Mr. Hogarth gave a large amount of information. Mr, T, F. Wright, of the Reming- ton: Business College, Toronto, gave an excellent address on penmanship. IIe "e&aimecl that penmanship is a science and should be taught scren- .tifioally, If done so we should have very much better results than we DOW have, Tie held that writing should be plain, easily and quickly written, i]3e would be careful to teach the muscular movement and to have the pupils seated properly. No metallic holders should be used 'Teach movement first and form af- terwards. The capital letters should be taught first or with the small let- ters, to .,prevent a cramped style. He would commend the good letters, rather than condemn the poor ones. The address was instructive and very interesting,. Mr. 'Wright certainly knows his subject. • Mr. Weidenhammer, , B. •A., ad- dressed the Association on Science in Continuation Schools. ,He held that the present course was too extensive for time allowed and thought the remedy ;teas to reduce the amount of work required or extend the time to three years instead of two. He thought the 'Continuation class should he a sort of rural high school in which the science subjects could be taught so as to aid those who will devote their lives to . agriculture. The science should be taught ex- perimentally, The note books should be filled and all summaries, drawings and iedividual work preserved. The In.ounted specimens in botany needn't ;be very many, but they should be well done;., 1Co,asittetabte discussion arose in reference to Fifth 'Class students from rural Schools entering the second and third forms of the collegiate. The rural teachers are quite -indignant that :the collegiate and high school teachers are apparently trying to kill the fifth class by their refusing to grant fifth class pupils 2nd and 3rd form standing. Mr. G. S. Howard, of Blake, then introduced the subject of "a day's work," 'F Ie being a rural teacher in a heavy school, showed what heavy labor lay before the teacher. 'Ere advocated several ways in which the teachers can lighten the day's work before entering the school room, by having good order, and by giving plenty of busy work to the lower grades. (THURSDAY EVENING. At the evening session in the Opera House a pleasant and profitable two hours were spent. The Presi- dent occupied the chair. Miss Mabel Bailie recited nicely.

The society organizes Bands .of !Mercy among the school children and Mr. 'Harris hopes . the day is coming whets. a ]3and of Mercy will be formed in every school and he looks for the co-operation of the teachers of this grand old county of IIuron in this work. Miss Johns sang very acceptably a splendid solo. TEACHERS' CONVENTION The thirty-second annual meeting of the West Huron Teachers' Association was held in the Public School, Exeter, on Thursday and Friday, May 20th and 21st. THURSDAY MORNING In the absence of the President, J. W. Hogarth, Inspector Tom occupied the chair. Devotional Exercises were conducted by Mr. J. S. belgaty. The following committees wore appoint- ed:—Resolution—Messrs. W. B. Weiden- hammer, W. McKay, Bluett and N. W. Trewartha, and Misses Vosper. Hamilton and Consitt. Auditing—Messrs. A. McLeod and J. M. Robertson. The President, having arrived, as- sumed the chair. The subject, What to do•with Tru- ants was introduced by ,Mr. N. W. Trewartha. His experience with truants was very limited and he explained the kindly yet judicious way in which he dealt with the few casts he had had. Be then said he thought the teacher should make the school -work pleasant, 'playtime should be made interesting with games, and good lessons could be taught the pupils in connection with the teaching of Tommy and the 'Crow and Daffy. dote„dilly. The teacher should show the very great value of an edueation.

School En- trance examination we recommend that the following subjects be added to the present course. Physiology, Drawing, Canadian History and a. period of British History. V. In our opinion we think teachers should be allowed to teach at 19 years of age. VI. We recommend that No. 14 read i instead of 7, and that the holidays reman as they are at present. All other resolutions from the 0. E. A. were recommended to be adap- ted as they are on the printed sheets. The following new resolutions were recommended. Il) That the Geo- graphy .Text Book be revised every five years to show the revised maps. (2) That in the opinion of this As- sociation pupils who have passed Public School Graduation examination should on -entering a collegiate In- stitute receive due credit for tho work covered in the Public School and a diploma issued by the Edu- cation department. ''1'he report was adopted in full. 'The secretaries were appointed a committee to forward these resolu- tions to Mr. Chas. G. Frazer, Secre- tary Public School Department, 0. E A. 'Mr. T. F. Wright then took the subject of arithmetic and in the course of an able address taught that figures should be plainly made, that addition should be taught by ;adding ones and twos until proficient before adding by threes, multiplication should be taught by drilling thorough ly with the smallest numbers before advancing further, and then gave a number of simple and excellent de- vices for rapid calculation. The nd- dress was very much enjoyed by the ten.chers and business men present. Pupils of the elasses of Misses Kinsman and Howard snng a num- ber I?f school: songs so as to delight every ' one.

Shore then addressed lht association on making the school- room attractive. Ile thought the burden of doing so is primarily placed neon the teacher and secondarily upon the the trustees. The teacher should dtr his work in the school. -room in a, pleasant and interesting way and then he should explain to trustees the great advantage of proper light- ing. seating nncl ventilation if these be. not properly attended to. If the leacher does his part wisely good re- sults will fo'.Hw. The address was good and created much interest whieh was shown in the discussion that fol- lowed in which the following took part Messrs. Elliott. Delgaty, Johnston and Toni and Misses Swann, a.nrl Milligan. Seventy-three teachers were pre- sent at the morning session. THURSDAY AFTERNOON The minutes of the forenoon mess - ion were read and approt1ed, Mr. J. lW. Hogarth delivered the president's address on his visit to English schools in 1008. The ad- dress. showed careful preparation and that 'Ma ttiogarth had taken very �- nI what is being done in W. C. T. U. THE CRY OF THE TWO-THIRDS '"Baby dvanliko it --it nassy," "why, you dont know, you haven't tried it, papa thinks it good,” he said, "mamma dean., and Unkey Docker dvan," said the wee ilady shaking her hand a way she had when in earnest. Her father look- ed up angrily, "Helen" he began but she stopped hint, ''you know Maurice that neither the Dr. nor I could speak of such things to that baby. And he did know and sub- sided. But Dr John had said a good deal to his brother, he had done more than that on his knees, his arms embracing him, he had begged him to give up what was so surely leading him to ruin; "Non- sense, you are crazy, Jack 1 I know what I'm about." Do you know that your paper has Dome to pro- test and I have been obliged to re- deem it to save your credit?" ask- ed his brother, yes, Maurice knew and blushed as he acknowledged it. Only a debt of honor Jack, 1 dont gamble often, but the boys bother me a little and I bate to seem un- civil, but I pledge you the thing shall not happen again." Indeed it was beginning to be whispered abroad that Maurice Droutly was beginning to get a little "fast" Helen never knew, these murmurs did not reach her ears, and John meant they never should. It was to his brother everybody appealed and he intended they should. It was strange what a downward plunge this man was taking, sud- den it seemed to most people, won- dering if business disaster or un- happiness at home were driving him on. For years Maurice had been developing his appetite as a moderate drinker, suddenly it had taken giant prpportons and noth- ing seemed to satisfy it. The Dr had a long talk with his brother one day after he had°`been closeted with Mr. Spofford for hours and together they bad gone patiently over the accounts. (To be continued) Ethel M. Williams, Pres., Sint. Mrs. Weidcnhammer. in a . most del,ghtful manner gave a humorous reading from "Sowing seeds in Dan- ny." Dr. Strang. of the Goderich Col le^iate. gave, as he always does. an excellent address on his visit 1:o Eng- land and. Scotland rind spoke more especially on. his impressions. Those l.hnt had the greatest influence on him were, the rich green in which nature clothed everything, the won- i.,erful profusion of roses. the good roads, the curious blending of the old and the new. espccial;y in the Highlands,, the advantages of rail- way arrangements, the excellent work of the police force of London. the necessity of seeing London from the top of an omnibus and the un- failing courtesy of everybody. He would advise every tourist in Britain to -see the view from, Sterling and Edinburgh. The best tribute we can pay to this splendid address is that it. invoke longings in the hearts of many for the time and means to take a similar trip.. The singing of the national anthem brought the meeting to a close. FRIDAY MORNING The association opened with the President in the chair. Devotional exercises were conduct- ed by 'Dr. Strang.

'Wright took up Business Correspondents. explaining • clearly how to fold the paper, place in the envelope and put in the enclosure, how to write the letter and arrange the matter con,laine cl therein, show- ing how •necessary it is to write clear- ly, etc. Many very useful hints were were given and the teachers were much interested. This was the last in: Mr. Wright's addresses all of which were well received and very highly valued. Mr. '0. Bluett spoke on School Libraries -and in a pleasant and con- vincing way„volce of •the real value of these libraries. 'ile would allow the use of the books during school hours after the pupils had been en- gaged for sometime in strenuous school -work. The :discussion was continued Mr. Huston. Miss 'Winona Howard taught a Reading and Spelling lesson to o. Sec- ond Part class of bright little boys and girls. The teaching was done in a very pleasant and attractive man- ner. The Association .was so well pleased that a hearty vote of thanks was tendered•Miss IIoward. Mr. Baird introduced the subject of New Copy Books, arid spoke favor- ably of them. In his opinion a No. 0 should be added containing a set of hardlines in small ladies' hand. The discussion was continued by several members. some •suggesting that school sections provide the copy books if booksellers will not handle them. 'The children could in this way procure the books at the two cents each. i tri The Question Drawer was opened land the questions answered in an able and scholarly manner by .Inspector Tom and Dr. Strang. Some discussion arose in reference to a.,trip to Niagara next year. Votes of thanks were tendered those who contributed so cheerfully. to last night's entertainment, •Mr, T, F..Wright of Remington Business Col. lege, Toronto, contributed so much to the sucoesS of the Institute, and to the Trustees and Teachers of the Bxe- ter school for their kindness in giving their school wad 'decorating so nicely. The ,singing of the National Anthem brought a most successful Institute to a close. If your stomach, heart or kidneys are weak, try at least, a few doses only of. Dr Shoop's Restorative. In five orten days only, the result will surprise you. A few cents will cover the Bost. And here is why help comes so quickly. Dr Shoop doesn't drug the stomach, nor stimulate the heart or kidneys.
