bio that as a country wo have been looking at our national railway problem lately from too narrow a viewpoint tho fact that for several years tho expenditures have exceeded tho receipts has called up wholesale condemnation of govern- meat ownership it should bo remembered that tho development of the dountry has been greatly ex tended and many now sections have been opened up for settlement duo to the war so mo branch lines that were under construction in 1011 1012 and 10p have just recently been completed if tho now towns- created and newcommunities established are considered it will bo roadily seen that the value of a railway to a country like canada cannot be measured by its net earnings its effect on tho national welfare must do kept in mind canada now enjoys better transportation

university has formulated a plan by which public school teachers in ontario who are ambitious to proceed to an arts degree without discontinuing their teaching may do so the teachers course has been recently expanded so as to allow for moro options than have been practicable in tho past this expansion i as been mado possible because of tho greatly in creased number of teachers who aro now taking ad vantage of the service whlcb tho provincial univer sity offers them the standard of tho course has not been lowered in any way no teacher has ever asked far a course less difficult than that taken by students m regular attendance but a great choice of subjects is nowprovided a degree thus won extra murally by the hard work necessary to a non resident student is just as worthy and or equally hfgh standing as those conferred upon resident students taking tho four years course without any work outside tho college editorial notes tho dominion government has entered into nego tiations with tho australian government looking to preferential trade between canada and australia this should be regarded with fnynr by our manufac turers in canada the provincial government has thought hotter of
