Miss Marguerite Martin, of Ayton, was just made for her topic " The Sanshine Teacher," which left a glow of kindly feeling in her auditors. Miss Agnes Connelly‘s paper on ** Edâ€" ueational Efficiency, are we securing it " was an able effort. She pointed out what efficiency had meant to Gerâ€" many, what it meant to Britain to bave men like Kitchener and Lloydâ€" George, everywhere the most efficient engineers were in demand, and very succinctly she showed that the same end and principle should be looked for in Education. No fewer than three papers dealing with the Rural problem, is in line with a topic that is just now exercising the ablest minds. J, 8. Elliott talked of * Relation of Agriculture to World‘s Work," Wesley Boyd aired the * Rural Community and the Rural School,‘ and Miss A. Sceott‘s contribution " The function of the Ruaral School in solvâ€" ing the Rural Problem " was the third in the symposiam, The discussion was spoken of as being interesting and educative. The feature of the Professional side of the Association was undovbtedly the presence of Miss Auto Powell. Art Teacher of Toronto Normal School, Her Topics were; "Art, why, how and when to teach in the Publhc Schools " and " The Handling of Dif ferent Mediuams." They were much more than du@jlactic papers on Art, Miss Powell is muach more than an Art teacher. She is a student of human nature, a philosopher in a way, and many remarks she lets drop shows ber to haye the imilk of human kindness in dealing with the inexperienced and her eyes see in nature much more than ever books depicted, She handâ€" les brush and paints with the skill of an artist, aad the tree, or the landsâ€" cape grows before your eyes accomâ€" panted by comment both interesting and instructive. " How to secure habits of Economy‘ was a timely paper by MrJ. A, Mcâ€" Gee, of Hanover, and fuil of suggestâ€" iveness. â€" Priv. Allan of Durham re hearsed the practical benefits of the Strathcona Physical Culture Course, which he took duariog summer holidays and passed its examinations successâ€" fully too, Messrs D. T. Wright and Gilbert McEachern and Misses Marg. McKenâ€" and H. McKee wese down to intro. duce the question of whetherâ€" History and Hygienée should be rétained on Board, Principal Allan, Wm. Irwin. A quartette from the Methodist charch Meesrs McCOrae, Moyer (Rev.), Glass and Saunders and one from Presbyterâ€" 1an church, Misses Black and Wilson and Messrs Telford and Harding renâ€" dered fine selections and were encored, Miss Zeta Black was delightful in her Irish lullaby " Ob the sweet little girril" and a rousing encore brought her back. Miss Irwin gaye a number of fine instrumentais and Mr Morrison Smitb, of Dornoch, will be welcomed again in that line, The chairman thanked the audience for their attention, interest and good order and threw the meeting into the hands of a host of ladies who supplied an abundance of coffee, cake, ice cream and condiments. lections on piano and grafanola, the latter kindly furnished by Mr H. J# Snell of the music emporiam,. In ad. dition .to the Chairman‘s speech, and bhe was at bis best, there were § minâ€" ute addresses by Insp, Campbell, Revy‘ds Whaley and Moyer, C,.

New marine scenery added its attrections and altogether the comedy was the best of its kind. The proceeds after paying expenses, go entirely to the Ifed Cross Funds half to the Durham Red Cross Society, and half to the Lagies‘ Aid of the Presâ€" byterian OChurch. The interest in the comedy seems to be deepening, and a repetition later on might be advisable, The new Truancy Act, jast lately put in operation, was brought before the teachers by Insp. Campbell. Its provisions provide {or a monthly reâ€" port to the Inspector by the teachers whether they haye or have not delinâ€" quents to report. 1(s provisions should prove yery efficient if carried out in a sympathetic manner, but it must enâ€" tail an enormous amount of extra work on the Inspectors, The Association took up the question of contributing as teachers to the Pa. triotic Fand and it was unanimously decided to give ai leâ€"st one day‘s pay to the Red Cross Fand, thus a salary of $600 would yie!i ©2. A number exâ€" pressed a willingue s to make it two days, but it wus made one day at least.

The gathering closed loyally by " God gave the King." Mr T. H. Patterson, the new Presiâ€" dent, introduced the Superannuation I8ill, a very important measure in the interests of the teachers, especially of those who made it their life work. Naturaliy the younger teachers are not so impressed with its necessity, but a spirit of loyalty to the profession will no doubt lead to a hearty and unâ€" animous adbesion to the scheme, which has advyantages oyer the old system, the compulsory features of which were abolished in 1885. the H. 8. Entrance Examination, Insp. Campbell intimated that a free expression of opinion had been asked for, The discussion showed the decidâ€" ed opinion of the teachers that these subjects will be taaght as well without a written examination.
