-was a question depending on eondit,
ions, and that the superintendent
should have vigilance over the teach..
ers, and make a ohmage Where it is
deemed. necessary. The question,
"WhO should conduct the review, and
how," was dismissed' thoroughly by e,
number of the teachers; it was con,
eluded. that.the revievr should be den.
ducted by the different teachers, so as
to have •variety. The next speaker
Was Mr. Jackson, of Toronto; who aus-
wered questions and also gave 'some
useful points on "How to study child
life." • The next was Rev. Mr. thither -
