Lias occurred to to that a few Lotos and suggestions on papers at recent Xian nations of teachers might not be in crop Tubac to intending candidates for Curti Scales. Snatching a Lew Leisure moments 1 Lave prepared Tho following . Tho opening questions in both the Jim i y and july papers were calculated to draw candidates knowledge of Shorter pro esses such As multiplication by detached Pellic ints Homer s division the like Jho results with the exception of or. Johnilu Pinan s answers showed Liat methods f abbreviation had not received attention. Question 1 july tests the Powers of ran saluting from algebra Cal to Ordinary Lan Guage some fundamental theorems thus or. I2 h m i ii1 the product of the sum of two quantities the Suim of their squares increased by Mieir product is equal to the sum of their Ubes. The theorem of question 3 july is so dimple and useful that i deemed it worthy f u place on the paper if Only to bring it to the notice of candidates. Its proof jul examples of its application tediously a roved in other text books Sec London Art. Oct Scy. No. 4 of january is easily proved y this for if we denote the dividend Tho remainder must be which is equal to Zero As May be verified by substitution. No. 7 january is an Ordinary equation solved by Clearing squaring Etc. Iut the value of a solution is enhanced if instead of a More usual process a Clever artifice is employed. This was done Only by or. Chapman whose paper throughout evinced accuracy of knowledge and Good training. The following is his solution to the editor of the Jike since my last letter from Prince Albert Tho weather has Boon delightful hero. Reap ers have been busily employed in the sever Al Fields around so Busy that on the evening of Tho 19th september very Grain wits standing in the settlement Fields. Tho crops have been secured without Tho slight est harm from frosts so that it is plainly seen that in the cultivation of the soil frosts do disappear to a certain extent. In a certain number of the Standard 1 see or. Sutherland giving a prosperous account of Prince Albert Settle rent in which he makes mention of Tho aristocracy of Tho place As building houses Only or. Sutherland ought to know that this class of the people Aro capable of building houses at any time or in any Placa they wish to. To strengthen his letter i Khali Here notice some More who Aro also build ing houses and who came to this place with very Little Money a few years since and who appear to to too inferior for or. Suther land s pen. These Are messes. F. Miller Alex. Campbell Clarke w. Lyttle Jas. Ste Venson Joe Mcfarland Macareo Finlay and partner w. Tiyunn Dickens w. Bishop w. Driver Wilfred. Anderson and others. Also an additional English Church and about thirty new building on the South Branch. There also have bean broken up of new land in the place during summer 875 acres. From these facts your numerous readers will learn that the enterprising people of Princo Albert settlement Are determined to furnish Tho North West Terri tories with All the country produce that will be required for Many years to come oven should More people Como to inhabit this Noble land of destiny Tho Garden of the North West. Ii was after saying Good Bye to those of my friends that i quilted Princo Albert for a season. Travelling East there is a splendid farming country about and in the Touchwood Hills also along the broken Arm Creek the Bird Tail Creek and along the Shoal Lake and Tho Little Sas Katche finally entering Tho province of it is something surprising to Sac on either bide of the cart Trail Fields of wheat Oats and Barley in such great numbers where but a few years ago this part of the country was wild and under wild Hizy. Reaching the capital safely and Leav ing it again for a season i must Here acknowledge that i am leaving a Good and great country capable of locating Many millions of individuals yet unborn.

The artifice of adding and subtracting fully explained in Colenso Art. 85 but much More generally and elegantly in uni Don Art. 28 a in which to. 0 july is proved. London s proof of no. To january is equally elegant and simple. The treatment oils o. Y july would Indi Cate a poverty of the words show Why the method of substitution fails in this should have pre vented them from trying that method and yet in the lace of such a warning laborious substitutions were ending Only in failure. It should have shown them Chat lie equations being put in the Standard Lorin the second was i Factor of the first. These factors equated to Cru give the solutions required. The questions a progression brought out the fact that the mathematical Power of the candidates depended More upon their Mem ories Titan upon their ability to deduce from list principles. For instance How to sum a series in a. P. Was net shown by any but or. Chapman though in the problem about the spelling and in that about the of Winnipeg the formula m Ere remembered and the Given numbers fitted into them in accordance.
