DEI 11 13 The task of having a medical In- . spectioe ,or all schools looks tike a big onc for a government to under-, take The number of rural' schools in Ontario rues up into the thousands and to have each school inspected ev- en twice a year would be no light task.. At the same time it is pos sible to accomplish it by a compare- tivele easy plan. A doctor in each township could look after the schools -us the municipality, and by thus diet- iding up the work it would not be a very difficult problem to handle, As to the acIvisa'bility of doing so ' there can be little room for a eliffir- • 'ence of opinion. If medical inspec- tion is a good thing for the schools . in the city, then the schools in the smaller places and rural sections ought to have it too, In, fact there is more need for ift in some rural schools ethan in city schools. True, ehild- Ten in the country living in the gresh air average higher in general health .than in the city. But it is not the general health of the pupil that- ,is so 'important and which calls for 'medical "inspection, but physical defects such as weak eyesight, etc., which •call for -attention A. pupil defective, for -example, in eyesight is handicapped and the handicap is all the greater because neither the teacher nor the oarents of the pupil are aware of it Ther there is the •case of infectious diseases. These may be prevalent in schools, and no one the wiser until za regular epidemic breaks out. Sir Wiltrid's latest election tariff 'etas been given to the public. No more .does he sob over the poor farmer or offer as a panacea for his wrongs the famous. "adjunct" reciprocity, The farmer is forgotten by his very. re- cent "friend" and his voice throbs with sorrow for the consumer.. Free :Food is to be the Liberal slogan un- til a more, attractive election bait is discovered. His recently concocted infallable remedy for the "high -cost - of -living" is tariff reduction on food stuffs. Under the Democratic gov- ernment in -United States they have been trying it, and the New YorkPost the most authorative and reliable pa- . oei in that country, has this tosay,-4 'The absolute failure of the abolition of the duties on food stuffs under the v tariff to reduce the cost of liv- ing is sufficient to shon that the.tar- •le, as a factor M the situation is al so slight importance as to be entire- ly negligible." The real problem to be met and solved is the problem,of distributer= food supplies to thePecr- eple-in otlier words cheaper methods of transportation. The cost of s liv- ing has steadily increased under the _Democratic government, and this is the only concrete example we have had of "free food" being tried -as a means to reduce the cost of living. • Hon Mr. Fielding is returning to -Ca- - nada to become editor of the Montreal •: Liberal organ. Mr. Fielding's special- „ty is wrecks . When in Nova Scotia politics he spent years trying to wreck Confed- .eration. In 1911 he attempted to wreck the Imperial Union by making Canada an •a.djuect o: the United States. He did not succeed in wrecking Canada or the Empire, but he did - wreck the Liberal party. During, the past year he has been in England attempting to Ivreek the scheme or Imperial Naval Defence. His party is now giving hini.a taste of his own mediclne, and is placing lite in charge ot the wreck of the party in 1\We:real. The ma,n who has been a wrecker must now attempt to rehabilitate one o: thc party's wrecks. It is understood that Hos, L. P. Pelletiet has issued an order prohib- iting the carriage of liquor by par- cel post. Parcel post will be in op- eration early in the New Year, and much interest has been shown as to what attitude the postmaster -general evoulcl assume in this regard. The Opposition at Ottawa are- now •talkeig about the high cost of Thee want somebody else to rernetly a conditioa which they created by 15• years of persistent neglect of Can- a.diat; agriculture. Much of the money which the gov- ernment has raised in London has beer used to retire old Liberal loans and to Luy Grand Trunk Patific to overcame the "implementing” jo- ker in the Laurier contract.
