'The need of reform in our educa- (tional system must be apparent to any. who give the matter a thought. The public school has been looked up- on as a mere training school for the high school and the high school for the university. The tendency has been to unbalance the svstem and drive pupils to follow pursuits, usnatural to their adaptabilit~ and opportun- ity, The Farmer's Advocate summed the matter up well recently, It said: "Thinking Canadians are at least awakening to the fact that our much lauded public school systems possess a lamentable defect in that they have | tended strongly to wean our youn and people from the land, to fill American towns. and cities at the expense of the rural districts, and especially to over- crowd ional and clerical em- plovmeats. dn short, they have not fices in the gift of the provinuial gov- became vacant in Waterloo county clerk and surrogate court clerk.

The aim is not to make farmers of everybody, but to do all we reasonably can to cultivate a taste for, an interest in, and a re- spect for agriculture and all other useful arts.
