Ernest La- pointe, Minister of Justice. Mr. Lapointe's Bill, 21 pages in an) known as Bill No, 138, suggests many changes in the Criminal Code. Upon # recommendation of the conference Sec- tion 11 of the Bill regarding security frauds 'and matters: of a similar na- ture, was inserted. Paragraph 3 on page 4 of the printed report of the - eonferénce reads: "That in respect of Dominion crim- inal law, as all prosecutions for major ofienses had to be made under the Criminal Code, and as the Deputy Attorney-General attending the con- . ference reported great difficulty in the past in proving bucketing, it was ad- visable to suggest to the Minister of Justice at Ottawa thatanew section be . added to the Criminal Code. Acord- ingly a draft, Section 231A, was pre- pared to cover the offense of a broker reducing the quantity of stock which he should be carrying for his custom- ers by selling for his own account against his customers' buying orders." NEW SECTION greater conformity with the laws of some of the provinces. Complaints have reczived that in certain, cases the existing penalty has been found to be inadequate. Another substantial change is the substitution of the words "under the influence of intoxiccting liquor" for the word "into :ated," in the first line of the sectivn If the proposed amendments are passed motorists shall te liakle, upon indictment, for a first offense to im- prisonment for 'a teem not exceeding three months and not less than thirty days, and for each subsequent offense to any term not exceeding one year and not less than three months. MANSLAUGHTER CASES Another amendment is to elear up doubts which have arisen as to the powers of the jury in case of man- slaughter arising out of the operation of motor vehicles. It reads as follows: "35. Section 951 of the said act is amended by adding thereto the fol- lowing subsection: "3, Upon a charge of 'manslaughter arising out of the operation of a motor vehicle, the jury may find the accused not guilty of manslaughter but guilty of criminal negligence, under Section 284, and such conviction shall be a ban | to further prosecution for any offense arising out of the same facts." Section 36 of the bill also is new. At present when a person imprison- in a reformatory, reformatory school, or industrial school, is feeble- minded or mentally deficient, there is no- provision for the removal of him to a place of safe-keeping. The power to do so is given to the Lievtenant- Governor by this amendment. The power of the Lieutenant-Gover- | ' activities bill have been urged by representatives | of the Humane Society in fvarious: parts of Canada, regarding cruelty to animals.

The buildings are | suitable, and are well constructed. The sanitary arrangements, heat, light and ventilation, are what they should be. The i of these schools meets the needs of the pupils... The play- grounds are adequate, and are attrac tively arranged. The trustees are in- terested in the schools, and keep them in proper condition. They have se- cured teachers who are capable, who love school work, and are interested in children as individuals--not merely as parts of the mass of children who have to go "through" school. Other schools are neglected, dirty, run down, have poor teachers, careless trustees, (lscontented pupils, and grumbling parents, The Inspector is always asking for something to be done to better conditions; but noth ing is done until some fine day he cuts off the Government grant, and then--7? You know where your school be- longs--good, bad, or Indifferent. If you den't know, and the school is not what it should be, you, as parent or ratepayer, are likely to blame partly for poor school conditions. You know best as to that. The Purpose of the School A primarly Public School is an in- stitution in which children are taught to use the tools by which they may secure an education. The chief toels are Reading, Writing and Arithmetic. These are the foundation of all that may he learned from books. It is the business of the school, through its teacher, to teach these subjects thor- oughly and correctly. If this part of what is usually called an education is carelessly "taught or -learned, then what is taught later cannot be well learned. Watch the boy's "scribbler." If It is dirty, and the words are incor- rectly spelled; if additions and sub- tractions are inaccurate, it is a mat- ter rerious enough to require immedi- ate improvement, and no amount of miscellaneous information can take the place of thoroughness in these three subjects. The next purpose of the school is to teach the child to live happily and use- fully with himself and with others. To attuin this end, information must he imparted; discipline must be en- forced; inspiration to learn must be given; and right ideals taught by pre cept and example. Finally, the school should teach Not merely waving the flag, and singing "O Canada," but | learning to be proud of those duties of citizenship, which likely will begin with filling mother's wood box; and may end in representing Canada as its Premier. rhe Government pays large grants | to rural schools (much larger than to urban schools), and has a right to ex- pect that the schools shall produce good citizens, in so far af teaching and surroundings are able to produce such a result.
