thursday evenings or while reading the rural weeklies these days we cannot very well but leel proud of the smaller localities throughout jour province when the cities discusepos war programs they apparently base their idea on now much help they will be able to get from the dominion government and their idea of the i amount of that help that they expect to get lsn t small at all however it is quite different out in the smaller com munities they figure on some lm- iprovemcnts that will help take up the expected slack in employment after i the war and ihev never think of ask- ing ottawa to help out at all but thoj are either purchasing victory bonds to iilnnrfce the proposed project or arc arranging some other local mode of supplying the wherewithall to mett those post war project expenses man of us at times admire some fancy this that or the other thing that we see in the cities but when we recal thit we ourselves helped pay tor it through our contributions to the government btrong box it changes the outlook altogether it is lery easy to make improvements if we canx- rae to have meone else provide the funds to do o but on the other hand we imagine we would think more of those improvements if we had paid the whole shot ourselves it is not unlike the smul boj that gets a baseball bat handed to him ns a present he docsnl tak- as good cre ci that bat as he would hare had he to hoe turnips or cut gra to earn the money to pur chase it examination time has arrived once more rt is so easy to con gratulate those sucessful students and yet it is the ones that all to make tin grade that really need the encouragement we sometimes forget that it is no disgrace to fall and so often we find that failures are respon sible for so many later on becoming a real success in their particular line in fact many of us would never have amounted to very much had we never foiled we have only to think of dieppe along with the present invasion to prove that point we suppose that most students would like to be the or in their class with the best marks in fact most parents would like to see tnelr children attain those honors or perhaps win some scholarship if there is one available we always fed sorry for the student that is unfortunate enough to win a scholarship the win ner of such honors is always expected to be more clever than any one else ever afterwards and naturally they sometimes fail to keep up that record the whole trouble is they have so much farther to fall than has the or dinary student that just gets by we often recall an incident of our own when going to school we had as a class mate a young man from brantforc who wasnt too good at mathematics it to happened that we were good at that subject and this young man would come to our robin at ntght amtwe would coach him with mathematics he made fair progress and a the final examination he was good enough to get every question correct we hadnt sfotught tiiiji of fnai e is one of th latin american
