The jurisdiction of Division Courts is increased one hundred per cent. An interesting discussion took place upon this subject and in the result is seemed to the Legislature that there was no reason why the simple and expeditious procedure of the Division Court should not be made available to a much greater extent than heretofore, especially as ample provision is made for appeals where consider- able amounts are involved. The jurisdiction in personal accounts is increased from $60 to $420, in an action for the recovery of a debt or money demand from $200 to $400, and in other matters in- ereased jurisdiction is conferred in like proportion. Juror's fees are increased to $4 per diem and power is given to the county council, or in the case of a district, to the Lieutenant - Governor in Council, to increase this amount to $5 per diem. The Mortgagors' and Purchasers' Relief Act passed as a war mea- sure in 1915 has been exte,nded from time to time until it would in the ordinary course have expired at the close of the recent Session. It was feared that the date being undeter- mined a great deal 'of hardship might be caused by allowing the Act to lapse without any extension. After much consideration the Attorney -General recommended the Bill which became law and which provides for the extension of the Act until the 1 st day of October, 1920, but postpones payment of principal money or purchase money which will,be overdue at that date to the next in- terest day there -after or the 1st day of Jan- uary, 1921, whichever shall be the earlier date. It was thought that this would pro- • Hon. Mr. Raney vide ample time for mortgagors and pur- chasers to make arrangements to provide for their obligations with- out causing hardship either to the mortgagor or the mortgagee. The Attorney -General also put through an Act enabling him or the Cron Attorney to authorize police magistrates in districts to conduct inquests in place of the regular coroner, this baying been found necessary more particularly in the case of deaths caused in the operation of railway§. • ....,-,--4•.----- `CODIFICATION:--Two Acts, one entitled The Sale of Goods Act, 1920, and the other The Partnership Act, 1920, are intended to reduce to the form of a simple code the law on these two important subjects. These two Statutes are carefully adapted from the English ones with some changes required by the different conditions which prevail in this country, but iie one great advantage of legislation of this kind is that any person of average intelligence who may desire to know what his rights, duties and obligations are with respect to the matter dealt with can find then stated in simple language.These Acts will probably be followed by other codifications from time to time. While codification cannot suitably be adopted with respect to all branches of legislation and whilst reserves and safeguards must al- ways accompany Acts of this kind, there are many branches of the law which it is desirable should be better known and understood by the public at large and this can be accomplished by codification more suitably than in any other manner. LABOUR AND WAGES:—For the former provision exempting wages to the extent of $25 from attachment for debt other than for board and lodging, there has been substituted by The Wages Amend - (Continued to next week). • •••1,•••••••••••!4•1., Ottawa, Dec, 3.—There Is now every likelihood that Nova Scotia, Sasketche- Wan, Alberta and ManitObit will become dry towards the end of January, Since the plebiscites on importation were taken moths study hes been given to a 6urious legal situation which has arigen, The point- was whether the Government vendors could be properly Gassed as holding licenses. If so, action to prohibit importation would be taken under one clause of the Temperance Act, if not under another clause, and between the two there is a difference of at least 30 days in the period within which liquor may still be Imported for personal use. Although the opinion of the Govern- ment's legal advisers has not been made public, it is said to favor the view that the reference to licenses in the Canada Temperance Act does not mean licensed vendors for medicinal and sacramental purposes, if this view is accepted, importation into tie four provinces can be prohibited by the Dominion Government at any time after the official returns have been received, and the prohibition will take effect "after the expiration of 30 days from the day of the date of an order In Council to that effect."

All teachers are aware of the need for the best possible drill in life. The idea one so often hears expressed Is: since my child ls only beginning her studies, any teacher will do. If such a man Is about to build a house, shall we hear him say: since am only laying a foundation, any kind of trashy material will do, but when I get tothe roof I will engage the finest roof makers in the world. Then we Will agree that just as the husbandman carefully prepares the ground before he puts in the seed so does the teacher, for the teacher will confine himself to one thing at a Aeintileu. teacher will • think more of his pupils' musical development than of the class he is likely to obtain, it is certainly up to the teacher to make it interesting, not amusing. The child who Is destined for. a musical career should receive as much musical instruction in early life es is compatible with the child's health and receptivity. ' , Children learn far more rapidly than adults, the childs power of ab- sortion in music study between the ages of eight and twelve is simply enormous, between twelve and twen- ty it is less and still less between twenty and thirty and lamentably small between thirty and forty. There are yet exceptional cases of astonishing development late in life to the enormous ambition and indus- try.
