No, if the age is net given over to crass materialism, it must be admitted that there is something behind the elect- ron-Mind. And what is Mmnd? Mind is eternal. Nothing bas exist- ed without first being thought of by Eternal Mind. How far is that re- moved from God? COST 0F NEWSPAPERS Mr. G. M. McTaggart, Circulation Manager of The Mail & Empire, Tor- onto, has this to say about the hîgh cost of production of newspapers: "While there bas been a reduction in the priceof newsprint; ink and other publishing costs are as high or high- er than ever. In 1920 the postal rate for newspapers was Y4c per l. which amounted to approximately 30c per subscriber per year. The rate to-day is 1i'e per lb.1 (and there ap- pears to be no likelihood ýof a lower rate) which approximates $1.80 per customer per year, an increase of $1.50 on each subscrîption. It act- ually costs more to-day to print and place our publication in the hands of Our readers than at any previous time. That, in a nutshell, is the reason we, in common with other ,Canadian daily newspapers, have found it impossible to reduce the price, much as we would like to". WE GET WHAT WE PAY FOR Hon. Mr. Fisher, Minister of Edu- cation in the British House of Parlia- ment, speaking during the course of the Great War, on the question of post-war education, said: "That nation which, after the war, employs the best teachers with the highest pay ànd as a part of the best school system will be the best govera- ed and, therefore, the greatest nation. 0f that, I am absolutely certain. No people which doës not respect edu- cation will demand and support good goverament, and if there is not a vital impulse running through its edu- cation the people of no nation can he expected to respect it. "I be- lieve, and an iacreasing number of other 'people believe, that education lies at the root of happinéss for every people. Worthy education is impossible where inferiîor teaching forces are employed, 'aad only infer- lor teaching forces can be secured Iwhere inferior pay is offered. Where teaching is infeiior, good government cannot be expected". THE SPELLING MATCH Publie School Teachers, Attention! The Family Herald says that a newspaper office, above ahl other places, is the centre towards which badly spelled and badly constructed communications seem to gravitate. Ia lhis day of advanced education and unsurpassed educational facilities and opportunities it is simply disgraceful to see the overwhelming errors that fiad their wayinto contributions sent to the editor's desk, You pick up your paper and seldom deteet a mis- take, nlthough it is popularly agreed that an absolutely perfect book or paper was ever, yet rua off the press. At the same time it is a rare thing to fiad an original article that doès flot need considerable editiag. The average junior f armer may not see how this can interest him very mach and yet it does. You will soon be taking your place la the Boys' or Girls' Club. You will have to write letters, fill up forms, make reports and maybe you will want to se nd an article to the Herald about ,lie success of your club or your own achievements. If you cannot spell "Ayrshire", "Berkshire", "Leicester", "Holstein", "Percheron" or "Wyan- dotte", how are you going to writel about your live stock? Spelling is important and grammar1 is important and thiese can be taken up in the club meetings to good ad- vantage. When your father and mother were your age there was no better fun than the spelling match, the singing school, the husking bee and the paring bee. Nearly, if -not quite, aIl of theae institutions have gone out of style. One of them, at least, should he re- vived and re-established through6ut the country.- That is, the spelling match. Indeed, I have heard that many "spelling matches" have been held during the past winter and it may not be too late yet, to have an eveaing when this form of entertain- ment would be the main attraction. Have words to spell that are used la agriculture, as'much as possible,-and there would be ao harm in mixing ia a few techaical words, though they night be kept together for a special class, as it would hardly be fair to expect some people, who could mast- er ordinary words to tackle the more techaical terms.- The words should be taken from a f arm paper beingl selected by someone who kaows thel AUNT SUSAN'S ADVICE Conidenins Gossip ta a Place Un- named. Did you ever know a woman to acknowledge being a gossip? I have neyer known one to do so. Yet, some folk do a lot of it. The at- mosphere is often surcharged with it in some communities. But take my acivice, Tny dear niece, and let others do as they wîll, but as for yourself, I say, Don't gossip; it is always ili- fiavored. Gossip and talk are two differeat things; gossip is tattling, and one geaerally associates it with idleness, or emptyf-headedness. Whether it is eîther of these two faults or not it is certainly degrading and belittling. Oftentimes it is not whnt we say but how we say it that conveys to the eager listLener an exaggerated idea of a neîghbor's, shortcomings.
