Mr. W. H. Johnston was then intro-
duced and gave a report' of the work done
at the late Provincial Teas:bare' Associa,
tion. He experienced much benefit from
his attend- nos, and said that there were
hopeful -signs of a closer relationship be-
tween the public sehool teachers and the
inspectors.
On motion of G. W. Holtnan, 'seconded
by G. Shepard, Mr.; Johnston received
the thanks of the Assooietion, and his ex-
penses were ordered to'be paid.
Mr. Robt Park 'then tdok up "Public.
School Text Books," confining his remake's
to a condemnation' of ttlica---publia-noho;
history and geography, both of which le
found after a fair .trial to be utterly un-
suitable for the purposes for ehi, h they
were intended. • The geography contained
a mass of advice to the teacher that the
pupils should not be onmpelled to pay for.
In the history the language .was not suit.
able and it was necessary to make a litera-
ture lesson out of eaoh paragraph before
the pupils could comprebena its Meaning,
Mr. R. E. Brown thought the geography
oontained too much for the 'prescribed
course mnd thought it might' be reduced
one half. •
Mr. H. I. Strang bad pronounced hie
opinion previonsly that the history was not
suitable text book and was of the same
mind lat. He had examined the geography
from a public school 'testohers' standpoint
at well as lie could, and was fully satisfied
that it was not the book that was required.
Mr. R. It. Ross agreed with what had
been said in condemnation ofboth books.
• Mr. G. W. Holman thought it was idle
to talk here unless the•AesOciation took
prompt and vigorous action, and again by
resolution place on reeoid its entire disap-
proval of beth books. Re would recoca-
mend. that bothbooks be revised and all
between the covers in each of them left
put. • .
Mr. G. Tom thought the thief value of
the history was the series of questions at
the end of each:chapter.
Mr. 5 J. Latta thought both books' de-
served it fair trial before condemnation was
passed, • ,
Mr. R. Beacham was not experienced
but he thought, the geography superior to
the old ohe in some respects, but its maps
were deficient both to number and execu-
tion. Ee condemned the history. •
Thia discession proved very lively and
interesting but it was one.sicled,nearly all
the teachers speaking atronely against, the
two books in question. There • is every
reason for this for the teachers as it whole
think that there is too mnah imposition
praotioed upon the public and themselves;
by the continual changing of text boOks,
The Association then adjourned to meet at

were read and adopted.
The first subjeot called for discussioti
was "Type Questions in Arithmetio,"

take it up, was introduced by G. W. Hot -
may, who said that in a great many In.
etances too rancli time was ooneutned in
