Association, familiarly known ItS the O. E. A. There are two main divitions of this body-4he aeademicand the admina estrative. Mr, A, E. Bryson is styled general secretary of these combined but in reality he represents the academic aide almost exclusively. The administrative side has as its ecretary, Mr. W. M. Morris, who has In the past eight years built up a very large organization, particularly, amongviral trustees. He is well known in every part of the province, and has done a great work of organi- *ton among a section of the corn- leellitY that had not the means of ex- presing its ideas regarding education. The attitude of the Ministerof Edu- ation, Hon. G. Howard Ferguon, has been generous toward this movement. An additional means of expression of the people's ideas regarding educe - • tion has been built up by Xr. 'Morris —"The Canadian School Sournar—of which he is the editor and business manager.

No, if any one of the delegates was hi pick out a place to spend three days "having a good time" he would surely go elsewhere. ' Some of the delegates go to the Gonvention to learn. They feel the need for further information in order to best carry out their duties as School trustees or teachers as the cnse may be. These are the delegates who get most out of the Convention. Other delegates go with the idea of "putting soulethipg over" at the.Con- vention. Occasionally this group does win out; but usually they don't, for the delegates as a whole are "from Miseouri" and "have to be shown." Nobody professes to love this group of delegates; but they do two things ...they keep the Convention awake, and every tient and then, they get by with a constructive idea that beeomes Pert Of Our educational system. Another group of 4e1eateg goes to defeat the various proposals that have been made from time to time to alter aril imnrove echrmtioeril conditions within the province. New idert, be they good or bad, always find plenty • of opposition. In the Truateir De- partment this phase of life has same - tittles been overdone. This has been particularly true in the attitude of many toward the Township School Board Bill. a pro- posed measure that has occupied the front of the stage for three or four Years to the exclusion of almost ev- erything else. Some delegates attended the Con- vention merely to register their vote against this meaure. Needless to say a number of the voters had never read the bill and' did not know what it WaS all about; but they were against it anyway. Others honestly saw what to them were serious de- feats in the Bill believing that it would rob the people of local control of their schoole, instead of giving them a tinier and more intelligent control through co-operation. This year the Township School Doard did not MUM' so Prong110a a position as uual. Gradually the idea of ea -operation is gaining ground. The point of attack was shifted, and the delegatescented trouble in the proposal to eliminate the unduly small school—four pupils or less—of which there are abont 125 in the Poviitee. The proposal was voted down on the ground that it Wan but the thin edge ef the wedge. Of course, nobody goes away from that convention just as they went there. A few roans, pigheaded people pay be more set in their ideas than ever but the great majority see school of- ., fairs frent a new angle, and carry away with them refreshing ideas that in the years to tenib )'ring forth frith. Of course, many of them would tt'.ver admit that they got the idea at the Coneition; but they got it some- ehere after they attended the Conven- tion for they never had it befoe.

Tho Music IThis year the music was provided by three distinct classes of students. 1. The Harmonica Band from the Junior Vocational School for Boys. These students have been termed "sub -normal" because they are not successful academic students; but they proved conclusively that pleas- ing musical produotion is not an ex - elusively academic accomplishment. 2. Choral Singing by Rural pupils from the Townships of Darlington and Clarke. The writer has heard no better singing at the Convention than that 'given by these rural pupils. They captured the audience complete- ly by the very unusual sweetness of their voices. their wonderful and well rantrollea harmony and time; and that elusive -something which touches the hearts of the listeners. • 8.

If anythina they were to cr re tranel, rad did not give the exhibi- tion of volume and of feeling that could very aroperly come from a group of healthy young girls. Public Speaking This part of the program was chief- ly notable for the strong criticism of the whole proceedings by Prof. O. J. Stevenson, of the 0. A. C. He said that the contests failed to make pub - speakers, becattse the i intests failed to develop the in4ividual talent of the speaker who frequently merely recited a speech which had been writ- ten for him or her, Prof. Stevenson made some extreme statements; but hi tha main Xis contentions were right and there should be some im- provement in the methods permitted in public speaking contests. While PC great popularity may be won by tbe Professor because of this candid criticism of public smoking contests, yet some good almuld be accomplished. Two suggeStions were madeby delegates in answer to Prof. Steven- son. One was that the Agricultural Representatives who are trained at the O. E. A., and who are largely re- snossible for public speaking contests at Rural School Um, be trained ta require that contestants put more of themselves into their atieeeliesia also that they oboe subjects with which thev are familiar.
