FOR MORE UNITY
The suggestion comes from one of
the good teachers of Alaska that there
ought to be a teachers’ convention
called next summer at some point in
the territory. The is a
good one and should have the support
not only of all the teachers in the gov
ernment schools, but of the teachers
In all the s*huols in the territory. The
schools are necessarily far separated!
and there is consequently likely to he |
much diversity in methods of instruc
tion as well as in courses of study.
The very lact of the isolation of the
*
Schools, instead of being a reason tor not j
calling the teachers together, makes
such a convention all the more neces
sary in order that the teachers may
formulate lines of work that will have
more of uniformity, and thus become
more effective in properly educating
the pupils under their charge.
It might seem that the great dis
tance by which t be government schools
are separated would be an insur
mountable object in the way of a suc
cessful convention of teachers, but
distance do°s not stauu in the way
of bolding a successful meeting of the
National Educational Association in
the states such year, and while the
convenience of travel is greater there,
the pluck and love of the work on the l
part of the teachers in this territory will ,
more than make up for the iav*,t\of con- j
venience in modes of travel. Alaskans
easily surmount difficulties that would
seem insurmountable barriers to those
accustomed to all the ease and com-j
forts of the states. It would not be a
difficult matter to assemble the greater
part of the principals of Alaska
schools in a convention once a year,;
Such an organization would he an iu-:
Spiration to the teachers. it would ;
also be a means whereby they could j
make their work more uniform, and |
they would receive in addition a new j
Impetus and new ideas for the more1
successful prosecution of the selfsacri
ficing work in which they are en
gaged. .
Skating on uie Lake
The cold weather of tlie past wet k j
has formed a good thickness of ice on 1
the little lake north ol the ice pond,
and as there is no snow a tine natural I
skating rink has been formed, and the j
young people are enjoying the oppor.
tunity for wholesome exercise before
the winter's snows come to spoil their
enjoyment.
