'Miss Margaret Pentland of Dun-'
';'armor', rendered a solo entitled, "01d
.Mother Hubbard'" and to encore,;
both of which merited, hearty ap-
plause.
Hiss its A• Ellis of Hle'nsall, intro-
duced the subject of teaching prob-
lems in arithmetic to second grade
pupils. Her plan is to lead the class
to clear individual thinking. Pupilsat
tlit't stage should know the meanii'rg
all and should have a thorough grasp
of addition subtraction', "nrulttpli'ca-
tion .and division as.applf;ed to- the pro-
blems taught, samples of - solutions
should beplaced on bhe blackboard, as
a guide and the denonaittatioa. of the
answers obtained should' allways be
'drafted. 'Statements should be concise
.and .accuracy the chief aim..A good
start 10 this grade makes the work of
the higher grades easier.
IThe matter of bhe Teachers' 'Lib-
rary !w'as d'isouslsed, The ,institute a
few years ago had a splendlid library
of over 2,000 volumes bait, the books
were not read as was intended. IThley
iwere then placedinthe different pub
-
tic libraries oif the inspectorate and Se-
veral were lost. Those still available
are being colitedted, listed' and'Lek in
'Victoria S'chooi, iGodeni.ch, in charge
of Princ'ipiai Stonehouse who was ap-
pointed librarian. New ones are to be
.a'd'ded' to the list from year to year
and teachers are advised to ana'lsle use
of this source of reading. The instit-
ute will bear the expense of postage
.on all 'books sent out and the teacher
twine pay returning charges. A period
of two weeks is allowed c for the read-
ing of eaclh book which must then. be
rehunne'd' to the 'librarian, not passled
alo'n'g to another 'teacher.
At the noon hour the La'd'ies Asso
cilation' of North street United Church
banqueted the teachbrs and in. the .af-
ternoon the whole body, numbering
Well aver one •hund'red visited the sa'lIt-
iblock and flour mill. Two ` d'ivisi'ons
were formed and were taken by offi-
cials through the 'plants. The climb-
ing of several flights of stairs provid-
ed 'heal'thy , exercise. This coiticludled
the sessions of th'e fiday.
Friday
IRev. George Watts of North street
United Qhunch, conducted the open-
ing exercises of the second day after
which• followed the minutes of ,the
.previous session.
Miss Myrtle Carr of Benimiller,
took a lesson in agriculture with a
class of pupils selected ,frown the town
school. The subject selected was
"Seed Disnersal," Samples of weeds
were exhibited for idenibiilidation and
as example e.g.: by wind, the dande-
lion and 'thistle; by water, several
aquatic plants; by animals, burs; by
man with seed grain: Alt the conclu-
sion a general review was taken, The
lesson was quite interesting and well
taught.
Rev. D. J. Lane, of Knox Presby-
terian Church,' gatle an address on
"School Days," recalling his own
spent in Bruce County. His recollec-
tions called' to memory not so much
the knowledge he gained but the per-
sonality of his different teachers. This
spl'en'did address reached' its climax
in the following lines quoted' from
John Powell: .
"As evening twilight fades away,
The sky is filled with stars isv'isiblle
by day."
'The''Harm;on•ic Band, composed of
ten pupils under the direotion of Prin-
'cipal Stonehouse, broke the monotony
of the session by contributing a couple
df selections on the mouth motes..
Miss Pearl Lode of Cred'itar gave
a paper on "The First Three Months
'with Primary Pupils." ,Her plan is to
follow individual teaching as far as
time permits. A list of new words,
when learned, are placed upo. cards
and kept in envelopes. by the pupil's
to be used as review exercises. Games
should be used to review swords and
figures. When far enough advanged
silent reading ahotsid' be taken. At
least five .new words can. be taken each
day and on Fridays a review of those
prierioeely learned. F'or memory.
short poems are placed' 'on the black-
board. The difficult word's in it learn-
ed and the verse repeated line by line
until complete. Several teachers offer-
ed suggstions and a nu'm'ber of ques-
tions were asked.
A pleasant surprise• was given the
,conventionew.hen Jack Miner entered
the hall, On being called to the frond
he gave a brief address on his boy-
hood clays spent in Ohio, U.IS.'A.,
where in a small school, 'taught by
Miss M'1,n'ic Chub, he received what
little education he got. His address
evoked peals of laughter and served
as a drawing card: to his lecture to be
given in bhe a'fteroo,nin bhle sante hall
Mrs's M. A. Horton, of Exeter, in-
troduced the subject of oral arithme-
tic. This should he taken'p'rett§ous to
the written work. The meahgig of
teach problem sh'ou'ld be carefi1'ly ex-
plained and frequent practice• taken
for .wt lea's't five minutes at a time
Teachers s'h'ould' make haste sIo'wly'
end spend much time in. review. Lns
pector '13eaco'm stressed bhts work
which may be taken at the time of
the regular lesson. At school fairs this
year oral arithmetic was, an item on
the otognams. A number of teachers
added to wheat had already been given
Miss' E'no'11a' Buswell, of Exeter,
contributed a couple of vocal slelec-
tens which were greatly appreciated
Mrs, L. Filshie of Hensel Contin-
uati'on School gave an ins'tru'ctive pa-
per on Art. Her suggestions for fall
would be flowers and .fruits starting
with the red and yellow colours.
Brush work eh'ouild be introduced ear-
ly in the term. At 'first one colour an-.
'ly should be used, then introduce the
blending of two or more bo'n'es. Shade
o'ws sh.oul'd be taken railer in object
alr'a'•,vin;q. 'Jeer experience has shown
that poor artists in September some-
times turn out leaders in June 'aai
sonletin s the dullest pupils d'evelor;
into good artists. During Christmas
time card's may be made and colored.
Japanese prints were also suggested.
.Picture study proves interesting and.
often the most ind'ifferen't pupils take
a great i'n'terest .in the subject Sever-
al models, used as exhibits, were left
for inspection'.
II n. the afbennlaoo Mr. Thornton
Mustard, MIA., BIIPaed., of Toronto
Normal 'Stehlool, a former teacher of
this in'slpedtonatte, held' the'conven'tionr

pare the pupils to enter into. the epi'.
The fifty-fifth annual convention of,
1112s't, Huron Teachers' Association
was held' in MacKay Hall, Goderich,
on Thursday and Friday, October 6th
and 7th, Mr. Claude B'lowes, of .Hen -
:Sail, presided.
The opening exercises of the ,first
session were 'taklen by Rev. j. N. H.
Mills, rector of St. George's 'Ghurch.
Mayor C. C. Lee, in a brief address
extended a welcome to the teachers
and in the coarse of his remarks gave
a history of the salt works, which the
teachers were to visit in th'e after -
neon. In 1866 Sandy Platt searching
for oil drilled to a depth of 1.100 ,feet
in Salbford'' and found not oil but salt.
Later in 1880 another well w'as drilled
'to'a depth .of 1600 feet. Thele are the
two salt works still in operation.
The minute's olf . the session of '1931
were read anal adopted. After the
journals, book . displays, advertise-
m;e'nits, 'etc., a Health p'l'ay entitled,
"An Argument in the Kitchen," was
put on by Miss Gertrude Sturdy of
V'ictori'a School. Twenty -!four girl's
of the school took part. The aim of
the play was to show the food value
of milk. 'Th'e girls appeared in the at-
tire of Red Gross nurses and the play
'took the, form of a trial before a
judlge each one giving evidence as to
the different usesof milk. The hearty
applause gave evidence of how well ,alt
,p'erforme'd their pants. Mr. Beacom
commented, on the w'ark already done
by teachers' and pupil's of scho'ol's tak-
ing this work and. outlined the plan of
entering upon the work of the Jun-
ior Rled Cross.
(The reports of the ,delegates .to the
O4EsA. were 'given by Miss Adta Web-
ster and Mr. Claude Blo'wes. 'These
were given in such deta'i'l that space
will not permit a lengthy account: T,he
proceedings of the larger association
an'd the'ad'd'resses of such eminent ed-
u'cation'alists as Hon. G. S. Henry, Sir
'Robert Falconer, Sir J'oh'n Adlanas and
.Dr. J. H. Putnam and others are
worth reading. Teachers were sbnong-
l'y advised to become members of the
ru•r'al d'ivi'sion of .this association.
'Muss Doris D'urnin, of Glc'derioh
,followed with. Primary 'Sint Work.
IHcr plan is to keep t'he pupils busy
and interested. She has her cllas's
nuke 'book pavers, portfallios, plasti-
cine .materials, etc. Colours are taught
from charts, time from card .board
clock faces and animal drawings frofm
stencils. Weather charts illustrate
clear, rainy,' snowy or windy ,dlays.
Duri'n'g the year each pupil 'reads
from ten bo bwcnty books suitable to
their age,. The paper was of interest,
especially to primary teachers and se-
veral ad'dition'al hints were thrown
out. Material for this grade may be
obtained at Tittle cost from G. M,
Hendry Go., the Royal, Bank o'f Can-
ada and from other sources.
