As His Worship has stated. h.s'proposal is in nowise a reflection upon the work of the present municipal asses - sur. It is admittedly difficult for an as- sesax to make radical changes from yeal to year in the ordinary assesement; but with the support of the council an inde- pendent valuation might be secured which would form the basis for future years of the work of the regular assessor. - As is the case m most municiealities, the taxable properties in Goderich are not assessed at their full value. and the tendency is to assess the less valuable properties at a higher prop.ertion of their real value than the more valuable ()nes. It every property were placed un the as- arament roll at its full value there could he no complaint that one man was get - t ng off with e smaller proportionate as- sessment than another. The result would be of course, a considerable addition to the aggregate assessment of the town, and there would be a danger that the council, with a larger valuation to levy upon. would he tempted to spend more money. Unless the council is determined to keep down the expenditures, and levy a small- er rate on the dollar in proportion to the increase in the assessment. it might he just as well to leave the asstesrnent as it is. Mayor Wigle ne doubt appreciates this danger and is prepared with the as- si, tance of the council to hold a stiff hand on expenditures, so that a low rate may be levied on the new assessment. If this is assured, His Worship's proposal. we believe. should meet with general ap- proval. - - - EDITORIAL NOTES. • Have you got your seed catalogue yet?

A Minister of Agricul ture should be appointed who could giv his whole attention to the duties of th liepartment, in view of the need for pro- duction and the shortage of farm help. Mr. McDonald (North Bruce) con sidered money could be saved by reduc ing the personnel of the Ontario license board. Four men wore paid salaries ag gregating $20.500. Since prohibition came into force a board of two member would be adequate. Ile opposed any ex tra expenditure for school textbooks this year, and suggested that examinations might be held earlier to permit the older students to go on the farms. Mr. Mageau (Sturgeon Fal(s) discussed Northern Ontario affairs and Gavern- ment House expendgure. Seven thous- and dollars had beat expended for water, fuel and light at Government /louse last year. Ile estimated that the upkeep of the "Castle" last year, plus six per cent. on the cost of building. would amount to fl18.000. A feature of the debate was the speech of Mr. Thomas hlarshall. Liberal mem- ber for Lincoln, in which he declared that the whole system of educaticain the Prov- ince was too much centralized and should he changed. It was too narrow and autocratic and a committee of ex- perts should be appointed to consider the whole question. In the last ten years there been a great increase 111 the expenditure of this Department, with no increase in efficiency. Mr. Marshall re - (erred to the extra expenses incurred by the juggling with textbooks. and did not believe the results warranted the many changes. In 1916. $22,000 had been paid to the textbook committee, and 814,000 in 1917. He illustrated the unwarranted expense which the peblic e as being put to through the juggling in textbooks. by pointing out that five different Latin - primers had been used in the last twenty years the present one being 'very little different from the original. Mr. Ducharme (North Essex) discussed the agricultural question and endorsed the usefulness of tractors on the farms of the Province. He urged the Govern- ment to ()Nerve a real politit1I truce by heeding Me suggestions of the Opposi- tion. Mr. Mete (South Essex) suggested to the Government that experienced farmers now working in towns and cities should be sent back to the farms, and hinted at compulsion. ker. Dewart t Seuth-West Toronto) said that had it not been for the nickel taxation. which was largely due to Op position criticism. the Government would have been able to show a surplus of only Sitil,(X10 instead of the million and three - q uarters which they now claimed. Ile expressed the hope that the Government would collect the arrears of taxation on nickel. Mr. laeuart considered the ex- penses of administering the Workmen's Compensation Board and the Ontario License Board might be reduced. and sug- ested the appointment of a 'cost-of-liv- ng commissioner who could investigate war profits and arrange that they be axed. he s re A GISRMAN-AhlERICAN VIEW. a1 he b From an address before the llarris- national interest, or.ven national honor, as urg, Pa..

It was a liberal education for a boy to watch him going borne daily laden with papers, books and letters. his happy smile indicating that he had found some treasure, or his abstracted air showing that he was deeply concerned over some world problem, or it may be the fate or fortunes of one of his boys. He opened up for us a new idea of his- tory, which up to that time had been taught everywhere in a lifeless mechanical way. Just then Mr. John Richard Green completed his classical History of the English People. and Dr. Strang at once introduced us to that fascinating work. In fact, he was always introducing us to the best books, which he freely loaned out of his own libery. Of these "Tom Brown's School Days,""ToenlBrown at Oxford," and Trevelyan's "Life of Macaulay" stand out in memory as beneficent forces. the results of which tate to this day. While on the lookout for the "Lads of Pauts." he (*voted equal pains to the dullards amongst us, but if we showed Agin of wanting it he would gladly take additional classes out of hours. Disci- plinebever seemed difficult. Unlike the School of Orbilius, perfect ewe cast out fear. Meanness withered in his preeence, and boys who did not work soon found it convenient to go elsewhere. The tone of the school was largely treated and domin- ated by his personality, and the gratitude of his pupils again and again gathered them from different parts of the country to do honor to thele ofd master. Dr. Strang found time t- write text- books in English which have been widely used. His work was recognized by the Government, by the University of Tor- oato, by the Educational Association of Ontario which elected him president. In his caNcity• err keeping young. he re- minded one strongly of Oliver Wendell Hollnes. The road long travelled is apt to develop ruts, but he carefully avoided them, and to the last of his teaching days was open to new ideas. He certainly has mastered the art of growing old grace- fully and wisely. Whether in the ardor o( his youth, the staidness.' of his"middle age - or the mellow ripeness of his later years, we always think of him as the Christian gentleman. the ideal teacher. the true friend.. If only we could visualize all that his fife has meant to these fifty-three classes of boys and kilts who have lived in and breathed his atmosphere. we could perceive the marc than hundredfold re- ward in the fruitfulness of one such life as our beloved master's. Eternity alone will reveal the decisive conversations, wise words, and earrst prayers for the success of his pupils.
