General Business, — Loagh, Houston and Plummer. Resolu- tione,—Doig, Musgrove and Clarkson. AFTERNOON SESSION. Delegate's Report. — \Ir. A. H. Plummer, delegate to the Dominion Convention held in Montreal from July 5sh to .J uly 8th, 1891, explained the origin cif this Association, and gave a general account of the woik t':hou up, giving a synopsis of the subjects dis- cussed by Hou. G. VT. Rues, Minister of Education, Mr. Inch; New Ilruns wick, Mr. McKay, Halifax, Mr. Sin- clair, I-Iemiltou, Mr. Martial'', Pennsyl- vania, Rev. Dr. Grant and others. , PRACTICAL TREATMENT OF ENGLISH. William Houston, M . A., Director of Teachers' Institutes, disoiIdsed the subject " Practical Treatment of Eug• lish," dealing with realiuo and writing He first described a child when enter- ing school and considers that a great deal of titue is wasted by under -rating a child'a knowledge. He maintains that a child cau express his ur her ideas in words before having received any public school training, but trust be taught to express them in different ways. Mr. Houston uses the phonetic method entirely, and cuusiders a teacher who sloes not use this method, a very inferior teas l,'i. In teaching a child to read he would always neo *Tull tenets, nut single welds, as we always think in sentences. He would also bogie with sutipt and would not ask a child to read print, until it be -far eno-igh advanced to read in the second part of the first book, thus discarding tato first part -of the that book entirely. tie would begin the subject writing as soon as the child commences school won k. "'The duties of citizenship" was taken by Mr. W. R. Lough, of Clinton, He introduced this subject by strongly maintaining that the amount of history Iequired at the various examinations is far too great, and recommended that it be reduced to such au extent :as to per- mit sufficient time to qualify the pa pile to become good citizens. Ile claims that they should cleanly uudorstaud Civil Government, Patriotism, Loyalty, and the principles of Free Trade, I'ro taction, Revenue tariff, etc. '1'o do this he would first' clearly show the mode of election, duties sinal re.apoosi bilities of the township council. An as pupils learn to du by doing, it is well to continence by calling the school house a municipality, and having them go through the actual performance of Nomination and Flection, the teacher acting as critic and guide. He treats each governing body similiary until he reaches the Federal Parliament, thus giving them a vivid and lasting impression of the duties of the various officials. Considerable discussion fol lowed by Musgrove, Doig and Mack. COMPOSITION. tVilliam lloueto'1, M. A,'Taunted hie discussion of the Practtcal Treat ment of English, dealing particularly with Composition. He considers that Composition and Grammar are directly opposite. Grammar is the eciouce of the sentence and is analysis; Compoti tion of synthesis, Original Composition should bo taught as soon as the child can write. Dictation is a good exer visa if the model be good; it trains the ear and eye, but the supplying of Ellipses, Mr. Houston does not approve , •e j ;. ; r th, ,lit ". a,i'nfeT,' WITHOUT crjAVIMS • 'FI IDE � ,i Y MARC e � 1' 14 11 •irk i' �"1;q' REM'A1 n't ,r,C,,fl.I�"c:Q;e�►, 8preinS, Bruise, Burris, Ov obit:,.

Compositiou exercises should he written iu a scribbler or other book for the purpose and should be ro-writteu, -with errors corrected. '!'his subject was further discussed by Messrs, 1;larkeon, Musgrove, Baker and Lough. The meeting thea adjourned uutil 9 o'clock a. m., on Friday. THURSDAY EVENING. On Thursday evening a publie en- tenet:i newt twee held ul the Town Hall. The programme eousisted of an address by \Ir. Houston, M. A, uu "Esthetic Treatmentef Englie!'." Musical eulec tiuus by the 1Viugholn Orchestra, and •esugs by the school pupils, Mr. Houstuu cuusiders the Esthetic value te"' Literature an important subject, as childieu should be able to discover and comprehend the beauties of liter attire and by this tneaus would uut b't so liable to read literature that would tend to be unprofitable. Ile illus-trat.- ed his lecture by the "Three Fishers,,, by Kingsley; anti "Break, Break, Ilrealc," by 'Tennyson. The music II selections by the Orchestra were de- s••rveslly :appreciated, while the songs by tilt) pnpila under the tuauagelueutof Miss Reynold, could not possibly be 'oo highly applauded. The chair was oecul,ied by \,Ly'. L'I:,ck,Prusideut of the Association. THE SECOND DAY. Tho Attendance at roll call the second day was 65. After routine proceed ings the Fivancisl Report was read and showed a b'tittuce ou hautl of $115.118. '!'his led to a lively dis cusaion by Messrs. Doig, lfoustou.

Hous- ton, Lough, Robb, Plutnmer and Scutt he empowered to collect the library, also to procure additional books to the amount of''ir75. It was further agreed that the library he kept in Clinton for the filet year at least; and that each member of the Association have access to the lit rary, also that all teachers tvho subscribe for the Educational Journal be considered members of the Association. ELECTION OF OFFICERS was the next ,order of business, and re• stilted as follows : President, W. R. Lough, Clinton ; First V ice•Pnesideut, M 188 Braden, Brussels ; Second Vice President, Miss Livau, Cliutcn ; Seere- tary•Treasurer, A. Scott, Seaforth ; Executive Committee, Messrs. Mos– grove, J. Moore, Houston, Hogg and M iss Day. Provincial Delegate, A. II. .11us;ruve. Auditors, Meseta. Mc- Taal and l.;ltukaon, lir. Doig was called upon, and in a sort of extem- porary address touched ou a few points in our educational system, explaining why lie thought so many teachers make teaching a mere stepping atone to some au called higher profession. His priu cipal tensor' was that the remuneration is inadequate. He then took up irregular attendance and distribution of school grants, and closed his address by showing why so many farmers' 8011s leave the farm. Ile claims that boys should follow the vocation for which nature intended theta. Corsiderable diecnssion followed by Clarkson and Mosgrove. SCIENTIFIC TREATMENT OF ENGLISiI. Mr. Houston than introduced his subject, entitled, "The scientific treat• Inset of Euglish." Grammar, lie says is the science of the sentence, and science the clasaitication of knowledge. lie would commence the study of granuuar iu the JuniorThird by taking the sentence, as it is the unit uf thought, first divide it into its essential elements, then claaaify the words, and finally arrive at a general conclusion, thus following the throe aueoee,ive steps of induction analysis, classitica• tion and gone:alizttiou. He next showed 1118 Method of treating the complex and compouud sentences. \1r. iloueton's lectures throughout were Interesting and instructive, and considerable valuable information was carried off by those who availed them• Selves of the opportunity of hearing hits. RESOLUTIONS. Tho following resolutions were passed : 1. In regard to the communication from the North York Teachers' Associa tion, that township councils appoint one or more persona to not as truant officers. Resolved that no action be taken. 2. Irl regard to the communication from West Huron Tenehers' Aseocation, respecting drawing books for entrance examination, that one book only he sent in. Wo are of the opinion that ono drawing book ie sufficient, but 3. That a vote of thanks he tender- ed the Public Senool Board for the use of their school building fur holding our meetings; to the 'Town Cuuici1 fur the free use of their hall fur the evens Itlg entertainment, stud to those 15ho took pert iu the entertainment and especially to the ecliGul pupils. 4. That the reporters of the proceed tugs of this meeting be paid fur their services, 5, That Canadian history, only, be the limit fur entl'8nce wink, and that a copy of this redolutiou he sent to the Ed Ira, tun Dela r men l,tothe Pioviucial and other Associations. On motion of Air. A. I1. Musgrove, seconded by Mr. Duig, the meeting adjourned to meet in Brussels at the call of the Executive Committee. O- A UNION OF TARIFFS. The grit party 18 row endoavuring to forget 110(1 cause other people to for• get that it ever advocated the comluur• tial uuiun of Canada and the United States. The other day Mr. 1),tvies indignantly protested against such a change being made. The cause of the indignation is obvious.. in the final of commercial uuiun the offensive feature of the Liberal policy, namely, its sevntwnce of the ties linking Eng• laud and Canada together, ite destruc• lion of our commercial independence and he 1.oudeucy quickly to make tie politically a part of the United States are more clearly uhauifested than when states] in the forte of Unrestricted Reciprocity. The i[onorable Ed. Blake as the result of, an exhaustive auul,ysis of Unrestricted Reciprocity, declared it to be identical with cow- tinrctal union. But, further, the plan was originally that of- Mr. hitt, an American polit.icen, who supplied the idea that waw eagerly adopted by the Liberal party. Mr. hitt, author of this sctienle, said: "What is commer• cial union with C'tusd t 1' It seems as set out iu this resolution, the adoption by both countries of precise' the carne tariff of duties or taxes to be levied upon goods coining frotn abroad; ab.olishines altogether our line of cus- toms houses on the north by which we collect tariff duties on goods corning from Canada; abolishing their custom houses along the same line by which they collect tariff duties upon goods the send into Canada; and leaving in tercourse as unrestricted between this tannin and Canada (,oda as it yis between the States. The line of custom houses would follow the sea and would in elude both countries." Such was each declarations oI the author of the policy. But surely Mr. Davies forgot that Air. Laurier, his leader, when speaking at the pavilion in To- ronto iu October 1889, declared for a uniform standard of customs and tariff duties. Nut only waathisso, but when the movement first appealed, and at the time when Sir Richard Cartwright siva years ago moved for the removal of duties on all manufactures and natural products of Canada and the United States passing from one country to the other, the Grit Areas of the county was full of denunciations of the customs line and of appeals for its abolition. On the slurup also, the abolition of custom houses was a theme upon which the Grit !introit grew elo (pent. In view of these well remem- bered facts, It would be astonishing to hoar, a utas of Mr. Davids' promin• encs that nommercial union had been the policy of the Grit party were it not that boldness and bounce are more conspicuous qualities in that gentle• man's utterances than accuracy. 41100009110 A Popular Competition.
