The children up to about six years of age are encouraged to express wool is taken through every process and from which materials of a very high quality are produced. The exâ€" periments to provide culture are jast We were granted the privilege of visiting Dartington Hall Estate, where the owners, Mr and Mrs Elmhurst are sponsoring an interesting experiâ€" ment in education. Their aim is to work out a system _ of _ education which will teach the pupils a trade by which they can earn a living, and which will provide them with culture to enrich their lives. To take care of the material side of this education, much of the five thousand acres has beenAevoted to experiments in agriculture. For those not interâ€" ested in that line of work, there are many small industries, such as the textile p‘ant we visited, in which the I do not intend to Aescribe our stay in Devon in detail, but to tell our most interesting trips only. In the evening, we arrived at Torâ€" quay, where we stayed for our reâ€" maining eight days in England. This famous Devon seaside resort is beauâ€" tifully situated on the slopes of hills forming a semiâ€"circle around a bay of the English Channel. It has splenâ€" did bathing facilitiesâ€"the sea with a sandy beach, and a swimming pool; a fine promenade; band _ concerts morning, afternoon and evening; all manner of entertainment from great artists to vaudeville performances and the cinema; shops of every variety; and bus service to all the interesting and picturesque places in that part of the island. measure of security to tfiéâ€"bâ€"a;xâ€"k-st the Dominion Government agreed It was not possible for a Canaâ€" dian institution to borrow so large a sum on advantageous terms.

Furthermore, since all interest and other charâ€" ges have been paid by the Comâ€" pany, the entire transaction has not cost the Dominion Governâ€" ment one cent. ‘The loan oriâ€" ginally carried an interest rate of five per cent., but later this was reduced to four and a half per cent. New loans raised by the Company to pay this off were made at a still lower rate of inâ€" terest. Our trip, the following day, is one of the high lights of the whole sumâ€" mer. For many miles we drove over roacs well sunken between the heigeâ€" rows, and so narrow that there was As one can see,. the training reâ€" ceived at this school is very well balanced between things of practical and of cultural value. The fact that the buildings are of different types of architecture from the Saxon Manor House to the latest modernistic dormitories helps to arouse in the pupils an appreciation of this art. in Sunny Devon In the schools which correspond to our public and high schools, the children spend much of their time at academic work, but have many other activities. A barn had been turned into a theatre where the plays are not only produced by the students but in many cases are written by the strdents, who a.e encouraged to write them in French as well as in English. An old Saxon Manor House on the Estate had been restored by the Elmhursts to its ancient form with the exception of the kitchen which is very modern. Entertainâ€" ments ard banquets are given in its Great Hall. Close by is a tiltâ€"yard, the finest in England, where openâ€" air dancing and theatrical performâ€" ances are produced. The dancing school in connection with the Estate bas a splendi4 reputation not only in Britain, but in Europe. themselves; _ and are taught to live with each other, and to develop habâ€" its conducive to good citizenship. In their school, the work tables, the lunch tables, the chairs, beds, wash basins, and the lavatories are of a size to suit children of this age. An interesting part of the equipment in this department was the screen through which parents and those inâ€" terested can see how the children reâ€" spond to their treatment and envirâ€" onment, without being themselves obâ€" served . The following day, we went to anâ€" other historic seaport,â€" Dartmouth, from where we took a boat trip up the Dart River to Totnes. With Dartmouth are associated many hisâ€" torical incidents: Richard Coeur de Lion _ started on his crusade from here; this town contributed thirtyâ€"one ships and seven hundred and fiftyâ€" seven men for the seige of Calais in the Huncred Years‘ War; Newcomen We continued over the moors to Plymouth, a seaport rich in story . There we saw Plymouth Hoe where Drake bowled while the Armada hove in sight; the bowling green is still there but the ships that ride at anâ€" chor are apt to be modern cruisers. We walked along the waterfront and viewed the masonry which provides splendid bathing facilities but which might provide military _ protection also. Inside the promenade stood the old stone wall which has outlived its usefulness as a means of defence. Following this ancient wall, _ past the fashionable bathing beaches, _ we came to a very old section of the harbour where we saw a memorial marking the site of the departure of the Pilgrim Fathers in the Mayflowâ€" er. The first settlement which we saw was Widdecombeâ€"inâ€"theâ€"Moor, suppos. ed haunt of Pixies. The signpost of the village is graphic, bearing _ a plaque on which are printed the words of the song, "Widdecombe Fair" and surmounted by a picture of Bill Brewer, Jan Stewer, Peter Gurâ€" ney, Peter Davey, Dan‘l Wheddon, Harry Hawk and old Uncle Tom Cobleigh on Tom Pearse‘s grey mare. In the village we visited the sights of interest: the village stocks, Uncle Tom Cobleigh‘s chair and the old church. Dartmoor! Miles of rolling treeless wasteland stretched as far as we could see, with here and there white ribbons of roads winding up the slopes and over the rounded _ hills. The heather was in bloom and with the white and grey stones lent colour to the moors. Only ponies pasture there; but, since the demand for these for use in Welsh mines has deâ€" creased, experiments are being made to find a breed of sheep which can survive on the barren hillsides. The next afternoon, we went to see another village which rivals Clovelly in the eye of the artist and in the interest of the tourist. We entered Cockington Village, which is situated in a shallow valley surrounded by rolling hills, on foot also; for the roads are the usual narrow Devon lanes bordered by hedgerows, and the village is so small that to drive through it, one would miss all its charm. Most of the houses were made of white plaster, while others were made of stone, but all had thatâ€" ched roofs and masses of roses|climbâ€" ing up to the thatching. There is an ancient forge which has been in use since 1170, and which had the disâ€" tinction of being used by Oliver Cromwell for the shoeing of his horsâ€" es . The forge is still in use; it makes souvenir horseshoes for the tourists, one of which we purchased while it was still so hot it scarcely could be handled. There is also a very old parish church, the main part of which was built between 1070â€"1080. Cockington has been held, with the exception of a few brief intervals, by three families for a period of nearly eight hundred years. On our journey back to Torquay, we stopped at a small Devon pottery works where we saw the potter at his wheel, for in these small potterâ€" ies the work is done by hand. â€" f Big bundle of old at Review Office. J it 2200000 2c et Our drive through Dorsetshire was extremely beautiful and from the tops of the rolling hills, _ we could catch glimpses of the sea.

It is not lofty but is beautifully proportioned . Among English Cathedrals, it is unique â€" in having two transeptal towers. In it is much of interest: a beautiful stone screen surmounted by a splendid orâ€" gan which is very old; the Minstrels‘ Gallery on the stone of which â€" are carved figures playing upon mediaeâ€" val instruments; _ graceful arches resting â€"upon exquisitely carved corâ€" bels or supports, covered with gold leaf; and a very old and wonderfully carved wooden pulpit. Among the relics and the manuscripts, we saw a letter of Milton‘s, an ordinance of Stephen Langton, a fifteenth century Euclid, Queen Elizabeth‘s copy _ of Henry VIHI‘s will, and the original ot‘ "Onward Christian Soldiers". We also noticed a tablet erected to the memory of Colonel John Graves Simcoe, and a very famous collection | of old coins dating from 81 A.D. | We stopped at Honiton next â€" to | see the lace for which that town is | so famous. In one of the shops, â€" a | woman showed us how they made the lace on round cushion _ forms, | The work is very fine and the girls are trained from a very earlvy are | ,|â€" Our last Saturday was a free day, ',’ so we decided to go on a hiking exâ€" r.- pedition of our own. When one realâ€" f izes how many points of interest and & Pow much beautiful scenery can be _ _ seen in this way in England, one can S understand why the Englishman is , so fond of walking. A Devonshire . gentleman, â€" who was fond of this * pastime, told us of his favourite walk 8 which sounded so interesting that ° we decided to take it. After proceedâ€" " ing by bus from Torquay â€"through d Newton Abbot and Mortonhampstead A to Easton Cross, we hiked along a . typical Devon lane bordered by hedgeâ€" f rows until we came to the Teign °_ River. Here we left the road to walk t through a farmâ€"yard, with its thatchâ€" ‘|ed house, barn and outbuildings / clustered together, and followed a ‘‘path to the hills which rise high E along the river. On the far side of‘ the river, the slopes were completely / covered with evergreens, but on ourj | side of the river, they were all| _ covered with yellow gorse and purple heather in full bloom. From the deep _ valley we could hear the sound of _ the river, and could catch a glimpse of it occasionally. The scene was colourful ard enchanting. For a disâ€" tance of two or three miles we folâ€" | lowed "The Huntsman‘s Path" along | the brow of the curving hills; _ then l we descended to Fingle Bridge, _ a picturesque little stone bridge across ' the Teign. This walk is sufficiently popular to support a little tea-fiho‘p' at this spot. _ After a snack and aj pot of tea, we returned along the | river path in the shade of the trees | and ferns, which are so dense that | in many places we could not see the hillsides above us. The contrast beâ€" tween the two paths is remarkable . _ _Our last day in England ! Leaving Torquay â€"we drove to Exeter, where [ we visited the police station, _ the | old guildhall, and the Cathedral. The | police station is built over the reâ€" | mains of some Roman pavement | which forms part of the floor. _ Alâ€" :: though this pavement was in a good | state of preservation, near it was a |C restored replica. _ The Guildhall is | one of the most notable municipal : buildings in England. The front door of oak is beautifully carved on both || sides and dates from 1593. The hall ‘ itself is much older, having been ‘‘ built in 1330. _ ‘The present roof | © carved with the Tudor rose was built ° in 1484 and the oak panelling around the hall dates from 1588$%. _ Around * the walls were the coats of arms of : the various guilds. Some other interâ€" esting things are: the Jacobean musâ€" | ‘ icians‘ gallery, a sword and a cap | given to Exeter by Henry VII to b(‘i1 carried before the mayor, and Nelâ€" | son‘s sword. | the inventor of the steamâ€"engine livâ€" ed and worked here. From the river, | the town appears very attractive havâ€" ‘ing been built from the water up the ! sides of a steep hill. Farther up stands the Royal Naval College for cadets. We passed a number of transports preparing for a trip to the East and several large boats laid up due to the shrinkage in British shipâ€" ping. As we proceeded up the river we saw Greenway House where Sir Humphrey Gilbert was born and where Sir Walter _ Raleigh smoked the first tobacco used in England and planted the first potato. Further on is Sandridge where John Davis the celebrated Arctic voyager was born. ‘ Along the river‘s edge the branches of the trees which dip into the stream are cut off in a straight line by the salt water; this is especâ€" ially noticeable at low tide. On both sides of the river the country was quite hilly, in fact most of Devon is like that, which might help to exâ€" plain why so many daring Englishâ€" men have come from this part _ of. the country. | THE DURHAM REVIEW ONTARIO ARCHIVEsS TORONTO kly and it was with Aeep we left our bus and drivâ€" day in Engiand passed o.

But _now | we are sorry to say he does not carâ€" ry the high standing with us he once had. â€" There are more than enough perfectly good and legitimate words in the English language to exâ€" press every shade of feeling without resorting to blasphemy. In fact a man or woman who can control their tongue, has gone a long way in making his or her way in life.

A PLEA FOR RETAINING ' THE ANCIENT LANGUAGE Readers of the "Review" for some years back will recall the silent pleasure it gave them to read the chronicles of the late John A. McDonald of Priceville. However the world was Mr. McDonald‘s parish and how he could tell of the early pioneer times of his countrymen! Gifted with an easy flowing style, he put "Priceville and Glenelg" on the map, _ as no writer has done, past or present. His heart was ever in the Highlands and the Gaelic lanâ€" guage was to him a sacred trust to preserve. ‘There are few, if any left, of his generation in Canada to day and we learn the Gaelic Society Agnes Macphail started something when she listed for publication the ten handsomest men (in her opinion) in the Federal House. It seems she did so in order to injéct some humor into one of the most dull sessions since 1921, when she entered the Commons. The other lady M.P., Mrs Geo. Black of Yukon district, not to be outdone, states there are none of them handsome, but lists her ten most distinguishedâ€"looking members. The outcome has brought forth much merriment and blushing on the part of those selected. Leap year has many privileges for the ladies, and the age is past, where anything of the male persuasion gets away scotâ€" free with his perfections or otherâ€" wise. Ehe RBurkum Arvicw C.
