Prof. llcClements' illustrated talk on Nature Study was very delightful. Prof. T. F. Mcllwraith of Toronto, gave us a very excellent illustrated lecture on Eskimo customs and habits.

PUBLIC SPEAKERS AND DEBATERS lContinued from Page 2-ll The Stratford-Hamilton meet found the results exactly reversed. Miss Daisy Lawson and Nlr, .lohn llodgson, eloquently supporting the negative side of the subject, Resolved that two consecutive years' training at Normal School is preferable to the present system of granting permanent certificates , were the losers. Miss Anna Urchard, HA., held the rapt attention of both judges and audience by her treatment of the subject, The value of good pictures . Although Mr. Charles Hunter gave a very able speech on a difli- cult subject, the decision in the boys' contest went to Stratford. The staff and students of Hamilton Normal School deeply appreciate the way in which these young men and women have given unstintingly of their time and talents to represent the school so well. They have done credit to our school and to themselves. llut no article on this subject would be complete without special mention of Mr. bl. ll. Davidson, Ma-X., l5.Paed., who has devoted much time and effort to the training of our speakers, and to whom we owe much of their success in this field. NVe realize our debt and say whole-heartedly: Thank you, Mr. Davidson l MARGARET MASTERS. Pugfr Fifty-eight
