profession most honorable. The mathe-
matician. the poet, the philosopher, are
all the product of the teacher; to him be
the crown. Our work, not to store MEM
DRY. but to cultivate minds. Educate your
pupils TO think by the use of living facts.
Memory tests are not educational, but
education is ability 10 use facts. As to
the requirements of the teacher, he must
be educated for his work; he must be
master Of his subject; there must be a
constant increase for teaching powers.
We must read educational journals, and
better buildings and equipments ere nee
essary."
A rising vote of thanks was extended
to the examiner and secretaries Aud
Lang Syne" was sung, and the institute
