It was one of the anost successfel ' conventious ever held. One hundred and twentYetwo 'teachers' registered. Tee opening exercises were 'con- ducted by Rev. L. C. 'Harrison, He 'heartily welcotned the teachers and was glad the 'meetings were held he the /Parieh Hall as edtecation and re- ligion should go hand in heed. Mayor jackson welcomed associ- ation ou behafif Of the toWn. He said the door's Of the town wereeehrown wide open to •the teachere. The rec- ords of the last convention were read by IMr. A. F. Johns. A very minute rend interesting report of the 0. E. A. was sent in by the delegate, ;Miss Mc- .. Naughton and read by Mr. Mattson. Mr. N. M. Geddes, president of the Association, gave a very ieteresting and inetrriotive address. He spoke of the lack of knowledge pupils showed in answering gpestons on the Great War. -Heegave' descriptions of two of the battles in which the Canadians took part, Vimy Ridge and Amiens. The lint paper Thursday afternoon was taken by Miss Jean Wylie. Her stibject was Summer 'Sessioge in Ag- riculture. The aims in teaching ag- rictilture are to Make the ,pupils real- ize the fundamental principles under- lying' farm operations, to 'make rtheth capable of thinking and investigating for themselves and to show them that soil -and crops 'furnish problems call ing forth the best ability in .man. Th study of agriculture pursued by •theee methods and with these aim will aid -vastly in the pupil's menta development and seed immeasurably iecreaee their interest in echool and farm life. Thus fewer •of those brought up on the 'farmwill be in- clined to leave it. For this reason teachers in rural districts ought to availthemselves of the courses in ag- rieulture so that they are better fitted to meet the needs of the communitiee in which they are. During the first year of the course collections are mede of weeds and weed eeeds and insects, A garden is given to each pupil to care for, Lec- tures are given in animal hnsbandry, horticulture and floriculture, field husbandry. dairying, poultry raising, soil. ,During the winter the pupils ha& et) read three books on agricul- ture. In the second year more advanced work was taken up, Plants, diseases and preventatives were studied. Lec- tures were given on bee keeping, chemistry, physics. 'Field husbandry, horticulture entomology, Besides the work there were great opportunitie for social life so that a very enjoyable time was spent. • Miss Patience Scott had the sub- ject Teething pf Tides. As it pre- sents difficulties to the minds of children who live inland, Picture from 'books or magazines howing the coast line at different Clues help to get them interested. By means of questioning and diagrams the pupils are taught the relationship between ehe high tides: and the attraction of the sun and moon and the lo -w tide when they are 'pulling against each other. Mr. George Hofferd, of London Normal School, gave an address cn the Aims and Methods of Teaching Agricelture and Horticulture. THE 81EAFORTH NEWS delegate to the 0:..Mr.;IR. J. Miss M. Liteingetone, who .tatt011/ in, an, Indian 'School in the -Fraser veaney; gave a, very interesting talk on B. C. schools for Indiame. .• She simke' of the life in the 'school. being the same as life in any institution, ' The 'children do the work, supervised. by the matrons and teachers, In the schools, besides the regular •school work, the children learn dreeernaking, mending, carpentry wowork,AD work, i etc. There is a Serge nfirmary with e nurse in dharge all the time as the 'isreildren ore sick a great deal. The ceddren enter the school with a ifeel- jag Of antagonism which is haSed to overcome. They cannot forgive the white man for taking their land and anything done for the •Redman ss taken for granted as their right. Near the se-hool was one of their two large hop-tfields in Canada. About 1,-500 'Indians would gather there at .the time of the picking and packing, At night and on Sundays they spent their time at a peculiar gambling game. Most of the homes at -these fields were kept in terrible confusion but a few of' the women who had attended schools had things neat and tidy, ehowing that all the work done for the Indians was not in rain. ;Mrs. Snider took hp the History Paper of 1926. The queetions were well proportioned, well chosen and not too lotig. The British North America Act -was the one evihich 'caus- ed the most difficulty. She explained how she took it with her class— reason for captained before the act was taken. The question on the war was answered well for the most part but some were quite haze on the battles. In some cases children, lost sight of What vas asked for, e.g. De- scribe the reasons for building tile C. P, R. The children described- the building of tile railway instead. The absence of dates was noticed. All dates a.re not necessary but import- ant ones should always be put in. In giving the characters of men 'very often the unimportant things are 'put down and what the man did ifoteehle count*, was not mentioned. If they are described under the headings, who he was, character, what be did for his country, they would probably answer better. • Dr. Shaw spoke on the treatment of Infectious Diseases in Schools, in- cluding Goitre. , 'Health officers and teachers should work hand in hand. He believes that every teacher should take a course of six weeks paid by the government so they could find bad tonsils, bad teeth, te. and have them remedied +before they injure a •ohild permanently. If a teacher knows the 'family history and environment of a child he can tell a good deal about him. If the 'chil- dren are educated regarding infectious „diseases the next .gendation will be 'healthier . Most people are lin- muoe to -some disease. By tests it can be discovered what you are im- mune to and scrums aud can be.injected which will 'prevent -the disease for a number of years. Some children will have a disease such as scarlet fever but will not show it 'ex- cept for a sore throat. These are called carriers and are very 'danger- ous M spreading infection. DUBLIN.
