PLOWING MATCH
'Weeds of cars passed through
telaorthon Tuesday and Wednesday
Pt this week, all bound for the meet-
ing ,pf the plowmen of the province,
which annual affair is this year 'being,
Weld near Stratford.
And hundreds of more cars will pass
through during the next two days, all
bound in the same direction, because
the Provincial Plowing Match has !be-
come one of the most interesting spec-
tacles it would be possible to provide
for the people of agricultural Ontario.
The competition provided is of the
keenest possible kind and the class of
plowing the contestants provide would
be outstanding in any province or
country.
This provincial match differs from
most great fairs and exhibitions in
that there is no midway, no sideshows,
no races, or special attractions of any
kind.
Yet it is estimated' that upwards of
50,000 people will attend during the
four days the matches are held. This
shows that a good exhibition of even
a part of farm work holds an all ab-
sorbing interest for the ,people of the
rural communities.
It is an educational feature, pure
and simple; one that shows the best
'ways to prepare the land in order to
produce the greatest Yields, and farm-
, ers are not slow to see its advantages.
There is, also, another educational
feature about the Provincial Match
that holds a world of interest too,
and that is the display of all kinds of
farm implements and machinery.
This is a machine age, scarcity of
farm labor has largely helped t, make
it so, and new, quicker and better ways
of farming must be adopted if success
is to be assured.

HOME WORK IN SCHOOLS
The homework question in schools,
always a live topic with children, par-
ents and teachers, has been receiving
unusual attention throughout the
Province during the past month or
two.
In speaking of this question, the
Brockville Recorder and Times in a
recent editorial said:
Experienced teachers who have tried
both plans are almost unanimous
in
favor of relieving the youngsters
from this home drudgery. In fact, the
homework to the young child is a reg-
ular nightmare, because he does not
Z nAlerstsn i ' h'co:ning thing about
what he is trying to learn, and unless
the parents are willing and competent
to teach the youngsters, their minds
are only (befuddled. Too many text-
books, too much effort at memorizing
unintelligible facts, wear the young-
sters out and get them nowhere.
And there is a lot of truth in that
paragraph. Homework, of course, var-
ies with schools. Some have more,
some less, but there seems to be a
growing conviction that homework is
becoming the biggest end of an edu-
cation.
'In fact we have heard more than a
few parents express their firm con-
viction that they taught their children
in the home the lessons which the
teachers heard next day in school, and
after hearing them allotted new ones
which would in turn be taught again
that night at home.
That, while it may have been more
or less true in a few cases, is by no
means the general ,situation. Nor are
the great majority of teachers to
blame for excessive homework. The
teacher only covers the course of
study prescribed by the Department
of Education,
Whether the teacher is able to teach
the course prescribed, successfully,
with a minimum amount of homework
depends in many, if not all, cases on
the class he or she has to teach. And
parents are a more determinating
factor in the calibre of a class than
most people give them credit for.
Many parents are more interested
in pushing their children through
school than they are in the extent of
the education these children absorb
during this pushing process. Their
aim is to create an age record at
which the child passes from the pub -
lit 'school to the high school and from
the high school to some other seat of
higher learning.
Children, like parents, are not all
of the same mentality. If a pupil is
put in a higher room before he has
the grounding or qualification to ea-
ter it, that presence means a slowing
up of the whole class, more time has
to be given to hili or them and in
the end it really spells more home-
work.
;We do not believe the average
teacher is any more anxious to give
thriidwork than the average pupil is
to receive it, or the average parent to
lueve to •da it, (tut if the Edi nation
ilelttment insists on increasing the

Successful Fowl Supper: --The fowl
supper held on Wednesday evening of
last week, under the auspices of the
Ladies' Aid of 'Carmel Presbyterian
Church, was a great success in every
respect. The weather being (very fine,
there was a large attendance, many
coming from quite a distance and be-
ing well repaid for doing so, for in
addition to a most bountiful fowl sup-
per, there was a very fine programme
following. The musical part was most
ably given by the Harmonic Quart-
ette, of Listowel, assisted by a most
pleasing and versatile reader, and all
the selections were alike well chosen
and- rendered and much enjoyed as
the rapturous applause gave good evi-
dence of. The supper, as provided by
the ladies, could not well be excelled
both for quality and abundance, and
so great was the provision provided
that the ladies were able to serve a
first class fowl dinner the following
day, which was well patronized and
much enjoyed by all attending. The
proceeds of the fowl supper and din-
ner
inner following netted a very satisfac-
tory sum.
Death of George Case,—We regret
to have to report the death of one of
our most highly respected residents,
in the person of George Case, whose
death 'occurred in the early hours of
Wednesday morning of this week from
heart failure. Mr. Case had been in
declining health for the past couple
of years, but until some months ago,
was able to be down street, but dur-
ing a number of past weeks was con-
fined to his room 'at time's. The de-
ceased was in his 75th year, and was
most highly deservedly respected for
his very many excellent qualities,'
About 20 years ago he and his wife,
who now survives him, moved from
their farm on the London Road, a
couple or so miles south of our vil-
lage, le Herman, where they have con-
tinued to live. Mr. Case was a man
of the mast kindly disposition which
made him a general favorite -anti was
most sociably inclined and fond of
games, such as bawling, etic., and
will be much missed from our green,
where he could be seen so often en -
SO.
Our local fraternal {organizations
are looking to an increased attend-
ance with''the fall and coming winter
nights, and card parties among the
fair sex are being reorganized.
With the very fine and summer like
weather of the past week, our Can-
adian people feel that there is no need
to be thinking of or planning a visit
to Florida and other fair climes, but
of course there is no guarantee of
continuance.
Our council have put a good liberal
coating of screened gravel on a num-
ber of our side and back streets,
which will keep them in fine condi-
tion for the late fall, winter and early
spring months.
Our streets, yards and sidewalks,
in common with other places at this
time of the year, are becoming deeply
coated with leaves from the trees, and
instead of burning them, a good prac-
tice is to gather and spread on gar-
dens and around plants and bushes
as the protection and benefit to the
land is wonderfully productive.
The farmers are complaining in this
section that the rainfall so far has
not been sufficient for fall ploughing,
particularly .so in heavy and stiff
land.
Mr. and Mrs. A. W. E. Hemphill,
who were in Toronto recently, Mr.
Hemphill combining business with

will be observed in the United Church
on the coming Sunday, the 19th, at
the morning service. _
The recent showers, while not heavy
have greatly helped the roots, coops
in fields and gardens.
Quite a number from this district

Mr. Colin S. Hudson, courier on
Hensall Route No. 2, has treated him-
self to a nice new driver, with which

On Monday eveniing, October 20th,

A., are entertaining Miss Irene Isaac,
missionary teacher in the diocese of

ing with the W. A. and other mem-
bers of the church to meet Miss Isaac
who will give an interesting descrip,
tion of Japan, its customs and her
work in the kindergarten echool. It
is hoped that everyone will take the
opportunity of talking with the mis-
sionary personally and' of learning
more of our work in Japan. Visitors
from other denominations are cordial-
ly invited to join with us. Miss Isaac
who is a cousin of Rev. M. B. Parker.
is already knoiwn to several members
of the church.
