Great alarm is excited when a case of smallpox breaks out, There is at once a hurrying and scurrying such as is noticeable in a ben yard when a hawk is hovering. The un. fortunate victim is looked upon as a vehicle to the most dangerous pestilence. Special and extraordin- ary precautions are taken to en- shroud hire or her from the .pos- sibility of contact with other hu- mans. This was very well at a for- mer period when smallpox worked great havoc as one of the most odious and perilous of plagues. But how is it today when the danger has been curbed by vaccinnation and rendered by cynical science unnocuous in comparison with some other diseases? The fear lingers in the human mind like a hateful heritage. 'but is it Warranted? Examine the tables of mortality for 1904-5, just returned by the provincial hoard of health. Of 129 cases of smallpox in two years not one death is recorded, whereas diphtheria with 008 cases, returned 93 deaths. Measles, which in old London is rated the most fatal of diseases. gave seven deaths from 105 cases, and typhoid fever Prov. ed fatal in 84 caves out of 220. In the list we do not put tuberculosis, the most fatal of all, but only those contagious affections which may be classed with sm all pox in virulence. It is seen that the latter it a very mild and harmless disease in com- parison, hardly justifying the alarm in individual cases. TEACHERS' SALARIES. The Whitney Government pro- poses to take measures looking to the increase in the remuneration of school teachers. As salaries in ninny cases are ridiculously low, this move should meet with the ap- proval of the masses. There was a time when the duty of state in the matter of the education of the young was riot fully acknowlod red, nor its value to the community pro- perly realized. Perhaps even vet there is a lingering remnant of the old prejudice, l•`ut it ought not to be alloyed to interfere with recog;. nation of the obligation to provide a thoroughly sound and efficient system of public instruction fitted to supply the needs of the twentieth century, For that purpose there must be a competent staff able to cope with the grove and resnnnsih le duiies it is expected to fulfill, It cin only be obtained by offs+rine re- muneration at least approxitnn ti ng that obtained. in other avocations canine forth special trat.inth . and aptitude. The pedagogic. profession yields to none in intrinsic import. anc•c, since it deal; with human life at its most receptive and formative stage and leaves ineffaceable marks in disposition and character. "SVllile it has its compensations. the work is trying and arduous, if consnienti ons1v performed, and it is therefore all the mere necessary that tea eh ors be freed. froau pecuniary rata:; inn vitalale where salaries are insnfli- oient to provide reasonable com- forts': H'IaSV.li13. MARRIAGES 1\O —A - DAY S. Ila chelors are numerous and children are few in a long strip of country extending from the. (.;eor- eian Bay down to the River Tham- es, at least, throngh the counties of Bruen and Huron and the west. ern part of Middlesex. The causes are, no doubt, com- plex, and need long and careful study to state fully incl accurately, But the fact, with one or two pos- sible reasons, is contained in n re- port made by one sof the Farmers' Institute lecturers to Mr. Geo. A, Putnam, Superintendent of Insti- tnte work. Lack of proper farm help is lead - sing to a, change in the charaetor of :arming end social con ditiens throughout the country mentioned Farms are being given up to graz- ing and no longer produce grain or are devoted to mixed farming, graz- ing entailing the least amount of care of any line of agriculture.• l3uildings are going to wreck and for want of sufficient stock to graze over large farms portions of the land aro becoming covered with weeds.• Without help it has been found impossible to keep up the farms, the young men have not been able to marry with any hope of bringing up a family properly and inane, have moved Nest, and farms are depreciating. Within the district covered by the lecturer who makes the report there are morel?a.cholors anal fewer children than in any other district off the sire in older Ontario. In one school section in Middlesex the schools have been closed because there is only ono child of school age in .the district.— Toronto News; ilt,"3`43.-44+43.-4-3*-430-+£4*-0.*E+4+-40-011 COUNTY NEWS.
