Rtc'u.tiw JE WIT I' After illness from congestion of the lungs, Richard Jewitt passed away at the home of his brother, Wm. Jewitt, Mill street, Brussels, on the evening of the 5th. Deceased was only in bed for a few days, hence his death came as somewhat of a surprise to those outside of the immediate neighbor. hood, He was born in. Yorkehire, England, nearly 80 years ago and came. to Canada in 1850. For the first 10 years they lived in Peel County and then moved westward to Morris town- ship where they located on the 2nd line. Here the subject of this notice continued to live until coming to Brus- sels 7 years ago, making his home with his brother. He was a member of the Methodist church and his seat was seldom vacant nee bis testimony wanting. Mr. Jewitt never married. The funeral took place Wednesday afternoon the service being conducted by deceased's paster, Rev. D. Wren. Interment was, made • in family plot, Browntown cemetery.

"Tuesday morning of last week Mr. Bryane was as well as ever and called in at the Standard Bank to transact some business about noon. While standing Mettle desk writing his name he was overtaken by a stroke of par- alysis and would have fallen to the floor had he not been supported by Manager Samis. Dr. Bryane was sum- moned and his uncle knew him and he spoke a few words to those who were at hand. Observing that the stricken man was not rallying he was conveyed to his comfortable home on Queen et, His power of speech was gone but for a time he could hear and appeared to know a part of what was said to him. Later Mr. lJryanslapsed into unconsoi- a aeuese wbi :h continued until he passed ssed away Thursday morning, The subject li of this' notice was born in Ireland in the year 1815 and was consequently ' n his 'rand year. Along with his father's family he came to Canada when about 2 years of age. After making their home near Dundee. Ont., for ten or more years, they moved westward and bought a farm on the Eastern boundary !, of Morrie'Townehip where the family located. Mr. Bryane continued on hie farm for 56 years, retiring ;3t, years ago when he sold and came to Rruesele purobasing a home from Geo. Brown, of 'Toronto, 1n March 1879, Mr. Bry. ane was united ii: marriage to Miee Margaret Gallaher, of Wroxeter. and oh ewitb one son (Dr. ;p.,dwarel, doing his duty at present as a ettrgeon i;>1 France) and two: daughters, (Bliss Ina at home and Mies Berva, who is teach, ing in Toronto) are left to mourn the sudden demise of husband and father Decesaed was a kind, and -obliging man industriaaa and thrifty and was an hr tereeted member a $t. John's Anglican Church, holding the ofdice of Warden for years, ,He was well and favogrably known as was ,evidenced by the very large attendance at his funeral from various points. The serNice was held in St. John's Church, Saturday after- noon, the chancel being draped in black, Rev. R. E. Page, lector, con• ducted a most appropriate Bernice the edifice being crowded to its capacity. Pallbearers were Albert and Wm. Gall- aher, («•others -in law, and Edward and Harvey Bryane, and Juhn•and Dr, Fred Bryane, nephews of deceased, Many lle,li.h' came mato to attend the last sod raw." to an old friend, Wm Bryane of Morrie township the oldest brother of the family, is the sole survivor now. Among relativeo from a distance were Mrs, Goodfellow and Mies Ada Gali. cher, Toronto, and Mrs Chapple Ham- ilton. sisters of Mrs. Bryanep The sud- denese of Mr. Bryans death when he was apparently so hearty and vigorous came as a great shock to the commun- ity and should remind people that •' Here we have no continuing city.' Widespread sympathy ie extended d to tire. Bryans and family in their sud- den and unexpected bereavement, Judging by appearance deceased had few marks incident to old age. Mr, Bryane bid fair to live for over 20 yearn, his father having attained the royal old age of 00 years, Interment was wade in Brussels cemetery.

With these etudents to look after the Society's interests, we look forward to a successful and interesting series of meetings during the fall. The euper- vising teachers are Mies M. I. White and Mr. la H. Butcher. A Splendid Method A new method to bring out the people to a patriotic meeting was tried out at Elmwood recently and worked like a charm ae will be eeen by the following;—"When Mr, John Row- land, accompanied by Major Hender- son and other Walkerton talent, reached Elmwood on Wednesday of last week to address a patriotic meet- ing, they found the hall empty and most of the villagers sound asleep. A less determined aggregation Would have thrown up the job and let Elm- wood snore on. But as Mr, Rowlett) had prepared a red hot speech, and as the lose of its delivery might seriously affect the fortunes of the war at the front, our townsmen decid- ed that Elmwood must pull their heads out of the pillows and hear it, The war was far away and ae the villagers couldn't see the smoke they retired early and let the flre-works rage on. Believing that the thought of smoke, nearer hone would make them more anxious a ,to cave; their bacon, Mr, Rowland hiked over to the village bell and rang -the fire alarm. The thing worked like a charm, and the rapidity with which the villagers came out of their houses reminded one of the Johnstown flood. •Mr.Bowland soon had a bunch around him who were sore . enough to have licked the Kaiser and all his band. Our towns- men took advantage of their anger and led them over to the meeting ball where he soon got up steam and work- ed on the feelings of one of the largest crowds ever assembled under an Elm- wood roof. Before he finished he had them all looking with clenched flats and gritted teeth towatde Berlin, and- if a pro -German had but hoved in sight a riot would have occurred and some body been-msseaored on the spot. If the Walkertoniaue found Elwwood asleep they had it wakened up" before they left, akright." If some one in Wingbam had only tried this plan on Monday night of last week when Rev. Dr. McGillivray and other men addressed the patriotic m eeting in the town Bali, it might have been a good move. Wingham surely slept. Another Landmark gone The village of It. Helens passed a landmark in its history on October 14, Whet( the post office there closed, Ow. log to the development of the rural mail eerylce, the volume of the bug - neat! at the office has so (alien off that the Department no longer considers' it profitable or necessary.

Beatty, Egmondville, Moved by Mr, Holman, seconded by Mr, Shillinglaw, that we meet next year in Clinton. Carried, Mr, Bouck thanked the Association. for the honor conferred on him in el- ecting him to the presidency, Then, taking as the subject of his address, "The School and the 9bild", after showing that the surest and quicnest way to improve humanity is to im- prove the people themeelves, he put in a very earnest plea for a vastly more sympathetic study of the child, and of his individual needs, a far more elastic school system, and a great deal less conservatism in the great bod y of teachers. The child bac a rigiat to demand of us smaller classes and more individual attention, so that his individualism may rot be cast into the background. Mr. A. A. Naylor, of Seaforth, Bailed the attention of the teachers to the fact that until 1917, at least, by ordering through thesecretary of the Aaeociat_ ion, they can get "The School" for one year for the sum of 75 cents. He then gave a talk on 13. 0. 11'. and L. C, M., emphasizing the importance of having the pupils know when to find the high- est Common Factor and the Lowest Common Multiple, as well as how. The various methods of finding each were 'taken up in order of difficulty, and the principle on which the usual' method of finding the H. 0, F. ie based, viz.; That any number which is a factor of two numbers is also ;t factor of the sum or difference of any multiple of those numbers was explained, This important principle should: be under- etood by the teacher, and a simple method of presenting it to the class was shown. In dealing with the subject of 'Nature Study," Miss Grace Walker showed how it'might be correlated with art, composition, construction work, liter- ature and music. She also showed as a model of nature study book that she uses with ber own classes. Her paper was listened to with a great deal of interest, Ia apaper that showed careful pre. aeration and contained many splendid suggestions, Miss Olive Cooper dealt with the subject of "Household Man, agement in Public Schools," A great deal -of what is outlined in the Course of Study can, be taught with a small amount of equipment: The following were suggested as being suitable sub- jects for lessons; Cream soups, veget- ables, water, cooking of eggs. meat, Canadian fruits, cereals, caring for an invalid and'cleaning. She pointed out that the cultural and educational value of sewing is greater than its practical value. An exhibition of some excellent work done by her class was .hewn, Mr.H. t•}. Marlyn then gave a spten- did address on "The Teacher's Rela tion to the Play -life of Children." He classified the main theories regard- ing play as follows: let—The eurplus energy theory that children must play because they most work off their sup. erfiuous energy; 2uti—The preparatiou for -life theory that play ie a means of preparing for future responsibilities; 3rd --The recreation theory that play is resorted to as a meats pf recupera- tion from weariness; 4th—The recapit- ulation theory that ialay is only the remnants of earlier activities in the race. Not anyone of these theories is adequate, however. Play is a univ- ersal instinct and children engage in it because of pure pleasure. The first eix year's of a child's life was describ- ed as the imitative period when his plays aro largely a repaction of the oc- cupation of hie elders; from six to thir- teen or fourteen as the aindividualistic period of competition when be Gaya "I can run taster than you," ete; and from ttilarteep pq, as the period of co• operation when be indulges mostly to games involving team play. Teachers have three imperative dt}tiee to per- , form, viz; To encograge philclrer► to play; to direct their play; to supervise their games, He expressed the hope that the teachers would begin at once to organize games for recess and noon hour, selecting those that can be play- ed with present e,iluipmebt, Mr. A. 13. Musgrove, . p. P., for North Huron, on being called on for a few words, congratulated the teachers on the success of their entertainment and on the foot that their profession is beginning to be acknowledged as .it should be, He pointed out that teach- ers have a spacial duty to perforin at this time in organizing the brain pow er and intellects of Canada. Mr. Mus. grove's remarks wore heard with plea, sure. The Association then adjourned un. til l,15tam, Afternoott Sisseton On being asked by Dr. Field for an expression of opinion on the question of holding the promotion examinations in Juno instead of Easter, a rrtajat'ity of the teachers voted in favor of the change, Mr. Shilliaglaw presented the rel. port of this Resolution Committee, Which was adopted, and was as fel. lows; Itestilvedt 1.
