The Chronicle advertised recently for a printer and got several applica- tions. One of the craft, in need of , work dropped into our sanctum on Tuesday night two weeks ago. He represented himself as a good, all round man in need of steady employ- ment. Though he took a. glass occa- sionly. he said he didn’t booze and we gave him u job for two weeks on trial. He was at good workman, neat and quick, and after three or four days We told him he had a permanent job if he could keep up the. right pace. This was on Saturday and the thing,' was settled. Monday morning he turned up all right. Tue<duy morning ditto, but apparently nervous as though he hm] hon-n out it little too late at at was on Saturday and the thing was settled. Monday morning he turned up all right. Tuesday morning ditto, but apparently nervous as though he had been out at little too late at a. church social or some similar gather- ing, \Vednesday morning he came in late, and smelled like a. beer barrel on wheels. About an hour or so later he decided to quit, and after unloading himself of considerable oratory in the afternoon he. disappeared as myster- iously as he came. He carries a Union Card and says he gets $5.00 a. week Card and says he gets $5.00 a. week while the strike is on and he is out of work. \Ve presume the Union is pay- ing over the money yet, while John is hunting for a job he doesn’t intend to keep. \Ve squared up with him be- fore he left. and the Middangh House man was sorry that we did. Booze and business don’t mix well and this is only another instance. where a good worknmn goes round without a cent in his pocket because he allows whis- key to be his master.

Instantly you are aware that some powerful force is building up your depleted energies. At once you feel braced, toned, strengthened. Search the world over and you won’t find anything to tone up a weak system like Ferrozone. Physicans claim it is the most strengthing, uplifting medicine ever discovered. "I state my case because I think it‘ may assist other women to healthfl A year ago I was almost a Wreck. I was pale and emaciated, suflering faom nervousness and hysteria. Little things going wrong in the house bothered me. The doctor ad- vised difiereut treatments but they didn’t help. He said my low con- dition was due to weakness that might. never be cured. Fetrozone had a peculiar grateful eflect and built me up quickly. The ills I suf- feted from are cured. I am now strong and vigorous and was made so by Ferrozone.” Night comes and it’s hard to sleep. Morning dawns and the anxious. tired feeling is still there. Don’t neglect. this graduuldecline; it can’t cure itself. But by forming rich. pure blood. Ferrozone will quickly supply the: nutriment and building material your system craves. The Summer School was held inf the Normal School. On the first day: we assembled in one of the class: rooms. where we were greeted by: the staff. Then the register Wasl called and the rupils were dismissed. The work in Nature Study was taken by two of the Normal School staff ; Mr Scott taking the work on plants while Mr. Elliot took the work on insects and birds. ‘ In his first lecture Mr. Elliot aimed ‘ to point out the object of Nature Study and what nature study was. Nature study. he said, was the study 'of nature in her relations by the child and from the child's standpoint. To secure accurate observation is im- portant but- it is more important to understand what is observed. For tnstanoe there is not a boy or girl in our schools but what has seen ants going up... tree. How many can tell you why they went up? The work should be done objectively. not from memory, The teacher’s part being to direct the pupil’s work. In the course of his lectures on in- sects we were given the great classes and their general characteristics. Then the subdivisions and their pe- culiar characteristics. We were giv- en the life history of a great many. Their relationship to man It then pointed out, showing how an ery olton destroys his best friend. iLack the Vigor, Courage and: Staying Power that “Ferro- i zone” Can Supply.

I have no collec- tion ” The advice is make one, either a priva'e one or one for your school. The latter is more easily accomplish- ed 8-} the pupils WOIIId be delighted to do the work. The material is p’entiful. The following are the requisites for making a coll-action. nomelyâ€"a poism bottle. strercbing hoa‘rd. inspct. pins and insect. case.

The relationship of the Ehaunts of birds to their food was i made clear. Here again the relation- }ship to man was taken. In this he lpointed out that if man were proper- !ly informed of the various birds he ‘ would nor. kill them. For instance, 5.90%) of the food of the chicken hawk .is injurious rodents. AnOther case 'referred to was where man killed 03 the shore birds and this led to an «epidemic of fever. The study of birds is therefore essential to every boy and girl particularly those of our rural school. a groove in centre for the body of the insect to rest in It is used particu- iarly in case of moths and butter flies as they do not die with their Wings spread. Insect pins :3 and 4 stenda‘rd white are used, costing 13o per 100 and are to be had from the Charles Chapman 00.. LJUdOD. The case used by the Normal students last year was an ordinary flat cigar box. As to literature on insects we were advised to get CJmSIOCk’S manual for the study of insects. We were taken on excursions to the woods each armed with a poison bottle and note book. Our specimens were discussed at the beginning of the next lecture. The collectors must be careful to note time and place also not to injure the wings or legs of the insects. About oneothird of Mr. Elliot’s time was devoued to birds. In his first lecture he pointed out the oh- jects and benefits of the study of birds also the pleasure of the study. The work is field work observing. noting time and place. For the work in our public schools a bird calendar of the following heads: I. Name of bird. II. When first seen. III. How many seen. IV. \Vhen next seen. V. When it. became common. VI. When last seen. VII. Is in common or rare? VIII. Does it breed near its sta tion? IX. Remarks. Bird Neighbors was recommended as literature. In his first lecture Mr. Scott stated that we must know the purpose be- fore there can be definite plans and the teacher must be careful to test the means or devices. Another fact noted was that it is not what a pupil knows but how he knows it. During his lecture on plants we studied first the plant as a whole, its functions and its life relations. When this was finished we took the parts of the plant in the following order: root, stem, buds, leaves, flowers and seed. Germination was also given a place. By request Mr. Scott devoted some time to grafting. , When collecting you should, where ipossible, collect, root and shoot. and In these lectures the work was taken objectively, usually from plants secured on our excursion. \Vhen the desired plant could not be obtained Mr. Scott made use of his collection. Here again the making of acollection confronts us. In making a collection of plants the following are necessary : a good knife, a trowel with a strong shoul- der and a good handle (get this made at a blacksmith’s), a vasoulum or close tin box about 18" long is found very useful in collecting fresh plants.

Insect powder placed in the reposi- tory is found to be very effective In making a collection be careful that the more show of a collection is not the end, but instead it should be only a means of promoting the in- terests of the subject. Making a col- lection affords the teacher great op- portumties of becoming acquainted with the character of the pupils. The last day at the close of the regular work we assembled in one room where we were addressed by the staff and Mr. Miller. Mr. Mil. lar’s remarks may be summed up in the fact that we are not to negleCL the older studies in our desire to get along with the new. A few of the pupils spoke in behalf of the pupils and they highly praised the hufight they had been given of the work. But teachers and pupils had a mutual feeling that the time was too short. Juet now. when our readers are considering the question of their reading for the fall and winter months. it seems Opportune to call attention to’l‘he Weekly Globe and Canada Farmer, the leading illustrat- ed family newspaper of Canada. Each week it gives all the news in an easily accessible form, and includes a beautifully illustrated magazine section. Its able editorials have high literary quality. and summarize cur- rent public Opinion Its agricultural commercial and home maker’s depart. ments are carefully written, and sup- ply valuable information for the farmer and his household. Its stories, leisure honr reading, and special tapics for children and young people make it a welcome visitor to the family circle Its page of select- ed western news appeals to all who are interested in the growing west. In brief, the historv of The Weekly Globe and Canada Farmer, covering a period of over sixty years, together with its high character. interest and value to readers of all ages make it one of the greatest and most popular family newspapers published in Can- a’la. A case of small pox has developed in the house of Henry Schenk. a farmer residing on lot ‘22, Centre Road, Mono. A son of Schenk took ill and Drs Island, of Rosemont, and Rooney. of Shelburne, Were called in and diagnosed the case as small pox. The case is said to be quite a seveFe one. but the authorities lost no time and have taken everv precaution to keep the disease from Spreading. The house and family have been iso- lated and arrangements have been made to handle the case. A strict quarantine will be maintained and it may be necessary to vaccinate the pe0ple of the neighborhood. Dr. Murray of Toronto is in attendance. Free Press. REV. W. L.
