If | the teacher is the one to have this | "vision" he should not attempt its ful: filment alone, but should rather create a feeling along this line among his trustees and ratepayers. ~The best way to create such a feel- ing is by having the people see grounds that have been made beauti- ful, but as this is not always easy to accomplish the next best way is to have * pictures and lantern slides, '| colored if possible, for the people to to look at. Nothing. makes people feel like growing flowers. so 'much as seeing them grow, and the next great- est incentive is the colored pictures of flowers. aint The grounds should be graded.

Early in the evening he went across the ice to the store at Caesarea to buy some tobacco. He did not stay in the village more than fifteen minutes and then struckout on to. the lake for home. In some way he took a wrong turn and headed for Scugog instead of Wasburn's Island. When near the shore he started to shout and roused the farmers who went down to the lake with lanterns but somehow failsd to locate the man. They went back home and telephoned to Caesarea to find out if they knew anything there atout a man on the jce. Mr. Fred Harran told them what was known; but it was so dark and the lake was so unsafe that they could do nothing until daylight. In the morning another party went out and managed to find his tracks which were headed for Scugog, but he had evidently been turned about upon coming to a wide crack in the ice. This crack he had tollowed and it took him safely home. Contributions to the Muskoka Free Hos- pital for Consumptives will be efully acknc AR » 347 George Hopkins, one of the most].
