South Grey Teachers Meet at Dundalk The annual convention of the South Grey Teachers’ Institute was held, in the high school, Dun- dalk, last Thursday and Friday. For the first time in some years, the Weather reverted to its tradi- tional unpl-easantness during the convention. Rain fell most of the time, and the dull, foggy Weather did not add to the pleasure of travelling over the muddy roads. Notwithstanding this handicap, 90 teachers were present and, like true Canadians, entered heartily into the proceedings of the meet- ing. Tho-ugh the weather without was gloomy, sunshine was in their hearts, and their faces responded to the inner radiance, so that the acting president was led to re- mark that the “sunshine” brigade was a more appropriate designa- tion for them than the old: “um- brella” brigade of former days. The .deVO-ti-onal exercises, With which the convention invariably opens, were conducted by Re f. Geo. Waugh of the Methodist! church, Dundalk. In the absence offi the president, Mr. T. H. Patterson! who had removed to another} county, Mr. Campbell occupied the; chair. Some preliminary business? having been disposed of, Miss; Janet E. Livingston of No. 4. Glen- clg', dealt in a sympathetic man~§ nwr with the question of “Juvenile; Literature” in our public schools.§ 1!: would seem from the paper and 3 discussion that this important ; class of literature Was not receiv-g -â€"_ ing the attention it deserved from our teachers and trustees. The 11»- hraries were not so-Well furnished with books for the primary class- “Busy Work in Primary Grades" ~--‘lm heart-break of beginners in girimary teachingâ€"Was ably hand- l-“d by Miss Zinn of Hanover and Miss Mann of Markdale. From their own rich experience in most successful primary Work. these ladies were able to treat the sub- iect in such an exhaustive and i1- luminating manner that little could be added by the rest. or; as with those for the higher (ti-rsses. An able treatment of “Music in Our Schools,” was given by Miss Pearl Clark of Hanover public school. Miss Clark illustrated the advantages of the subject, both for training and( fbr citizenship, as well as its value in the school- room itself to “sweeten discordant notes that are apt to rise.” The important point Was made that our Ontario children do not sing as much as they might, and probably our schools are to blame because musical notation has not been in the past as thoroughly taught as it should. Singing alone is not suf- ficient. n u in (f yiew of statesmen and educationists concerning the fu- ture had already undergone a change, and would change still more as the war went on. A new and deeper patriotism, which will hate graft and dishonesty and political chicane, must be inculcat- ed and the schools must be the channel through which will flow this quickened love of home and country. Christianity must take its rightful place as the foundation of statecraft and. everything national if we are to escape the awful blood lust that has changed peace- ful Germany into an armed camp. These, and many other poiiits were emphasized with relentless logic, yet in such sincere and. art~ less simplicity that the audience hung upon the fair Speaker’s wands. It was noted that even the klnitters forgot their knitting. Perhaps the item of greatest in- terast at the convention was the address of Miss May Cryderman, 8A., of the Durham high school staff on “The War and the School.’ Reviewing briefly the causes of the war, the conditions in Ger- many which popularized war, as such, witn the German people, and the effects of tne titanic struggle upon the world. at large and es- pecially upon our own country. Miss Cryderman. in a masterly and comprehensive summary, outâ€" lined the probable adjustments that would have to be made in the educational systems of the nations comprising the British Empire to meet the new world. conditions reâ€" sulting from the war. It was clear that in many spheres of human action, the old order of things had passed away, never to- return. The Miss Mil’ired Leeson, in- acorn- pact, Well-Written essay on “The School and. The Community,” em- phasized. the duty of the teacher to know the homes and. surround- ings of her pupils, to take an. act- ive interest in the social events of the section, and. so make the school a social centre for all that is best in the life of the community. \Pfifimcipal Allan of the Durhaml high school briefly pointed. out the desirability of greater accur- acy in teaching arithmetic, taking his illustrations mainly from ner- centage problems. If teachers fol- lowed his advice, their pupils would. find First Form arithmetic» much easier when they reached. thehigh scho’ol. ‘vâ€"vvâ€"o . owed his advice, their pupilsg Mrs. M. J.

The evil habit of many teachers in helping pUpilR to answer all questions and correct all imperfect Work, was scored as tending to produce parasites, and not independent thinkers. Dr. Dandeno. inspector of eleâ€" mentary agriculture, gave two very instructive addresses, one on “Diseases and. Sanitation,” and the other on “School Gardens for Public and Separate Schools.” Both were highly practical and were well received. It would be impos- sible to do the addresses iustice in a report of this kind, but it. would. be Well if the Dr. could be induced to give his address on “Diseases and Sanitation” to the city fathers of our towns. Villages and townships, and. his address on school gardens to rural school boards. Inspector H. H. Burgess of Owen Sound, contributed a most inter- esting paper on some phases of modern education. What should be the heart-thought of every teach- erâ€"the full. rounded development of our growing future citizensâ€" was set forth clearly, and a rem- edy in known defects suggested. It was regrettable that there was too little time for the full discus- sion of this valuable paper. The evening session Was also a most enjoyable one. Local talent supplied excellent vocal and in- strumental mufsic. Miss Hulsc of Dnaangewille gave some Well-rm»- .dered violin selections; Miss Kath- lcen Ball of the high school gave a spirited reading entitled “Briar Rose,” followed. by a patriotic selection which brought .down the house: the local clergymen gave capital, short addresses, and ~Rev. S. M. Whale-y. B.A., of Durham gave a thoughtful, educational address which was particularly well received. One competent citi- zen listener declared it was the best educational address he had heard in Dundalk. AA strong committee, with 311' J .Mag ee of HanOV er as com enor, was appointed to carry on, accor' .3- inc to the Regulations, the work of the Strathcona Trust as to physical culture, etc: Votes of thanks to the citizens of Dundalk for their genial hospiâ€" tality to the visiting teachers. and for the generous words of welcome of Reeve Colgan, Dr. Martin and Mr. Metherell, repre- senting the council, the high and public school boards, respectively; to Rev. Mr. W'haley and the local talent assisting at the evening ses- sion, and to Mr. Thos. Allan, for faithful service as secretary of the Institute, we cordially passed. Mr. S. F. Hunter, principal of Markdale high school, was ap- pointed president for 1916-17, and Mr. John A. Graham of Durham was appointed secretary, in place of Mr. Allan, who resigned amid general regret, because he thought the office should. be held bv a public school man. _ ‘v The teachers \oted unanimouslv as last \931‘. one day’s pay based on a 200 -.day year, to the Red Cross Society.

A very happy wedding took place in Markdale on Tuesday morn of last Week when the Rev. Fahter Flahaven celebrated the nuptial mass, which united. Mr. Miles Darcy and. Miss Annie Ryan one in heart and: hand. After sign- ing theregister and the warm fe- licitatinns of friends, the . merry party (drove to the bride’s parental ho‘me, Where a sumptuous dinner awaited them. More friends were present for supper, and a still bigger company at night, over one hundred and fifty being present, when mirth, music, song and dance made the hours fly swiftly. Rev. Father Flahaven added greatly to tho. enjoyment of the occasion and. gave a rousing patriotic speech as well. The bride is one of Glenâ€" elg’s fairest daughters, and looked wonderfully sweet and charming in her rich bridal gown. Miles is one of the progressive and popu- lar young farmers of the 8th con- cession, and the young couple be- gin the new life under bright trovâ€" pects. Many, useful and valuable were the presents received. The best Wishes of the community go with the glad hearts. Among those from a distance were: Mr. and Mrs. J. Cliff and family of Durham.
