Is the Hamilton Times correct in saying that the model schools have been abolished, and before the Normal schools are ready ? Our information is that the Models will be continued until the education depnrtment an- nounces that. their work can be ear ried on under mew conditions. To close the Models now, when teachers are so amch in demand, would be to Iring about a crisis in the school life of ithe province, and the education de- partment is not desiring surely to add to its embarassments. The carver of the Normal College, at Hamilton, is closed, however, and per- haps promaturely. The idea primar ily, in making the change, was to bring the School of Pedagogy and {the university into the closest rela- {tionship, and this cannot be accom- 'iplished in Toromto for a couple of | |years. The cost may be more in To- . to, as the Times alleges, as there is to be no stint seomingly in the {expenditure which may be considered y in the int of the sch Our contemporary is clearly mis taken, howover, if it assumes that the government is incurring any special expencliture on account of the School of Pedagogy in Kingston. The gov- ernment has voted $5,000 to the School of Pedagogy which Quoen's College has projected, and for this yoar at least that is the limit. The organisation of the ssllool may, at the. outset, incur Some inconvenience, but Queen's College can be relied up- on to see that there is mot a "de crease of efficiency," and a loss in "the dignity and standing of the pro- fossion."" The university aims at) making the school attractive to all who will attend it; indeed it has am- bitions which, if verified, will make it the teachers' school of Canada. MEASURING THE LORDS, Punch does not lose in vigor be cause of old age. Its cartoons are clever and pointed. The latest phase of the lords' question is very humor ously outlined. Hon. Campbell-Ban- nerman is shown as a visitor to the home of a peer, aged, infirm and crip- pled. The case is suggestive of heroic treatment, and in the contemplation of it the premier remarks: "I see nothing for it but an operation." His lordship appreciates the offer of as ; (sistance, but replies : "I thought of taking a little prescription of my own." The pith of the illustration is made lapparent when it is recalled that a | committee of the lords has been ap- | pointed to consider "the best means of 'reforming their own house." The reading of the commission is remarkable. It is 'an admission in it- self that some change is necessary in order 10 make the membership and work of the upper house acceptable. The lords are not all incapables. In the venerable chamber there are some of the brightest and ablest statesmen in England. Granted that some of them are hereditary peers--they are not oll out of touch with public events since by predisposition some of them have studied political economy and oe F 4 dom of following a similar course. and continuously, the government will pay a large percentage of the teach- er's salary. The object is to encour- age boards--of education to embark in this work, gnd to pursue it with efici- ency. This would not be the case were there any doubt about. its util ity. Then a critic does not sce why do- mestic science should be considered in lconnection with the high échool. He does not realize, apparently, that the department was to be established in the high school and become a part of ite attractions. He does not know that a couple of hundred or more of the girls who attend the high school would take the domestic science classes, and that they, of all the students, will profit most by them. The cost of the department was not added to the high school budget be- cause that would have unduely in- creased it. There was an increase al- ready, and it was all, the trustees felt, that could be for the time being justified. Had. the 8300 which it is proposed to raise in fees and the $000 for domestic science been included | in the demands of the year for high| school purposes the aldermen would | have raved and stormed, and had there been an increase in the tax rate the ery would have gone forth that it was owing to the extravaganee of the school administrators. The only alderman who essayed to! deal with the school budget at the) council meeting was Mr. Nickle. He had secured the figures in advance and duly considered them, and in his place he had asserted that he did not see that the council was in a position to cripple the school trustees. The two or three others who are talking now, and giving their opinion as to what the school board should do, had nothing to say when intelligent dis- cussion was in order and when it would have had some effect. ---------- EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Cres- cent, of Watertown, had a decided ad- vantage in being well tried before the contests began. What the Kathleen can do is not yet known. From her performance of Saturday, she looks to be a faster boat than the Crescent, which defeated her by only a small margin, when it is taken into consid- eration that on the last half-mile the Kathleen's balloon jib dragged in the water. The Crescent's sails worked easier on account of their having had time to get well settled, While the skippers of both boats did equally good work, it must be admitted that the Crescent's crew was the more ex- perienced, consisting as it did of three skilled ygchtsmen. Commodore Reeves' assistants were in the nature of old tars, and handled the sails to perfec- tion. In the meantime, the Kathleen will have some workouts in the weekly club races, and, by labor day should be in first-class trim, and much more capable of showing her heels to the Watertown champion.
