• New Basis For School Grants.—The
new bases of crural public school grants
is on a sliding shale. Hitherto the grant
was ,40 p. c. on the salary over $00,
but under the new regulations the per-
centage varies from ..40 p. c.' to 20 .p.
according to assessment, and the a-
mount on which no grant is given is
also increased in large sections. To give
a concrete illustration; -A section with
an assessment of $180,000 or over will
be :given the minimum percentage of
itwenty. The amount on • which no
(grant is given 'is increased. . to four
hundred dollars in such sections,
therefore -the grant in a :section where
the (teacher has been receiving a salary
of $500 will be 20 'p. c. on .$1.00,: or
$20. Tia grant- order the former sys-
tem would have been $60.

The reeling in Britain
'According to. Mrs. George Heaton, of
Needles, B.C., who arrived in Canada
from\ Great Britain a few days ago, the
British people do not underrate the
magnitude of the : military task' that
lies before *hem. She says that' while
one can detect a note of quiet con-
fidence in the ultimate success of the
allied arms, the dominant feeling now
is intene'e realization of the need Tor
strenuous endeavor. People in England
Make no 'stock `in - the•..reports 'that Ger-
many is 'starving; they do' not believe,
etcher, that she is suffering from a
shortage of ammunition or that she is
likely so to suffer within any reason-
able period. They believe that the strug-
gle will be fought out to the bitter end
with enormous casualties on both sides
and with possibly :some momentary
successes for the Germans. -
Mrs. Heaton stayed near Edinburgh.:
She says there were frequent rumors
that several German ,submarines had
ventured as far as the Firth, rand that
more than one had been sunk. Despite
the fact that no one coul&get definite
information on the subject, the people
were inclined to accept their compara-
tive ignorance of events without re-
sentment.. `.
"I think they expect to Ibe kept in
the dark on 'many matters," she said.
"You know much more about the war
than the people of England do. Often
the English get.news from Canadian
journals and correspondence. But they
don't . grumble. They look on this trial
as part of ',the general burden and ac-
cept it with \fortitude. It is recognized
that the authorities,_ in order to keep
things secret from the Germans, must
also keep them secret from their own
people."

Under the captions "Stream of Gifts;
Canadian Aid for the Wounded; An
Example of Service," The London, Eng-
land, Times says
in part: :The

have been prompt in sending soldiers

Chief f C

,
Colonel Ho g
of '. the Canadian Red Cross, arrived
in London and establis d himself in
offices in Cockspur titre t. A teady
strearn; of gifts for the sic ;a
wound-
ed has since poured into this 'country,
inclLding a complete hospital at .Tap-
low, a coach for the Princess Christian
Hospital Train, 20 motor ambulances
for the- front, gifts of money to the
British Red Crassx of about X15,000,
and many thousands of packages of
comforts and clothing, the work of
love of Canadian women. Large num-
bers of Canadian doctors' and nurses
have been brought over, and Canadian
women in Britain have been organized
for service. From the wife of ;the ex -
Governor -General .to the bride of the
private in the "Princess Patricia's,"
waiting in London for news oc=her man
at the front, they have enrolled them -
pelves for practical work among the
victims of the war.
Immediately the war broke out the
society got to work. Churches and .so-
cieties of all kinds at o
nce opened n ear
onded
to its appeal; newspapers
columns to It ; groups of workers 1n all
parts began making and collecting corn-
.forts. Housewives in Ontario made
jams; British Columbian farmers
gave the pick of their apples; Winni-
peg and Halifax, Toronto and Van-
couver had their friendly rivalry about
which should do most. Before the end,
of the year, nearly three-quarters of
a million articles of clothing, etc., h4;d
been collected and despatched to \Eng-
land, besides medical supplies. When
the First Canadian Contingent reached
Plymouth in October, there were 1,700 .
packages from the Red Cross in the
holds of the ships. The society raised
In nboney up to the end .of the year
$219,291 (56,000).
Another 'brunch of the work of the
Canadian Red Cross can be seen at
Cockspur street, where the Canadian
women in England, under the lead of
Lady Drummond, have established an
Information Department. When any
sick or wounded Canadian soldiers ar-
rives in England, a local - visitor is no-
tified. It is her business to keep 1n
touch with him, and to let -the London
office know how he is. The London of-
fice ;keeps the friends of the Iran,
wherever they are, informed. It is dif-
ficult to overestimate the usefulness of
strh work as this, in allaying the
anxiety of distant friends, and intsee-
ing to the after-care of the injured
mar,. It is typical of Canadian thor-
oughness.
