Where Words End, Music Best ins Words, in them- selves, are but poor interpreters of emo- tion. Where words end, 'Music 'begins. Whel:e words only suggest, music satis- fies; it utters with a cleari-vibrant yoke whatotherwise would remain unuttered. Music will allow you to express your thoughts and ideals. But how, you ask, can you create this music since you are no musician nor the master of any instrument? 111 "The Phonograph with a Soul" has stored up in its magic discs the music of the world's greatest musicians—the soul -children of the music masters. And this music The New Edison will RE-CREATE for you, in your own home, exactly as you would hear it in the grand opera houses and the famous concert halls. Tou should read the beautiful book "Edison and Music"and the booklet"What the Critics Say" containing evidence that proves Edison superiority. ilsk for copies when you tome to hear the New Edison. 248 3.

At a representative meeting of ratepayers from this district which assembled in Zimmer's Hall on Tues- day evening the matter of a consol- idated school for Dashwood was ta- ken up and the meeting decided to ask the department of Education for a survey. Dr. Sinclair and Mr. A. McLaren of Toronto were present and by lantern slides and lecture showed the success that consolidated schools are meeting with. Mr. Mc- Laren spoke of the increased ad- vantages to the pupils and sections. A consolidated school requires five acres of land and different subjects are taken up such as agricultureal training, manual training, domestic work, music etc. Pupils derive a greater advantage because of num- bers and the advanced courses of training meet the needs of many students who would otherwise stop school. The plan is to build a cen- tral school for the community and bring the scholars to school •by mo- tor bus or van. The speaker thought Dashwood was conveniently situated for such a school. With reference to the cost the consolidated school usually costs a little more than the present system, but taking the in- crease in attendance and the added advantages, the cost per pupil is less than at present. The ratepayers were strongly in favor of asking for a survey which will be made by the department. The department will ascertain the number of families in the community, the number of child- ren of school age, the advisable routes, etc, and estimated cost which will be submitted to the rate- payers at a later date.
