It is mnst remarkable that Hon. .\lr. liig's should take such a great interest in Dr. Wright. and his Com- pany. l'suully speaking. one cannot receiw the Letters Patent of a Com- painy within two weeks of the ap- plication. but the date. of issue can be given in advance. In this case, the Minister‘s friends got their charâ€" ter delivered by the Minister within 2': hours. Most [lt‘OptC will .vemler why the Hon.

The funds are ex- hausted and the boy or girl or ability ; has to quit because his parents are not able to assist him further. The children of rich parents are not al- ways the brightest; in many cases, if not in most cases, they may be amongst the dullest, and these are the ones the Hon. Peter would have attend the Universities and higher educational institutions. It is not necessary that the children of rich parents should be duller than the children of their less-favored neigh- bors. The environments of youth are to blame: they get things too easâ€" ily; they don't have. to struggle and plmt for what they get the same as their poorer neighbors. and too often they have little. or no appreciation of the comforts they enjoy. If they had only been fortunate enough to ’he born of poor parents or treated ’ns the children of poor parents, in nine rusws out of ten they would turn out better than they do.
