The lecture was pre- faced by a piano solo from Miss Watson, a recitation by Miss Watt, a vocal solo by Miss Nicolson, and some well chosen remarks by the chairman, Rev. Dr. Grant. , Professor McLellan very seriously reected on the moral training of the boys and girls of to- day, by stating that our system of educa- tion is pre-eminently defective on the side of moral education. In politeness and obedi- ence Canadian youth do not compare favor- ably with boys and girls in the Old Country, andlzhis is owing to the fact that children- are not made to obey. Let those in author- ity use kindness first ; then, if that does not work, coercion. Obedience must be obtain- ed no matter what the cost. He scored those mothers who. in their efforts to attend to the duties of numerous societies, are neglecting the duties pertaining to that greatest, most important, and most sacred of all societies, the home. In the course of the address, teachers were given instructions as to how to secure a moral effect on their pupils by means of good literature.:_ Qntnrnv Innrnil-\nI u annnunn '1-nun nnn|1v\:nr` U551 VI on Guns uuuu IIIIU lull uunu I qtuuunwl '3 A a `c lminiuted.
