The correct use of the asparagus cutter is shown in this Garden- Graph. First, thrust the blade of the asparagus knife down vertical- ly beside the stalk to be cut. Next slant the knife away from the stalk, then down again against the stalk, cutting it cleanly. It is best, therefore, to use a proper asparagus cutter, rather than a kitchen knife. Keep the V- shaped blade of the asparagus cut- ter clean and sharp so it will cut, rather than tear or chew oft the stalk. As the asparagus has so many stalks, some of which appear above the soil, and others hidden below, great care should be taken when cutting off one stalk not to injure several other hidden ones at the same time. Correct cutting of asparagus Soon it will he the asparagus season, and the pleasure of bringing in fresh asparagus from one's own vegetable garden can be enhanced if the proper cutting method is us- ed.

CUTT I N6 POSITION FOR ASPARAGUS 1/ N I FE Hamilton, Canada I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Bromley, Chairman of the Management Committee of the Board, and Mr. Dymond." I trust that it will be possible for the Board to have Shop Work and Home Economics taught next year. The pupils merit commendation for their good deportment andnalso for their courteous bearing towards their teachers. Almost without ex- ception, they seem to be interested in the varied programme of school work and extra-curricular activi- ties. The Principal is trying to preserve a fine balance between these two types of education. The fine accommodations not only afford the teachers and pupils every facility in their work, but they are also having an influence in fostering in the latter, probably more or less unconsciously, a love of beauty, neatness and order. The value of the unconscious education that is possible through beauty of surroundings cannot be over-esti- mated. The splendid building and the reasonably adequate equipment in- dicate very clearly that the people of Grimsby and the surrounding country appreciate their responsi- bility to the future through the ris- ing generation; and it must be a source of satisfaction to them to know that opportunities which have been provided for the boys and girls at so high a cost are not be- ing neglected. The general tone of the school is healthy and indicates that harmony prevails among the teachers as well as co-operation between them and their pupils. In every class that I visited there was evidence of inter- est in the work and appreciation on the part of the pupils of the pains- taking efforts of their teachers. Special aptitude for teaching and years of experience have given to Principal Smith more than ordin- ary power in the classroom and keenness of insight into the various problems of organization and ad- ministration that have to be solved in any school during the course of a year. Grimsby High School is fort- unate, therefore, in having his ser- vices, and the present condition of the school is a fine tribute to his worth as a teacher and as a princi- pal. experimental work in science are. as a rule, carefully made and re- tlect the value of supervision and guidance. The drawings are accur- ate and neatly labelled. The work that is being done in Music, both in the Lower School classes and in the senior divisions of the school, merit special mention; also the work in Physical Education. The spelling of the pupils in Grade IX is a little under the aver- age, but their reading and writing are fairly good. As -detinite in- struction is given in these subjects, considerable progress should be made in them by the pupils during the remaning months of the school year. The completed work in book- keeping is satisfactory in amount and good in quality. The teacher in Art is handling the new course very well. The pupils are interest- ed in it, and already they have completed some very good work along creative and imaginative atiistri"Iltrertgtsttrds ‘pr practical and I discussed methods with the in- dividual teachers and also at a meeting of the staff. The Principal knows my opinion of the work of each teacher. _ The teachers or this school are making careful preparation for the work of each day and are seeking to use methods that will challenge the attention of the pupils and arouse their interest in subjects under consideration. The lessons and parts of lessons that were ob- served were, for the most part, good or excellent. None of the teaching could be regarded as poor. The staff is legally qualified and the discipline is good . There are 82 boys and 90 girls in regular at- tendance. Text books are all auth- orized and the text books are neat. Fire drill is practiced once a month. The janitor is giving good service. l Division of the duties among the ‘teachers has been carefully distri- buted. The principal has prepared; an excellent time-table in which‘1 provision is made for teaching a wide range of subjects. He showed; wisdom in making two classes ofi the pupils of Grade IX. In the (,ie,',t,i and second years a number of new students are begun and it is impor- tant to have the classes small enough to permit the teacher to give individual help when it is needed. I Useful additions have been made to the library and to two other de- partments of the equipment. The equipment is reasonably adequate for the needs of the school. It is desirable, however, to make some additions to the library every year. A few new books, whether for sup- plementary reading or for refer- ence, will stimulate the interest in' the worth-while books in the li- brary.

GRIMSBY HIGH SCHOOL THE GRIMSBY INDEPENDENT There is a bassinette in one cor- ner of the room and the girls are taught how to properly make a bed. This bassinette, springs and mattress, were all made by the boys in the manual training room and it is just about as well finish- ed a piece of furniture as you would buy from a store. A visit to the school to witness these young lads and girls at work will well repay you as well as giv- ing you some definite idea as to as at home. They are also taught how to properly and neatly do oth- er household work. Dry, rotted shingles catch fire like kindling!

The same applies to the young girls who are being trained in the domestic science class. The science room is equipped with a natural gas range, cooking utensils, dishes of all kinds and the little ladies are being taught cookery just the same It is hard to describe on paper the work that those young lads are doing. You would have to see them actually at work and see their tin- ished product to really appreciate the development that is taking place among them along mechani- cal lines. _ Many of the book racks and shelves being used in the class rooms of the two public schools were built and painted toy the boys and to the ordinary observer would appear to have been built by a journeyman carpenter. They make tables of all sizes, jardiniere stands, book racks, and many other useful household arti- cles which they are allowed to take home when finished. They also take lessons in painting the articles they build and they do a good job of that, too. " Guelph Street Preston, Ont. IMllltllSTMllNlll The work that these young boys are doing is really remarkable. They have one lathe and one circu- lar saw to work with; all kinds of hand planes, hand saws, hammers and other tools and they have con- structed some pieces of work that would do credit to a full-fledged cabinet maker. school and must pay attention-to his other school work. The pupils get a total of one hour a week in the manual training room, during regular school hours, but are privileged to stay after school hours and on Saturday and con- tinue their work if they so desire, and a great percentage of them do so. t: 6 ' ma uuvv new“ , MANUAL TRAINING (Continued from page 1) ’Zmited J, ff/ii/i/iii' M MW ',///fji)i///j. , R ETA L VM/fl/ZGM/é/ 1,/' oo FIN p' if/iii/i/i/ii/i/i' ’//;/j////////////N%,l//%/////I%/////j Factories also at Montreal and Toronto.
