The setâ€" tlement of olden times had a large percentage of the highland race and their descendants observed the langâ€" uage of their forefathers fairly well. The writeup says that they came for miles from all directions to hear the language of their forefathers and it is evident that the dear old language is not forgotten by the younger generaâ€" tion. Mr Matheson made reference to the hardships the highland pioneers had in entering the woods scores of years ago. They worshipped in their Just Arrived â€"A Shipment of Rev W H. Smith had prayer mestâ€" ing at the Edge Hill Hall last Friday evening. We had the pleasure of hearing Rev Geo. Kendell of Dundalk last Sunday, in the Presbyterian church, Durham. Mr Kendell has his old time excellent manner of preaching, but we notice the passing of time has made a change in his appearance. years ago. They worshipped in their own language humbly in the olden manner. _ The good old Psalms were used and generally~ chanted while reading the lines. Those who heard the old tune of Coleshill sung and the lines chanted will bring back to the memory of the aged veteran the days of his youth, when he as a leader or precentor led the old Psaims to a crowded house, sometimes trembling at the start, but having a good clear voice, soon got over his nervous manâ€" ner. However these olden times have passed and instead of the old vocal musical leader, we now have substiâ€" tuted artificial music to the strains of the organ operated generally by ladâ€" ies, who are thoroughly versed in all manner of mustc. good singin‘." so congregations always appreciate good singing by all presâ€" ent. _ Priceville was always favored by having good singers in their choir and looking away back to the times when the young precentors stood in a box below the preachers, the whole congregation were the choir and took part in singing the old Psaim tunes, such as Martyrdom, Kilmarnock, Torâ€" wood, and many old tunes, not in use at our church services nowadays.

We see by last week‘s Review that Priceville is to be the gainer and Dromore the loser in the removal to Priceville of the veteran musician, Wim. Ramage. Mr Ramage is one of the very few who so faithfully attendâ€" ed to the duties entrusted to him as leader of the choir of Dromore Presâ€" byterian church for nearly half a cenâ€" tury and we congratulate Priceville by the assurance that Mr Ramage will take the leadership of the choir there also.

E. McHugh, teacher THE DURHAM REVIEW ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO V ICINIHTY Miss Jennie Long of Walkerton, exâ€" plained her system of "Teaching of History in Rural Schools" and showed how pupils can be led to like reading history for themselves. Then followâ€" ed W. J. Messenger of Markdale Pubâ€" lic School with his subject of "Aids in Teaching History and Geography." Begin with the local geography and Mr Thos. Allan, for many years headmaster at the County Model Sch. at Durham, and later Principal of Durhom High School, was present as a visitor and made a neat address, dealing in a reminiscent mood with teachers and teaching in younger days. Mr Allan always has a warm welcome from S. Grey teachers. Such rapt attention was paid to this very interesting and instructive address that a deep impression was made upon the teachers of these two Inspectorates. Mr Robt. Wright, B. A., Public Sehâ€" ool Inspector for South Grey, dealt in a comprehensive manner with the subject â€" "Self Improvement of the Teacher," in which he urged upon the teacher never to cease being a stuâ€" dent. Teachers should often examâ€" ine themselves as to what is their atâ€" titude towards their job and what is their attitude towards the communâ€" ity of which their school is the cenâ€" tre. _ Rural teachers should have a clear comprehension of rural needs. While it is well to have a thorough knowledge of all that concerns the inside of a school, it is equally imporâ€" tant to be conversant with conditions outside of the school so as to know the home conditions under which children live and learn. Teachers require a knowledge of the materials with which they have to work, such . as the mind and the processes by which it works. The wise teacher‘ endeavors to be in the proper attiâ€" tude for work and thereby lead the pupils along a similar line so that both teacher and pupil may work with as little distraction as possible. The philosophy of play and of exâ€" ample are potent factors in the sueâ€" cess of any teacher. He dealt with the subject of reading particularly, and quoted many selections from the several readers to show the proper method to be pursued in each. Mr John MecCool, B. A., Public Schâ€" ool Inspéctor for East Bruce, gave an instructive address on the ‘Teacher as a Philospher.‘ He referred to the life and works of Ulysees, Socrates and Solomon and the philosophy exâ€" emplified by each of these great men. These Institutes are to be congratâ€" ulated on having men of such standâ€" ing in the educational world as Mr. Silcox and Mr Firth to address them. They left a very good impression with the teachers of East Bruce and South Grev. Mr J. W. Firth, B. A., of Normal School, Toronto, gave an interesting address on "Wordsworth, the Nature Poet." He showed the influence of Wordsworth on the poets of that perâ€" iod and brought out many fine points showihg why Wordsworth should be more widely read in order to be betâ€" ter appreciated by a reading public. Mr Firth in another address dealt with "The natural History of Ponds and Streams" as a means of learning more about the study of Nature and thereby becoming a lover of Nature Study. Mr Silcox also gave an excellent address on Canadian Literature. He urged all true Canadians to read more of the books written by Canadian auâ€" thors of which there are many of a very high standard. Some of these authors he named together with many of their principal writings and read and quoted some of their richest gems to an appreciative audience. Mr Aiton presided over all the sesâ€" sions on Thursday and Mr J. ‘A. Maâ€" gee, Principal of Hanover Public School, and Pres. of S. Grey Teachâ€" ers‘ Institute, presided throughout the Friday sesions. Mr S. Silcox, B. A., D. Paed., of Normal School, Stratford, gave an excelient address on "Teacher Trainâ€" ing in the Normal Schools and in Serâ€" vice" and stressed the necessity of continuous _ professional _ study of methods of teaching as time was much too short at Normal Schools to cover all these courses adequately. Then the two Institutes met again in the spacious auditorium of the new High School, where Mr Harry W. Alâ€" ton, Principal Walkerton Public Schâ€" ool and President of East Bruce Teachers‘ Institute gave the Presidenâ€" tial address on "Vacations and how they should be used." The teachers in the two Inspectorâ€" ates then divided into two sections in adjoining rooms where minutes of last Institute meeting in respective Inspectorates were read, financial reâ€" ports reéceived and general business transacted. a eachers of S.

The standing Com, brought in its reâ€" port which was duly endorsed as folâ€" lows : On Friday afternon, Mr Harold M. Ermel, Principal Neustadt Public Sch. gave his Feport as a delegate to the 0. E. A. last Easter and was well reâ€" ceived. The Ladies‘ Auxiliary of the Hanoâ€" ver Memorial Hospital served dinner and supper on Thursday in the baseâ€" ment of the Baptist church at 50¢ a meal and had full tables at every meal and then some. 1t takes Hano ver to help Hanover, The whole comâ€" munity works hand in hand to assure success. "Boost Hanover" is their motto and you watch Hanover grow. On Thursday evening the auditorâ€" ium of the new High School was nearâ€" ly filled to capacity by the teachers and citizens of Hanover to enjoy a program of instrumental and vocal music and a Travelogue with moving pictures of a trip to Europe this summer. The speaker, Mr Wm. Macâ€" Donald, exâ€"M.P.P.,â€" editor of the Chesley Enterprise, was one of that party and he explained, humorously and seriously by turns, the several scenes depicted and the several scenes of interest thrown on the screen. The audience were delighted with program throughout _ Mr Macâ€" Donald is a fluent, entertaining spea~ ker and his pictures were good and instructive. Rev. J. D. Lane of the Presbyterâ€" ian church is chairman of the Hanoâ€" ver High School Board, in whose beâ€" half he welcomed to Hanover the teachers here present, and drew their attention to the many excellent facilâ€" ities for higher education in that town. A student spends about one fifth of his time at school and four fifth at home. On the use made by the studâ€" ent of the four fifth of his time out of the school, depends the success that will be achieved in the oneâ€"fifth of his time at school. Mr Hamilton and his High School staff were presâ€" ent throughout every session and creâ€" ated a very,favorable impression upâ€" on the teachers of East Bruce and 8. Grey. A good High School should inculâ€" cate among its students, regularity of attendance, punctuality, submission to constituted authority, and truthâ€" fuiness. This High School is for the preparation of the youth of this comâ€" munity for the issues of the battle of life. They will get a preparation here for a life of activity in business, trade, occupation or profession. He urged a close coâ€"operation between the school and the home. Mr _ John R. Hamilton, B. A., the new Principal of the new High Schâ€" ool, at Hanover, was called to the platform and he delivered a sound, sensible address in which he explainâ€" ed the many excellent features in the construction and equipping of this new educational institution to which the youth of this part of Grey and Bruce are welcomed to pursue their studies. He expresed his determinaâ€" tion to endeavor to build up a good High School at Hanover. Then Mr D. T. Wright, Principal of Dundalk High School, congratulated the people of Hanover for having erâ€" ected such a magnificent High School building. ‘There had been a remarkâ€" able improvement in the building of schools all over Ontario but of these Hanover is in the van of such imâ€" provements. . The success of a High School depends upon the work done in the Public Schools and urged that teachers of High Schools and of Pubâ€" lic Schools should work in unison in order to attain the best results. Addresses from visiting High School teachers brought to the platform Mr MceCamus, Principal of Walkerton H. School, who in a few well chosen reâ€" marks, referred to the success of this present Convention. the local history of your school secâ€" tion, then expand to include township, county, province, country.
