Here la an article for school- ; teachers. It appeals strongly to us because because we had the experience for several several years. We see in a Lindsay newspaper that the Principal of the Collegiate Institute and , another teacher who were holidaying in the north country discovered a farmer who was shorthanded -for harvesting his hay crop, so they turned in and helped the old veteran, a British soldier soldier of 80 years. That was a good act and was for them splendid exercise. exercise. Why could not the thousands of teachers, preachers, students, professional professional men of all classes, spend a part of their holidays similarly? They will find hundreds of farmers glad of help and there is double satisfaction satisfaction in feeling that one is doing a kindness. * m * * After Sept. 16th we are to have in Ontario what are to be known as "Standard hotels"--all temperance houses of accommodation very similar to the temperance hotels throughout the British Isles. If they are up to the standard of the Old Country hostel ries they will be homes and comfortable--"Homes away from Home" "they are often termed in their booklets. Here is what the Canadian standard hotel must be: In addition to being a suitable place for public accommodation, each standard standard hotel shall be a well-appointed eating house. Applications for licenses licenses for a hotel should be made to the Board through the Lise ease Inspector not later than August 15th for the license beginning Sept. 16th, 1916. License fees are $1. Every hotel I must keep a supply of pure, cold I drinking water, conveniently placed | for guests. Every guest room shall ! have a bolt on inner side of every i door. Fire escape signs must be j prominently displayed, and ropes ; must be placed at windows of every j bedroom. Liquor must not be sold, i served or kept on the premises. No ' disorderly conduct, gambling or r drunkenness permitted. | < * * * | Liquor dealers are out after new j business if we may judge by the large : display advertisements with price lists of the various brands of liquors, i Very few weekly newspapers will ac- ' cept liquor advertisements, but sever- : al city dailies contain thertfj and al- ■ ways in prominent positions on the page. Liquor business will die a na- i tural death unless an army of re- : emits is secured constantly. Old ropers die and young men must be found to take their places. Here ia ■ a theory advanced by the Christian Guardian which as an advertising man of long experience we strongly endorse. Parents and guardians and all others responsible for the character character of a home should ponder seriously seriously and long the advisability of allowing allowing such newspapers into their family circles: "For it is to be remembered remembered that liquor advertising does create a don and for liquor. Such : advertising does not merely change the demand from one brand to another, another, or from-one dealer's stock to that of another. Any student of ad- ; vertising would admit that.

We refer just to one similarity. It is becoming too much the fashion in ' this country to measure man's success success by a money-standard--to estimate estimate the worth and ability of a man by the amount of money he accumulates. accumulates. Commercialism is the altar at which there is too much ardent worship. Dr. Hadley, of Yale, once declared: "There is no danger that the country will even feel the lack of money-makers. What we do need to fear is the possibility of a lack of public-spirited pien who think - not of themselves first. History, whatever ia studied in school, is intended to broaden broaden the mind and sympathies.. This spirit is growing in this country. We want men who stand for ideals, who make life worth living." We certainly certainly believe this money-loving spirit is growing apace.
