He strongly, .recommended that every teacher take out membership in the O.E.A. as by its functioning it is of inrineuse benefit to the educational facilities of our province, benefiting teachers, school -boards and the gen- eral public as in . its many and varied branches it seeks to promote the general' welfare mentally,. phys- ically and morally. He was especial- ly inteersted in an address by Mr. Ferrier of the Mimico Industrial School regarding the work being carried on in that institution, in which he gave some of the more im- portant causes of juvenile delinquen- elk viz: 1. Poor home conditions and environment, parents divorced, part- ed, or home broken by death. 2 The gang spirit in youth. Parents should be particularly careful to know the whereabouts of their children be- tween the hours . from 0 to 9 p•tn. 3 Sensational literature. 4 The use of cigarettes. Mr. Crawford also brought to the attention of the teachers the necessity of keeping exact written records of the length of time taught and salary reeeived in each school, sous to avoid trouble in connection with the settling of claims from the ,Superannuation Fund. A most interesting paper was that . given by Miss Reid of Blyth en "Fifth Form in Public Schools." The trend towards higher education has resulted in a large increase in the number of Rural Public Schools de- manding the establishment of Fifth Classes. Financial conditions of parents, and the early age at whirl some children pass the Entrance Ex- amination are two factors that pre- vent children from being sent from home to attend High Scheele, or Col- legiete'Institutes in larger centres. There tire many difficulties in suc- cessfully carrying on the work, This is especially true of Science, owing to the difficulty of procuring proper 'equipment, This . however, can be largely overcome by an ingenious teacher, as she showed in relating 4;,.er experiences in teaching capillat- ' ity and osmosis with home-made e- quipment, The fact that most rural schools,' are heated only in daytime often militates against experiments that require long periods of time to complete. Geogaphy, snap -drawing, Art, Grammar, History and Algebra she thought were subjects that could most profitably make up the greater part of the curriculum in Fifth Masses. One of the difficulties too, is that many of the fifth Classes are very small, often .only one or two in a class, and School Boards hesitated to make substantial expenditures where so few are taking the work'. After Dr. Field had commented on the success of Fifth Classes in com- neting with others. in after years in. higher cladses pf the high school, the ftlrenoon session adjourned to at- tend a dinner given in St. Andrew's Church Hall by the women of the Ladies Aid Society of that church. At the noon hour after an excep- tionally well -served dinner the con- vention listened with, delight to the speaker 'provided by the Department of Education, Dr. Amoss, of Toronto, who spoke regarding the training of children requiring special methods of training to fit them for taking their places in the world. "Industry," he said, "has learned, in late years, to utilize what were formerly waste products, and therein to find its pib- fits. Education is now realizing that what was once waste can be educated to become useful •and helpful m;em- bersse the -society. He cited specific instances, showing that some of these "different -minded" had 'become leaders in various walks of life. He, showed what is now being done,for those who are not able to learn from the printed page -in" special erases for what he termed "direct learners." Provision is n.ow made by the De- `partmett of Education to give these people a chance, •by means of Auxil- iary Classes, specially qualified teachers and by special grants to such classes in towns ` and cities,. Mrs. Kingan, accompanied by Mrs., Tlanhaedelighted their audiences by her solos., 1.30 the Institute again con - Vane& in the Parish Halla Miss Cora Strong of Walton spoke on Music in Rural Schools, She Showed the vat - child physically and.. inentally, and its use for recreation in school, as well as in the life of the community. Songs train the voice, 'the ear and the mind: "In rural s"ehools songs- should, ongs • shoul s to ll .gas , dbe chosen en suitablea 'n• I and pupils shouid_be trained in ap- preciation' of what ,is good in music, A ofthe.composer's life o en .study ft results in more intelligent; interpre- tation, 'Summer courses int musie provided by the department were reecho -mended to the convention. Miss Viola Fraser, of Clinton con- .tinned thediscussion of music and by means of a, chart showed where and how various tones were produced stressing the value . of getting proper voice vibrations and breath control. She demonstrated methods of get- ting oice-c tr i ciasse an the ng v an oI , rt. s,; d h importance: of getting good tonality - rather than volume. :She outlined a course of Public School music suited to graded schools.. ' Mr. Crawford • of Seaforth appeal- ed to the' teachers of, East Huron to ':report to the. Lion's Club any (rip- pled 'children in their sections who Were in need of treatment, • as the club is anxious that. their °survey be as complete as possible, and the greatest amount of good possible be • done. A drill with singing by pupils of the Wingham Public School trained by Misses Joynt and Mahood was appreciated by Dr. Amass addressed . the conven- tion on "Primary and Intermediate Geography." ,His clever use of the sand table its a• lesson on "Making Maple Sugar" was intensely inter- esting, and wart a revelation of what can be done with quite simple equip- tient that can be prepared by almost any child. The use of perspective in the arrangement of figures in his composition 'added to the"reality of the finished product. Following his ,address he presented for the inspec- tion of the teachers a great many examples of handwork byprimary and Intermediate pupils, such as scrapbooks, charts of products, snaps cut from cardboard and 'wood with coning saw, as well as various other cut-outs. T)r. Amass feels that teachers talk, too nuleli in the Geo- grnphv lessen, and that more valu- able training and more lasting re- sults can'be obtained by setting the bands of the pupils to work, rather than depending so'nmch•on the ear ne the avenue to the understanding. The speaker was beartily applauded at the conclusion of his address. The story of the Junior Red Cross was brought to the attention of the institute by Miss Verna McLaughlin of Wingham. The Junior Red Cross is a child of the patriotic movement originating in the Great War, It is supported and financed by the par- ent Red Cross Society, and 'like it has for its objects the prevention of disease, the improvement of health, and the lessening of suffering. Bad health habits cduse disease, and it is the duty of the Junior Red Cross Society to replace these with good stealth habits. In a very practical way Mies McLauglin showed how the society was carried on in her (lass --eon; and showed that besides attaining • the ()bleats for which it was first formed, it exercised the minds of the children in organizn- tien, parliamentary procedure. It mmeals to the best in a child's ria - tore, promoting good diealth, good eitteenshin, a healthy mind, a desire to help others, as well as n feeling of international friendship to those of the Junior Red Cross in other lands. • On Friday morning at 0 a.ni, the rettor.•t . of the nominating committee was received. It was decided to hold the 1091 convention in Clinton, and the following officers• were elected for 1031: President, Kenneth Ashton, Blyth; Vire-President.

He attended public school in the village there, and later. the, Clinton Collegiate Institute. He left home While quite a boy, going to Detroit and then to Cleveland, Ohio; where he spent some years with the Lincoln Electric Co.

CANADIAN GOLD PRODUCTION GROWS North Americais, next to Africa, the chief gold -producing continent, usually contributing , about • one- quarter of the world's annual gold output. Within the past decade North American production has rather more than held its own, but this showing has been clue entirely to the fact that Canada's rising output has been sufficient to offset the decline its the United States and Mexico. Ten years agothe goldoutput of the United States was three times as great as that of the Dominion. To: day the two countries .are almost on' a par in that regard. • Bulbs for Winter For- cing in the Home (Experimental Farris Note) The .amount of trouble needed to grow bulbs in the house is well re- paid by beautiful flowers. in winter and early spring. They can be grown in. clay, pots with earth or in fancy bowls with prepared fibre or in water alone. When pots are used 'se sure to put a piece of broken crock over the hole and a, layer of 'smaller pieces for drainage before nutting in the earth. The soil should be of a sanely 'nature so that water will run through 41 freely. Narcissus (daffodils) tulips and hy- acinths can all be grown in pots. When planting, place tho bulb Co that the crown is above the soil, Af- ter planting, water, well, drain and Hien place the pots in a cool, dealt place _to root. When the roots begin to slime through the hole at the bot- tom and the top is beginning to grow, bring the pot into a cool rooni and keep in -a shady spot for a day or two. When the flower buds are be- ginning to show the plants should be 'brought into a warmer room and placed 'near the window. The plants must never be allowed to dry out but must not stand To water. Another method of growing bulbs is to use fancy bowls and prepared fibre. The fibre is bought from. seedstores. The • bowls should be shaped so that the bottom is nearly as wide as the top. The fibre should be evenly moistened but should not be too wet. Put a little in the bowl and place the bulbs on it, using as many as convenient. They should not touch each other nor the sides of the bowl. Do not press the fibre down too firmly, as the bulbs may lie forced- out of position if the roots cannot penetrate the fibre easily. . '.Some of the best bulbs' for growing in soil or fibre are: Hyacinths in various. colours, Narcissus: Emperor, Mme. Plemp, Sir Watkin, Klondyke, Laurens Kos- ter, Seagull, Tulip: (Early)' Queen of Nether- lands, 1Vfo'n Tresor, Murillo. Tulip: (Darwin)' Ii'arncombe San- ders, Psyche, Clara Butt, Rev. W. Ewbauk. Some bulli?; can be grown success- fully in water ,alone, Hyacinths are grown' in specially shaped glasses; Chinese Sacred Lilies a"nd paper white Narcissus in (bowls. These are kept in place by small stones which are packed around the 'bulbs. A small piece of charcoal should be added, as it :helps to keep the Water sweet. All bulbs should be kept in a cool, dark nlace until 'they are well"rooted and then brought ••-to the light gradually. (Isabella Preston, 'Central Experi- mental Farre, Ottawa, Ont.

SIDEWALK ISSUE MATTER OF HISTORY • The final chapter was written in the Wellington street sidewalk im- broglio at Toronto on Tuesday of this week, when the Appellate Cosn'i granted a motion confirming a set- tlement reached by litigants in the case of Wigle vs. the Town of God- erich. As a result of the granting of this motion by consent the con- tarcters, Bell Bros.,yesterclay pro- ceeded with the work of constructing the sidewalk on Wellington. street, from St. George's Crescent to West street inside the trees, and from West street to Elgin avenue outside the trees, as agreed upon in the settle- ment. As is well known, this Wellington street' sidewalk has a history which provoked hours of discussion, much of it heated, at the town council board. When an injunction was ap- plied for .by Mr. E. R. Wigle re- straining the town from building the sidewalk„outside the trees, it was granted bCounty Judge Lewis. This was last year, and work on Welling- ton street was peremptorily halted and has been held up ever since. The town appealed from the order of the county judge and held high hopes of succeeding in this appealwhen an armistice was called and a settlement reached. Each side.pays its own law costs, which are considerable, while Bell Bros., the contractors, signed' an unliertalcing .foregoing all claims to damage by reason of the interrup- tion last year on the Wellington street work. A start was ,again made on this street several weeks ago, but work was again halted pending the grant- ing of the motion for an order con- firtning_sgettlentent, the council de- ciding •on a policy of "safety'first,” Thus closeth the final chapter in the :story of the battle of Wellington street. The sidewalk will be' both inside and outside the trees, accord- ing to the aesthetic tastes of pro- perty -owners. All's well that ends well.-Goderich Signal.
