Katy was never a very etrong girl and her work in a laundry taxed her strength severely. In order to save as much as she could to help out at home, she used to walk lons blocks to herâ€" roomingâ€"house, and the change from the steamâ€"laden atmosphere of the laundry to the cold of the outside was also harmâ€" ful. At length she caught a bad coli which she could not shake off, and when the doctor was called he found that she had consumption. She was sent to the Toronto Ho«â€" pital for Consumptives, and alâ€" though very downcast at first, she had not been there long before she decided that she was fortunate inâ€" deed, for within a short time th« wonderful treatment and care which she received began to have their effect.

THE DURHAM REVIEW The many frends of Mrs ‘Munmtl Allan Eden of Vancouver, in South Grey, will regret to learn she is ‘ber-‘ eaved of her husband, Nelson Eden, through death at: Little St John, .n the Peace River District, on March 21. He passed away in Providence Hospital, after a hard struggle for life, with his son Harold and wife near him at the close. The ‘Review‘ has received a letter from Mrs Eden this week, giving the last sad details and as it tells the story better than we can give, we publish same hereâ€" with: Rev. John Little of Rockwood ard {too well known in South Grey for further comment, is still active in | the service of his church. Recently ‘at Lakelet, in North Huron he has been conducting special services and the correspondent of that district to Hanover Post says of him: "He is advanced in years, but that does not ]aflect his preaching, which is alâ€" ways listened to with rapt attention , by the congregation." "Nelson had not been well for a} few Aays, and Harold, my son, : had | taken him to see the doctor, who felt there was no serious cause for aâ€"| larm. But there came a sudden turn | fo rthe worse and on using the Xâ€"; ray found the trouble to be abscess | of the liver and nothing could be done.

But commodity pricâ€" ‘es in the United States have risen at | the certainty of inflation and before | it has got under way,. The big news of the week is Ne United States departure from the gold standard and her plans for conâ€" trolled inflation. Senator Thomas of Oklahoma introduced a bill in the United States Senate which will grant to President Roosevelt all the power to extend currency and creâ€" dit, decrease the gold value of the dollar and accept, if he wishes, silver in payment of war debts. This bill constitutes an amendment to the Farm Relief Act. Who is ready to answer now the} following questions? What is .sound ; money? It would be very interesting | to hear the answer. _ You remember | The deflationists might well ponder ever the words of the Rt Hon. Regâ€" inald McKenna, onetime Chancellor of the British Exchequer, spoken in London, on Jan. 27, 1983: "Controlled inflation, far from being a remedy of fools and knaves, has become widely regarded as the best solution of our troubles since it has become realized that a substantial rise in wholesale prices need haveâ€" no more than a slirht effect upon the cost of living." And again: "We are free to regulate our own price level by increasing or decreasing the quantity of money." By spending three nights in succesâ€" sion on the train between here and Toronto, i managed to keep in toucn with the Commons. The Railway Bill occupied the major portion of the week. â€" It is progressng very slowly . We are too prone to think that eduâ€" cation stops when school days are over, whereas they should be but beâ€" ginning. One can be always learning, | by reading, conversation and diseusâ€"‘ gion, by travel and by thinking. Mr. Stanley Baldwin of Great Britain says that he Aid much better at eduâ€" cating himself than others did at tryâ€" ing to educate him. And we have all / noticed how easy it is to acquire knowledge when we particularly need it. The Hon Charles Dunning was! not in school after he was 11 or 12 years of age, but he is an educated man and could master the details of a Department very rapidly: so rapâ€" idly as to cause general comment in the House. We need learning that we may think straight. Confucius, about 500 years before the birth of Chrst, stated that learning without thought is‘ labour wasted: thought without learning, is perilous, After all}, those who have been stuâ€" dying _ Keynus, Cassel, McKenna, Blackett and Chase, are not the wildâ€" eyed extremists and visionaries that we are painted, but actually are much closer to reality than those who are attempting to solve: 20th century problems with 19th century solutions. It is humiliating to every Can@aâ€" dian, at least every thinking Canaâ€" dian, that Canada must rely on Mr. Roosevelt or Mr MacDonald, or Mr. Somebodyâ€"else for any action that will result in the recovery of purchasing power by the majority of Canadians. Had this gov‘t when frst elected in 1930, gone off the gold standard and inflated our currency, price levels of basic commodities would have been raised, markets in cheapâ€"money. counâ€" tries held and unemployment deâ€" creased, instead all the time has been spent on keeping sacred "contractâ€" The House of Commons had a very brief Easterrecess. Thinking it would be longer, I consented to address the Rural Trustees section of the Ontario Elucational Association in Convocaâ€" tion Hall on April 18th and the Womâ€" en Teachers‘ Federation at their anâ€" nual luncheon on the 19th. I enjoyed bot.1 audiences very much. It is noteâ€" worthy that practically all the speakâ€" ers at the O.E.A. stressed the need of change, both in the economic and educational fields. The fact that the law requires children to attend school until they are 16, changes somewhat the task of the eshool. High Schools will be required more and more to prepare youth for life ratherthan the making of a living. More than anyâ€" thing eise students need to learn to think: it is true they need knowledge but: an amassing of facts in which they have no keen interest themselâ€" ves and which cannot be related to their needs and life is of very little use to them after they leave school.. The life of the school should be closâ€" ely related to the life of the comâ€" munity. . This note was repeatedly sounded at the convention. vai obligations," maintaining © "sound money" and losing markets abroad. | ONTARIO ARCHIVES TORONTO that trustees â€"â€" | Rec« the week is the , one 1 rture from the place, er plans for conâ€" l Bible rator Thomas of;acdol 1 a bill in theied b; ate which will| Sent« Roosevelt all the Reco: rency and cre-“ lar 4 compromises and arrangements | beâ€" tween companies and their creditors by which compromises might be carâ€" ried into effect, under the supervision of the courts., without utterly deâ€" stroying an insolvent company and L Fesouen y S Dt P1 of its assets.
