,Has Robb, Wiugham, District
Name, very nicely , outlined the
"Health Conditions in the Schools."
Sehoel is the proper sphere to teach
and chew pis its the necessity for bet-
ter health. How pupils are greatly
handicapped that are laboring under
abnormal conditions and how these
conditions can be overcome to a great
extent were dwelt upon.
"The Teaching of Arithmetic" was
given by Dr. Field. It is taught for
two reasons, namely: the practical
and the educational, but both sides
have been overdone. Too much
arithmetic is being taught and not -
practical enough for the various pro-
fessions pupils may choose in life„
More mental arithmetic is needed to
SEAFORTH, Friday, October 20th- train pupils to think and work out
problems more rapidly and accurately.
Do not discourage pupils with cum-
bersome questions and have scholars
understand questions before attempt-
ing to work them.
The subject of "Practical Work in
Geography" given by Mise Taylor,
Brussels, was very interesting. Work
in teaching this subject should be
moreP ractl al
c both for indoor and
outdoor lessons. Map drawings in
Geography are very important, prop-
er proportions, correlation of Art and
Geography were emphasized.
Fred Fowler, Seaforth, gave a
paper on, "Are We Training Good
Citizens?" He widely outlined the
various ways whereby the teachers
can do much in character -building for
the youth of our country, to overcome
some of the corruptions that are
springing up in the various walks of
life. To teach less and have pupils
stand more upon their own initiative
was his idea.
"Primary Reading" was introduced
by Mrs. Dora Holmes, Brussels.
Word and symbol should be taught
when possible; effect of older pupils
on beginners in the way of reading;
get pupils interested in the subject
by the use of pictures, story writing
and the oral reading by Teacher. The
use of nursery rhymes, memory gems
and dialogue forms enable pupils to
become more interested in reading.
The following resolutions were read
and adopted: That a hearty vote of
thanks he extended to the people of
Brussels for their hospitality and for
the welcome which they, through
their representative, extended to the
teachers.
To those, who, through their un-
stinted efforts, have made this Con-
vention a very interesting and in-
structive gathering.
To the Trustees, Principal, staff and
students of Brussels school for their
work in making this session a success
and delight.
To those who gave willingly of
their talents for the entertainment of
the members of the East Huron Teach-
ers' Association.
To the officers, for the able fashion
in, which they carried on the work
of the past year.
Meeting then adjourned to meet
next year in Blyth.

EAST HURON TEACHERS'
CONVENTION
The 49th annual convention of the
East Huron Teachers' Institute was
• held in the Town Hall, Brussels,
Thursday and Friday, October 12th
5
and 13th. It was attended by l..na
teachers and a goodly number of
Trustees and ratepayers. Gordon
Jefferson was President.
Opening devotional exercises were
conducted by Rev. C. F. Clarke, Meth-
odist pastor, followed by an address
'a of We(come by the same reverend
gentleman, owing to the absence of
Reeve Raeker. A hearty welcome
was extended to the teachers while in
Brussels.
Records of the last Convention were
read and adopted.
The following Committee were then
appointed: Nominating, Miss Eliza-
beth Ford, Mr. Fowler and Mr.
Sloman; Resolution Committee, Miss
Mary Potter, Mr. Bisbee and Mr.
Coates.
Report from the O.E.A. was given
by A. L. Posliff, Wingham, in which
he outlined the most important items
from the various papers given. The
inspirations received by those who at-
tended such a meeting are very bene-
ficial. The Social Life of England
was given by Mr. Fair, a professor
from Englund, who is here in ex-
change with a Canadian teacher.
Rural life, Consolidation, school books
and grants were also touched upon
briefly.
Dr. Field, Goderich, spoke on the
following questions: Grants for
school libraries, grants for teaching
agriculture, school clubs, Junior
Red Cross, League of the Empire,
lntrim certificates, Urban grants and
annual reports.
Next paper was given by Rev. Mr.
Chandler, Walton, in the absence of
Ashton Morrison, on the subject of
Community Work. The various ways
and means, whereby a teacher, can
make his or her influence felt as a
stepping stone to further community
work in the way of training our
youths for better citizenship were out-
lined. A hearty discussion was en-
tered into by many of the teachers
at the close of the paper.
T. G. Shillinglaw, Seaforth, came
next and spoke on the subject of "40
years of Teaching." He briefly
brought out some of the vast differ-
ences in the two systems -that of 40
years ago with that of the present.
Teaching as a profession, why choose
same and why leave it in a few years
was discussed. One sees the fruits of
his labors after many years of con-
tinuous and well devoted time in the
teaching profession.
"Correlation of . Composition and
Grammer," by T. E. Clarke, London
Normal School, was brought out very
clearly. The origin of Grammar in
the various grades was spoken of.

Died In Saskatchewan. -The Kinis-
tino paper gives the following account
of. the death of one known to many in
this district, and a cousin of Mrs.
Walter Rogerson, of this township:
"There died at her home in Kinistlno,
Sask., on Friday, Sept. 29th,Mrs.
Isabella Eaplen, aged 37 years, Nur
months and 10 days, the cause of her
death being bronchial pneumonia.
Seldom has it been our duty to re-
cord so sudden a death. A dark
gloom spread over the entire com-
munity, when it was whispered that
Mrs, Esphen was gone. Mrs. Esphen's
illness was of a brief duration, last-
ing only three days, seemingly with
us to -day, active in life's _round of
duty and love, and gone to -morrow.
Among us all she ranked always as
a woman of sympathy, a kind neigh-
bor and a devoted mother. Besides
her husband, whom she leaves with
four children to mourn her loss, is an
aged father, Mr. W. L. Dunlop, and
four brothers: William, Charles,
Blain and Robert. The funeral ser-
vices were held at the grave with
Rev. W, A. Osborne officiating, on
Saturday, Sept. 30th. Mr. Osborne
paid beautiful tribute to the deceased
one. The casket was covered with
many beautiful floral designs. The
.singing of the beautiful hymn "Jesus
Lover of My Soul," brought thoughts
of the departed to the memory and
but few eyes were dry.
EGMONDVILLE
Death of Mrs. George Laidlaw. -
Another familiar figure has passed
away in the person of Mrs. George
Laidlaw, whose death occurred at her
home in F.gmondville on Sunday fore-
noon, October 15th, those of her fam-
ily who are near by being with her
at the time of her death, Mrs. Laid -
law's maiden name was Mary Mc -
Ewing. She -was born in Scotland.
July 23rd, 1837, and came to this
country with her parents when six
years of age, her mother's maiden
name being Agnes Manson, sister of
the late David Manson, of Egmond-
ville. When the family came to this
country they settled in Flamboro
Township, where they remained for
about one year, after which they
moved to Tuckersmith and bought lot
12 on the sixth concession, which was
.mostly bush at that time. Her father
died when the family was young but
her mother and one brother, James`,
continued to live on the farm until
about 35 years ago. Mrs. Laidlaw
had three sisters: Mrs. Colin Fergu-
son, Mrs. Samuel Gates and Agnes,
who died in Louisiana, over fifty years
,ago, when a little over twenty years
of age. She also had four brothers:
Hugh, Samuel, James and David Me -
Ewing and one brother died When'
crossing the ocean from Scotland and
was buried at sea. Her brother, Jas.,
who at one, time was a Member of
Parliament died in Drayton, four-
teen months ago, leaving Mrs. Laid-
law the last member of the family.
She married George Laidlaw on June
16th, 1865, and went to live on Lot
5, sixth concession of Tuckersmith,
where she continued to live until her
family of five sons and five daugh-
ters had all grown up, got married
and scattered to homes of their own.
after which she moved from the farm
into Egmondville, which was nearly
thirteen years ago. Since that time
she has continued to live in the same
house until the time of her death,
this being the same house that her
mother lived in for several years dur-
ing the latter part of her life. Mr.
Laidlaw died May 12th, 1902, at the
age of 78, but the members of the
family are: Mrs. John Smith, of
Hullett; Mrs. Robert Doig, of Tucker -
smith; Mrs. Neil Grant, of Cabri,
Sask.; James and Robert, of Sacra-
mento, California; David and Samuel,
of Cupar, Sask., and William George,
of Glenwoodville, Alta. The eldest
daughter, Mrs. William Williams,
(Agnes), •died in California over 20
years ago, also the youngest daugh-
ter,. Mrs. .Wm. Wright, (Isabella),
died August 9th, 1903. During the
last twenty years ,or so of her life
she had visited in the northwest of
Canada three tunes and twice in Cali-
fornia. She has had her trials in
life, coming to this country when it
Was mostly bush and when married
went to live on a farm which was
largely bush. There she toiled hard
and brought up her fancily of ten.
She cared for her mother and husband
through long spells of illness, also
Mrs. Win. Wright, was with her dur-
ing her last sickness and death. But
she never was discouraged nor cast
down, but always hopeful, never a
frown, hut always a smile; never
cross, but always cheerful; not easily
disturbed, but believing that God rules
and all is well. While not the oldest
inn -years, she was the oldest member
4f Eg nondville Church, and two years
ago 3lle'was given the honor of laying
the corner stone of the new'chancel
tri the church, such an honor seldom
falling to the lot of an woman. She
has always been a regular attendant
et church since coming to the village.
If in health she usually attended both
morning and evening service,•as well
as afternooni
B ole Class and mid-
week prayer meeting, often going to
church when the inclemency of the
weather kept many younger people
at home, and spent much time on Sun.

Thank -Offering Service, -A very
fine thank -offering service was held
in St, Andrew's Church last Sunday
morning. Members of the society
forrited the choir and sang after the
offering, "Christ Will Be Conqueror,"
a missiotary hymn written by Miss H.
Isabel Graham, of Seaforth. Each
of the officers of the society gave a
short resume of the work of her de-
partment and of the progress made
by the;`lucal society in that special
depar'tnient in the year. Mrs. Fin-
layson, President, spoke of the big
work. £hi' 88,360 members and their
contriby•ti�ons last year of $347,916.93
and.hbttt" this helped to build and
maintain schools, school homes and
hospitals and to support nurses, doc-
tors, teachers, -deaconesses, Bible wo-
men and evangelists among newcom-
ers in sur own land and in five
foreign lands. Miss Jean McLean,
secretary, gave a fine report of the
activities of the local auxiliary. Mrs.
Mustard, treasurer, spoke of Kippen
Auxiliary's contribution to the big
work Ia, t year and gave a 'clear
statemedt:of.their standing this year
so far. Then very interesting reports
were given as follows: Strangers',
Mrs, Kyle; press, Mrs. Monteith; Sup-
ply, Mrs: J. B. McLean; Home Help-
ers, Mrs. W. Cooper for Miss Alex-
ander; Messenger, Mrs. J. A. McGre-
gor. The latter announced that Mes-
senger subscriptions must be in before
November tat, and stated that she
would be glad to receive subschiptions
for the new paper, "Central India
Torch." The speaker for the day was
Miss Agnes M. Rennie, of New Ham-
burg, President of Stratford Presby-
terial and also Provincial Mission
Band Secretary. Her earnest and
enthusiastie address will long remain
in the minds and hearts of her hear-
ers and will result, there is no doubt,
in renewed enthusiasm and consecra-
tion. The offering for the day was
$70.00, but this will likely .be raised
to 1
00 as it is veryrarely el that all
1
Y
the ov
envelopes come in on the one day,,.
The allocation made us by the Finance
Committee of the Presbyterian is $335
for the year. This includes our share
in money to the work of the big so-
ciety
ociety and ala our fair share of the
deficit the society is laboring under
on account in the past few years of
the high rate of exchange. It is the
earnest desire of -every woman that
we may not only measure up to our
responsibility, but go beyond.
Notes,< -During her stay in Kippen,
Miss• Rennie was the guest of Rev,
and Mrs, Lundy. After the service

Main Street Pavement -Our busi-
ness men are looking forward an-
xiously to the completing of the pav-
ing of our Main Street as the neces-
sary shutting off of the street has a
tendency to hurt business for the
time. But we are pleased to report
that the street on the west side of
the railway track, as well as the rail-
way crossing part, will be thrown
open for traffic either on Saturday of
this week . or the first of next week,
and splendid headway is being made
on the east side of the track. By the
end of this week there is likely to be
only one more block to complete, and
much credit is being given to the con-
tractors, The Hamilton Paving Co.,
for the manner in which they are
pushing on the work to completion,
ably assisted by a good force of our
local men and our teamsters as well
as the farmers in the surrounding
districts have rushed in the gravel in
fine shape, from the pit. Mr, Alfred
Taylor, Inspector of the laying of the
cement, is winning golden opinions
for the careful and efficient manner
in which he is guarding the best'in-
terests of the village. Mr. J. W. Ort-
wein and Mr. Fred Busch have also
rendered good service in looking af-
ter the preparation of the street for
the laying of the cement, and besides
splendid workers Mr. R. Cudmore,
Mr. James Priest and Mr. Harry
Smith have been doing a No. 1 work
on the particular parts such as the
curbing and finishing off of the
cement. The Hamilton Paving Staff
are so well knowp as experts in the
different departments of the work as
to need no special mention on our
part.
A Fire Victim, -on Thursday even-
ing of last week the remains of the
late Stewart Mitchell, late of Toms -
town, New Ontario,' were received
here by his father, Mr. John A. Mit-
chell, and son-in-law and sister, Mr.
and Mrs. Fred Kennings, and the
funeral was held from the home of
-Mr. Kennings on Saturday forenoon
last the remains being interred in the
Hensall Union Cemetery. The de-
ceased was quite a young man in his
34th year and was married, his wife
at, the time of his death being in the
Old Country, He was one of the
many who lost their lives in the great
fire which swept over New Ontario
a couple of weeks or so ago and while
no particulars have been learned of
the manner in which he was burnt,
his body was so much marred by the
fire that the casket could not be open-
ed here when it arrived, a note being
sent with the remains which were in
a sealed casket, and it was certainly
very sad for the bereaved Father
and sister who are here and who
have the sympathy of all in their sad
bereavement, The funeral sermon
was given by Rev, Mr. Naylor, of St.
Paul's Anglican church, who spoke
very feelingly of the sad event, em-
phasizing the thought of how the
Scriptures said: "Two will be in the
field together; the one will be taken
and the other left," and how uncer-
tain life is.
