Market | The object of the trip was to show teachers the great wealth of that new land, the opportunities offered, and how these opportunities are be- ing improved by the people who live there. Mjss Carpenter was impress- ed with the scenery and the exhaust- less resources of the northland, and the hospitality of its people made the trip one long to be treasured in her memory. Following this, Mr. Linklater, principal of the Gananoque public schools, gave an interesting talk on "Waste in the Schoolroom." He stated that there were four avenues of waste,--I. Waste of material. Pupils are prone to destroy their work books, to deface their books, furniture of the school-room, and even property on the way home. Teachers have a splendid opportunity here to teach their pupils to be thrifty and to respect the property of others. II. Waste of time: Much time is lost by slowness in beginning of session, in transition from class to class, by imperfect classification, by useless talking, by lack of a care- ful preparation of work, by teach- ing of useless matter that has no practical nor disciplinary value, by Spey ing too much time on spelling, by" poor methods of teaching, by trying to develop too much by moral lectures (morals are not developed by lectures), by allowing pupils to do less than their best work, and by al- lowing pupils to idle away their time. The child must be taught to work. He had no sympathy for teachers who tried to make work like play. III. Waste of opportunity: The teacher should study each individual child and watch for opportunities to develop the gifts, graces and capa- bilities of each. IV. Waste of teacher's nerve force: He advised the teachers to look on the bright side and to make the children happy by being happy themselves. Dr. Park, Peterboro Normal School, spoke next on "Some Com- {mon Fallacies in the Teaching of Grammar." His address' was very instructive and cleared up many dif- ficulties for the teachers. The evening programme consisted of a series of talks on *' The Relation of Teachers, Parents, and Trustee to One Another and. to the Child." George Wheeler, Lyndhurst, poke on behalf of the teacher, W, C. Johnston, Lyndhurst, on behalf of the parent, and Mr, Phelps, Delta, on behalf of the trustee, Mr. Wheeler remarked that the trustee should take a greater in- terest in both the child and the teacher and that only broadminded men and women should be chosen for trustees. The teacher must be o: lover of children, must know the home life of the pupil and must above all have.a glimmer of the Great Master's designs, Mr. Johnson said the whole sys- tem was filled with a spirit of pass- ing on the responsibility. There should be a sympathetic co-operative Spirit between ratepayer, trustee, and teacher. He stated that the school was. too isolated, that each month there should be "A Mothers' Aftir- noon," and twice a year "A Rate- payers' Day." Parents should know where the ¢hild is while out of schoo} and a community play ground would solve this. ' He believed that tho edu- cational system should be taken out of the political field. Mr. Phelps, representing the trus- tee, stated that there were many trustees who did their duty. He stated that parents should economize in something else rather than in edn- cation, in their cars, if necessary. The moral and upright development of the child should ' be valued more dit, who held up and robbed a cam- ping party at Lake Worth, near Fort Worth last week, was shot to dedth on Tuesday, when he attemp¢bd to escape from the officers.
