Ellis Heade W. eleuron Association Meet in Goderich The forty-ninth annual convention t)f West Huron Teachers was held at Codeeich, October lith an& 15th. Ono ,hundred and thirty -eve teach- ers were present, Inspector Tom, the president, occupied the chair. Rev. Mr. Clarke, of North Setreet 'United Church, conducted the open- ing PXOreises, aim minutes of last year's final seeeion were read and confirmed. Owing to the removal of Auditor, Mr, 14. Cranson from the inspeetorate Mr. M. C. Milliken was appointed. The first paper was taken by Miss Ella Sowberry, of Westfield, on "Time Table Economy For Rural Schools." ,A well arranged and care- fully followed time table proves a great time saver for the buy tear.h. or. Combining, classoo, where at all possible, and especially .the Junior and Senior sections of the same grades economizes time. Again in rural schools arranging the subjects in such 0 way that the Junior classes are busy while the thaeher'e, assist- ance is being given to the Senior pup- ils and vice verse. Inspector Tom etressed the combining of classes for certain subjects. Miss Grace Lochart, of S. S. 12 West Wawano h, introduced the subject of "I !,:i2k Board Work." This should be a model of neatnese, not only because it tells for the teach- er, but serves as an example to the Pupils. "Like teacher, like pupils." Borders and decorative designs should be on the blackboard and these changed as the seasons come and go. Review work, oatline of maps, spelling lessons, etc., should be placed on the blackboard. Fall boards tell for a busy teacher. All writing placed thereon should show correctly formed letters with all the "i's" dot - td, "t's" crossed, etc. The paper was well received. Inspector Tom threw out some splendid hints regarding the full solu- tions of problems in arithmetic, in- stead of a collection of meaningless figures. The subject of spelling for second classes was next taken by Mise M. Ellis, of Hensall. This subject should be built upon the "Phonic" method and certain rules should be given as are to be found in the text book. Frequent views of words already learned should be taken and in every instance the pupila should be able to pronounce and know the meaning of the words before at- tempting to spell them. Errors should be , kept by the pupils and these should be reviewed frequently. Spelling matches, both oral and written, creates a. desire to excel. The paper was full of interest and profit. The matter of the teachers' lib- rary, which is at present in Exeter school, was then discussed. These books, though valuable to the teachers, are not being read. To make it more convenient for the teachers to get them it was decided to leave them in lots at each nublic library in the inspectorate and have them moved in cycle order front tine to time. The fee for joining the association was lowered from fil'ty cents to twenty-five cents end teach.er was given a reduction of fifty cents on all "Teachers' lalagazinee" sub- scribed for, no one to receive more than two reductions to the amount of one dollar. Mr, George Mawson, of Exeter, then discussed the changes in the 1926 Course of Study and showed by comptuison with the old, that, in some instances the amount of work is materially lessemed in eertain grades, while in others more has been added end especially is this noticeable in tin supplemental read- ing.. Each subject on the course was taken and thealterationseeteted, The entrance examination papers of 1926 were discused by -the par- ties who examined the same and sug, gpstions were thrown out wharehy iehprovements might, be made, in the answees, both as to qualltY and Method. Mr. J. Fe Tom took arith• metic aed spelling, and Mr, 0, S. Howard, grammar, history, and Mee. ature, If all 'teachers followed the suggestions given, next erne8 pap, ors will be easier marked. Aftemoon Session The minutes of the morning session woe read and confirmed. Inspector Tom spoke on "Reports." He strongly urged, as in Ammo.' years, the necessity of teachers beieg prompt and accurate with all reports to hint, as he has to be with ale to the departfen 1. Me. 0. W. Hoffeed, M. A., oe Lori- dOn Hormel, an old Huron eby, took nle the subject "The Dalton Plan of Teaching" Introduced by Mies Hoke Pankhurst, of Dalton, Mass,, and has so increased in favor that et is now being used in America and EOM°.

Mr. McKay, of Hensel!, took lie chair during the Round Taele Con- ference and led in diseuseing the mer- it and defeat; of' our preeept text bootee. An interesting 3 een,i )/1 WAS given 00 our present speller. Senn eondienned it while others were loud in its praise, lilies 'Attie Guenther introduced tee subject of the use of the Watery Readers with third classee. These should be road in class and the sub- ject matter used as material for com- poeition. On Thursday evening the temiters were entertained at a banquet given by the Home and &hoot Club in North Street United Church. This indeed, was a treat to the teaehers and broke the monotony of Ht . day sessions. Toasts were propoe.d to "Our Country," "The Superannuated Teachers," ntio Local Clergy" end "The School and Home Club.' The music, vocal and instrumental, was furniehed by local talent and the ad- dresses given were of a high order. Mr. J. E. Tom acted as toast master. Friday Forenoon The opening exercises were taken by Mr. MacKay. After reading of the minutes of the previous sesison, the election of officers followed re:- Rutting as follows: President, Miss M. A. Ellie, Hensall; Vice-Preeident, Mr. P. B. Mogat, Dashwood; See'y- Treas., G. S. Howard, Exeter; Mist L. McCullough, Winchelsea; Auditors Mr.- D. McRae, Miss A. Geiser; resolu- tion committee, Messes, W. McKay, 0. ;'vui 11 Stoma -totem, Metiees V. Watson, M. Horton and le. Wig- gins; Delegates to 0. E. A., Mr. P. 13. Moffat. The auditors' report Awed a good balance to the credit of the association. Mies Grace Hamelton, of Goderich, gave a paper on Primary Reading. In this the phonic method should be used and frequent drills in word and sentence building taken from the tablets and on the black board. Miss Lulu Fulton, of Exeter, fol- lowed with "Seatrvork for Primary Pupils." She suggested frequent changes of work and a new device each day. The building of pictures and work in numbers iurnishes splendid material. . Miss Margaret Grieve, of S. S. No, 7, Stanley, took Arithmetic for the same grade. She would use zoncrate material such as buttons, blocks, tooth picks, etc., to teach number work. The pupils should use the B 13 and daily drills, as reviews should be taken. Flashecards of numbers as: 3x3—?, 3-1—?, 2x2—?, 6 &rifl- ed by prove helpful, l'he sub- ject was further discussed by Inepec- tor Tom who spoke of some methods —good and poor—seen in hie tours of inspection. Mr. Hofferd, M.A., took his second subject "The New Achievement Tests." In this he showed the differ- ence of marking papers. Some tea- chers mark too lenietly, while others es too severely. Teachshould not guess. This system requires great care in marking aud by it the scoring or marking is easily and quickly done. The R. W. S. formula is 116- ually appliedin scoring. The speak- er applied the tests as follows: 1. Re• call Type, (a) Bleed Answer Test; (b) Completion Test; (c) Enumera- tion Test. 2, Recognition Type (a) True and False Test; (b) Multiple Choice Test; (c) Association Test; (d) Best Answer Test. Teachers de- siring full description of this topic will nd it fully -discussed In the Janu- ary, February and March numbee8 of the, School, 1926.

If good loamy soil cannot be obtained quite satisfactory results may - be obtained froin coarse sand. A soil that does not bake is desir- able. For hyacinths, -tulips and daf- fodils pails of five or six inch pots are most satisfactory. Three tulip and daffodil bulbs do well in a five er 0177. ineh pot, and one or more hyacinth bulbs per pot are used. de- pending on the eize of the pot. When Planted in pans six or more tulip bulbs are used. Provide drainage for pot by putting. 0 piece or pieces et. broken pot„ coal clinkers, or charcoal in the bottom, fill the pot with soil and shake it down by knockin,7 the pot against something. Do not press down the sell to accomplish this, as it will be too firm and tho bulb will lift out when it begins to root.. After jarring the soil, place the bulb on the O surface and press down until the up- - per side of the bulb is level with the surface, then make the soil firm ar- ound the bulb with the lingers to prevent it lifting. After planting, there should be not less than three I fourths of an inch space between the surface of the soil and the top cf • the pot, as, if there is less, it will be difficult to give enough water. The pots shonld now • be put in a cool . part of tho. cellar, but where the soil W111 not he frozen. Water thoroughly and see that the soil is kept moist I until the bulbs are well rooted, which will be in six weeks or more, and 00- 0 11 they are forced. If the soil be- comes dry the roots will be injured and they will not force well. Frees- ias and Chinese Sacred Lily do net require to be well rooted before forc- ing. One should not try to force 1 tulips before January even though 1 they show growth above the soil, as, 11 even if well rooted, they wlll not force satisfactorily before this, e Some good, inexpensive varieties . for forcing are: - 1 Hyacinths—Roman, Gigantea, Her- nia, La Grandesse, Enchantress, Gen- : oral Pelissier, King of the Blues. 1 Narcissus—Paper White, Prencepe, Golden Spur, Emperor, Sir Watkins, Lucifer, King Alfred, Madame de Graaff, Madame Plentp.

"One other proportion should be given here, as It is a proportion more dependent upon muscular condition and proper weight than upon anato- mical make -p. "A tape -line drawn around the chest, close under the armpits, with the chest expanded to its fullest ca- pocitY, should measure about five or sttr inches more than the tape -line pulled tightly around the abdomen, nest above the highest line of the hips, with the abdomen aoutracted to its smallest capacity.

A patient of mine who had been forced to in- activity by a three months' illness, got up from her bed with preponder- ance in favor of abdominal measure- ment of six inches. After three months of after cure, eonsisting of gradually becreasing exercise, chest and abdominal measurements were the same. At both thnee the body weight was perfect, It took'another year of consistent exercise to add the favor of three inches to the chest measurement, During this time, a little over a year, the patient, from being a weak, easily tired convales- cent, returned to a vigorous muscular condition, with exae•se vitality, "In allowing for variations of re.- cial type ht bodily proportions, the same allommee must be made for the racial normal le weight.

C., Co.oper• ates With Other Observatories in This Work That the stars differ 'ft their !won1 brightness is self-evident. A thougluful person might 1411 0114' that thie is due either to .1 difference in their - pow me or to their • being eituated at different die -1 tames from 11A. As 70 matter of feet both are contributory causee and it is only when we know the dietance of a particular star that WI' can have an idea of its real lum- inosity. . The distances of the iiemeer :dere are determined by a proceee of tri- angulation somewhat similar to tint whigh the surveyor uses to obtain the distant, of an inaeceeeible mountain peak. Naturally, the base line most be enormously longer than any used upon the earth and the one that bests serves the Pur - 900e is the diameter of theearth-s orbit about the sun. The small rel- ative ehiftings in the positions of the stars as photographed front each end of this 186,000,000411110 base give us data from which to compute their distances. Through the co-operation of half a dozen observatories in Europe and America the distances of several hundred of the nearer stare had been determined by this triangula- tion rnethod before the war and this number has been materially in- creased since. Knowing, there their distances and their apparent bright- ness, their real or absolute luminos- ities are easily computed. It has been found that there is a great dis- parity amongst them, probably a million -fold being not an extreme main. Our own star, the elm, 145 0 100. times brighter than some that are reached by our telescopes, is neverethlese outshone 10,000 -fold by others which are designated "giant" stars. An examination of the spectre or analysed light of these stars of different real luminosities revealed peculiarities by which it was possi- ble to reverse the process and pre- dict the corresponding real bright- ness. That is to say, if we were to secure the spectrum of a star that was unknown we could, from these tell-tale peculiarities, determine the absolute brightness of that particu- lar star. It es then a simple cake- lation to find out how far away a star of such known brightness must be to appear of the brightness we see it in the sky. It is in the search for these tell- tale peculiarities in the spectrum that the Dominion Astrophysical Ob- servatory, Department of the Inter- ior, at Victoria, British Colunibia, has taken a leading part among the observatories of the world. Many new lines in the spectrum have been found which are specially sensitive in this regard and the added mater- ial has greatly improved the accur- acy of the method. A list of over 1,100 stars the distances of which have been thus determined has been issued as a publication of the ob- servatory. The distances cannot be quoted in miles but a popular standard of measurement is the "light-year" whith is simply the distance light will travel in a year at its rate of 186,000 miles per second. At this rate light reaches us from the sun in eight and one-third minutes yet the distance of the nearest of the fixed stars is such that light requires :four and one-half years to traverae the distance and consequently WO :lay it is 4 ert light-years &stunt. Another relatively close star is Sir- ius, the bright star of the winter skies, distant 9 light-years. This investigation places Arcturus and Polaris, stars used a great cleat by surveyors, at distances of 41 and 406 light-years respectively, whilst the double star Beta Cygni, at the foot of the Northern Cross, is near- ly 1,100 light-years distant. More- over it is found that the state do not extend to equal distanees .41 all directions; they extend to inuelt greater distances in the direction of the Milky Way than they do at right angles to that plane, The stele tar universe is thus not spherical but rather (flee -like in form with the long diameter about ten timee tho shorter. The main value of such 0050110(5- e0 is in tide determination of the form and structure of the universe —the problem tome& the solution of which practically all .tistronomieal investigation tends, When results for the distances of stars hao to he based upon triangulation methods alone IVO could reach out to a limit- ed distance only.

The newer method adopted at and enlarged upon at Victor!' has the :decided advantage that it ie usuble no matter how infinitely remote the star may be, provided only it is bright enough for its spectrum to be secured. The great light gathering power of modern telescopes makes it possible to secure the spectra of extremely faint stars. • A by-product of the work has been the aid rendered the physicist in his study of the atom. When the astronomer found that certain spec- tral lines were particularly intenee in intrinsically bright stars the phy- sicist was. led to seek the reason fpr the same and the facts marshalled by the astronomer from the high temperature stars have aided mater- ially in elucidating the structur,. of the atom.
