.3iteading, Fiction.
At the Perth Teachers' association
Rev. Y. Wright: B. D , gave an
address on modern light literature in
which helm/mad the reading of light
literature. There was no doubt In his
mind that fiction stowed up human
folly and made deep impressions on
morality. Society was to a very
great extent educated and moulded by
works or fiction. I Man's very nature
was tiled with a love for fiction, and
no peejudice in laver of dullness
could root it outa Light literature
was as essential to the mind as an
afternoon nap in an easy chair. The
physical man wanted rest and so did
the intellectual man. It should, how-
ever, be restrained within due bounds.
People should exercise discretion in
literature as well . as in everything
else, A. stern mbrality demanded
that a writer of fiction should be as
conscientious as a judge upon the
bench. Some works of fiction were
like flowers without order ; Ianguage
without meaning. Men of lively
imaginations mayplease the multitude
but only those writers who were ,true
to nature 'would find an echo in man -
k nd, and thus it was that a fellow
reeling makes all the world akin. Of
course he was aware that there were
depraved taste, which were fed by
vicious literature. UIost of the social
corruption of the day may be attrie
buted:to the prurient literature that
was not allowed, he now was proud to
say. free access into the country,
.impure literature must be put under
the ban, but there was no harm in
reading light literature, providing it
was confined within bounds. Fignw
atively speaking, he concluded by
warning them not to seek in the
swamp for light literature, " as they
would undoubtdly get the miasma,
chills and many other horrible things

Wants And Woes Teacherst.
At the recent Convention of the
South Perth Teachers' A.ssociation,
held at Stratfdrd. Mr. Charles Clark-
son, Principal of the, Seaford: Colle-
giate Institute :gave an interesting
address ou " ThelaVants and Woes of
Teachers." = He 1. said. there was no
particular'virtuen neglecting to look
at their woes. Isolation was one of
the worst evils the county teachers had
to contend agAinst True, some of
them had plenty of company but very
little society. The appropriate checks
for this mental solitude were monfahly
tneetings of teachers, educational
journals, experiments in new methods
of teaching and careful study of
development. The second woe he
attributed poverty and bad pay.
The remedies might be obtained for
these if teachers would draw closer
together. These were some of the
things obtainable : The abolition of
permits, the extension of third class
certificates to five years, extension•of
Model school session to a full year,
formation of teachers' leagues, elec-
tion of teachers to townsnip and
city councils and tat, Parliament. He
concluded with the saying that there
is a good time coming when there
will be a hnuse attached to every
school, and the married teachers will
take their places there.

'The mileage of the Grand Trunk

The mileage of the lines leased, owned
or controlled in the interebts of the
Grand Trunk in the United. States is.
about 985. The total capital of these

cluding all the umnieipal and other

The receipts of the lines of the Grand
Trunk system in Canada amount to
about S17,000,000 per annum, and of
those in the United States to about
$5,500,000. The proprietors of the
Grand Trunk hold htrge investments
