THE EDITOR TALKS The editor unfortunately overlooked a statement that was somewhat çaixed and erroneous and wrongly placed in this column column last week in one edition. The information information was received from ' a roan who should know the facts, and his statement was accepted without question. The by.- law authorizing the issue of waterworks and sewage debentures named $150,000-- not $200,000 as was mentioned. We understand that sflme $31,000 worth of the debentures were sold at or near par, and the balance of the issue to Ames & Co at about 88c on the $. Treasurer Moorcraft claims that the total sale averages averages rather better than 90c. We suppose the man who gave this office the statement statement that the loss would be $24,000 based his figures on $200,000 which the public works now in progress are estimated to cost. Anyway, it is very unfortunate that the debentures were not put on the market market earlier. '■ ; - This journal has had a monopoly of its name in Canada but a new paper to be official official organ the Moral and Social Reform Council of the Province of Manitoba is being started in Winnipeg, W. W. Buchanan Buchanan the well-known temperance advocate editor, is called The Statesman. We are glad that it is going to be the advocate advocate of a most worthy cause and wish it the success it will de. erv e. With Bro- Buchanan at the helm we are sure it will be ably condncted end become a power for good. •» - v I was looking over the week's exchanges and came across The Midland Free Press and found it chock full of fices, local and otherwise, crisp comment, and a" bright editorial page that is a gréât credit to Editor I. F. Goodfellow. Glancing over its pages I was impressed - by the high moral tone and good counsel it contained for the young people. The - influence for good of such a newspaper cannot be estimated. The good people of Midland have reason to be proud of such an excellent excellent local journal. . _ "Play the. Game" was the theme for a sermon to bowlers. Thomas Rennie, captain captain of the Canadian bowling team which toured the British Isles during the past summer, and Sir John Willison, who addressed addressed the Canadian Club here last winter, winter, shared the pulpit at Western Congregational Congregational Church,Toronto, with Rev. J. W. Pedley at the evening service Sunday last, when the pastor dealt with the time tried maxim of. sport--Play the Game. Mr. Pedley was chaplain of the Canadian .team on its trip, and Sir John Willison is prominent;among the bowling talent of the city. , Every business man and tradesman should subscribe to and regularly read his trade.paper. Canada has mâtiy 1 excellent ones. One of the good ones is The Builders' Builders' Bulletin, 263 St. James-st., Montreal, P. Q. As its name implies it is devoted to the building trades and publishes much advance information for contractors, dealers dealers and others. $2.50 a year, R. L. Werry, editor. The commonest feature of The Bulletin has been its cover, hence we were glad to receive our exchange copy last week without the cover and in our opinion it is 50 per cent more attractive. It deserves patronage by all interested in the building trade. Cobourg town council has given agrant of $300 to the local hospital. Under the new hospital act recently passed by. the Ontario Government,. hospitals in future will only receive an amount from the government equal to the municipal grants. Bowmanville council has so far refused to give any grant to the - hospital here. If the money spent in useless travelling expenses expenses and unnecessary legal feeshadbeen given to help the hospital it would have done some good. The good work done by thé hospital since i t was opened has surpassed the most sanguine expectations and ye there are men actually living here who have no.use for such an institution. . i Dr. W. E. Inspector, Bowmanville, Inspectorate No. 3. Thru the kindness of Dr. W. E.Tilley, MA, Inspector of No. 3 Inspectorate, we are enabled to present a very interessing picture in words and figures or tne number of section, teacher,.their qualification, salary, Secretary-Treasurer, and post For. purpose of comparison this information is very interesting.

It is to. be hoped that the latter classes will soon disappear, tor no board should employ less than a second class teacher. . Changes have been many since last term--40 out of a total of 68 rural school in Dr. Tilley's Inspectorate which comprises Clarke, Darlington, Manvers and uart- wright.
