"A stitch in time saves nine." "Honesty is the best policy." "A penny saved is a penny gained." "The laborer is worthy of his hire." "Plough deep, while sluggards sleep. » . "Early to bed and carly to rise, makes a man : healthy. wealthy, and wise." These maxims point the way to happiness' and prosperity. The sudden road to wealth has heen blocked by the «deluge of watered stock that has lost its ficticious value. The fact is that we as a people-have to get back to work as the basis of wealth. We can no longer hope to load ouw highly priced buyings upon some poor victim at an advanced and false value. The surest way to prosperity, and the way which has no re- grets, is to give good value for the money we receive, either in i service or in goods. Every working hour of every day should be used to improve our condition. There should be no idle time. There is always room to clear up the untidiness about us, or to improve our property in some way. Each of us should have a long . program of improvement laid out for ourselves. The difference | between success and failure frequently lies in the use or neglect of time and opportunity. If every Canadian would adopt this program instead of look- ing about for some way to make "easy money" there would be a , wave of real prosperity come to us that would surprise all our people. It is not hard times for many of us, that is the trouble, but lack of industry and courage. We allow ourselves to be bullied {into buying what we cannot afford. Every minute of the day rroves that we are not poor. No highway but can see thousands of dollars worth of automobiles passing any minute; and what we see here may be seen in any populated part of Canada. It is fine to "keep up with the Joneses" and if that is our ideal, it is no- body's business but our own: but we ought not to talk of being poor when we buy everything to which we take a fancy. : Get out the old copy book, and con its maxims. They stili hold good. Follow them, and barringeaccidents, the results will nearly always bring nrosperity. The cure for hard times with most of us will be intelligent industry. There arc exceptions to this rule; and the modern product of the machine age --the un- employed--has a big problem to face; but it can he faced often by the man who in his spare time fits himself to fill the positions that are open when other positions close. 000 STILL AFTER CHICKENS "Peel Bros.

Greenbank Beware of the fog! .What might have been a serious accident occurred one night last week when one of our farmers was hunting his cows in the fog on his own farm, a neighbouring farmer became very much alarmed at seeing the light, believing it to be some of the chicken thieves, got his son and a gun each, went to capture them, when near enough shot at the man, who put out the light and made for home as fast as he could.

M. Morris, Secretary, Ontario Trustees' and Ratepayers' Association. Considering from every angle the training of the youth is the greatest enterprise of any nation, - The school is the most potent factor the state has under its control for the transmission of national ideals to future generations. It is the greatest wealth producing agency in the world, because it discovers, trains and develops the latent talents and abilities of the youth. Govern- ments and national organizations have been greatly interested in the conservation of material natural resources for many years, but there is no natural resowyces that has been so much exploited and wasted as the youth. The wealth of the world, both material and spiritual will eventually he in possession of those nations that provide the most eflicient systems of education. It is the human factor that ultimately determines the destiny of the nation. The church, the Press and other social agencies interested In national welfare-would be well advised to observe Education Week. We cannot overstress the value and function of the school. There is imperative need for the development of a more intelligent edu- cational consciousness, Progressive educational legislation must follow not precede public sentiment. Here is an opportunity for the clergymen to portance of training the youth. Editors of our Daily and Weekly newspapers will enjoy great satisfaction in their efforts to direct public opinion to 'the importance of the training of the youth to fill their places in the life of the nation, and to enjoy the greatest prosperity and happiness in their individual lives. stress the im- by J. H. Hardy, President, Ontario Secondary Federation. School Teachers' Plato, the great Greek philosopher of over 2000 years ago, defined the purpose of Education as being: "To give to the body and soul all the beauty and perfection of which they are capable." Up to the time of Gladstone, British education for the privileged classes largely followed that worthy ideal. Jut, the widening of educational opportunity has caused the points of emphasis to be changed. This has been especially true during the past quarter of a century. Modern industrial and economic competition, our increasingly complex civilization, the machiné age, and the resultant additional leisure time for the masses of people, have largely transformed Ontario's Secondary Education. We are still training students to appreciate the beau- ty and perfection of the Classics; we are still preparing those who desire it for the learned professions. But, our Education today is doing vastly more than that. We are training for specific vocations and at the same time we aim to prepare these students for a full life as useful citizens. Education now is a life-long pro- cess; it should not, and it must not cease when one leaves the portals of the Day School. To meet this need, Ontario is fostering Vocational Evening Classes, University Extension Courses, Work- ers' Educational Associations and other organized Educational efforts for older adolescents and adults. The citizens of the Pro- vince are appreciating the opportunity provided for them, Fully one-quarter of the entire population are at school ih Day or Even- ing courses. It is the purpose of Education Week to bring to the attention ' of Ontario's citizens the many vital changes in Educational aims, content and vision, during recent years. Further it is hoped that public attention may be focussed | op Education, its present value and the possibilities of future dévelopment. If in even a small degree, Education Week assists in keeping Ontario's Educational thought abreast of the times, it will have achieved its purpose. i! 1 : AAR FR EE :
