R. how well one of the three big railway companies has carried out its program.. "Since the beginning of the season," said Sir William, "we have spent an average of four million dollars a month. We had built in main lines and branches up to, the first of September a little more than 840 miles. By the. end of the season we will have added between one thousand and eleven hundred miles to the truckage in the Dominion. We will -have completed completed by then the laying of track on the line -between Port Arthur and Sudbury which will connect our Western arid Eastern Eastern systems and give the country another Transcontinental line, between East and West. By the end of the year there will remain but a fifty mile gap-to be finished between Edmonton and the Pacific Coast. We have had upwards of 25,000 men employed employed on our constrtiction works and at times were held up by shortage of labor."

TO A LITTLE SCHOOL-GIRL [Written many years after her death on observing a sunset over her old homestead homestead on a hill west of Bowmanville.] Over the fields and the cedar vale I look, with the longing of tender Years; Alas, that our first-loved visions fail, . And we see them only thru wistful tears. The sunset streams its crimson' and gold On the sward-crowned ridge of the western hill, The evening calm steals over the wold I pause in the path, and my heart is still. Her natal cottage can yet be seen, Half-hid in the clingwood of the slope- The.red roof glistens with distant sheen' Like the blush of a long-lost luring hope* O hush of the hill I O whisper low ! That wakens the name of a damsel dear ! Sweet mem'rys haze burns into the glow Of the sky-fire limning her image clear. O shining bliss qf my school-days dead ! The windows are flashing, the .gables - gleam I Her nut-brown tresses blow round her head, The rose of her cheek blooms fresh my dream.

Hospital interests are receiving much greater attention in this country than ever before as well as in Bowmanvillq. A big hospital convention was held in Toronto Toronto this week and in addressing the seventh annual conference of the Canadian Canadian Hospital Association at the Toronto General Hospital the president, H. A. Boyce, M. D., of Kingston General Hospital Hospital emphasized the necessity for a keen business attitude regarding financial affairs affairs in hospitals. "If one patient cannot pay $9 a week" he said, "charge those who can pay. so that there may be a reasonable reasonable surplus available to carry on the work of the institution. Possibly the most Important question to be dealt with was the necessity for educating educating the public in health matters.. It scented to him that medical health officers even in rural districts should be sufficiently sufficiently paid to be independent of private practice. If their charge was not a large one, he thought they might occupy their time to much good purpose by delivering illustrated lectures on hygiene and acting as medical Inspectors of schools. The necessity for this was evidenced by the fact that there had been as many cases of typhoid fever in Ontario last year asdh the whole of Germany. Curtailment of the sale-of patent medicines medicines containing morphine and other dangerous drugs, proper planning of hos- pitals^nd the necessity for publicity concerning concerning hospital affairs, were some of the other important questions dealt with in President Bryce's address. Between Women's Health or Suffering The main reason why so many women suffer greatly at times is because of a run-down condition. condition.

The number of New members who have come into The Statesman family circle the past few weeks is most encouraging as it shows that this great family journal is appreciated. . It may not -be known to some of our néwer readers that subscriptions are taken at The Statesman Office for all newspapers newspapers and magazines; A very large business business is done with Toronto and Montreal papers, especially. Advertisements are taken for all daily and weekly papers, too --teachers, wanted, farms for sale or rent, etc. Our subscribers take advantage of our clubbing rates which v in mo ,t cases are lower than publishers' rates. See our clubbing list elsewhere in this journal. The present is a favorable season to subscribe for any publications that are not being taken now as the balancé of tfre year is free with many publishers to new subscribers for 1914. The Weekly Globe, Mail, Sun, Guardian* Youth's Companion and some others are . being sent to new subscribers for next year free for balance of 1913. • Orders should be sent to M. A. James & Son, Publishers, Bowmanville, Ont. We have no agents. MadiL These People. "Clothes don't. make the quoted a sage. ; "They made me !" said a tailor. . .. . "Where ahoulB T "b* .if it for shits chimed in- lyer. man,' retired : wasn a young That was a touch' -of pathos In Port Hope at the close of the union convention when inspectors and teachers from the three inspectorates of Northumberland snd Durham joined heartily in singing Auld Lang Syrie after two days of very pleasant association. Every member felt sorry that the time to separate had come for In the natural order of events ' there is no union here of hearts that finds not here and end." The National Anthem followed, followed, both being very heartily sung, the singing being led by Mr. Geo. J. Anderson, Cobourg. * The convention was marked by a degree of socialibity and formation of friendships among young persons engaged engaged in a common calling and that the noblest in which human beings can engage. engage. - ; The executive are possibly too modest in not giving sufficient publicity to -the annual meeting for the bare dates was the only information given out to counties', newspapers in time for notice in the issues the week before the convention. Editors are always glad to help along every effort of school teachers and the meetings for two days of 250 teachers in a town is of no small moment, and as we only saw three citizens of Port Hope at the publjc ses- sioris-w'e suppose the reason was that the citizens were unaware of their privileges. The new central school building in which the convention was held is a beau- tifuul structure, and the internal equipment equipment is excellent and modern. The class rooms are well lighted and - cheerful and occupy two floors.. The basement* covered covered with concrete floor, contains the closets and play rooms. The only fault to find is with the site, and how the board ever decided to build a $42,000 school in such a-location is past our comprehension. It is hidden from view of passers-by by a church on the street on which it is built until they come within a few yards of it, and then to reach it a descent of several steps is necessary. The opposite side of the same street would have made an admirable admirable site if it could have been obtained. obtained. The play ground in rear of school is not more than quarter large enough for such a large number of scholars. The Principal of Port Hope Public schools is Mr. R. Gillies who receives a salary of $1200 and has been thirteen years a teacher there. He was most attentive attentive to the needs and comforts of the association, and earned the hearty thanks of the teachers for liis efforts in their bè- half. Naturally, Mr. Gillies is very proud of the new school, and he has a faithful and loyal staff of teachers under his supervision. supervision. Principal Gillies has . the distinction distinction of passing a greater percentage of candidates at entrance examination annually annually than any other teacher in the Province, Province, so far as wé have heard. Citizens of the hillside town deserve high commendation commendation for the value they place on education education and the good salaries they pay their teachers. The public school staff consists of Robert Robert Gillies, Principal, and Misses Mary Strickland, Elizabeth Walker, Gertrude M. Sing, Edith White, Ethèlke "Stratton, Phyllis M. Smith, lean JI. Dodds, Pearl Purser, Violet A. Scott, Mary McCallum, Mary E. Mounsey, Joy Nichols, Florence Montgomery, and Mrs. Norma G. Jackson. The Port Hope high school which is a comparatively new building is now too small for the attendance and departmental requirements. This town has been singularly singularly fortunate in the succession of high school masters it has had. The late Adam Purslow, M. A., was a clever man and an excellent teacher. He was for many years at the head of the high school. The present Principal is Mr. E. E. Snider, B. A., arid he is splendidly maintaining maintaining the high standing of the school. We have read with unusual interest high school Inspector J. A. Houston's last report, report, as published recently in The Daily Guide, in which he is pleased to continue the school as an Approved School, "largely "largely owing to the excellent work of the teachers" and further on Inspector Houston Houston says: "Conditions here, so far as -they can be controlled by the teachers, are good. The. organization ; and management management leave -little to be desired,- and" the general tone of the school impresses, a visitor very favorably." All of which must be very gratifying to the denizens of the Ganeraska valley. The Convention endorsed several resolutions resolutions adopted by the Ontario Educational Educational Association and as some of them are important we give a summary of the more outstanding ones: * The program of studies in public schools is to remain as now; that the work b'e clearly defined and that text books be on basis of the work so defined, that it is urgently desirable that the proposed course of study be very materially lightened; lightened; that a detailed syllabus of public school work, logical in arrangement and reasonable in amount, be prepared, embracing embracing a thoro elementary knowledge in those subjects which shall form a ftninda- ' tion for a good general educa-tjon/' The last two clauses will - meet with very general approval for the course of study is becoming loaded every year until it is very much overloaded., Every man with a fad wants the Department to adopt his new idea and too often, we fear, gets the ear of the powers that be there! - A committee of three was suggested to formulate a. plan for organizing a "Good Manners Circle" , in public ^schools, whatever whatever this may mean. /~? That teachers be consulted in preparation preparation and selection of text books and that a year's notice be given of any change or revision. " "x.-- An attack on the spirit of militarism is apparent in this resolution: "That we disapprove of the inclusion in our Readers of selections containing slang and incorrect English, and two many selections that breathe too much of the spirit of war."
