These recommendations of the man- agement committee were adopted : That seven numeral frames, on stands, be purchased for the publie schools, at a cost of $28. That the list of supplementary read- ing books, as submitted by the in- spector, be purchased for the public schools, at a cost of $150. That the request of Miss Ada Bates that her pupils be permitted to attend the domestic science department, be complied with only when the inspec: tor reports. that room is available, the attending pupils to pay a fee equal to the cost of the material and gas they use while under instruction. Your committee, having received power to act, appointed Mrs. Annie Robinson, of Owen Sound, to the va- cancy on the public school teaching staff, at an initial salary of 2400, Your committee appointed the fol- lowing members of the Victoria school teaching staff, to do special work in connection with the model school : Art, Miss Cannem; music, Miss Bureau; nature study, Miss Hoppin. Remuner- ation, $25 each. Your 'committee has under considera- tion the necessity for additional pub- lic school accommodation in the city. When full information is secured a de- tailed report will be made to the board, The finance committee reported that the insurance renewals gre the same as heretofore, with one exception. The risk on Rideau school building was in the Equity company, the agent of which was Mrs. J. C. Patterson. As she retired from the agency, the risk was placed in the Yorkshire, George Gillespie, agent, whose application for insurance is on file. A letter was received from J. O. Hutton, asking why the risk had been taken from the Equity, of which he was agent. It was explained that the renewal receipt had not been received the day before the policy expired, and that a special ' meeting of the finance committed had ordered sthe Rideau school re-insured in the company of Mr. Gillespie, who had applied for in- surance, The following ort of the property committee was adopted : That Alexander Ross be appointed caretaker of the public school class room in the old collegiate institute building, from September to Decem- ber, inclusive, at 85 a month.

The inspector, in consultation with the principals, is arranging a graded programme, pro- viding for an J review in each grade of the work of the lower grades. Iu this way the results, it is hoped, will be more satisfactory.

On motion of W, JI. Macnee = and R. Anglin the hoard empowered the [ranerty com aittee to. put. in electric lighting in the Collegiate gymnasium at 'a cost not to exceed $50. Mr. Macnoe wanted to know if Mr. Walkem's scheme of having prizes given for writing competitions to stimulate interest was being carried out this year. Mr. Walken replied that instead of stimulating interest in writing the prize method had caused trouble, and stimulated = something alse. Mr. Macnee jogged the memory of the management committee regarding the establishment '6f a cadet corps in the Collegiate Institute. Ho - would like to hear that committee's report, Mr. Renton said his committee had heen very busy of 'late but would take the matter up now, : Mr..

Mr. Donaldson wanted to know where the lady teachers bad secured all the figures they had presented in their petitions. One member @ ted that one of 'the lumly teachers uld be ac to the finance committee ' in view of their ability at getting sta- tistics. The chairman stated that recently a lady teacher had suggested to him that there should be a lady representative on the board of odu- cation. Mr. Elliott remarked that he would resign in favor of any lady who would like his seat at the board. He would be quite willing to give his place to retire in favor of a lady Tepeansntative. : n regard to the complaint of the manager of the Coliege Bookstore that a teacher of the Collegiate had ad- vised pupils to go to a éertain book- store for books, as the only place that kept them, Principal Slater said he had found no ground for the pro- test to the board. He had secured from the bookstore manager the names of the pupils alleged to have given the 'information, and each one of them had denied making a statement as charged. The teacher accused had also positively denied ad- Vising. pupils to go to 8 certain store, A Thieving by Little Girls.

Addresses by Mrs. T. PF. Harrison, Mrs. William Craig, and Rev, R. C. Armstrong, a Returned Mbsionary From Japan. The sixth annual convention of the Methodist Women's Missionary Socie ty, of Kingston district, was held in Sydenham street church, beginning at 2.30 p.m. yesterday, with Mrs. Wil- liam Craig, district organizer in the chair, Mus. Muirhead led the deve: tional exercises and gave a hélpful Bi- ble reading. Miss Toye presided at the piano. In response to the roll call by the secretary, Mrs. Wright, ten auxiliaries were reported by the dele gates in encouraging accounts of the wok, The president then introduced Mrs. McCallum, a veteran mission worker of this city, who spoke words of cheer and encouragement to the comvention. Mrs. McCallum, Jr., who Has spent nineteen years in missionary work in Turkey, and Mrs. Buchanan, of India, were mtroduced, each addressing the convention. The business of electing the district organizer was then dispatched. On motion of Mrs. Sparks, seconded by Mrs. Brebner, Mrs. Craig was re elected by a unanimous vote. An interesting paper, prepared by Miss Pitcher, B.A., of Gananoque, and read by Nr. C. H. fhurd, of that town, on "The Place of Young Wo- manhood in the Home and in Socie- ty, was much appreciated by the audience. A paper on "The Place of Young Womanhood in the Church," prepared by Mrs. J. L. ¥. Sproule, of Westbrook, and, owing tao her absence, read by Mrs. Sproule, of Kingston, showed careful thought and research into this interesting subject. A solo by Mrz. 'Small, "0 Lord, Cor- rect Me," was much enjoyed, after which Mrs. Brebner gave a paper on "What the Church Needs to Meet the World's Needs," which claimed the close interest of the audience. Rev. R. C. Armstrong, on furlough from Japan, was then introduced by the president, and was enthusiastical- ly received by the convention. . His theme was "The Women of Japan, Her Past and Present." His portrayal of contrasting conditions was vivid and dramatic, and his illustrations were lucid and forceful. Mrs. Sparks then copducted a ques. tion drawer, to the entire satisfaction of those who wanted inlorutalipn on many i ants topics, and the ses. sion a by the benediction. Tea was served in the church par- loves for all delegates and visitors, and a social time was enjoyed until the eveping session was called. Rev. T. W. Neil occupied the chair and conducted the devotional exercises, Miss Helen Mcintyre acted ap pianist. The secretary gave the minutes of the afternoon session, after which Miss Grace Mitchell charmed the music of "Jesus Lover-of My Soul," given in her usual pure sweet voice, accompanied by Miss C. Wilder. Mrs, T. F. Harrison then read a most interesting description of a trip taken by herself and Mr. Harrison to the coast where they visited the prin- cipal mission stations en route to Vie- toria. Many interesting incidents were given relative to the work in these important and rapidly-growing sta tions. Mrs. Harrison graphically des- eribed the reception given 'to Sir Wilfrid Laurier by the general con- ference at Victoria and many other instances of historic Toterest. The optimistic spirit of the west permeat ed Mrs. Harrison's paper and it was also stamped with the realistic touch of the eye-witness. - The description of All" People's Mission, Winnipeg, where the children are represented ih twelve different nationalities, sounded to Mrs. Harrison like the roll call of Europe. A solo by Harold Angrove was giv on in excellent voice and with much expression. After some well-timed re marks by Mis. Craig on the results of the meeting of the board of man- agement, held at Ottawa, where she represchted the Kingston district, the chairman introduced Rev. Mf. Arm. strong, of Japan. The dominant note f Mr. Armstrong's address was plea for the Japanese, that . they should be understood and appreciated THE FEAR OF HUMBUG, Prevents Many People From Trying a Good Medicine.

"We can't teach childven Browni ge; Teuny- son and Shakespeare" said Mr. Arm stroug. "until 'we begin by teaching them the AB.C'e." The education of the race is similar to the education of the child. He dwelt on the solidar ity of the race and of the religious elements of the races; of the difficulty to grasp the ideal and the mystical without previous education towards it. Even mn the light of the twentisth century in our beloved Canada some sects of Christians leas' to the ob jective and to that which appeals to the senses. He showed the spiritual ity of the Japanese even in their idol worship. There is no Christian na tion moral enough to impress the Japanese--it must 'be done by the oucleus. In many ways they are superior to so-called Christian na tions. An amusing incident was giv en as follows: A Japanese was ask od when he expected his dead friend to come and eat his chicken. "When yours comes to smell your flowers," was the apt reply. "We must not 'doal in negatives when meeting this intelligent nation," said the speaker, "while they adopt the navy from England, and the army from Germany they do not adopt Christianity from us because there are many things in Christian « Canada 'that repels them." Mr. Armstrong closed a most im pressive and scholarly address with a graceful tribute to the present em- peror and empress of Japan and a heartielt appeal to Christians to live worthy of the trust before them in the evangelization of China. A vote of thanks, proposed by Mrs. Sellery and seconded by Mrs. Pierce, was heartily responded to by the au- dience.
