The occasion was made interesting by the speeches of Prin- cipal Harstone. exâ€"students, and the retiring master himself. That after 14 years of successful teaching at the Institute, Mr. Stevens resigned his position only to accept a‘hig'her one in the same community, and amid such hearty good-will on the part of both students and fellow teachers, was one 01 the happiest incidents in the educational annals of this coun- ty. Representatives of Different .ln- terests Make Appreciative Speeches to Which Mr. Stevens Replied Mr. W. H. Stevens Was Pre- sented With a Purse and Address on Thursday Shortly after 2.30 the boys filed into the hall, placed the chairs that were stacked against the walls, sat down, animatedly vocalized the clas- sic legend that adorns a strip of cotton strung above the rostrum and constitutes the entire literature of the placeâ€"a. legend which when in- terpreted by the collegians defies re- production in any of the tongues at the command of a newspaper man when sober, but which when nailed down on the wall is as follows : COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE PUPILS HONOR THE RETIRING MASTER A SKETCH 301‘ “IS CAREER Rah! Rah ) Rah. To this scripture the students of the Institute are much addicted and they give vehement expression to it. upon the slightest provocation. Its. rendering is supposed to constitutei one of the things that an old-tim04 worthy heard and deemed unlawful for man to utter. But your modem student is not amenable to those: former limitations and gives utterâ€"1 ance to the cabalistic syllables with? the utmost fervor and abandon. Everyi rendering provides escape for more. superabundant animal spirits thanl could master the Pons Assinorum m" a page of the Bellum Britanicum. To] the uninitiated auditor this perform-i ance is apt to be productive of the! fear that leadeth to repentance : but ‘ upon the seasoned incorrigibles who] perpetrate it, it has no such salutary eflcct; they are proof against such psychological condition,â€"â€"except. per- 1 chance, at examination time. for ex-l aminers are singularly indifferent to! the terrors of the school cry. But that is all by the way. After. amid the vociferations usual upon such occasions. the young ladies had entered the Hall followed by the staff, the proceedings proper were goti under way. Upon the platform sat Principal Harstone. Mr. Thos. Ste- wart, chairman of the Board of Edu-l cation, and the retiring master Mr.‘ W. H. Stevens, B. A. ' ‘ On behalf of the stall, students and . err-students of the institution, Mr.i Student Burns read an address and? ented Mr. Stevens with a. cheque for $35. A further 810 was con- tributed and will be spent in illuminâ€" ating the address. . 'l‘hen did Chairman - .‘itewg't Then (nu v ---------- make remark on behalf of his board.

He had early been attracted to teaching. although there were likely other cal- lings in which he could have suc- ceeded. It was only after careful thought that ho had severed his connection with the school. He was going back into his mu) county to try and help its schools. His only object was to do his best for the p€0ple. and give them a wider view of education. ' Going on Inspector Stevens pro- nounced a panogyric on the study of English. He spoke as follows: "In my new duties I shall follow a the- ory that may not be adopted by some; but it is my own theory nevertheless, and it is that the only solid foundation for all our educa- tion is a. knowledge of and liking for English. I am not speaking ag'ainst Stevens' 14 years in Lindsay had a like ending .‘P, It was a high reward to come to the close of such a term of service with the esteem of those with whom and for whom he had worked. mathematics or science when I say that no man can be well educated who has not a thorough grasp of English literature : with it he cannot be uneducated. A knowledge of the language we speak, the ability to in- terpret it, and love for it, put a man into a position from which all the stores of knowledge are within his reach. This skill in English with only a smattering of other subjects. I regard a sound education. It a man has not the knowledge of Eng- lish of which I have Spoken, I care not how many colleges he goes through, he is not an edude man. English is the basis of all our educaâ€" tion. All other subjects are only tributary to it. If I were a French- man. I should say the same thing of the French language, for a man must he skilled in his own language if he is to get hold of knowledge. So I a hill by stopping; it one has no horse he must walk. The top of the hill of education was a. long way the other side of college.

The public will learn with the sin- cerest regret that Ontario's "Grand Old Man." Sir Oliver Mowat. has met with another serious and pain- ful accident. In some mysterious manner, while being helped into bed at Government House last night, his thigh bone was broken. His Honor is now in his eighty-third year, and has been {or some months in precar- ious physical health. The gravest fear is entertained as to his ability to rally from the shock. game he left them to wrestle with was: for their own good.‘ The " ts of the department al- lowed less time for the slow indepenâ€" dent" work that did pupils the great- est good. than Mr. Stevéns would like. Often the short time to get ready for examinations compelled the: teachers to tell pupils things that‘ they would be much beneuttod by beâ€" ing left to find out for themselves. For it was not what a pupil learned. so much as the mental training he got in learning it, that was of use in after life. “You may forget all your chemistry" said Mr. Stevens, “but you will never lose the results of working out the problem that I would not solve {or you."

The accident occurred last night about nine o'clock, when Sir Oliver was undressing. He was being car- ried from a chair to his bed, when, in some unaccountable manner, his right thigh bone was broken about mid-way between the hip and the knee. ‘ DOCTORS SUMMONED Dr. Temple and Dr. Primrose were immediately sent for. and the bone was set after Sir Oliver had suffered considerable pain.
