A great treat was enjoyed last Wed- nesday evening by the young people pf Brick Church Epworth League, when in response to their invitation, a number of enthusiastic workers of the Wingharn Epworth League came to visit them. After the visitors had received a cordial welcome, Miss Fes- sarit, President of the Wingharn Ep- worth League, opened the meeting with a few genial and fitting remarks, and proceeded with an appropriate, interesting and profitable program, consisting of a reading by Miss Walk- er ; solo by Mr. Guest ; an address on the subject of "True education" by Miss Brock ; sacred solo by Miss Campbell, and an address by Mr. Walter Halt in which he urged the young people to activity of the highest and noblest kind. A half hour was then allowed for sociability, during which lunch was served. The young people then closed their very enjoyable meeting by singing "God be with you till we meet again." The Winter months usher in those long monotonous days of which the farmers have so dread. The modern farmer cannot realize, however the terrible loneliness experienced by their forefathers when they were cut off almost entirely from communi- cation with the outside world, But now that newspapers find their way into almost every home, all that is changed, as through this great boon the farmer is enabled to keep in touch with all events of interest that tran- spire throughout Canada and the whole world. The daily paper which has found most favor in the hearts of the people of Canada is The News, Toronto, which you can have mailed to you daily for a whole year for One Dollar.

The pupils are in excellent standing, school and pre- mises are so well kept that it quite well deserved the name of "The Best" in this inspectorate.

Arrangements are being made to have the interior of this school freshened up by the painter's brush at Easter holidays. The aver- age attendance for Jan. was 53.5. The following is a short extract tak- ing from Inspector Robb's report to County Council and speaks deserved- ly well for teacher and pupils of S. S. No. 4 :—Mr. Robb apparently approves of the system of teaching by love and getting the good will of the pupils, not ruling by fear as in former days. Ile says, "Now all this is changed, all appeals are made to the reason, love of approbation and self respect of the pupil, instead of to fear and flogging. No physical pain is inflicted for in- ability to learn, and I believe in many schools Corporal punishment 18 not in- - flitted once a year, Indeed some of my schools are nowt self governing committees with a guide in the person of the teacher. In one instance, No. 4 Grey, this is so completely carried out that the teacher has left discip- line, order, preparation of lessons, nailing and dismissing school to the pupils, who attend to these matters through other representatives. The pupils have also also purchased a library, flag and other necessary school helps. I Can certify to the complete success of the experiment. A similar training of the will, al- though not in the same form, is car- ried out in Nos. 2 and 3, Tackersrnith, No. 5 Morris end No. 3 Mullett. The pupils ar© trusted, and they show themselves worthy of that trust. y _1 Are you independent or have you a boss? Cfet out of slavery atel be free, Write G.
