ON TIIE EVE and day of the 24th
several horses attached to buggies
could hardly bo'restrainod by their

fire cracker's by the boys, and it was
almost miraculous that runaways
with possible loss of life were pre-

and ho made the situation a four-
handed one by doubling up on the
linea with the driver in order to
pull up the excited,, plunging
animal.

THE Oro 'Polus. -We 1ptve re-
ceived from the publishers a 28
page illustrated pamphlet of Goder-
ich past nntl present. While the
sine of utlto:ir:iJf oro many those of
coutmissiun are few in the getting
up of the little work. It is fairly
creditable to the publishers from a
mechanical and typographical point
of'view, in fact to our mind it is
fully alt that the public could
#easonably expect for the money
paid thein; It is in no carping
spirit that we venture to say we
are not so clear about its literary
merit. But in this every day
practical world business and liter-
ary art cannot, unfortunately, always
go profitably hand in hand. Being
as we are and have been ever from
the days.of boyhood's young diets a,
and even previously, t;ntit'itately
associated with the els town of
Goderich, we maybe p.pssessed pf a
sentimental feeling towlirds it that
fails to find the fullest; treasure of
gratification in the neat' little; pub-
lication wo aro now alluding to,
It may be our fault that` wo cannot
appreciate the descriptive patter
with the enthnsiaem ft d6'sorves.
This may be owing to the e4treme-
ly high ideal we had forinedof the
natural beauty of the tosirn, its
interesting historical and pleasant
social reminiscences. However this
may he we are really pleased at
what has been given in that direc-
tion. Its publication at this „time
of the meeting of the light
Worshipful Orange Soverign
Grand Lodge of British • Narth
America there is quite opportune,
and will' give the 300 or so dele-
gates from all parts of the Domin-
ion some ideas which, combined
with those gathered from personal
observation, and the hospitality of
the people, that we feel assured
they will receive, will add pleasur
able zest to their visit and possibly
enure to the future welfare of the
old town from a business outlook.

EAST IHURON TEACHERS'
INSTITUTE.
The annual meeting was held in
the assembly room of the Clinton
Coll. Inst. on 'Thursday end Friday
of last week.
FIRST DAY.
Mr. Grant opened the meeting
with prayer. In the absence of the
president, Mr. Dorrance, Head
Master Turnbull was appointed
hereto. IIe thanked the members
or the honor conferred upon him,
nd cordially welcomed them to the
off. Inst. of the town. 'I'Ite following
omtnittees were appointed :
Reporting : Messrs. Blackwell,
ickson, Stuart and Burchill.
Resolutions: Messrs. Robb, John -
ton, Dickson and Misses McKay and
owitn.
General Business : Messrs. Groves,
lummer, Scott, McGregor, Turnbull.
.Vominations: Messrs.. Burchill,
oig, Malloch and Misses. Peke and
'impson.
Com.to examine Treasurer's hooks,
flesers. Robb and Lough.
Mr. J. Dearness, 1. P. 5., East
Middlesex, introduced the subject :
"'rho Elementary Rules in Arith-
etic.'' IIe spoke of the great value
placed on the subject in former years
011e dwelt on the changes that have
fecently taken place in the teaching
fit it. "The logic of the schoolroom,"
rlr has been called by Dr. McLellan.
In teaching numbers he placed great
stress on associating ideas with them.
this end he showed some inter-
.esting ways of using chalk, buttons,
'pebbles etc ; teaching with a variety
of such objects is better than the
constant use of the numeral frame.
Addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division by merely using such
simple objects • as sticks. 'l'he most
intricate processes in these opera•
tion were explained and tests for
correct multiplication by all the
dijits were illustrated. The old•
fashioned addition tables were exam-
ined and another method ensuring
rapidity as were as accuracy was pre•
rented.
In rapid addition,_,teachers should
concentrate their teaching on the
endings, then the tens, then the
hundreds &c. in the second hook
the class should be able' to combine
two numbers in the time occupied
by the swinging for the pendulum.
After this address Mr. Malloch called
the Roll, and it was learned that a
large proportion of the teachers of
the Inspectorate, were present.
-see Robb, Math. Master, Clinton
Coll Inst., gave an interesting ad-
dress on Botany. As an old public
school teacher he counselled teachers
to take up some subject as geology
or botany which was not taught in
the public school. The teacher who
chose the latter would find himself
amply repaid when he conies to
illustrate the lessons in the Readers.,
Besides, there are times when the'
class becomes listless, often owing.
to the condition of the atmosphere
or for other reasons, and a short
talk on some topic in botany will
prove both interesting end instruc-
tive. The teacher who by means
of pocket lens, needles, knife and a
suitable text book uses his spare
moments in the prosecution of the
study of botany will train his observ-
ing faculties, will gain a great amount
of useful information and thus be in
a position to admire the beauties of
nature and add more enjoyment to
the school life of the children. Mr.
Robb's address was characteristic of
him. The quaint humor with which
he satirized some personal habits
of the students brought out much
laughter.
Mr. Lough, Prin. Clinton Model
School, read a paper on history. He
discussed the subject generally,
its value as an educative force, and
gave valuable suggestions on the use
of text books. We shall not sum-
marize it as it will likely be publish-
ed in tell in the county press.
In the evening a public meeting
was held in the town hall at which
Mr. Manning, chairman of the Clin-
ton Collegiate Institute Board, presi-
ded. In accordance with the rules
of the Association the 'teachers had
prepared a suitable programme for
the evening entertainment. On this
occasion their labors were crowned
with abundant success. The program.
me was of an enlivening character
and the universal testimony was
that the evening was pleasantly
spent by the large audience that
filled the town hall. The order was
excellent, and the children behaved
remarkably well. A class of boys
and . girls tinder Miss Struthers'
direction sang sweetly and patheti.
cally "The Old Kentucky fIenle."
Miss helyar's class- of girls dressed
in white, decorated with garlands or
flowers and carefully graded RS to
height, gave the .kindergarten song
" Away Among tilt Blossoms " with
good effect. Misses Maggie McMur•
ray and Linnie Irwin rendered
" Silver Belle of Memory " s,veetty.
Mr. Dearneas gave an interesting
addres. The tableau of the May
Queens in which Miss McMurray was
the regal flgur.s, displryed much
taste in arrangement on the part of
Miss O'Neil, and was well executed
by the class. :Tele solos by Mr. J.
Jackson and the duets by Miss
Gregg and Mr. T. Jackson, and by
Miss Sibley and Mr. B. P. Sibley, re•
speetively, were rendered in the
way for which these vocalists are
noted, and were heartily applauded.
The Clinton brass quartette played
the "Chimes" in perfect harmony.
The Fan Drill by the Misses M.
Paisley, Dottie Fair, E. Chidley,
Dottie Fair, M. Biggart, M. Kerr, A.
Howson, N. Cotnbe, II. Irwin, M.
Couch, A. Cantelon, and W. Shep-
herd, under the management of Miss
Heylar, was one of the best features
of the evening, and to many was a
novelty. The proceeds at 10 cts.
admission was $30.
Second days proceedings and other
matters in this connexion will be
given next. week.

sprouts are issuing, some to the

Since the School Board has been
abolished it is expected , that
.jigmondville will try to secure in-
corporation as a village. As the
rest of the township has previously
borne the bulk of the taxes of Eg-
mondville this will be a great relief
to them.
PICNIC. -The picnic in Mr. 0.
Fowlers grove on the 24th was a
g.teat success. A large crowd turned
out despite the not very promising
weather, A pleasant time was
spent in swinging, base ball etc.
A splendid repast was served by the
ladies, to which all did justice.'
Tug BY -LAW. -A poll was taken
on the by -lay to abolish the town-

Mr. John McCartney and wife,

guests of Mr. Robert Mcllwain
for a day or two of last week.
Wo think the oorresspondent to

about when he has to meddle with
other people's affairs and the editor
is as bad to print such trash in his
paper.
The 24th was kept by the major-
