The Hventyfourth convention of the iiiBpoitoial division of S<iutli Grey was lieUI III Ihu lilodul School, Durham, on tbe ,'lrd and 4tli iiist. Owing to the iiii- faxuralilo condition of the weather, how ever, only a small luimbor was present at t Uh linid appointed for opeiilUL' so tli.il till! woik wiia not bugnii until L' ]> in., *hen ex-president Raina'.'e was called to the chair in the absunee of Mr. (ileii dining. The niPcting beiiv.' opeiie<l in the usual way, the minutes of the May meeting were read and adopteil. Air. (yampbell was called upon to re- port the action of the county council in 1 xgard to promotion itxainliiatiun papers. He expi'ussed forest pleasure III tim Ken eroiis manner 111 which the council attteil ill the matter of assuming! the expense of printing, etc. Discussion followed aa to the beat time for holding tbeso promotion exair.inations, many ceiitendiiig for .liiiie and Deci'iiilier while othera thought bet ter tu liohl iheiii about the latter part of March and October, .\ voto was taken which showed the .Asaociatioii to be ei|iially divided, and it was unaniiiinusly agreed U> leave the matter with the In spect(U' to arrange with the other inspec- toral divisions. Mr. (^lwall made a very ab'e and elo- (|ueiit adilress on the teacliing of teinper- aii.'.e ill schools. He did not lielieve that it was within the power of the teacher to inculcate temperance principles anil that such work coiibl never be accoinplisbed by lollowing the plan outlined iii the authorised temperance text book. While a strong ailvocate of teinperaiicii he could not see the practicability of carryini; out the work succeesfully, nioreovor, he did not see the justice of developing this one ph.iHe of our moral natures to the neijleet of all others. Th: miniaturs wore the proper persons to take up this subject, and a more vigorous effort might he made by them instead of urging the Kilucation I>epartiiieiit to plaee an additional burden on the teacher whose |>rogram was al- ready overcrowded. Every teacher should have and has a rii;ht to litjht auainst the imposition of additional work. W hile all admired the eutspoken charac- ter nf Mr (./'owaii's address, ivuiiy took exceptisn to his views believing that the truly moral temperate teacher could do a great deal towards the developeinsnt of the moral nature of a child. Amongst those who took part in the discussion was Mr. Biniiie, a trustee, whose brief ad- dress wag full of forcible and fearless de- nunciation of all forms of intemperance, whether in eating, drinking or excess of any other sort. He believed that the future national prosijerity of our country depended hugely u(>on the indefatigable ett'iirts of the teachers to subdue all kinds of vice. The plastic nature of the child's mind is such that, during school age, im- piest.ion8 f(pr good or evil are easily made. How important is it then that children should live ill an atmosphere of purity, surrounded by the very best influences that tend toward the dcvelopement of those moral ipialities that go to make up the perfect man. Mr. W. Houston, M. A., Parliamentary Lil rarian, Toronto, was the acting direc- tor of the .Vs."ociatio;i, and occupied uur- iiig the two days upwards of five hours i.i the developeinent of his inethod.s in the practical, scientific and esthetic treatment of KiiL'lish, commencing with a child on liis first »'ntiaiice to the school. Mr. Houston traced ihe dovelopement of the kiiguage faiully ti> that period whiMi the cultured Kiiglish scholar can see and ap- preciate the beauties of the masterpieces of our Eiu'lish literature and enter into sympathy with our gr^at English authors. He denounced the ordinary riaid adher- ence to text books and inveighed against all forni.s of teacUing, the object of which !â- ( to "stutr' pupils for the examinations, nor woulil he measure the ability of the tea'her by the number of candidates he u'eis through an examination. He did not come to instruct teachers in the way to prepare pupds to pass the "entrance," lull to give an exhibition of whathe c oii- scdered good model teaching and advised all to endeavor to ilfi good work for at least eight months in the year and if oii|i.,/ed to do any '"atutring" to di> it all the lasi looiith In his esth^'tic treatment of Kii'.'li.-ili he ciuidemned the use of aiio- taled ediiioiis of English authors, or us- 10',' his own Words, "If you would appre- ciate the force I'f hun.ali genius read .Shakespeare ; if you would appreciate the in-igniticaiKe of liuinan learnin'.;,read the coiiimemators. " It would take too much time and »\>nce t.i give even an out- line of the subject as taken up by Mr, Houston, whom, to appreciate must be heard. Ordinarily this gentleman would ii't be regarded as an o.ator, but it must be admitted by all that he is brim full of his subject, has a masterly command of language, a pleasing and impressive way of expressing himself and a wonderful faculty of keeping the attention of his audience. He never gets excited and his mode of address is purely conversa- tional. In the evening a public meeting;, pre- sided over by Hr. (iun, was given in the Tonii Hall. Short but excellent ad- dresses of welcome were given to the leacbers by Ihe chairman, Iter. Mr. Mc- Nair and the other resident clergymen. Kicellent niiisic was furnished by the luiol and seveml vocal selections were rendered in a very highly appreciated manner liy the locid talent of Durham. In addition to this we must not foix'et to nieniion the very creilitable exhibition of I'liib swinging by Master and Miss Solh- eilan<l While tic gooci people of Durham are wide-awalie to the intellectual devel- opeinent of their children it must be ad- milted that tliey are ;dso giving treat at- tention to iheir physical and esthetic cul- ture as well. Tile lecturer of the evening, however, was Mr. W. Houston on the topic â- 'Ui'adiiig for Kecruation." As to the cinirai. i-r of the reading reconinieiid- ed, that was left to the choice of thu in dividual. Some, but ho believed the nuinlier to be very small, read relitfioua works for recreation, others, a compara- lively sni.'xU miinber also, pi-eferreu iii- vestiLjation of ,i scientific subject of some sort. Hisiciry and l)iof^ra|diy niiglit ai.so be pursued with pleasure and profit. No objection ciiuUI reasonably be offered to such a course of reading, providing the religious were orthi>dox, the scieutitic ac curalo, and the historical and th<' bio graphical works relialde. The majority, however, preferred novel reading, no had no objection to this either if the novel ha<l a good inorikl.but a great many of the lower class novels of the present day unfit a person for any other kind o( readino and cannot bo recommended. Mr. Houston prefers to read tbo o'd novels anil does not feel disposed to spend his time in investigating the merits of every new production. It is necessary to Ihe proper understanding of history tn read certain novels. H'or example, if you wiah to ifet an insif^ht into the mau- ncrs and customs and social life of the people of England in the time of King John, you will not got it in the histories, but you can get if in "Ivanhoe." Other insfances ware cited but this will suffics. as a rule appear dry but Mr. R's produc- tions are an exception to the rule. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year : Mr. Allen, president, Miss Sutherland first vice president, Mr. W. K. Rci<! second vice-president, W. Irwin secretary treasurer.
