Annual Report of the Balclutha Branch

Annual Report of the Balclutha Branch.

In submitting the Fifth Annual Report of this Branch of the Institute, your Committee have to state that we began the year with nineteen members, four of whom were of other professions. Three of our members, who were regular in their attendance at our meetings, have removed to other districts; but their places have been filled by others, who are likely to take an active part in the affairs of the Institute. Seven meetings have been held during the year; but these have not been quite so well attended as those of last year. Four papers of great interest have been read, viz., on "The Phonic system of teaching beginners to read," by Mr. Grigor; "The reading of the Bible in Schools," by Mr. McColl; "The choice of a Profession by the Young, and our duties as Teachers in this matter," by Mr. Wad-dell; "School Prizes," by Mr. McEwen.

James McNeur,

Secretary.
