Approximately 125 public
school teachers attended the
convention and heard addresses
from three noted educational-
ists.
Mr. G. Dobrindt, master at
London Teachers' College, gave
an address on creative compo-
,sition for the middle classes and
told his audience that there was
no subject where as little pro-
gress from the traditional ap-
proach has been made than in
the teaching of composition.
He warned the teachers to
avoid the practice of having the
students write compositions on-
ly for the practise of word or-
der, punctuation and formal
sentence structure.
The London man also stated
that they should not be used
without a specific motivation or
creative purpose or to be writ-
ten without the hope of recog-
nition for the students.
He outlined a long list of ideas
that could be used for composi-
Lions such as: reporting school
functions, writing friends, social
notes, scripts for mock pro-
grams or interviews, accounts
of personal experiences and
stunts, skits and charades, plus
a host of others.
During his talk he also out-
lined guides for personal and
business letter writing and par-
agraph writing.
Mrs. G. N. Edwards, a Strat-
ford reading consultant, gave
the teachers several sugges-
tion's for teaching poetry and
stressed the fact to choose an
enjoyable poetry for study,
She also suggested that poe-
try should be read aloud as of-
ten as possible as children
speak as well as they hear.
In introducing her topic, Mrs,
Edwards said, "prose is words
in the best order, while poetry
is the best words in the best or-
der".

The final speaker on the pro-
gram was Mrs. Richard Thomp-
