Some of the details of this manner of catering to motor tourists make interesting reading. On the road to Colorado, accord- ing to those who have been there this summer, there is hardly a town which does not have its markers dir- ecting motorists to the free camping grounds, which are fitted up with modern conveniences, Wamego, for | instance, advertises its park, with bathing pools, rest room, smoking room, shower baths, and cooking range, al] available for tourists. Solo- mon proclaims that it has "one of the most beautiful camp grounds al- ong the line." Denver fs now known { to practically all automobile tourists by its elaborate provision for their comfort in {ts automboile camp grounds, which have become almost a miniature city, These are but a few cases of what | cities where they have been established. The automobile tourist, as a rule, soon lets his fellow know where such accommodation is to be had, for in these days of high hotel rates, a free camping ground is not a thing to be despised. The travellers remain there overnight, and, naturally, they re- plenish their supplies at such stop- ping places. The result is that the merchants in many lines of business derive much trade and prosperity as & result of the free camping grounds provided by the municipality. There is in this an idea. which might well be adapted to the needs of Kingston, for, with the extension of the provincial highway system un- til it forms one great tourist highway from Windsor to Montreal, there will be a regular stream of summer tour- ists through Kingston every year, Of course, it would not be necessary to 20 into the matter on so large a scale as some of the United States cities have done, not for a time at least. But from a small beginning great 'hings might beaccomplished. Allthat would be necessary to start would be the setting aside of a piece of ground which could be utilized as a camping ground for automobile tourists, and to arrange at least for a water sup- ply on the spot, That would be an excellent start. Signs placed in prom- inent places would lead motorists to this ground, and they could spend the night there in comfort, and with- out having to pass on without stop- ping in our eity, Then, as the idea gained in popularity, the scheme could be enlarged to include other conveniences, until Kingston would have a high reputation in the matter of catering to tourist trade. It would be a good investment, for it would bring returns in the way of increased business for our merchants. It would also spread the fame of. our city all over the continent, for it is an almost inborn trait in motorists that they remember longest the places where they have been wel] treated, and pass along the information to their friends, CHRISTIAN EDUCATION. Much is being said and much writ- ten these days concerning necessary changes in the educational systems of the world. This is due partly to the revelation to the gaze of an astounded world of the spectacle of Germany running amuck largely through her/ delibérate programme of educatign during the last two gen- erations. It is now being felt more keenly than ever before that an edu- cated rascal is just so much more dangerous than an ignorant rascal and indeed, that unless you have done something more for a boy than crowd his mind with facts more or less dangerous in his handling of them, you have no guarantee that your citizenship will be improved by his education, As Captain Nicholson pointed out in an admirable address a few days ago, the moral and religious quality of education must be insisted on. But there is another reason why the problem is a pressing one, and it is touched on by Mr. Horace Wal- pole In an article in the Review of that we have come into an age when only the young count, and it is fool- [ish to take the view of the future from the middle aged and old. They have made a sorry mess of their own generation--the young that are coming are going to have a wonder- ful tie. No one, he says, has the right to pretend to very much wis- dom, a little universal humility is what is badly needed. It is just this fact--that the young people of this generation and the succeeding one have to create a new world, that takes educators anxious concerning their preparaton to face their task, What equipment shail we give them? It 1s interesting to observe that with almost unanimous voice educators be- eve that in future education should be distinctly Christian, Business men are of the same opinion, For some years in Canada there has been & ment--ol motorists-who are-passing™ | is now becoming the regular thing in | i across the border, and they are | proving advantageous to the places | Reviews a few months ago.
