I. 0. 0. F. ANNUAL SESSION' OF THE
GRAND ENCAMPMENT.
Ottawa, August 7.—For the first them
the eOddfellows of Ontario are holding
their annual-conNmsition in the Capital of
the Dominion.* The Order has been very
strong in the eastern part of the province,
and the expense that would be incident to
. . ,
meeting in that seetion has hitherto kept
the 'Grand bodies in a more westerly di-
rection.. It was -decided-, hew -ever, to. try
the experiment this year, and as a conse-
quence the Oddfellows of Ottawa leave
been exerting themselves energetically to
make the occasion a notable one. They
have got tip! an interesting programme ,for
the general [public *on Wednesday, which
will inchiele-all manner of garnes, a com-
petitive 'drill of uniformed degreecamps
d a promenade' concert inethe evening,
land the Mayor has proclaimed that day
a public holiday.
Oia Tuesday the Grand 'Enearneem nt
opened at 9 o'clock, with it full attendance
of officers and members. From the re-
ports of the Gravel offipers it appears that
this branch of the order has been prosper-
ing during the past year. Two new
en-
campnents had -been organized; Outaeuis,
No. 53; at Ottawa, March 26, and Mizpah,
No. 51', at "Barrie 'June 21. • Four uni-
formed degree camps were opened at
London, Hamilton,, Kingstorri and St.
Thoma, while applicati4es'for charters
had been re.ceived from other•elocalities.
TweritY-nine encarnpmente had increased
in membership, six were StatiOnari, ten
had slightlyt decreased; the 'reports had
not been received from. the 'others. To-
ronto Encanipment is the strongest in the
•ProvinCe with .ea membership of 141'
Harmony, of London,' comes next, with
128. The united membership of the two
encamPments in London, however, ex-
ceeds that of the Toronto encampments,
there Tieing 223 inthe former city and 183
in the latter. The seven largest encamp-
-inentsein the Province are these ,—Tciron-
to, No.18, 141 members; Harmony-, No. 3,
Of London 198 • Brock\\No 9 of Brock-
ville, 194; Frontier, No: 2, Windsor,101 ;
Adelphiam, No. 38, London, 95; Union,
No. 1 St. Cetharines, 92. -
. • The following statistics show the opera-
tions of the, encampments for the year

Devin Si,—Hevine given ideas of the'eX-
tent of our school section, population and
attendance, :rate of taxation, and draw:
back from some division of funds to the
neighboring separate school, it is open to
complaining teachers to eriticise our
school management. •-
It isnot merely the amount of salary
that leads to abandonment ,of the profes-
eicin e but the necessity of active natures
to have agreeable, useful and profitable
employment for their whole working•pow--
,ers during every working, day, instead. of •
for only six hours or for five days in the
week, besides the holidays.. Thus, a
teacher is engaged for from eighty to
ninety days fewer than any other worker, .
besides the shorter hours, on the days he
is engaged ; making little better than three
quarters of the year. •
• There was at one time in this section
three, school teachers with first-class cee-
tificaites, and one with a 'Recood, who had
other industries. One owns ten acres and
is now superannated. Another forty acres, •
which he energetically worked 'betore and
After, school, widen off days. Saving from
the beginning, he married, and the, wife's =
father gave a detached and rough four. or
five acres from his farm, on, whieh the
teacher built a small house. 'This was
disposed of for the forty, andetherlatter
fee fifty in an ,adjoining section, on 'which -
'he bnilt an elegant brick hose, and ' then
superanuated. Another took up thhmak-
itsg
.
(4 flour barrels ; brit droPped school
and coopering for sewing machine and
other peddling agencies. These taught in
our school, or in (ethers within ...walking
'distance for • inany years. The •last,
brought up in the section, a scholar in its
school, and then .a teacher in: it for two
year; paid his board in labor at home.
Girls occupy their leisure about their
clothing and care of their room. Two have
declibed re-engagerneut from having • the
opportunity of taking schbols near their
homes.; and two others have been released,
so as to.•accept such convenient engage-
d -lents. • •, - -
• Teaching is sometimes entered upon
•only for a time, by students for other pro-
feeeions; or for principals of high scheele
or collegiate institutes. •.Teachers in towns
soneetimes have 'opportunitiesof emolu-
eMent by teaching evening schools, er giv-
ing private lesson, or keeping books.
Last winter a teacher of my Iacquaintance
was.ongaged in a night school twice•in the
week, --at a - dollar eachevening. His sala-
ry was $600.
