small boys and girls she illustrated

Needless to say ie was delightfully
done. Everybody was.intercated.
Inspector Tom spoke 'on heating
and ventilation and 'cleared up many
points that needed explanation. Fle
advised each teacher to study the
running of the furnace. He gave
many good hints aloin the care of
libraries, keeping of registers and
inspect'oa'of outbuildings.
Dr. Morgan, pr'ncipal of 1119 Nor-
th -tat school, Hamilton, gave a fire; ad-
dress on composition for junior clas-
ses: We should remember that corn -
position is the progress of expression
and there ore we should place em-
phasis. on freedom of express on in
elementary corposit'on, 'Mode o"ex-
press'ng thoughts should bo gradu-
ally imposed Help :11 this direction

etc. Ile would use Fairy tales to
foster the imagination of the child
Moral stories to elevate, good liter-
ary stories to help the child's voc-
abulary elle. Stories should be suit-
able to the season. The teacher
should know his story: well, both 'the
intellectual and 1110 moral sides of
the 'story, in order to be' able to
tell it vii. He would use pictures
10 draw out the child's imagination
but he would be careful to choose
his .picture with the thought of hav-
ing unity., or one. that would teach a
moral lesson, etc.
Miss C'onsitt in the;President's ad-
dress on Child Life very nicely told
us how we can elevate the character
ot the children, 'teaching them pore
sonar cleanliness, health rules, that
real things only are beautiful and to
develop in them a love for the'heauti-
ful in nature and pictures.
Mr. Ross in a splendid paper dis-
cussed the teaching of history for
fourth class.He held that the im-
portant thing in teaching history
wasn't just the impart:ng of infor-
mation but in arousing interest in
the great s u b j cc t.: The teacher
should be thorouwh!y prepared to
teach the lesson. He should be full
of his subject, Id ,junior fourth he
would teach from the, begins ng of
British history up "to the Tudor
Period, and for both fourths only the
prominent events, 'ro impress' his.
work he would have rapid and fre-
quent reviews. IIe would make good
use of maps and teach dates thor-
oughly.' He considered history one
of the most important subjests be-
cause we can train children through
it better for good citizenship than
we can through the teaching of any
other subject. He gives it an impor-
tant position on his table,
Inspector Tont spoke on school
work, and gave the teachers many
good thoughts along the line of spell'
ng. IIe wouldn't have the pupils
write spellings
ontheir
slates • in
class but he would have 1115111 write
them in their beats. He laid great
stress on ,having the pupils pro-
nounce the words and read the words
in the speller. The children should
be taught, that nouns end in cis, us,
etc., and adjectives in cat and ons,
that ize is the: suffix used in form-
ing verbs
orming;verbs from other words, while.
ise is the end'ng of words with a•
prefx: The whole talk was hill of
instruction,
The discussion was continued by W.
ILo hn: J son and, Dr. Morgan.
Miss Murray introduced a ' class
who gave us a sample of reading,
The reading wee'e •really well done and
her teaching of a literature lesson
was original. Miss Murray to',d her
class a story of .Cardinal Newman
last evening and- then taught theles
son. "Lead Kindly Light" without fur-
ther preparation •of, her class. :'1'hie
teaching was' well done and . the
beautiful lessons: of, the poen were
-cleverly' drawn froth the class. All
were pleased with the lesson.. -,
Miss Bailie discussed School (Tar -
dens from the rural teachers'` stand-
•point. She,' thought that School gar-
dens give the children a'strong mo-
tive to succeed,: The experiments
are am object lesson for'''the section.
She then gave her experience, with
a garden during -the past autnrner.
'Miss Bailie was well pleased with
the result even though it :cost' some
eflort,to. keep it going. The pupils
were interested in their garden . at
schoon.anda'lso their garden. at
morns.
In the evening a 'Large and intelli-

and- instructive address, spoke of our
National Ideays, 'In opening he said
as Canadians we are very .proud of
our natural 'resources, but questioned
if we had• any olaracteristie„ idents..
Then alter showing- that' all nations'
have had their ideals,' as, tor instance
the Hebrews sought after righteous-
nese, the' Greeks ideal beauty, ,the
Romans law, the French art beauty,
the English, manhood, the German
education . etc. he. thought that the
Canadians had their ideal character-
istics also and 'these were givers to
us ley the influx of Ili, I;. Loyalists
and British immigrants Who have
come to our shores. These char',act-
eristics are prescrvanee, or industry,
a love of home life, intellectuality,
chivalry . artt a strong, religious ten-
dcney. As teachers we should teach:
our children to be as industrious chi-
valrous, hone -loving, intellectual and
religious as our forefathcrl were i.e.
that we as teachers are- not merely
imparters of hnow:edgo but nae:on
builders.

Mrs. A. M. Snyder of Clinton read
an excellent paper on "Geography for
Third Classes." She, affirmed that
in ordct to trach Geography ituccess-
fully in third classes a good founda-
tion crust begin at Sr, Part 21id and
he carried throughout the second clas-
ses, -A brief outline . of the work
taught in these classes was given two
special features, being the writing of
notes in the children's note books
given by the teacher for future refer-
ence 'and the importance of familiar-
ity in the use oh the nap. In third
classes pupils read a lesson out of
the Geography, readers at seats; the
lesson is discussed in class and a
brief summary made for pupils to
copy in the Geography note I odes,
Emphasis was laid on neap drawing,
and frequent test examinations. '1'o
teach Geography successfully it must
not be made a secondary subject,
The disci hinn was continued , by
Messrs. Tom, Johnston . and Howard.
Dr. Morgan gave in excellent ad-
dress on 1 domer,'ary envies. Ho held
that the knowledge of civics was the
price of freedom. This causes some
to ask whether it is wise or not to
teach civics to :any great extent,
There are two methods of teaching,
civics, the historic or logical method
which follows the history of a country
from bac beginnings to the present
time and the developing and inductive
method e rod which begins
with the s
gt present
day institutio 1 , right around home,
to pass on to institutions more re-
mote in time and place. This is the
better way.,He would begin with the
village', or twnship council. It exem-
plifies the Saiion love of local self-gov-
ernment, 1'11e problems of taxation,
road-making,-electiop of councillors,
etc,, give the majority of phildren
justthe-knowledge of civics that will
he of most use to them because these
aro the forms of government with
which they will have most to do, -and
teaching of these things will lead
up to some of their work in .Geogra-
phy and Aeilhmetie A study of a
local post ollice, and its uses would
show liow the people there are con-
nected with' the rest of world, and
would be quite interesting. Dr. More
gan's object in taking the subject
was to arouse the interest "hoping
'that teachers would give some les-
ons fn this subject, in connection
with other subjects.
Miss Cragg of Exeter Contieruation
School explained in a lucid manner
her way of teaching husiness forme
Site would have the' pupil imagine
he was a business mail and thus give
lain interest/ in studying the work.
She would begin'with checks, passing
on to letter's, ordering goods paying
for the goods with sightdraft 'accep-
tances, protnissory notes. The pa-
per was interesting to all.=
Dr. ,Strang spoke briefly on the 1111 -
rat School problem and deplored the
many ,changes amort;. the teacher,'
there. IIe thought the teachers were
not to blame for this. They: were hon-
estly preparing ;for their. w o k,
and trying to carry it; on. He
hadn't much faith • in school' gardens,_
-except in ,special cases, nor :the tea
Ching of-a'little :Agriculture to keep
'the teachers there but he thought
it larmses t wouldn't , ,grumble so
muchin the hearing of their children
about their inability to make volley
on the Laren, and would treat their
children 'better, there 'wouldn't - :be
so much restlessness in the country
among both children and' teachers.

summary, of an educational book late-

'terest and amusement by the recital,
This was a new departure but need-
less to say th_:e won't '„be the hast
time blr, McKay will be asked to tell
a._ similar ;tory. The book' taught
that m o s 1 children were born
short and other children were born
long in -some respects. These facts
didn't keep rneny'short boys and
girls from succeeding wonderfully
well along special. lines. The lesson
to be drawnl,.was that examinations
should be more flexible than they are
in regard to the percentages requir-
ed. The disoussion was continued by

Mr. 4,9. B. 11'eidhanimer B. A. Prin-
cipal of the E x e t e r Continuation
school, read an. excellent paper on
the teaching of Agriculture in the
Public Schools. He showed that
nearly all nations are teachirre it now
in their schools. lie held, however,
that it; must be co -related with other
subjects on account "of the crowded
curriculum. A great deal can be dome
to interest children in Forestry, the
breeds of domestic animals, pupils'
progress dubs, etc. A large number
of bulletins are to be had for the ask-
ing from the O. A. C. authorities. He
recommended especially for tete use of
all teachers the too; entitled, "The
First Book of Farming” by Charles
L. Gooderich. Ile would answer the
question, Have 1ve time to carry on
this work ? in the affirmative. The
teaching would create an interest in
the school among the people of the
section, 'Teachers will be amply 10 -
paid who take up this work,'espocial-
ly sinceit will tend to keep the boys
and girls on the farm. IIe would
advise every teacher to qualify to
teach th ' subject by attending the
Smumer School at Guelph,
The Revs. S. P. Sharp and C.
Fletcher' were present and gave short
addresses. The first was glad agri-
culture is being taught in the schools
and Mr. Fletcher commended the boys'
and girls, who come from the country.
