see in thought all he undertakes to
convey in audible reading. The child
should feel as well as see the thought.
Most failare in reading is owing to a
failure in We. Teachers should try
to implant the desire to read. The
most difficult part of the teacher is to
adopt a good plan of correotion and
criticism, mechanical teaching of in-
flection will bring failure, get the
motive or meaning and inflection will
take care of itself, awaken the
imagination and the emotional quality
will be the result. The difficulties in
the way of the pupil need careful at-
tention. Too much attention is de-
voted to words not enough to the
thought. Reading is a thinking pro-
cess. It is often begun too soon tis
the word form is too soon expected to
take the place of thought getting.
Thought consciousness is the main
thought to be attained and nut the
formal word, following too closely the
latter method injuries the former.
Words are mere instruments of
thought and should never be allowed
to interfere with thoughts grasp
devalopnient. Use the word method
for 5 or 10 methods before introducing
the phonic. Read to the pupils to
develop thought. Thought conscious-
ness should be the object of teaching
reading was the message Mr. Mc•
Oulcheon very strongly impressed in
hie able address.
The subject was further discussed by
several of the teachers. Miss Messer
of Bluevale,gave an excellent paper on
the important subject, "The Rural
Problem. "Rural School education
lacked being helpful in making rural
life attractive. A knowledge of
Agriculture would help to form a co-
partnership between the school and
the farm. Teach children to love and
appreciate the rural beauty about
them it will bring fathers and motbei a
back to the school again iu their
home interest for the children's work.
School houses and grounds are not in
keeping with their needs. Barreness
of social life is the cause of loss of
rural population. Co-operation of the
people in social clubs are of great
benefit. From poultry clubs, pro-
gress clubs, library clubs all have
their benefical results. Make social
centres of the school houses. get the
people together and make the school
ground the beauty spot of the neigh-
borhood. Have field days for rural
echoole.
Mr Posliff thought the teacher
should bo an important factor in the
rife of every school section. He
strongly approved of the idea of a
"Field. Day" in every school. -Mr.
Bouck and Dr. Field further discussed
this paper.
The Association then aejourned to
the Public' School -when Mise Me -
Pherson and Miss Buchanan gave
excellent lessons to classes, the former
on "Participles and Gerunds," the
latter Junior Class work.
The Association then adjourned to
meet at 9 Friday morning.
THURSDAY J3 VENIN(k
An excellent entertainment was
given in the Town Hall. W. Gordon
Graig, of Toronto, gave his celebrated
presentation of "Macbeth"&which -was
very highly appreciated. J. M. Mc-
Outcheon, B. A, gave an excellent
and instructive address on "The Trend
of Education" and an excellent pro-
gram of solos and instrumental mucic
was also rendered by Misses Jones
and Sinclair, Mrs. Howson and F. H.
Gilroy. Mr. Shiilingiaw.ocoupied the
chair and performed the duties very
acceptably.

Geo, 13 Jefferson was caned of and
read an excellent paper on "Geogra-
phy by observation," Geography
taught by memorizing a lot of discon-
nected lames teed facts was of little
use, Make every possible use of out

Many of the teachers took part in
the discussion of this interesting and
ins`ructive paper. Next item on the
program was the President's address.
Mr. Sbillinglaw took for his eubjsct
"Rural Depopulation. Thio subject
having been very fully discussed in
previous papers Mr, Shillinglaw cur-
tailed hie remarks. Depopulation is
not confined to the poorer districts,
but some of the richer and better rur-
al communities afforded the best ex-
amples of this so-called evil. Some
of the causes leading to the state of
affairs were the i: d "pendence of
youug men and wonen; a desire to do
something for themselves; Geeing
other boys from the city spending
their own money, tattlers don't often
give boys any direct interest in the
farm or its proceeds. Some farmers
dont want their boys to stay on the
farm, itis cheaper to give him an
education. Glowing newspaper news
as to the great successes of those
who migrate and the too often repres-
sion of the news of those who fail,
The education department seemed
very desirous of remedying these
things and hence' the encouraging of
teaching Agriculture and teaching
teachers at the 0. A. 0. bat the ap-
pointment of a supervisor in each dis-
trict was a better method. In further
discussion of this subject Messrs.
Taompson and Horton thought the
greatcause was the movement,of our
people to the West.
"Drawing" by Miss Myrtle Spence
was the next on the program. Mies
Spence went fully into the topic giv-
ing her methods and exhibited many
excellent specimens of charcoal shad-
ing work and book -cover designing.
The committie to receive funds of
the Patriotic contribution were named
as follows* :— Misses Reynolds and
Ashton, Messrs. Bryans and Hender-
son.
H. E. Ricker, M. A., Principal or
Wingham High School was called on
and discussed "Heredity in Plants and
Animate." Great importanceat taches
to invironment but in plaute and an-
imals heredity was of first import
ance. This paper was of a very high
order and the rifest of heredity in
animals and the human family was
thoroughly gone into as to peculiari-
ties, appearances, nature, intelligence
and every other quality. A striking
illustration was drawn of the biologi-
cal effect of wars on the human fam-
ily was proved in past wars. The
same Iaws of development were illust-
rated by reference to plant life.
Association then adjourned to meet
at 1 p. m.

ANTWERP'S CAPTURE
DUE TO SPIES' WORK
Traitors in the Forts Responsible For
the Capture by the Germans—
Five Were Shot
Antwerp is now under German
government. Baron Von der Schutz
has been appointed Military Governor,
It is reported that a war tax of no
less than $100,000,000 is to be levied
on the city.
Pour German officers suddenly ap-
peared before the Hotel de Ville, at
Antwerp, at noon on Friday, and de-
manded the ° surrender of the town.
Ater a short consultation this was
agreed to, and the Germans mitered
Antwerp through the gates In the
roads from Turabout and Welryck,
They entered an almost empty city
with their bands playing at about 4
o'clock Friday afternoon. The first
body of infantry with machine guns
arrived at the Place de Moir, where
the Royal Palace is situated, and the
troops at once occupied all the public
buildings as barracks, .
The city had been heavily bone -
beaded for several days and lnuclt
damage was alone to the buildings.'
• British 'Force Cut Off
A British• marine brigade and tae
naval brigades, with heavy naval guns,
were sent by the British Government
to participate In the defonee of Ant-
werp during the last week of the at-
tack. 'While retreating, after the
evacuation of the city, one of the naval
brigades was cut off by the Germans,
and thereupon entered Dutch territory,
were 2,000 .men laid down their arms.
The rest of the brigade has returned
to England. Pruni many of them it
vitas leaned that the commander of
one of the- forts was a Gorman 0173'.
The Belgians shot itim and four of
leis staff officers. The marines say
that the work ,of dofcneo was greatly
liarnpered by spies, who were every-
where. The escape of the marines
considered a miracle.
The Germans aro now moving on

Despatches from Vienna and Petro-
grad iudicat3 that the Austrian army
at Przenayel, so often reported 004
rounded, hopelessly 'outclassed and on
the verge of surrender, has with the
.aid of reinforcements turned on the
Russians and forced them to retreat:
A despatch from Rome says that
the Russians have abandoned the
siege of Przemysl, in Austrian Galicia,
in order to put themselves in a stra-
tegical position to meet the Austro-
German army.
A despatch from Petrograd states
that on 'l. Russian Poland -East
Prussia front, nee tho centre of the
long line, the Russians have driven
the Germans out of Vloclawelt, cnly
35 miles ::7uth-east of the Prussian
frontier fortress of Thorn, and have
fortified themselves within a few
miles of Thorn itself. Since the Ger-
man extreme left is 'defending en-
trenched pose -ions not far from Lyck,
over 150 miles east of Thorn, while
the centre, under Gen. von Hinden-
burg, is operating close to Warsaw,
more than 100 miles east of the sane
iilace, it is said that the German
left already has been partly enveloped
.and cut off from the main body.
The evident plan of the Russians
is to drive a huge wedge into the
German line at Thorn.
The Russian Ministry announces
that Russia, has conquer .d ane oc-
cupied 49,000 squaremiles of Austrian
territory, while successfully Gushing
her vast offensive operations against
the German provinces of East Prus-
sia, Posen and Silesia. In two months
of campaigning the Russians have
taken possession, they say, of all the
crown land of Bukowi a, seven -eighths
of Galicia and one-fifth of Hungary.

SHOT FELLOW SOLDIER
IMornber of Welland Canal Guard
Killed St. Catharines Youth
Private Frank Hartley of the 19th
Regiment faces a charge of murder
at St. Catharines as a result of the
shooting of Private Theodore Bur-
goyne, a fellow member of the same
regiment which was acting as guard
along the Welland Canal Hartley
claims to be an Engishman but had
been living in the United States; his
victim was a nephew of Alderman
Burgoyne of St. Catharines, proprietor
of The St. Catharines Daily Standard,
and was employed in the St. Cathar-
Ines branch of the Bank of Toronto.
The tragedy took place just outside
the lock shanty at lock 9, near Meta
ritton.
That Hartley, anter the shooting,
admitted kiliirg 131 rgoyne, and stated
that he "got the wrong one," was
evidence given by Chief of Police
Greene at the inquest. The "other
one" apparently was Sergt. Burgoyne,
brother of the victim, who a few
moments previous to the shooting had
sent' Hartley to his tent because he
answered the roll call late and was
Improperly dressed.
According to the evidence of several
eyewitnesses, Hartley later left the
tent, complaining. of Sergt. Bur-
goyne's treatment of him, and saying
that the non-com. was net treating
hien right. The deceased, "Teddy"
Burgoyne, overhearing the remarks of
Hartley, denied that his brother bad
a pick, on him. Next came a boast
from the prisoner that he was an
Englishman and he could lick any-
body on the canal. "Teddy" replied
that he was a Canadian and that he
Was proud of it. "I'll shoot you," re-
marked Hartley to the deceased, to
which Burgoyne, drawing himself up
to. "attention," with his hands in the
pockets of the sweater coat which
he wore, said: "Shoot."
Hartley fired immediately, the bul-
let entering Burgoyne's eye and caus-
ing death in seven minutes. The
murderer was at once overpowered
.and held for the police,
