"Ir Canada fails us in October, we must curtail many of our activities."
Sir ARTHUR STANLEY, Chairman, hxecative Committee, British Red Cross,
It now costs $300,000.00 a week to carry on the work of the British Red Cross, or
$16,000,000.00 a year.
Every minute of the day and night it costs $30 to minister to the sick and wounded
and dying,
Last year Ontario's magnificent contribution paid for the entire work of the British Red
Cross for nearly six weeks.
This year, in view of the greater need, it is earnestly and confidently hoped that Ontario's
contributions will be as great proportionately as the magnificent offering of last year,

Mr. Treleaven, principal of Clinton
Oollegiate, told a very interesting
story of his experiences in school
both as a student and a teacher and
mentioned some of the changes be has
noted.
The members of the Institute con.
'tittered themselves specially favored in
in having with them Dr. Silcox, who
ow -ideated a very helpful conference on
'The Problem of Tiine," By, cower.
ing the present course of etudy with
that of thirty years ago, Dr. Silcox
endeavored to show that there is no
real ground for the common complain,
among teachers of lack of time, In
hie opinion the real reason is a lack
of knowledge of child mind, lack of
• ffeot, and general inability to save
time. Spelling, Arillnnetic and Gram-
mar usually receive more time than
they should, The greatest waste of
time in rural schools is at the seats, and
non-attendance, Dr, Siloox'e answer
to the question,"How can time beecon.
omizod in rural and urban schools?
is as follows. (a) by punotuaiily and re
guilty attendano; (b) by having fewer
divisions and better grading; (c) by
good preparation; (5) by limiting the
finis for a specified amount of work
(e) by adopting more celinite standard,
(f) by grouping pupils; (g) by making
sure that pupils are equal to the work
required
The Institute then adjourned to moot
at 1.15 p, m.
Friday Afternoon

mittee was received and adopted, being
an follows. Resolved;
That we grant $5.00 to the 0.•E, A
That we contribute the . sum of $200

That with reference to 'the teaching

demands in this subject,
