SINCE our last issue we have had a profitable interview with Mr. George Ferguson, br0ther of Rev. Mr. Fer- guson here. He left Durham County England in 1882, and since the fol- lowing year he has been in British Columbia, engaged during the whole period of 34 years in gold mining, with which he has a complete know- ledge. Singular enough he saw his brother. the minister, when only a boy in Durham, England. and never again did he see him until last week in our own town, Durham. About a year ago he left British Columbia for his health and has been travelling in the United States and in the VVeitern THE April numberbf the Delineator is called the Spring Number, and it confirms andisupplements the Spring Styles given in March. The lfterary matter for this month ranges over a very interesting field, Dr. Murray’s articles on headaches, treated in a popular way. but with a physician! knowledge, should be much apprecia- ted. Mrs. Meynell’s description of how children regard their toys will be a useful lesson to parents. There is an article on Renovating the Farm House, which will apply equallyr to any country house. For the House- keeper there is an excellent paper on House Cleaning, while the second part of Almonds in the Kitchen“gives many original and desirable receipts. “'13 are pleased to learn that the Gramophonic Concert given by Mr. G. W. Jones in S. S. No. 9 Glenelg, on Friday night last, notwithstand- ing the exceedingly unfavorable con- dition of the weather, was a marvel- lous success. The ban so was comfort- ablv filled and everyone enjoyed the concert, though the selections were all rendered by the gramophone which, during the winter, at many other places. has rendered delightful services to good and appreciative audiences. The entertainment, we understand, was wholly for the benefit of the section. whose testhetic tastes are becoming so cultivated that not only the homes, but the school also, must be supplied with all the necessary attractions that go to give a charm and spice to life. \Ve again congratulate the people and teacher, {or the sterling enterprise shown of late. Another entertainment next summer is now contemplated. Or INTEREST 'ro TEACHERS.â€"-Fl°0m a circular just issued from the Educa- tion Department we take the follow- ing items which may be of interest to teachers: The High School En- trance and Public School Leaving examinations for 1898 will begin on Tuesday June 28, at 8:45 a. tn. The course of study prescribed for the examinations is that given in the res vised regulations excepting that physiology and temperance take the place of botany at the public school leaving examinations. Any misun- derstanding on the part of the candi- dates regarding the requirements is to be dealt with by the local boards in settling results. The revised reg- ulations do not, as formerly, call for the presentation of book work in writing, drawing, etc., at either the High School Leaving exams. For the latter examination, boolnvork, if presented by candidates. is to be taken into account, as last year, in view of the Special provisions ar- nounced for 1898. ,l898.
