Bowmanville, Phone 89 THE EDITOR TALKS A contentcd mind is a continuai feast. Contentmcnt is the grateful, faithfui, fruitfui use of what we have, littie or rnuch. It is ta take the cup of Providence and cal1 upon the name of the Lord. What the cup contains le its contents. To get ail there is in the cul) is the act and art of con- tentment. Not ta drink because one has but haîf a cup or because one doos not like the flavor or because sameone else has silver ta one's own g1ls, is ta lose the contents; and that is the penalty if not the meaning of discontent. No one is discont- ented who enipiays and enjays to the i utmost what he has. It is high phil- o)sophy ta say: We can have just1 what we like, if wo like what we have. But this much at least can be donc1 and this is contentment-to have the9 most and best in life by making the1 most and best of what xve have. 4 Mrs. Maymo O. Thomson writes in The Rural New Yorkcr that self con- tentment is that quality which will enable one ta sit quietly with hlm- self whether he be amid the tumuit of a city or on a desert isie, and feel a sense of satisfaction in living. Wc do not wish ta convey the idea oft cgoti.sm, but of a mind 50 rich int expeiences of the whole world, and there is no need of an entertainer ta niake if e enjoyable. A wrter tells of a young man who was ta spend his if e on a farmrais- ing horses. He was asked why he continued his studios so long at cal- lege as he would have no practical use for them in the life before him. He had chosen an Arts course.* Ris reply was that he xvas "Digging a well for his soul". He or anyone who contemplatest farm life, or any life amid the sali- tudes of Nature, needs that wel where he mnay drink deep and satisfy his thirst. See the crowds o restless people scurrying about in quest of enter- tainmient. We know twa in the late thirties, living an a fanm, who nover seem able ta spend a quiet eveni ng at hbrme. They rush off night a fter, night, seeking entertainment. What1 a life they must live, knowing no peace when the day's work is done. Such people are not educated. They have na hasis for thought or earnest1 conversation; no camman graundi whene mind and loul can meet and! find contentment. When gassip runs1 dry they are lost. Thcy have no mental reservoir. They did nat dig their well deeap enaugh. As teachers and educatars, xve must direct the digging of this well, see that it is deep and reaches the true vein of neyer failing supply. It mat- tens nat whether the child has a cal- lege education bef anc him or not. He needs the well. If he is ta have only the grades, in à rural school, he needsi it ail the more, and we must give mare care ta the digging. We have met educated men and wamen, who neyer finished high school and w-e have also knawn college graduates who -were! nat educated in the true sense of the word. True educatian means more than a collego degree. It means the ability ta get the most out of life ini any en- vinonment. To do this we must think, observe and read wisely and widely. Our job is ta teach the chiid ta think, ta observe ail that passes around hlm, ta read good books with understand- ing, and ta cuil the xorth-while from the litorary trash. 1 r z * * DRS.

In regard ta the authorization of the payment of supplementary grants ta High Sehools in the Counties, as passed, the Schools cammittoe in their repart recammended the 1925 grants i)e paid in Docember ta the following High Schoois and Collegiates: Bow- mianville, Brighton, Campbelif ord, Cohourg, Coîborne, Newcastle and Part Hope, and aIea the follawing Continuation Schools, Janetville, Or- ana, Milibrook, Biackstack and Wark- worth. Tiie recommendation carried withotit amendment. Throughout the counties it wvil make a difference of about $12,000. The cause of. the delay in making the grant was due to the different boards nat finding out until late in 1926, af- ter the grants for 1926, -based on their 1925 attendance, had been pas- sed by the council. Bowmanville's share amounts ta $20145.10. COUbITIES' COUNCIL TO SPEND $250,000 FOR PAVING Part of Scugoig St. and Manvers Road To Be Paved in Bowmanville The Road and Bridge committee of the counties counicil did a very im- portant and far-neaching piece of business as fan as the noads of these caunties are concerned when they pas.sed a resolution ta raiso $250,000 hy dehentunes ta iiave the connecting linrks and extensions of county roade within the towns and villages of the United Counties. The paving is ta be completed within the next two years, and the work this year will be done in Bowmanville, Campbellfard, Millbraok and Hastings. In Bow- mianville there is ta ha twa miles of paving donc; in Millbrook twa miles; in Hastings one mile, and in Camp- beliford anc mile. Next year the work will be continued in Cobourg and the other towns and villages in the counties. One condition that aIl towns and villages agreed ta, ta get this donc, was that the-y would forego thoin county road grants for the next ton ycars. When this is finished the towns and villages wili ail have per- manent roads that shouid not require any maintenance for the next twenty years. In addition ta this recom- maendation the Road and Bridge com- mittee recommended that the sum of $125,000 ho spent on tnc county road systcm this yean and that for the next five years the sum of $150,000 ho spent annualiy. This year alrcady $4.5,000 bas heen spont by the caunty road commission in rebuilding bridges and repairing washouts caused hy the spning freshets, and with this amount having ta ho spont it left very littlo maney ta be spent an raads. The miii rate for the annual grant ta noads wili be two milîs, based an the $125,000, wbile noxt year it wili be 21/4 milis.
