We miss that light and always will His vacant place where none can fill. Sadly missed by Wife and Family COMMUNICATION A ORY BOR JUSTICE Deal' Editor; Will you please allow the use of a little space in your valuable paper to Express my humble opinion in re­ gard to some existing conditions? The world has been passing- through a trying and scourging per­ iod. It is gratifying however to see that there are some symptoms of the approach of greater economic jus­ tice. There have been attempts in some instances to lower war prices . and. war salaries. The rarmers pro­ duce has been lowered too much, But there has been a more equitable reduction in other things. The rail­ way men have taken a cut of ten Ter -cent, in* their salaries. The ^Provincial Cabinet also announces a reduction for its members and last •year the County Council of Huron .reduced the salaries of all County Officials and Councilmen five per cent. In practically all our rural and village public schools there has been a reduction of salaries, al­ though in some instances the re­ duction has been unreasonable. If we are to have justice we must have lower prices in all things and lower salaries. Where a teacher receives a lower salary she ought io receive her board and. room for less money than when she received ths old salary, and wherever that is net the case an injustice exists. While some are willing to make things more equitable others are not. Our public school teachers in this country have been willing to lighten the burden of the tax payer hut tho high school teachers, I am Informed, refuse to lift a finger to ■help. Because the federation of High School teachers is a strong or­ ganization we are asked to maintain their salary at the old standard. The Boards seem to have been- power­ less to. reduce their salaries. Men and women -often need, to be or­ ganized to obtain justice but when an -organization uses its power to take an unjust advantage of the hard pressed public it is time that in the name of justice and fair play we protest it, Why should some of im take a reduction in salary and those who, are better paid for their services be exempted?. Does it cost high school teachers moire to ■obtain food and shelter and the1 nec­ essities of life than it does public Achool teachers? Is the present state ■at affairs just? Why should not liigher salaried people help to bear the burden of the country as well as ths lower-salaried? And this ap­ plies to any profession or trade. I have n-o class prejudice, no en- ■Jtolty or animosity against any par­ ticular set of men- ana women who Ate trying to serve theii* fellow mail. J am writing simply to .point out Certain injustices' that should be Corrected/ afld our educated people Should take the lead in setting the example. When we try to practice Justice we have a right to demand ■If. of others, Yours Sincerely H. W» Hagelstein. "There is something about the modern woman, that gets her any- ’thing she* wants,” says a writer. We $Mnk it must be her husband. AND MRS. WIILIDI INFILL.
