Nest Huron Teacher's
Association,
The West Huron Teachers' Associa-
on met in the Collegiate Institute,
Goderiob, pursuant to the oall of the
Executive Committee. S. J. A. Boyd,
President, in the chair.
The minutes of last meeting at Exe-
ter were read, and on motion of E. J.
Hagen, seconded by Inspector Tom,
adopted. '
The following committees were then
appointed by the President: -
Auditors -Messrs. Hagen and Brown,
Resolution Coinmittee-Messrs. Mc-
Donald, Howard and Baird, 11Jisses Robs
ertson and MoClusky.
Thos. G. Allin was oalled upon to
present the subject of teaching commer-
cial work to senior classes.
Mr. Allin gave a splendid address on
this subject, and his remarke were bigh-
ty appreciated. The question was fur-
ther discussed by Messrs. Tom, S. P.
Halls, Delgaty, Boyd, and Miss McLel-
lan .
The question in R. A. Gray's circu-
lar was then discussed by the teachers
in general, as were also topios of gener.
al interest.
11 was moved by Inspector Tom, sec-
onded by J. S. Delgaty, that iu the opin-
ion of this Association, arithmetic and
grammar should be replaced on the ex-
amination course for Junior and Senior
Leaving certificated, and that only one
language he required at these examine.
tions. The resolution was adopted.
The next topic of discussion was,
the care of children's eyes. Mr•. Tom
introduced the question and suggested
the following as the chief causes of ins
jury to children's eyes, viz.
(a) Small writing on the blackboard
and sitting in wrong positions.
(b) The blackboard not a proper
color.
(c) Studying with poor lamplight or
holding the book in improper position,
with reference to the light.
(d) Scribblers not good for the eyes.
(e) Pupils hold the books too near
the eyes.
(f) Pupils admitted to school too
soon after suffering from any disease
which has proved injurious to the eyes.
This subject was very ably discussed
by a large number of teachers.
The next topic of discussion was
whether it was advisable to retain both
the Entrance and P. S. Leaving exami-
nations or not. 'Phis subject was very
fully discussed by Messrs. Anderson,
Delgaty, Strang, Boyd and Brown.
Mr, Fred MoTeggart introduced a
discussion on teaching verb phrases.
Mr. McTaggart stated the difficulties he
had experienced in teaching this most
difficult point of grammar, instanced
his method of introducing this subject
to a class, and then lett the matter
open for further discussion. Mr. Strang
was called on, and dealt with the sub-
ject in his usual exhaustive style, to the
great satisfaction of the teachers.
Part one of the program consisted of
addresses by the following gentlemen :
Rev's. Edge and Godwin, Messrs. Jor-
dan, Ball, trusteea,of the High and Pub-
lic schools respectively and 1). McGilli•
cuddy. The president, Mr. S. J. A.
Boyd, occupied the chair and delivered
his annual address. Mr. Boyd's sub-
ject was, "Have Teachers any Inffuk,
ence or Professional Spirit Left?" The
address was a splendid effort and Mr.
Boyd was highly complimented by the
speakers that followed.
The following distinguished perform-
ers furnished the musical part of the
program, and their efforts were greatly
appreciated : Mrs. Logan, Mies Cam-
paigne, Miss McCall, Miss Whitney and
Mr. Stoddart.
Part two of the program consisted of
refreshments furnished by the teachers
of Goderich and their friends. We can-
not too highly commend the hospitality
and good will of the teachers and peo•
ple of Goderich of which the teachers of
West Huron have always enjoyed abun-
ant evidence. The committee, Messrs.
Halls and Grant and Misses Charles,
Burritt and Sharman, and those who
assisted them, deserve the highest
praise for the successful manner in
whioh they carried out the arrange-
ments to the enjoyment, comfort and
satisfaction of all.
The association met Saturday at 9 a.
m., the president occupying the chair.
Moved by A. J. Moore, B: A., secon-
ded by S. P. Halls, M. A., that the
minutes be adopted, and that the presi-
dent's address be, published in the
local papers and also in some papers or
magazines having provincial circulation
so that it may reach the great body of
teachers in Ontario. The resolution
was unanimously adopted.
Mr. Malcolm McDonald then very
ably discussed "Teaching Mathemati-
cal Geography." Mr. McDonald deliv'
erect an eloquent. and practical address
on this important subject. The man-
ner in which he dealt with this matter
would have a tendency to stimulate the
teachers to renewed interest and ener-
gy in this part of school work.
Mr. G. W. Iloiman then introduced
a discussion on the distribution of the
continuation grant and expressed his
disapproval of the method in vogue at
present. The question was further dis-
cussed by Messrs. Ilagen, Martin,
Brown and Tom.
Messrs. Martin, Allen and Delgaty
were added to the resolution commit-
tee.
It was moved by Mr. Johnston, secs
onded by Mr, Lawrence, that the Asso•
elation adopt the principal recom-
mendation in the President's address,
of dividing Lhe.inspectorate into a cer-
tain number of divisions, and in accord-
ance with' the above resolution the fol-
lowing committee was appointed toar-
range the details of such a division :-

proceeded with and resulted as fol-
lows :-

Vice•President-Miss C. A. Boyd,
Carlow.
Secretary -Treasurer -G. W. Idolman,

The resolutions presented by circular
from the Ontario Teachers' kssooiation
were then brought forward, discussed,
and several amendments made there•
to. --
Mr. 3. C. Martin discussed the case
of School helps. He was followed by
Mr. R. E. Brown. Both gentlemen dis-
cussed the question very fully and in-
telligently. Several of the teachers
took part in the discussion, and the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted by the
association.
Tliat this Association desires to call
the attention of the Minister of Educa•
tion to the extensive and increasing use

dence that the text books in many of
the subjects have been found by teach-

ed by each Association each year.

Mission from the county council to do

That this association desires to exs
press its strong regret that the Minister
of Education has not seen fit to grant
the public school teachers due repre-
sentation on the Educational Council,
and its conviction that no representa-

less the teachers are allowed to elect
their own representatives.
That we consider the regulations res-
pecting continuation classes unfair and
also such that it is possible to secure
a share of the grant without doing bona

quest the Minister of Education to
make the following changes in said regu-
lations.

The Live Stock Market.
TORONTO.
Toronto, May 27. -Receipts were
heavy at the western cattle yards tos
day, but not so heavy as they were last
market day. Including what were left
over from the beginning of• the week
and those which arrived yesterday there
were about 94 carloads on the boards,
counting 2200 hogs and about 200 sheep
and lambs. •
Export Cattle -The offerings were
too large for the demand and some of
the poorer cattle remained in the pens
at the close of the day. Space on board
ship is pretty well filled for a few days,
which gives buying a somewhat slow
tone. Prides ruled weak at from 4c to
4'�c per lb, some choice lots touching
$3.30 to 163,35 per cwt.
Butchers' Cattle -Demand steady and
prices firm at Bio for the best, a few
heads of fanny going up to 4c for ims
mediate killing. Common cattle are
slow of sale at from 30 to 310 per lb.
Good to medium stuff fetches about 31c
per lb.
Bulls -There was a fair demand_ for
these at prices ruling from $3.30 to
$3.60 per cwt for export. Feeding
bulls are practically not wanted,
Stockers and Feeders -There was an
active demand from Buffalo and prices
advanced slightly, going in some in-
stances up to 4o per ib. There is some
stuff being sold for feeding purposes
that was originally intended for killing.
'l'he ruling quotations for stockers for
the Buffalo market may be put at from
31 to no per Ib.
Sheep and Lambe -Small offerings
kept the market firm and last Tuesday's
figures rule mostly. Shipping sheep
fetch 5o to 51c per Ib fur yearlings and
31 to 4o for good sheep including ewes
and wearers, and 3o to 310 for bucks.
Spring lambs are steady at from 163 to
104 each,
Calves --Offerings and demand light.
Quotations rule from $2 to $5.50. Some
choice veals fetch a little higher,
Milch Cows and Springers -Dairymen
want a few cows of good quality. Prides
rule from $25 to $40 mostly, some choice
well forward springers going slightly
higher.
Hogs -Although offerings were fairly
heavy the market held firm at from $5
$5.10 per cwt for choice singers, weigh-
ed oft' the care. Light and thick fat
hogs sell for 4:1o. per lb, sows at 3 to 3'ic
and stags at 2 to 210 per Ib. There is
satisfaction expressed by dealers and
drovers at the additional accommodation
that has been provided in the new
weight-bouseand offices for tho hcg mar-
ket at the annex.
