AMOcUte Editor ntaiiitain the ancient THE CIVIL WAR AND ITS f POSSIBLE SEQUEL The civil war in Spain appears to be near a clos* in ita larger aspects. The rebels have niaiiajred, by the aid of near-by Nazi sympathisers, to get possession of a large proportion of pivotal principalities, and are busily engag«d, at the time of writing, in surrounding the capital. It will be many a year before Spain will recover from the death and destruction inci- dent to the struggle. Indeed, it is hardly possible that the beautiful structures of the fine cities of the country will be replaced, and it is doubtful if there will be an early aml- rtie etforts to nation in its integrity. Some niore effective means may now be devisi'd for carrying out the de- clared ot)jects of the League, with probability that there will be united action in dealing with them. Canada's position has already been set forth by Parliament, and it was emphasized by the Premier on his departure for Geneva. Canadians desire to be at poace with the peoples of all lands, and to trade with them on fair terms at all times. Never again will we 4esire to see war resorted to in the settlement of territorial disputes, knowing, as it has again and again been demonstrated, that, win or lose, every participant is a sufferer. The results in Spain, for example, are emphasizing this view, and ought to greatly influence the League in their delibt-rations, and supply food for thought to those rulers in the earth who are daily threatening that they mean to have their way at all hazards.

Of course it can, and of course it does. The ar. School is much more than a factory. It is the second parent of the child and should step in when real parents fall down on their job. IThe School is Trustee for the child, Trustee to the parents, to the State, to the Future. England and Wales learned long ago the wastefulness of trying to teach spelling or geography to children who had had n© breakfast Last year School Boards provided nearly seventy million of meals to more than four hundred thousand English children. So we who are superintendents or trustees or teachers must first of all see that children are not harmed, not harmed much, by the school and e- condly, we must watch and care that children are not neglected in their homes, but have a decent break. But these two duties, doing no harm, and patching up defects, are both negative, and do not glimpse the fine vision of body and mind develop. \ng in harmony. To think of health as a mere absence of illness or defect or crippling or starvation is a very poor conception. Health should be a positive, radiant, physical glory. What are we doing for the boys and girls who are not handicapped? What are we doing for all boys and girls as Teacher (severely): "You are half an hour late this morning."

CANADA AND THE LEAGUE The Dominion Prime Minister, Mr. King, is on his way to Geneva, with two of his Ministeia and some govern- mental experts, to take part in the League of Nations, which may or may not rcs(^vo on a "Nw Deal." If the League gets another start it i.s to be W)|ie<i tkat its decisions will command more respect than was given to it ia recent crises by .some of its members. There can be no denying that in deal- ing with some (|Uestions of interna- tional imiwrtance the League has been Among other changes the now gov- ernment of Quebec Province has de. creed that "Quebec House" in the Biitish nietropoiis shall be abolished. This is following the example of the Ontario Government which, on com- ing into power, sold off Ontario's head(iuarters in London, with its office holders and j)araphenalia. There was considerable criticism when the Ont- •iuio reform was undertaken, but it was warranted. Neither Ontario nor Quebec requires expensive premises for governing or display purposes, in these times of necessity for cconom- i U'al miKiiagenient. Well managed as it is, the head<iuarters of the Domin. ion, advantageously carried on in the fills' all Canada.

It is a nec- essary evil, that may some day, if we are open-minded, evolve into a nec- essary good, without the evil. What can we do to keep the good and cut out the evil ? What can we re- port, school by school, about general cleanness, cleanness of walls and floors, cleanness of toilets and water supplies and places to wash? What albout infections and disinfections? What about lighting and ventilation? What about those fetters of the squirming little bodies, the desks? Are they as elastic as possible? Are normal average boys and girls? the standards of the school in clean- liness and conveniences and sanitation the standards of good homes, or of not very good homes, or are they the standards of very poor homes ? Is the school levelling housing standards up, or levelling them down? What about fatigue? I would like to have it enacted tl^^t a school trus- tee when he assumes office should put in a day at school. In the country he might start off some time after seven-thirty with the school van and get back near five-thirty, with a few chores and homework to do. I'm sure he would slope the homework and go to bed. Work is good, but over- work is not. Play is good, but over- play is not. Fatigue kills health, Well.then, the first principle is to do no harm, to send out the child at least without injury and without much disadvantage. For this little ehild who comes to us trailing its clouds of Glory from God who is its home, the School must first of all be made safe â€" sanitary, clean, decent â€" safe. So far we have presumed that the child comes to school a good physical animal, well f*d and clothed and eared for. What if this is not the case? What if he comes half-starved, or half choked by tonsils and adenoids, or with neglected teeth troubling him "Elsie, if you throw any more mud at Edwina," cried Nurse, "I shall pack you off to bed without supper." "All right," said Elsie, "I'll throw some mud after supper." Auction Sale Farm Stock and Implements, Ete. J. A.
