Yet this institution is a prepara- tory place for urban business or pro- fession. The school staff need not necessarily have any more apprecia- tion of rural life and its problems than has the curriculum. The board controlling the school is composed en- tirely of urban people. (One must remark that the high school has not in previous years graduated farmers who might now aid in the direction of its policies!) The school takes its name from the town in which it is located and, in the eyes of town and country students alike, is an ur- ban institution. The town should be recognized as a manufacturing centre, a banking cen- tre, a trade and transportation centre, and a social service centre not only for itself but for the rural area in which it is located. On this area it is as thoroughly dependent as the area is upon it. The farmer should not be in any sense an alien, a mere spectator at events occurring in an urban setting because of convenience or accomodation. lie should, instead, possess a share in the control and resijonsibility for these things that concern him fully as much as any other. On the other hand, the town dweller owes it to himself and his community to take an intelligent and appreciative inter- est in the rural district round about. It may be the social shyness of the ^ landsman which prevents his partici- people's shops and over other i)eople's j pation in public functions. It may counters.

I TOWN AND COl NTKV Occasionally;, sonuj published ar- ticle or some public address draws attention to the relatioius. between the town and the country which sur- rounds it. (Or should we say the rural district and the town which is located within it?) There is a flare of interest for a short time until the subject gives way to other questions more to the fore in the public mind. Indeed, so little Canadian research has been carried on in the field of ru- ral six'iology that there is an absence of detailed knowledge. Our neigh- boring republic however has set us a very fine example in this regard and has instituted numerous surveys under the direction of competent scholars. Of these a summary by Dr. (Jalpin condenses much food for thought: "The banker and the storekeeper know the farmer as the goose that lays the golden egg. One problem is one of pleasing him and getting hi-: trade without building him and his mind, cajiacities and wishes into the community fabric. The farmer's money is good and necessary and mus' be obtained and his goodwill retained. But how to accomplish this object is a problem "The farmers come to town by team or automobile, do their business with- out resting place of their own, stand on other people's streets, in other a f ew^ cents a DAY "Yes. that's -vhat I work for, and I'm the mo3t wil-'iag worker you ever hired!

But here's the 1 lib. In spite of this sizable increase PRAYER WITH WORKS in the total there were actually i)",- ;iH8 fewer cars entering Ontario. There's something for the whole province to mull over and particu- larly ' hoiild the Ontario Oovernment give a little attention to the falling off in Ontario's t<nirist business in a year when the country as a whole was able to report a siibstancial gain. We believe the explanation is to be found in the fad that the provincial eiacrnnient last year curtailed its appropriation for tourist promotion, ami the program for keeping Ontario before Tiossible tourists in the I'nited St.'ites was nialerialli- cut down. This (if course was an economy gesture; as visitors last year. If ! each tourist only spent $5 while in ' Ontario â€" and that of course is a ridi- I eulously low estimate â€" the loss in ' tourist traffic to the province last ' year would amount to nearly $2,000,- I 000. It may be good business to sacri- fice such a sum to save a few thous- and dollars to the provincial trea- sury but just how it is, does not sug- gest itself to us at the moment. A friend writes us telling in the words of another the story of an an-swered prayer that had to do with animals. Her it is: A little girl's brother set a trap to catch birds. The little girl knew that it was wrong, cruel, against the law of kindness, and altogether inex- cusable. She wept at first. Then her mother noticed that she became cheerful again, and asked her the cause. "I prayed for my brother to be a better boy." "What else?" in- quired the mother. "I prayed that the trap would not catch any little birds." "What else".'" "Then I went out and kicked the old trap all to pieces." â€" Our Dumb Animals.

Origin of The Calendar I I OLTVRR'S HOME FURNISHERS announcing Canadian General Electric Cooking School in the Armories Markdale , The calendar, hung on tlie wall at jtlie beginning of each year, originated ill ancient (ireece. It wa.- the custom I in those times to inform the people when the first day of the month oc- lurreil. This was done either by her- alds sent through the streets of the i cities anil towns pioclaiming the date 1 oi- by placards or signs desplayed on I the city walls. These signs were I called kalends, meaning in (ireek, pro- I claim.

Tlie duration of the year was determined in various ways by the ancient peoples, one of the ear- liest methods being to make it include a certain number of lunar months.
