PARDONN1 Z MOI,
The conlnlunicetion from the pen
of "Pardonnez. Moi," in last week's
issue, is worthy of special notice.
Though we may not agree with hint.
In all his deductions, still in the
main we are bound to admit that he
is right, and we are glad to know
that there is, after all, existing right
in our midst, one unselfish enough
to advocate a cause, not simply for the
pecuniary benefit he himself may de-
rive therefrom but simply for the
good that may accrue to the commu-
nity. If however, Pardonnez Moi
wrote his article for the sake of
stirring discussion or: the question,
for the sake of causing an agitation
its the favor of a high school, we are
iacline;d to think that he made a
grave mistake, one that balked Ins
whole purpose, by stating that he
-tail no as to grind. Had he held
himself more in seclusion, we have
no doubt that there would have been
a stack of commun€e inions in answer
to his, all denouncing him as e
.schemer with a batch of youngsters
ready to awake use of such an iustitu-
tion.We have great faith in the future
of Wingbatn. There is I,o town in
Ontario with a brighter prospect.
Wingbatn bas grown from a there
hamlet to its present proportions
while neighboringtowns have stood
still; we believe it will continue to
grow. With its fine situation, its
railway facilities, its rich strround-
ing agricultural country, ars merit-
orious industries, it is destined if its
affairs are judicially managed to be
the great inland town of Ontario,
Bat we must keep abreast of tate
the times, and while we have an ex-
cellent publie sebool, and tato credit
to ourselves for the liberal way that.
4t is supported, yet it cannot be de-
nied that we are practically "in the
woods" as to higher education. It(
sloes net require any argument to
show out deticiency in this particu-
lar. Evidences of it Crop up every
daily, either in the way of seeing
yeana then an young women goingto
other towns to secure those education-
td advantages which should be pro-
vided at home, or others who are ab•
whitely shut out from such advan-
tages, because they cannot afford to
go elsewhere. A. town possessing
the thrift and prosperity that Ping
hate possesses should not be contented
Provmeagre wiwitha providing such a mea re edacti-
b
tion for its Children as even the best
pabfie school education provides, nor
61tould it depend on any of its neigh -
laces for any additional advantage.
It is true that education comes high,
but it isa. good investment; there is
no better.
It will be claimed that eur taxes •
are now vary high. Granted they
are high,. too high by far for what
can be shown for it, but it is quite • l
within the range of possibility for as t
to p.rsseas high school, advantages i
with little or no cost to the muniel-'
putty, In establishing' a new ,
school the great primary outlay is " t
for a building. We would. not re-
fluke to make such en outlay. We
have already rooms that with but i
Mall cost could be made do service d
fer a three mastersehootifneeessary
A town hail may be an ornament to
a municipality. but in pint of use. a
fulness it is not to be compared with
t high school. The lower rooms of .b

t rrta,.$ *t on�e ualen t. for high school
purposes, and the ratepayers would
soon cease to look upon it .as a build-
that was not great use to the town.
As to the running expenses f such a
school, we believe we are justified in
staying that it would be setfsusttain.
ink'. At first the average atter+ranee
would net exceed 75 pupils, and It
would not be ne;:essary to take up
work in ads once of the junior leave
ing course of study, To do this it
would require two teachers. By re-
ferring to the report of the Minister
of Education for 181/6, It will be
seen that the average Legislative
Grant for schools of this class was,
e618. a'lfunieipal Grant $529; Fees
for pupils at $10 per year, $750..
Making a total of $17,17. Then
again by relieving the public; schools
of all pupil. above the entrance, we
would dispense with at least one
teacher,a saving of a Ieast f;100,Add-
ing this to the grants and fees as a
practical saving to the town and it
will give a total of $2097. Now it
will be found also by any one who
will take the trouble to look into the
question that out of the 94 High
Schools in the province, 1G are con-
ducted on an annual average
expenditure of less than
t2;t100, including teachers salaries,
repairs, fuel, addition to apparatus'
libraries,. and outer contingeueies.
These are • not figures conjured by a
high school enthusiast, which will
not stand e practical test; they are
the indisputable records of schools
that are doing excellent work in
higher education. throughout the
province, Then why should Wing.
ham with these fats end figures be-
fore us, with a radius of ten miles of
wealthy eountry from which to
draw pupils, and with our own
young people absolutely suffering
because of the lack of such advan-
tages, .why should Winglaain stand
longer in her own light. A high
school we must have sooner or later,
and the time has c orae when it
it should be started.
