HOT LUXCIH IN RURAL SCHOOLS An important Women's Institute aehnoi improvement is the installing of en equipment in th, school where- by a hot lunch may be served to the children at noon hour during the colo: weather. A few of the advan- tages of serving such a lunch are: Dig..4iu i is aided. Pupils are enab- led to. do better work in the after- noon. Pupils are encouraged to tele- - more tithe to eat. The mid- day meal is better balanced. Child- ren are more willing to go to school on cold days. The relationship be- tween home and school is strength- ened. The equipment consists of a two or three burner coal oil stove and a cup -board containing the nee- essf:ry utensils. The department of Education is prepared to give a grant the second year to any school install- ing this equipment and also to the teacher. The Women's Institute branch has mailed a copy of the manual on Household Science pre- pared by the department of educa- tion to all secretaries and presidents of the branch institutes. etel"MOST A WHOLE FAMILY PERISH.

SEND VS THE NEWS The Times would like to be able to publish every item of interest be- tween one Thursday and another, without missing one. And to do this we ask the co-operation of our friends. Bring in, send in, or phone in any item of news to our office. It does not matter whether you are a subscriber or not. We want the news from every quarter of the town and from every corner of the surrounding townships. We do our best to get it but we can't get it all without as- sistance. If your community is not represented in our eolumns and you would like to .act as our correspon- dent write us about it. We have some first class correspondents who send us regular budgets, which we appreciate very much, and some others who send occasional news. We like it all and would urge the oc- casionals to become regulars. But you do not need to become a recog- nized correspondent. If anything of interest happens in your community Iet us know about it. Send news in early—that is a most important mat- ter—and make it explicit, There are thirty tongues and dialects spoken in Montreal.

The clutch of selfishness is strong. Men wish to gaits before they give When we are living at. our best we grant another's right to live. But few of us will bear the blows and face the tempest and the storm And shiver with the winter's cold, to keep a fellow being waren And few of us will step aside to help by deed of kindly speech Another man unto the goal which he is striving hard. to reach. If you can step aside and lose your own bi i f inoruent to succeed Ani tet it's fame and iva ti laity ge to help another man in need— Can see your dreams of glory fade and never stop to count the cost And hold the cause which you have served more pressing than the goal you've lost, You've reached the height of man- hood here and many prayers your life shall bless And you shall stand before your God as one who conquered selfishness Many municipalities are consider- ing the advisibality of establishing consolidated schools: Consolidation would mean the concentration of all the children in the area to be housed in one school with sufficient room to meet the needs. The children would be conveyed to this central point by means of vans of some kind These would be driven by men who are under obligation to the govern- ment to supervise the children from the time they enter the conveyance until they were at school or at home on the return journey. A' farmer carrying an express package from a, mail order house }vas,., asked by a merchant, "Why didn't ycu buy that bill of goods from me. I could have saved you the express, and• besides, you would have been patronizing a home store which helps pays the taxes and builds up this Iocality." The farm- er looked at the merchant a minute and then said. "Why didn't you pat- ronize your home paper and adver- tise? I read it and did not know that you had the stuff I have here." a News Topics of Week FRIDAY Hiram Gabel, aged twenty-eight died at Shakespeare of sleeping sick- ness.

The plan of work for the coming year, was pre- sented by Mrs. Ashcroft, of Wiarton. Every' union was urged to make more use of the Power of Prayer, and to co-operate with the ministers of the various churches to hold a monster watch night service in the interests of the great inter -church forward movement.

U. urge the Provincial Government to make it impossible for boys to frequent places where 2 ee per cent beer',is sold. This ques- tion was discussed at some length and it was finally decided not to pro - nonce on the recommendation, in convention, but refer the matter to the sub -executive, which will look up the present law, and if there is no legislation ,at the present time, which prevents boys from frequent- ing the bars, every effort will be made to have such a law enacted im- mediately.

A law enforce- ment campaign was recommended and the women were urged to keep their eyes and ears open for viola- tion of the law.
