When that is accomplished we shall have a . year of thirteen months of exactly four weeks, twen='+ ty:eight days each. All holidays and gall other dates, will then occur on the same day each year and a calendar `yvill last a lifetime. Trains on the C. P. R. lines from ,Goderich to Toronto and from Listow- el to Toronto have ,been cut to one each way a day. • At Goderich the train from Toronto arrives about noon and that ,,going. out leaves at 1:30,. Business men say that this service is inadequate, but the C. P. R. is trying. t0 .economize. The Goderich Signal suggests that if the outgoing train could be held until late in the after moon it would be better accommoda- tion. It is really rather hardon the towns between, which hay.4, to depend entirely an the' C. P. R. for service. Goderich is very well served • by the C. N. R. EAST HURON TEACHERS' CONVENTION A very successful convention was held in W inghain on, Oct..let and 2nd. Rev. Mr. Snell cohdueted-the opening exercises aria also spoke about the recent changes in the regulations per- mitting religions instruction in :schools. Mayor Willis extended the welcome of the town, and also stressed the value of the teachers' work in the -community. The records of the last convention, were read by Mr. A. F, Johns. Miss M. Mellis gave .a very full and •• interesting report of the meet- ing -of the 0. E. A, last Easter, from 'which the following items are quote 'ed: "547 teachers and inspectors' are now on the superannuation list. The amount of the pensions is gradually increasing and as the fund' increases more concessions will be granted. "The problem of the feeble-minded, • child is beginning to occupy the at.. •tention of educators. Two per cent, of the school population of Ontario are mentally defective. The auxil- iary• classes are specializing in work forthese pueils." :Miss B. Carter gave a paper on. Primary Arithmetic, She outlined the various steps she took with a be- ginners' class and..the methods she used throughout the course. She fav- ored extensive avored-extensive use of number cards, pictures and counting of, to get clear ideas of each number and its parts, and the symbol for it. The "►- O.x • , ideas gainedfrom handling concrete - picteriel are more clearly .impressed ion the minds of the pug's. The subject of."Are and Construe- tion Work in Primary Grades" was aliIy handled by Miss R. Sotheran of Winghain Peebles Sehool, Any•subj- jeets for Art ' or Construction work should bethose of interest to the child, and all real effort should receive eneaurageunent; .They will thus gain confidence in their ability to dreier' end construct pictures. Art. can assist greatly•in number work, stor- ies,health posters and reading les- sons. Children's toys and playthings snake excellent models to draw from, a Moths, butterflies, birds, leaves' anal fruits are also good. Each season, and festival offers suggestions. She showed many excellent samples of her .pupils' work. Mr. John Davidson, M.A., B.Paed„ of the Hamil4n Normal -School, gave •a very instructive lecture on "Teach- ing how to think," The teacher should aim to direct the pupils' thinking to specific ends; Ie nature study, 1pup-° els can discover what insects and an- imals are our friends and -ow en- -emies, Iia literature, etc,, supplement what they read and also they can pick out the important facts. Proper -methods of thinking prepare pupils to meet the probleme andemergencies, of life, which 'is just a succession of problems. An, interesting address • was 'givers '.by Dr. john M. Field.,on the education and life of Hugh Miller, as outlined in his. autobiography, "My schools and school.nsasters," Friday Sessions. The, election of officer's resulted' in the following selections: President, N. M. Geddes. Vice -President, Miss Ida -Cornish; Sec.-Treas., A. F. Johns, all of Olin - ton.
