George Leslie Omwake, A. B.

dean of Ursinus College, Collegeville, had a bone to pick with 'the Dauphin county teachers at the third day of institute this morning. He deplored the fact that education is not a profession and that the fundamental rules are lacking in the average teacher's make up, but so subtlely and Bhrewdly did the educator impress his auditors with the truth of his assertions that, as the outburst of applause which greeted the close of his address testified, he won the two hundred odd teachers over to his way of thinking. It was an unusual and extraordinary talk. In fact, so far did the educator deviate from the trodden path of institute speeches that the teachers were taken wholly surprise at his first announcement. "As a body," declared Dr.

Omwake, "we you see I include myself, for I am one of you teachers are amateurs. Of course, there are some instructors entitled to the distinction of being rightfully called professionals, but they are comparatively few." Demonstrated His Theories. To demonstrate his theories Dr. Omwake used blackboard illustrations. The educator said: "I disagree from a prominent lecturer who asserted that education in this country Is a failure.

While education may seem to be a failure, we are on the dawn of a new era in the art. It is of a totally different character from tho nineteenth century idea. We shall pass, from the amateur age to tho professional go, and we look forward to the day when we will be classed as professionals in the same sense of the word as ar the members of the bar, the physicians and the ministers." "The Three Fields of Pedagogy" was the title of the educator's discourse. By his blackboard illustrations Dr. Omwake showed how the teachers could perfect themselves in the art of instruction, something that they should do before attempting to teach somebody else.

Used Chart to Explain. "What is education" he asked, and answered the question himself. "Boiled down, it is taking a child from where he is to where he ought to be." The following chart was put on the board in explanation: IS OUGHT TO BE Biology Ideals History Philosophy Sociology Relationship Anthropology to God Psychology to Man Drawing a sweeping line from the word "Psychology" to the word "Ideals," Dr. Omwake grew almost dramatic and, raising himself on his tiptoes, shouted: "That's the trouble; the teachers start at the wrong end. He tries to teach a child what he doesn't know himself.

If you would study those five sciences, biology, history, sociology, anthropology and psychology, you would be put in possession of a body of facts with which you could teach. If you haven't them, your work in the school room has been guess work." GATES ON THEM0RSE CASE Sorry For Convicted Man, But Says It's a Powerful Lesson to Bankers. Galveston, Nov. 11. John W.

NUMEROUS CONVENTIONS HELD Last Week Towns in the Vicinity of This City Were Visited by State Field Workers and Much Enthusiasm Was Shown Upper End Will Be the Scene of Many Conferences This Week Work Will Be Continued Until November 2-1. The Dauphin County Sabbath School Association, which is interdenominational in character, is conducting a successful itinerary throughout the county and conducting conferences and conventions at which every phase of modern Sunday school work is intelligently presented and discussed. This tour is under the personal direction of Mr. James W. Barker, the energetic president of the county association, who is ably seconded by the county departmental super intendents and district officers.

Will Wind Up November 24. Mr. Deemer Beidleman, of Wilkes-Barre, one of the State field workers, accompanies the touring party and will remain until the finish of the itinerary, November 24. Mr. Beidleman is enthusiastic and practical and is "on his job all the time." He has a winning personality, is an acceptable and entertaining speaker, and withal a persistently hard worker who gets results and brings things to pass.

Conventions and institutes were held last week at Enterline, Fisherville, Oberlin, Union Deposit, Hanoverdale and Linglestown. On Monday at Halifax; Tuesday, Millersburg. To-day a convention 1s being held in the Church of God at Penbrook. From Thursday until next Tuesday meetings will be held in the townships in the upper end of the county, the party returning to Harrisburg on Tuesday, where several days will be spent in holding institutes and conventions. Middletown, Steelton, Highspire and Londonderry and Cone-wago townships will also be visited possibly other points.

Much Enthusiasm Shown. These meetings so far have been well attended and considerable interest and enthusiasm has been aroused. Some 22 teachers' training classes have been instituted; the organized men's Bible classes have been strengthened and new ones are to be started. The cradle roll and home departments were increased numerically and the forward movement in Sunday schools has received an impetus that will without doubt bring the Sunday schools of Dauphin county into the front line position. And this is as it should be, as the next annual State convention is to be held in this city in October, 1909.

Pennsylvania Leads. In discussing his work Mr. Beidleman to-day said: "The progress the Sunday schools havo made during the past decade is most marked, especially so in Pennsylvania, which easily leads all others in practical methods and securing results. Eight persons are employed by the Stato Sabbath School Association, everv one of whom is pivinp his or her entire time to Sunday school work. About $22,000 was raised at the State convention at Shamokin in October to meet the expenses of the State association.

"Never before in the history of Sunday school work were there so. many men from all walks of life actively interested in this splendid movement. Never before were there greater results and never before did the Sunday school command the respect of all classes as at the present time and never before was the work so clearly defined and understood and prosecuted as now. Surely tho Sunday school of to-day has a definite mission and is meeting its obligations with a solid front and a faith and determination that mean victory all along the line."
