Beyond their scholarly attainments, £28 apart from their qualifications for teaching, the personal influence of school teachers on the minds and natures of their pupils is incalculable. On them rests to a great degree the responsibility of implanting true con- ceptions of character and conduct in the impressionable minds of those whom the quickly passing years will soon invest with the dignity of full citizenship. ell it is for us, and well for Can- da, that the standard of training and ee be held high, and that our teachers as a class are worthy of our highest respect. In no other pursuit expectation of high purpose in none is it more nobly responded to. To the various teachers in whose the welfare of the Hospital now Open The keynote of Red Cross peace time activity was struck most forcibly in one of the short speeches given at the dedication service of the Dryden 'Red Cross Memorial Hospital held Weds nesday evening. The work of the Red Cross through- out the world during the great war needs no publicity, and Canada stood well to the fore with generous dona- tions and her army of volunteer work- ers. At the cessation of hostilities however, the question was how. to divert that great tide of human energy and personal interest to best serve the world once more at peace. At the Hague conference a League of Red Cross Sccieties was founded, with an international programme for the promotion of public health and better citizenship,-- each country to work out the plan most suited to its policy to be kept in mind, viz. the im- provement of health the prevention of disease and the mitigation of suffering, Ontario's call for hospitals and for the friendliest hopes of all good parents are foday directed.

THE PLEASANT HOUR With the coming of Séptember the vacation season of 1923 passes into a merhory, and our thoughts turn to the work of the Class for the autumn and winter. All out going officers and committees should be prepared to ad- vise and encourage their successors. They know both the joys of suecess and that "gone" feeling when the best , {infentioned plans go all astray. unday morning the subject to be d in the Adult Class of Union h is "John Mark." Read about him in portions of Acts xii., xiii. and xv.; and in 2 Timothy iv. 11. He wrote 'the Life of Christ known as the Gospel according to St. Mark. Mark's Gospel is the earliest of all.

This week he will be back at his post. He feels greatly encouraged and gratified over the programme carried out by the Class during his absence. The new executive should meet as soon as possible and lay out the work for the new year. They should con- sider the coming season in the light of the past, and with a right start this September there is no reason why the class should .not be stepping into the best yer yet: A WABIGOON, Ont.--A dance will be held by the U.F.W.0. in the Imperial Hotel, Scptember 20th.

To assist communities who to undertake the whole proceeding at once--by equip- palities can see their way clear to take on the entire responsibility. The prospect in Dryden is good. an institution, the rapid growth of population, and the unanimous wish of the eitizens fo sustain the effort, point to an early date when Dryden and the surrounding area will entirely maintain their hos- pital. The united efforts of those at head- quarters in Toronto and those in charge here will be spent in an en- deavour to bring the institution to a paying basis.
