Mr. Tom, I. P. S., conducted devo-
tional exercises.
The minutes of the last session at
Exeter were read and ou motion of P.
Gowans and G. Howard were adopted.
The president appointed the follow -
mg committees, viz : Resolution com-
mittee, Messrs. Gowans, Morrish, A.

AFTERNOON.
The Association met at 1.45 p. na,
The minutes of the forenoon session
were read, and on motion of W. H.
Johnston, were adopted. ,
On motion of B. I. Strang, seconded
by P. Gowans, the reports of the dele-
gates were received and the treasurer
ordered to pay their expenses.
J, S. Delgaty then discussed the
advisability of introducing the Bible
in the public schools as a text book be-
cause teachers were not all competent,
to teach it, and because of the fad
that public schools are made up of all
denominations. But he strongly ad-
vocated the teaching of the truths and
princheals of the Bible. The Bible
should be read and used in devotion as
at present provided, but be objected
to it being used as a text book. Mr.
Strang said that he even hesitated to
explain difficult passages in the morn-
ing reading for fear some one might
say that he was expounding it to suit
his own view, which might be ob-
jectionable to some. Mr, Tom thought
the revised version should be used
generally, as the language in that ver-
sion is the language of the day. Mr.
IMatheson was in favor of the use of
the Bible., and speaks very strongly in
favor of it. Mr. Holland thought the
sacredness of the Bible` and its teach-
ings should be kept, before the pupils
as the foundation of all morals, but
would not say that the Bible should be
used as a text book. On la -lotion of
Mr. Tom, seconded by Mr. Johnston,
the resolution of the O. E. A. as op-
posed to the introduction of the Bible
as a text book, was adopted.
j. Elgin Tom, I. P. S., was then
called upon to discuss"Primary Work"
Mr. Toni strongly advocated print in-
stead of script in teaching reading.
Spelling should be taken at the seats
not in the class • the writing was bad
enough, but spelling in the clasewoulcl
not improve it. The subject was fur-
ther discussed by C. A. Tebbutt and J.
S. Delgaty.
olgaotyn.
Miss
sitt
then took up the sub-
ject of "Nature Study and a School
Cabinet," Nature study slaould begin
with the first book. Study of tbe for-
mation of buds, shapes of trees, en-
folding of leaves, arrangements in the
twigs, stones, shells, germination of
seeds, time of coming of birds, would
form splendid material, and if used in
composition would aid to language,
and if used properly this work would
aid in every study. Every contact
with nature strengthens the ideal.
W. H. Johnston then proceeded to
discuss the subject of the present Pub-
lic School History being objectionable
on account of the difficalt language as
declared by the O. E. A. Mr. John-
ston wentl fully into the matter
and made comparisons between tbe
language of the present history and
others, such as that of Collier. Mr.
Delgaty objected to the mode of para-
graphing used in the present history.
tle suggested the outlining the reign
by the teacher,
The Association then took up the
resolution limiting tbe age of admitt-
ing teachers to the profession to twen-
ty one -years. The subject was dis-
cussed to it late hone by Messrs, Hol-
man, Strang, Torn and others, but was
finally referred to the resolution com-
mittee, The time for adjournment

one of the best at home entertata-
merits the teachers of West Huron

; lond in their praises of the kindly re.
option and exoellent entertairoxtent
I given them by the teachers of Gode-
rich and citizens of the County Town.
In the evening a very successful at
home was held in the assembly room
of the Collegiate Institute, at which
large number of teachers arka their
friends asserxibled, 3. H. Tigett,presi-
dent, of the Association. presided, and
delie ered an excellent address on "Oo-
operation of Home and School," which
was well received. Marty excellent
thoughts were contained in the paper.
In addition to the above an excellent
musical progvain was rendered. Last
but nob least came the excellent re-
freshments of lemonade and light
cake. so liberelly fernishod by the
teachers of Goderich and thee:. friends,

The Association met at 0.30 A • U.
Mr.• Tigert presiding, Mr. H. I,
kstrarig• couduoted the opening exer-
cises. Mr. Tom then called the roll,
and uinetv-two teaceers anewered to
their names as being present at yes-
terday's meeting. The minutes of
Thursday afternoon and evening
sessioes were read and approved.
Miss S. J. Bell then very ably dis-
cussed "glass Methods in Arithmetic."
This proved an excellent paper and
showed that Miss Bell had given
much thought and care to its pre.
paration. Use concrete objects to
illustrate problems to junior classes,
analyze difficult problems in the class
asking the teachers to assist. The
president and Messrs. Tom,
Moore and Strang briefly discussed
the paper and highly complimented
Miss Bell on the excellent manner in
which she had treated the subject.
H. I. Strang, B. A., head master of
Goderich Collegiate Institute, then
took op "Difficulties in Analysis and
Parsing," and unravelled many
knotty difficulties submitted by the
teachers.
The election of officers was than

Clarke, St. Helens; sec-treas., G. H.

Anderson, O. A. Tebbutt, Miss Shar-
man, Miss Gordon,,Mr. Howard, Robt.
Stelck. •
Miss .A.ntfie Clarke was then called
upon to discuss "Class Methods in
reading." It would be advisable to
teach children how to place the, lips
and tongue in shaping words. The
print was preferable to script. Would
not stick too closely to one method
but suit the method to the child's
ability to grasp the words and sounds.
The child should he encouraged to do
considerable work in the use of dic-
tionary, poor readers to have much
practice but none should be neglected;
low voiced reading should be dis-
couraged and give much prominence
to correct articulation ; the pronounc-
ing of the words should be carefully
attended to as to its true pronuncia-
tion, Miss Clarke's paper proved an
excellent one and was enthusiastically
received. •
On motion of Mr. Howard, seconded
by Mr. Holland, the Association ad-
journed to meet at 1.30 p. M.

The Association met at 1.45. The
minutes of the fo,noon session were
read and adopted. The. resolutions of
the 0. E. A. were then taken up by
Geo.S. Howarchwho dealt with resolu-
tion No. 17, asking that the grammar
on the entrance examipations he so
modified as to have less technical
work.
Mr. Gowans then took up the topic
of "Ventilation and Blackboards."
Mr. Gowans pointed out the attention
paid to ventilating barus and stables
while no attention was paid to Yen -
Waning the homes and school houses,
the teacher and inspector should as-
sist the trustees in carrying out a
good system of ventilation, school
hones ;should be Wit in keeping
with the progress of the time, for the
sake of health for the children und
teacher the ventilation should be com-
plete. Mr. Gowans gave illustrations
of the proper method of ventilation
and also spoke on the question of
blackboards, recommending hyloplate.
Moved by Mr. Strang, seconded by
Mr. Holman: That in the opinion of
this Association the age limit for 3rd
class be raised to 19, and the duration
to 51years, but that sucb. a certificate
