In the .afternoon the first address was given by Mr, Dearness, B. A,, on "Thought expression versusword pro- nouncing in elementary reading." The teacher's aim should be to enable his pupils to get control of the values of life. The value of oral reading is that it is a ineans of conveying thought. The best conditions under which read- ing may be taught are when a pupil reads some selection that he thinks worth while to an attentive, sympa- thetic audience, In order to read well the pupil must know the function and sound of each word. Mr. Dearness recommended the use of the word, or look and say method, with beginners. After a few words have been learned, the pupil should be introduced to sen- tences expressing simple thoughts, and then the study of phonics should .be proceeded with. Mr. Curtis gave a short address on. "The Teachers' Alliance" and a branch was formed for East Huron, with the following officers :—President, David Robb, B. A., I, P. S.; Vice -President, A, P. Gundry, B. A.; Secretary, John Hartley. Mr. Holrnan gave an address on our new Text Books. In the old Readers there were a great many heavy lessons which were useful for Literature les- sons. In the new Readers, the lessons are selected to be used for reading only, and in this respect they are superior. The mechanical construc- tion of the new Readers, with regard to print, spacing, etc., is such' as to leave nothing desired, and they will be a great boon to pupils with bad. sight, and in poorly lighted rooms. The speaker thought the books should be furnished with accounts of the authors and explanatory notes on the lessons. Of all the new text books, the epeller is the best, The copy books are an improvement on the old, but should cost a cent or two more and be made of better paper and have more guide lines. The Primer is an excellent book for pupils after they have been at school five or six months but there should be a book or tablets for pupils for these months, and these should consist of a mixture of the "look and say" method and the phonic method. Miss Padfield gave an inspiring talk on the "Advantages of Difficulties." She said :-The teacher does more or as/much in rendering helpful service to mankind, as any toiler in the Master's vineyard, and the work of the teacher is also beset with so many difficulties, but these difficulties should be a help not a hindrance, One dis- couragement the teacher meets, is the lack of appreciation of her work ; another, the censure of those she so faithfully tries to serve, and still another, the uncongenial environ- ment in which she finds herself. The lack of appreciation and the censure, she must endure bravely without apparent notice of it, She must create her own environment. A teacher should not be afraid of her own com- pany, but spend time in reading and reflection. If she has a fertile, re- sourceful mind, she will supply herself with a good environment. Each one controls the pleasure of his own soul, and can only lose them by his own fault. Inside himself he is master, and nothing can detract from his happiness, except his own foolishness, vanities or lack of self reliance. Only the savage is slave to his surround- ings, but the educated person, "If he wants a field of labor he can find it anywhere." Tho difficulties of our tasks should be an incentive to higher work. They • are conditions of our success. A life without them is de- prived of its possibilities of power. Let us endeavor to surmount them, that we may render good service to others, knowing that— "Though others now claim our chief regard, Ourselves, we wait our great reward'." The "At home" in the evening was, a most enjoyable function. With Mr, John Hartley in the chair, the follow- ing programme was rendered :—In- strumental, Mr. McDonald ; song, Miss Griffin ; song, Mr. Hill ; Instru- mental, Mrs. (Rev.) Steeves song, Mr. Cline ; duet, Mr. Cline and Mr. Hill. These were interspersed with a number of short addresses. At the close of the programme, Mr. Kennedy served refreshments, On Friday morning, after devotional exercises by the presiding officer, the following officers were elected :—Pres- ident, Mr. Chas. Holland ; let Vice - President, Mr, J. A. Taylor, B.A. ; 2nd Vice -President, Miss Sarah Pad- field ; Executive Committee --Misses Harding and Simpson, Messrs, G. Hol- man, A. Scott and A. E. Easteott ; Sec. -Tress,, Mr. John Hartley ; Audi. tors --Messrs. W. E. Fair and 0. E. Dowding, The treasurers report, showing a balance of $$4.33, was then read and adopted. Miss Simpson gave a paper on "The Teacher's Responsibility," The teach- er's responsibility is of the highest kind. The teacher should be teach- ing not because circumstances point that way, but beenuso he loves his work, The teacher should be a wide reader. opportunities to influence children are given to teachers more than others, except mothers, The teacher should be careful of school prorerty, and teach the pupils to be neat aril eareful with lb also. •. The business of the teacher is not to teach only, but to lend his pupils to higher living, He should make his Influence felt in the neighborhood for good, and should stand in friendly relationship with his inspector and trustees. Miss Simpson's paper was anexcellent one. Miss McCamus gave a most excel- lent talk on "Art" for which the teachers of East Huron are very grate. fu. •A discussion was opened and Miss MoOarnus asked the assembled teach- ers to give their views, or present their difficulties in the work., She then proceeded to the order of work: lst—pencil colour, different mediums, decorative art, and constructive work, The pencils used in the pencil work are the Venus, H,B. and 1513,, the lat. ter is used in shading and gives a very fine effect. The objects used as models are the sphere, hemisphere, ellipsoid, ovoid, cylinder, prism and cone. For the colour work, a board must be used to which the paper is fastened. The work must be mounted when compleded in order to keep it in good order. The first work in colour is the study of the Spectrum—the primary, the secondary and the tertiary colours. After the different .colours have -been learned, proceed to simple landscapeb requiring the use of two shades, then the use of three then follows the sketching from sprays, the `rose leaf, a spray of ivy. After this decorative art is studied the principles of design are rhythm, harmony and' balance. Mr. Smith,. B.A., then gave an ad- dress on "History" which he defined as the summary of human knowledge. It is the record of all that man has accomplished. The law of History is good for the good, and bad for the` bad. The value of History is the verifying of historical facts. It gives a person the proper training for real life. It enlarges the mental horizon. It is for time what travel is for space. The study of History makes a good citizen. It arouses 'patriotism. Mr. Smith's paper was rousing and patri- otic; and received a hearty vote of thanks from the convention. • Mr. Dearness opened his excellent lecture on "Synthetic Composition" with the question "What is the high- est single test of an education?' In former times the answer would have been "To read Greek at first sight or read Latin 'verse." Themore modern answer is "To express one's ideas in orderly procedure." The ancient mot to in education used to be "To know" the modern is "To 'do." Composition for many years was very pcor]y taught but much more attention is given to it in recent years. He read a composition written by a pupil in the Entrance class of the P. S. He showed that the pupil had no plan, his ideas 'ere not arranged in orderly procedure. The best composition is the one written by a pupil who has something which he is delighted to write, and knows he have have a sym-,. pathetic hearing. Composition is of two stages : 1 --The mental-mcchani- cal; 2—The Rhetorical. These are used in the different forms. The aim of composition in the first stage is the improvement of the child's usage in arrangement and vocabulary, and the approved form of writing short origi- nal sentences and paragraphs, The means to bring about the develop- ment of the aim is -1, Cbfrversation with the teacher; 2, continuous, oral statement ; 3, verbal analysis of sen- tence ; 4, examination of mechanical form of the sentence and paragraph ; 5, transcription ; 0, writing short com- positions of two or three paragraphs to be corrected. The aim in the Rhe- torical stage is -1, To acquire skill in the orderly arrangement of ideas ; 2, 40 acquire refinement and effective- ness of expression. The means to de- velop this stage are -1, Abundant practice in continuous oral statement; 2, study of examples for imitation and criticism ; 3, how to criticize; 4, habits of self criticism. There are four dif- ferent styles of Composition -1, De- scriptive ; 2, narrative ; 3, expository ; 4, argumentative. A few guides for developing a good composition are -1, Let them gather knowledge ; 2, sup- plement that acquired knowledge ; 3, arrangement of headings for orderly procedure in paragraphs. The four points for a good composition are— Collection, selection, connection and perfection. A vote of thanks was tendered Mr. Dearness, of London Normal Skhool, for his two excellent addresses. lb The committee on resolutions then brought in the following report which was adopted :- 1—Resolved that the thanks of this Association be tendered the Wingham High School Board for the use of their most commodious building. 2—Resolved that the thanks of this Association be tendered the Public School staff of Wingharn for the ex- cellent program' of the "At Home." 3—Resolved that the thanks of the Association be tendered all those who assisted with the program of our con- vention. 4 --Resolved that the Education de- partment be requested to prepare for use in Public Schools an introduction book or set of tablets to the present Primer, as it is considered too ad- vanced for beginners. 5—Resolved that the sympathy. of this Association be tendered to the family relatives of the late Miss Dad - son and to the Wingham High School staff in their bereavement. The Convention adjourned to meet in Clinton next year, Great Danger In Headaches. It's often dangerous to consider headache a trifling ailment. If the head aches, the stomach is out of or- der and some Serious disease' may be impending. To tone np the stomach, to give ib healthy action, nothing in modern medicines' is so successful as Dr. Hamilton's Pills. The concentret- cd vegetable extracts in Dr. handl, ton's Pills have it quieting healthful effect en the "Rtomaeh and remove all disorders., Your headache will be cured and they won't return` if you Use Dr, Hamilton's Pills. Sold every- t"lwhero, Reeve Of Greenock Killed. Qn. Friday, October IGth, Mr. A. 0. McKee, reeve of Greenock Twp„ was accidentally killed, While running a circular saw at his mill about two miles from Pinkerton, a ernali pleee of wood flew oft and struck hire on the side of the neck. At first there seemed to be no danger although the neck began swell. However the tew swelling continued, and he died about 3 o'clock. Mr. McKee had served many years in the township council both as councillor' and reeve. He was chairman of the road and bridge com- mittee of Bruce County Council, Beautiful Hair Makes The Plainest Fare Irresistibly Attractive, Any woman can have beautiful and luxuriant hair by using Parisian Sage, the great hair tonic and,dandruff cure.
