THE MANUAL TRAINING;SCHOOL.

—_—_———

Lord Minto’s Speech---Professor Robertson.

At Ottawa a few days ago, Lord {into opened the Manual training shed in that city by ihe f Sir W. C. McDonaid. » of his speech he said: ull know that the people of Canada are to be congratu ated upon the splendid opportunities which ex st for the education of the childran and youth of the country. The pro- gress of the Dominion depends chief- by upon the intelligence, the honesty andthe ability ct its citizens, and these qualities, together with habits of perseverance and thrift, are most certainly inculcated and developed during the early years of life when the minds and the bodies of the pupils are plastic under the training influence af skilful teachers.

fy acomparatively new coun ry hke this it is of the utmost importa icc hat institutions of learning and cours es of study should provide for th thorough education of those who are te follow any profession; andit is no less in the highest interests of the state that the elementary schools sfould give the best possible educa- tion to those children whose school life ends when they leave the public school. A British report on this tub- ect has lately very truly said: “Tue progress of the people in wealth and matérial prosperity must largely de- pend on the education given in the primary schools.”

In accordance with this view, during gecent years the educational authori- Ses in the leading countries of Ku sope and also in the Unitcd States fave been supplementing the course of study from text books with various forms of manual exercises and object lessons; as aftercareful consideration they have found that this class of taining tends immensely to develop) the most useful faculties of the pupils, | which are neg'ected when the educa won ischiefly of a receptive char acter from books.

Tn this age of notabie progress in| the various fields of human activity, it} %& nota matter for surprise that edu-| ators should express the opinion from time te time, that educationa! | methods require to be improved to) meet changed and still changing con- | ditions. Evidently there will not be a fina'sty to the process or methods of} education so long as there are advanc- 2s In civilization, in science and in Auman achievements.

M-. Woodward made every effort to fiad a cure for his trouble.

He says, ‘‘ I tried every thing | ever heard of, but no cure. Last ‘fall | heard about Dodd's Kidney

remedies. I would willingly pay two dollars a box rather than be without Dodd’s Kidney Pills in the house.’’
