Boys and girls of day have many advantages which t ,.e of the not- far-distant ubfar-distant past lack This is par- ticularly true in the m ter of real ing. There was a time ten almost the only books to which a hild had access were the Bible, Pilgri 's Prog- ress and Shakespeare, and. pethaps, an almanac. Someone probably treys, "The child who read and reread the Bible, who stored his mind with t imagery of Bunyan and the gems o Shakespeare's works would he in- finitely better ofd than the vast ma- jority of children today," True ; but the trouble was that only an ezcep tional child in either the paat or the present would read such hooks, and with most it was the almanac or nothing. Nowadays book, for chil- dren are so many and so inviting .that it must surely be an exceptional ach..ule. might 5 we.w a prospect of betterment as a re- sult of the hew poii.•j• : but the pros- pect_ is vague-. _ Many of the lor.t teachers we now have could not have secured certificates Molt* the present system, involving te longer and more expensive course of training, and in the future we shall be deprived of the eervices of many young hien 'and women, capable of doing good work as teachere, who will be unable to take the course now prescribed. Exper- ienced etlurationiste state that the modelro:hool training was a most val- uable one. ,and there is reason to doubt that the teachers turned out from the norinal eehum.ls wilt give any better service than the teachers who graduated from the old model schools. The committee of the Ontario Legis- lature appointed to deal with the ques- tion of municipal taxation sat last week at Toronto and heard many re- quests for changes in the law. The committee will not recommend any Ptulical alteration of the present law ; bat one important and commendable decision is to recommend the repeal of the LIauee under which vacant lands in cities are assessed as farm lands. This louse gives the land speculator • great opportunity: when it is re- pealed he will be under pressure to sell the land or to nse it for Molding purposes, Another change to be tete fact that Dr. Resume has no business meddling with Dominion politics, ex- rept is an ordinary voter.
