showed the intimate relation between happy homes, efficient labor and ed ucation. On Tuesday night he lec tured to a large audience at the Sem inary, where the sessions of the in stitute are held on “What the man in the moon saw.” This was a unique and enjoyable lecture with plenty of humor mixed with some pungent points of seriousness. Thursday night Hr. E. S. Joyncs, of Columbia, gave one of bis polished and forciful lectures to the largest audience of the week. His subject was “The Old and the New.” He spoke of the value of institutes; reverted to the old time school; contrasted the old with the new; reviewed the points of weakness or strength, and the signs of hope in the present educational status, and closed with the prophecy of a bright day. Friday night the in stitute closed with an interesting program, consisting of recitations by Misses Littlejohn and Morgan, and Mr. Martin, guitar solo, by Miss Sloan, piano solo, by Miss McArthur, chalk talk, by Sup’t Hughes, vocal solos and duet, by Mrs. Fay Gaffney, and Mrs. Luney, violin solo, by Miss Hose Johnson, with Prof. Johnson, accompanist A brass quartette from the Gaffney band, in charge of Caps. Cutting, superintendent of the Gaff ney Mill, added to the enjoyment of the night exercises also,’ and the vocal quartette consisting of Messrs. Dupre and J.’ scornb, Mrs. Laney anti Miss Gaff. with Prof. John son at the piano, rendered some de lightfully artistic music. Profs. Griffith and Mack, of Coop er-Limestone. Prof. Sams, formerly of the Seminary, Prof. Hall, who is to be associated with superintendent McArthur in the Seminary, and Prof. Chambers, of N. C., athorough schol ar and up-to-date teacher, who has recently become a citizen of Gaffney and D in charge of the Gaffney High school, were interested visitors and attendants during the week. On the whole, County Superintend- entMcArthur expressed himself us much pleased with his first institute, and is already planning to make the next one a greater success. — - - —* On next Wednesday the session of IS'.iJ-S of the Gaffney Seminary will commence. Prof. McArthur has as sociated with him for the coming session Prof. W. S. Hal), A. M., and other teachers of ability. The out look for a successful session is very promising. Prof. S. A. Chambers will open the Gaffney High School on August ‘J.'lrd, next Monday. This is the institu tion Prof. It. C. Surratt lias eo suc cessfully conducteu for some years past. Prof. Chambers comes here from Brevard, X. C., where he has been teaching for a term of years. He has had the school building neatly fitted up and improved and old scholars will hardly know the place. The indications are that the coming session will be the most successful in the history of the school. Prof. Chambers will be assisted by Mrs. Chambers, who will conduct u couple of kindergarten classes and Miss Kvu Sams, who will teach in the higher grades.
