HURON TEACHERS
REVIEW WORK AT
GODERICH MEETING
Speaker Urges Teachers To
Study Differences in
Children.
Clarence Trott, Seaforth, presided
at the • ennual ..convention of 'the
Teachers' 'Institutes 'of North and
South Huron, held in Goderich Tues-
day, with 240 teachers of the county
• present. Dinner was served at 12:3e)
by the Woman's Aesociation of the
chum% in the church hall.
Mr. Trott, president of North Hur-
on Teachers' Institute, presided for
an atter-dinner program. G. F. Jef-
ferson, Clinton, entroduced G. A.
Pearson, assistant superintendent of
elementary education, who, with Dr.
0. E:' Stothers, Toronto, inspector of
auxiliary classes, was a guest speak-
er. Musical numbers, including a
sole. by Margaret Bowra, and a duet
by Maxine Stewart and Eleanor Lau-
der, were presented by Mrs. J. G.
MacDougall, instructor of music in
Goderich schools.
Mr. Pearson, during his instructive
_address, said thaLteachers should not
only .keep abreW of the times, but
must be sure to do the best job they
can. Individual differences in pupils
should be studied: He questioned if
enough time is spent on developing
the.child's interest.
"Ls there too much praise handed
out to the bright pupil, allowing him
to be 'puffed up' and the not -so -bright
child allowed to be frustrated?" he
asked, urging that children be group-
ed at their level. Over -age boys and
.girls should be 'grouped in their age
and --,interest levet
ITegeneral attitude of parents and
students toward marks has 'resulted
in too much emphasis being Waded on
these, and not enough interest direct-
ed toward the course itself. "If a
child is working for a certificate on-
ly, then he won't have (much at the
end of the year." In competitions, he
stees,sed, all factors should be equal;
and he emphasized the value of al-
lowing the child to endeavor to excel
himself.
"It is our responsibility to train
children so that they will be worthy
members of society; and do what is
&est, not easiest," Mr. Pearson said)
in conclusion. -•
Dr; C. E. Stoners, introduced by
Mr. Beatty, is a native of Ashfield
Township in Huron County. His sub-
ject was "Remedial Teaching."
"In Ontario, teachers .who handle
these academically . and physically
handicapped children are doing as
good work as in any part of the
world," he declare&
A survey of unsatisfactory .condi-
tions in eaes of sensitive dissatis-
faction should be mule, be said.
There is no mystery in methods.
Knowledge of the child is essential,
and the speaker gave various exam-
ples of bringing out the intelligence
Of the child. The survey also should
cnnsist of tests, knoWledge 'of teach-
ing material, the child's eeperietice,
• and his medical history of health.

communities. He said he was per-
, turhed at the general trend toward
centralization of power. Government
closest to the people is best, said the
member, as in county councils.
Huron ,County Council Wednesday
afternoon endorsed the recommenda-
tion 42rf the Good Roads Commission
that e20,000 from the $105,000 high-
way reserve fund be expended next
year onbridges, which, win the 80
per cent grant, will permit tonstruc-
tien of bridges to the value of $100,-
000.
Endorsation was also given the
committee's recommendation that a
supplementary appropriation by-law
for $35,000 added expenditure be pass-
ed and submitted to the Minister of
Highways for approval. This action
was taken because the estimated ea.-
penditure 'was higher than provided
for. in the by-law, on account of the
unusually heavy snow -removal costs.
The committee gave assurance that
as much as possible will be done to
keep school bur routes open during
the winter; and .aethorized that the
town line of Hulled and Morris from
No. 4 Highway to Walton, be assum-
ed as a county read, and the present
county road from No: 4 Highway to
Walton revert to the municipalities in
which it is • situated.
The council left to the discretion of
the rood commission the purchase of
snowleTowers at a price of about
$30,000.

weed inspector, reported that spray-
ing of leafy spurge and other obnox-
ious weeds will be continued. The

DeringVie period, prior to the in-
troduction of the regulations and sub-
sequent to the end of daylight saving,
the time of. greatest demand in Sea -
forth was between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m.
At this time, factories were still in
operatton, housewives were com-
mencing to prepare meals, and stores
and other commercial establishments
had window and display lighting on.
The highest peak during this period
was :1,327 horsepower. Since Nov. 10
the highest peak'has been 1,28.6horse-
power, a saving of •.41. H.P., with the
peak occurring, with the exception of

No Restrictions 0n Drinking
In Huron As C. T. A. in Toite
Crown Attorney Dudley E.
Holmes, K.C., Explains
Provisions of Canada.
Temperance Act.
In the 1047 amendment to the Liq-
uor Control Act, receive,a by" Crewn.
Attorney Dudley E, Holmes, K.C., it
is stated that uone or the nrovisions
of the Liquor Control Act 'apply to
the dour.ty of Huron, and that prose-
cutions. iu Huron can be made only
under the Canada Temperance Act. •
Crown Attorney Holmes said, the
Canada. Te-re-perance Act forbids .the
sale of intoxicating liquor in the
County' of Huron but does not forbid'
its being brought in for one's persona,l,
and family use. It does forbid a per-
son, carrying liquor into the county
for• his own use. It must be brought
in by some other person for. him, but
once the liquor is in the county it'
may be carried anywhere inside the
county and consumed openly; and as
long as a person does not create a
disturbance, nothing can be done
abut it. There is nothing in the Can-
ada Temperance Act to revent per-
sons carrying liquor to dances and,
drinking it openly, providing they do
not create a disturbance.
The Cana,da, Temperance Act fur-
ther forbids a person giving a drink
to a .iniend as it would not be "per-
sonal and family use." Outside of that
there is nothing to mreyent the use
of intoxicants by minors or by any
person.', There can be no prosecu-
tions for drunkenness unless a dis-
turbance is created. Liquor may be
drunk at the roadside or any place
within the boundaries of the county.
There' are no • ublic places, as defin-
ed ie nt, rio Act, so that even
if a Tiers ' mvicted of selling un-
der the Canada Temperance Act, his
hotse cannot he declared a "public
place," and the day after hi S convic-
tion he may legally have liquor ship-
ped in.
Under the Liquor COntrol Act, If a
constable bad reason lo suspect that
liquor was contained in a car or other
vehicle, he. had a right to search with-
out warrant, and also to demand the
production of a person's liquor per-
mit. There is ITO such right under tine
Canada Temperance Ad.. No search
can be made in any place, whether
shop, house, or hotel, without a search
warrant, which 'can oly be obtained
on good grounds, and can only be is-
sued by two justices of the peace, in-
stead of by one as under the Liquor
Control Act.
Effect of the new arrangement was
seen in police court here Tuesday,
when 'charges laid under the Liquor
Control Act were dismissed.

Fish Story ,
A routine fishing trip at Gode-

out to be the basis for a pie:of...pry

ber of the fish were still alive.
After a period of recuperation in
the Dobson bath tub, the fish were
handed to Lloyd_ Morrison, also
of the school staff, who transfer-
red them to the school where
they continue to thrive, quite hap-
py in their role as living models
