Su'CCESSFUL sXUDENTs.—Arnong the successful students of Toronto University, we notice the names of several Huron boysin connection with the recent examinations. W. M. Mar- tin receives his degree B.

Goor Anvioe.—Peter Cooper, of New York, was in his life -time a man of excellent sense and long business experience. He said, with respect to newspapers; "Inall the towns where a newspaper is published every man should advertise in one, if nothing more than a card stating the name and the business be is in.. It does not only pay the advertiser, but it lets people at a distance know the town in which you reside is a prosperous community of business men. The most costly circular a business man sends out dies in less than a day; but the enterprising newspaper, containing the news as well as the business announcements of manufacturer and merchant, is a daily or weekly reminder that ought not to be neglected." And, Peter Cooper never put more truth in small- er maller space. A MUNICIPAL SuIT.—Robert Walk- er, of Kincardine, has entered suit against the e maY or and seven council- lors, to recover the sum of $60, alleged to have been illegally voted and paid by the council. The plaintiffs want to make the defendants pay the money with costs, out of their own pockets. A case of this kind occasionally enter- ed in our courts has a good effect. Nearly all municipal councils make illegal grants occasionally ; but as the object is generallyin the public inter- est, though not sanctioned by statute, it is seldom that any ratepayers go to the trouble of compelling the members voting for such grants to make good the money out of their own pockets. But it is well to know that such a remedy exists, and that money voted illegally by municipal bodies can be recovered from the individual mem- bers. BUT AT Ho.—The Lindsay Posh says :— "An experience in going to Toronto for bargains will likely give a Lindsay lawyer ajobpretty soon. Two weeks ago a north ward woman saw an advertisement in one of the big Toronto papers quoting prices which a big firm there was going to sell at the Friday following. She sent ;the order and the cash. Among other things she ordered two pairs of towels and 25 yards of five -inch lace. When the stuff arrived she found but one pair of towels and a quantity of one inch lace. She sent the whole thing back without opening the lace to see how much there was of it, and de- manded the return of her money. Some days later she received a note which clearly insinuated that before returning the lace she had cut off 10 yards and had returned only 15 yards. This insinuation of stealing she did not like and has demanded d an:a oto' P gY• The only excuse the firm offers for not filling the order as sent was that the purchaser did not specify that she was ordering advertised bargains. THE Parris tx ABOLISHED.— A cir- cular'to inspectors and High School principals has just been issued by the Minister of Education. The most im- portant announcement nt i s that the abolition of the primary examination. No change will be made in the work required, but primary certificates will not be issued. The change was not unexpected, as there has been a strong movement in favor of raising the stan- dard required of teachers. The aboli- tion of the primary examination will not affect the rights of holders of primary standing obtained in 1898, or in a previous year, to attend county Model schools. If a scarcity of teach- ers should arise in any county after next year, in consequence of the higher requirements, provisions will be made to meet the special conditions of the locality. It should be understoodthat County Boards of Examiners are not allowed to award third-class certifi- cates to candidates who do not make the higher percentage required by re- gulation 63. A district certificate shall not be granted under this section of the regulations, atron s unless there is a scarcity of teachers, and until the con- sent of the department has been first obtained. Renewals, granted under regulation 87, aro valid only in the county where issued. The regulations governing the Public school leaving, first form, and junior and senior leaving examinations remain practic- ally the same as in 1898.
