Teachers In Session.

=, Th$ monthly meeting ofthe Fairfield
Teachers Association took place on
Saturday last at Mount Zion Institute.
There was q very fair attendance and
all seemed to take an interest in the
proceedings ofthe Association. Owing
to the fact that the Presipent, tho Rev.
Mr.. Richardson, was to take part in
the exercises, Mr. w. Fl. Robertson
was called to the chair and called the
meeting to order. ..,~.|
, , After the reading of tho minutes.
and the election Of new members,
very interesting address was made by
the Rev. &. p. Watson, on the subject
Of Moral Training. He discussed the
great Importance Of teaching children
to think for themselves, and to be
faithful in the performance of every
duty. !. He, strongly advocated moral
suasion as a reason of bringing the
youthful offender back to the paths of
rectitude, that the same result could
be accomplished in this way that would
follow the use ofthe rod. His address
was. listened to. attentively by all
present, and at its conclusion vote
Of thanks was rendered him.
The next subiect for discussion was
school Government, and In opening
.a the discussion Prof. Corke was i'm
pressed with the fact that order was
the essential to succesful government
and to TO this the pupil must be i'm
: pressed with the authority OF his
teacher. s General rules should be
made by the trustees, but special rules
should be left to tho teacher himself,
as he,ytas faniliarWtth what was tre4
qulred, Tho first great rule to be
itsught was the difference between
! right 'atd wrong, and the power to
snake this distinction would increase
with tie ago Of the. pupil. Another
But important essential to d successful
government was the power of the
teacher to control his own tempter,
and be as cheerful as possible upon
ell occasions. Lastly he discussed the
Importance OF winning the esteem and
good will Of bis pupils, and thereby
making school days, days Of pleasure.
The Association was next favored
/, by ah instructure address Oh the Beet
Methods Of Developing the minds Of
children by the Rev. Mr.. Richardson q.
A study Of the cer&sisy ofthe child'a
mind very essential, together with q
cultivation Of tho reasoning facilities.
AT the conclusion Of this address. the
Association adjourned to meet at
MossY Dale on the Oath of fApril.
KS EGorte will be made to SECURE tho
services of several speakers on the
{. following subjects: School Hygiene
.Physcology, Ethics and HGthetics.
We are sorry that our inability to be
