Teachers' Convention. Eighteen of the local teachers met in the Exeter Public School according to notice. Minutes of previou smeeting were read and adopted. Mr. Bloomfield d.ealt with, 'As ships becalmed at Eve' as follows: (1) a short story of the life of the author s inecessary for the understanding of the poem. Stress should be laid on the fact that Clough drifted from the pious teaching of Dr. Arnold to agnosticism; (2) the class should paraphrase the poem; (3) the lesson should. be read to fully bring out the points of the sinsile; (I) a min- ute study of the words and phrases. Miss jeckell introduced the subject "Psychology of Number" showing what number is, what number is not, and the processes of the mind in form- ing the concept. Mr. Boyd followed, applying this theory to the teaching of numbers. He showed that the unity must be dealt with iii each case, viz. if 2 is taught, the natural step -would be to Introduce 2-2's to make the unity 4, then 2-4's to make the unity 8, etc. In this way the old method of dealing with consecutive numbers was exploded. The third item on the program was the reading of the resolution passed by the O.E.A. last April by Mr. Boyd. Mr. Trott, an Ontario teacher who has spent some time in Australia, was introduc- ed to the convention. -He explained the Australian educaional system showing (1) that the placing and pay- ing of teachers are in the hands of an Educational Commission; (2) that young teachers, teach under super- vision for a time, then they are given a school of the lowest grade. These teachers are promoted according to their abilities and success in teaching; (3) that the lowest salary is $540 per year. The following officers were elected: President, Mr.' .Bloomfield; Secretary, P. Gardiner; Committee Misses bus and Ball, Mr. Creech.
