able Addresses --Decline in Huron County Popu-
lation Good Staff of Officers Elected.

of the 1Vret Huron Teachers' aneocia-
ti,ott was held in Victoria public school,

The minutes of the last session of
'the brat annual convention, lick, in
Exeter, October IOtb last, were read
and approved,
Inspector J. K. Tom introduced the
subject, Clare Discipline and Heading
i w with Class. He emphasized very
strongly that the pupils should stand
peolo•.ly during the reading les«m,
1 and exhibit life and energy during the
tecitetion. He commended the Pipet -
1 ler as a very useful hook in teaching
reading and pronunciation. The pu-
pils shoubf enunciate Iheir words
clearly and distinctly.
The discussion was continued by
Messrs. Ross and MacKay.
Mitts Lilian J. Clark, of St. Helene,
read an interesting paper on History
for Third (:law, prepared by Misses
Clark and .1. V Durraucr. Tne paper
advocated the uses( the oral method
with bleekl',,ord summary and repto.
duction by pupils. Pupil: not' -looks
must be easefully supervised. Reviews
should be taker) from ibfferent stand-
points than those taken in the lessen,.
This mr.y 1* dans by tracing events
backward., teviewiug Ly dates, re-
calling the story by maps or_pieturee.
History shunlil be closely co -related
with other subjects. The besot: often
furnishes a subject fur compioeitibn.
Current events should be taken i'g-
ularly and lestans drawn therefrom.
The discussion was cont' ed by
lessers. Hoggerth, Johnston. Howard,
1to.a end inspector Tom.
Mr. J. P. Hume, B.A., principal of
the Gnd.•t ich roll-giate institute. de-
livered a aJd
sr on Bird Life.
He
showed that birds are related tit' rep-
tile., thus proving evolution in animal
life. He explained that when lirds
began to Ily surae modifications of the
reptile had to be mails, as the holiest

lower ;stet of the body heavy, etc. He
spoke interestingly ut our winter birds,
winter vi..itors, summerresidenV, etc..
explaining the migratory instinct,
how they travel and the reasons for it.
Mr. Hunte contruenued the action of
the United States government in for-
bidding the use of aigrette, on hats,
because it will teed to preserve the
lives of our feathered friends. He
urged the tearhers to trach their
pupils to protect the birds.
TN1'gv1)AY AFTERNOON.
The sionista.' of the forenoon session
were read and adopted.
Dr. Gallu,v, chairman of the full;c
School hoard of «)oder: h, was prevent
and gave an interesting addressor of wel-
isone to the teachers, reminding thein
that they weregatheied in the pret-
tiest and heal.h,ert town in Canada.
He raised a note of warning against
excessive homework for the pupils.
Mr. Fred Koss delivered the presi-
dent's address, choosing as his subject
The Teacher's Failures. Mr. Roes ad-
vocated that teachers should teseh
their pupils to control themselves. He
should train them for citizenahip, im-
press on them the necessity of pun r n-
ality. regularity, system, promptness
and thoroughness, to respect the aged.

uiunito. He should be methodical, he
should keep bis pupils booty and should
give 1hent his •neer est love. He should
alto he careful to influence the home
life of the conotnlnity. The address
was full of inspiration tor the teachers
prevent.
Prof. Mc('reaty then spoke eloquent-
ly on Huron County's Hural Prob-
lem. He showed this: the population
,•f this county has decreased about
24,0111 in the lost 1 w•env a -floe year+ and
1k91i from 11101 till 1011. Resat Huron
hoe loot I' per cent of their home. in
t here ten years and old Ontario lost
117,1:.4 in the same time.
Counting the people in the auhurlr
of the large cities, the natural increase
of births over deaths and the immi-
grants to 1)ntario bound for the rural
portions of the community, we find
that old Ontario has hist over 4•$1,4•)1
IR her rural population from 1001 to
1,111.
The pssiless dr ivIl y cOuatry today
if to keep a standard people ie the
country. By a standard people is
meant one of average intelligence, of
neral and religions worth.
Prof. McCready looks forward with
bopefnlneas ton time when the rural
papulation will Increase rather than
decrease. To hiring thin about we must
depend on the teachers of the land in
order to •ureeed, the rural p..pulat.otl
moat he ennverted. They must come
to tie point where they will dent aaggri-
cult.nra taught in their srhoota, V.
Oda is done it will transform the rural
school. making it the local twenty skin:
tetth neat tenors, well kept buildings

There were 114 teachers present, the
larg.•st attendance for the fire, day in
the history of the association.
YVENINti ENTERTAINMENT
inspector Tom occupied the chair.
A very pleasant and profitable sea -
situ was hell in the assembly mom of
Ole a.aatiful Victoria school.
Prof. McCready, of the Ontario
Agricultural College, delivered an ex-
cellent address on Progress in Agricul-
tural Education at Horne and Abroad.
The gifted lecturer stated there isn't n
ronntry In the world that hasn't a,
rural problem but one. viz : Denmark.
Ontario has been well organized to
spread agricultural infortnation in the
way of Farmers' Instituter., etc., and
yet she ha, problem.
In ILLS; Denmark was crippled and
discouraged after her disastrous war
with Prussia, but by the establishment
of agricultural high schools the people
became well educated, with their aw-
hitions and patriotism aroused to wake
the t of their opportunities, with
the result that today her rural popu-
lation are the wealthiest antt most
progressive people in Europe.
If a lesson ran be learned from Den-
ms'k, then Ontario's hope lies in the
teaching of agriculture in her public
✓ elook, the appointment by county
counells of dints ict representatives and
the establishment cf an agricultural
department in our high schools and
coIP
la einstitutes, aa foreshadowed
by Prof.
McCready. The Ontario gov-
ernment is spending nearly a million
dollars this year in the interests of ag-
riculture. Huron county should have
ops or more district representative.,
because she Is losing more than any
other county in the province. The
other provinces, especially Manitoha
and Alberts, are alive to the situation
and are doing a good work in the
d issemination of agricultural educa-
tion.
Dr. Gailow gave a gond address on
School Sanitation and urged especially
that schools should not he over-
crowded ; that the ventilation .should
he so attended to that an abundance
of warms fresh air should always he
available;, that the lighting should be
from behind or the side, preferably the
left side : In the heating, provision
should he made for sufficient moisture
in the air : the water should he care-
fully looked after, the water should be
tested and the children should have
individual drinking cups; the out-
houses and general cleanliness should
be carefully attended. The address
wag interesting and profitable.
The ruusicul part of the programme
was excellent, instrume.ntala being
given by Misers Lessee and Vera El-
liott, Mrs. Hunter and Master Wilfred
Ake:meet, and solos by Misses Mc-
Clinton and Stoddart. the male quer-
tette. Messrs. Thomson. Brandt, Hun-
ter and Kitts. delighted everybody.
Lunche. n was thoughtfully provided
hy the Goderich teachers and was en-
joyed by all.

FEEDING YOUNG CHICKS

Do not (ee.1 too soon : When the

egg to last it for several days. What
the . hick requires for the tlrst few
days is not feed but warmth and rest.
A little rand or grit Hast : When
the chicks ate removed to their brood-
iug quarters there should be some
coarse sand or floe chick grit scatter-
ed where they can have flee access to
it. They should then he left until they
show positive signs of hunger which
would be between the 2nd or lard day
