As ArXament for Ceesoli,Csted Schoolif•-A Teacher's Association on the New Ihreuiatlons. A Circular from the Department. The Minister of Education has is- sued a circular to Public achool in- spectors dealing with the question of the improvement of school accommo dation. In July last a circular was sent out in regard to the minimum equipment obligatory, and Instruc- tions were given that it -should be carried out as soon as practicable. Homo tuiaapprehenulon seems to prevail among the Inspectors as to their method of causing new im- provements to bo carried out, and the Minister suggests that "at tt time when the department is r. quiring a minimum equipment, and In some cases it considerable inoreaso of the teachers' salaries, the inspector can- not he too careful in enforcing his suggestions. JUDICIOUS PERSISTENCE. "Not all the desirable and practi- ca.hle improvements can be secured in a abort thne. In many cases it will take yearn before the conditions of the schools will become satisfactory, and at first the inspector should se- cure the changes that arra of prime Importance. The key to the situation is Judicious persistence." It has been brought to the minis- ter's notice that some trustees, through fear of losing the govern - mens grant, have been induced by canvasing agents to purchase, at exor- bitant prices, supplies far in excess of what is required. TO PROTECT SCHOOLS.° Inspectors are, therefore, request- ed to take whatever stops they may think necessary to protect the inter- ests of the schools under their su- pervision, and, if in any case, an in- justice has been done which demands an investigation to report the facts in full to the Department, As far as possible, inspectors ahould also Seo that no favoritism is shown to any firm furnishing school sup- plies, but that free and fair competi- tion is allowed' to all in order that trustees mai have the full benefit thereof, both as to prices and to qual. ity of materials offered. MAY EXTEND TIME. The original directions were that when the inspector was eatlafed that a Board is too poor to comply with the requirements he was to extend at his discretion the time for provid- iqgg the equipment to the summer of 1908. "Under present conditions, es- pecially in view of the ruiaunder- standinga that have arisen In con- nection with the educational reforms introduced during the present year, it will be well for you to construe the foregoing provision with judic- ious liberality," says the Minister. Rural School Consolidation. The Problem of the Rural School is a perennial topic at educational conventions. Just now it has awakened a wider interest. Politi• clans are seeking a new solution and the people in general are complaining of the partial solution which the Government haa,Jlffered, The salary clauses of the new Public School Aot are likely to do much to improve the standing of the teacher, unless they session of the Legislature. Bqt are "modified" to death at the next the Rural School problem touehea more than the poor abilities of teachers and the payment of small salaries. There is the diliiculy of handling seven or eight classes in one room, the surall- ness'of the classes and the consequent look among the pupils of a proper degree of emulation. There aro ven- tilation and sanitation, both the bag. bear of a teacher's life, for rural schools mitten), are not fltted for the practice of these two virtues. There are the distances many pupils have to walk, and the likelihood of absentees or tardy pupils on wet or wintry days. This is the meagreness' of sctiaofegtiip- ment. All these are other aspects of the great problem of modern educa- tion. There is a remedy, perhaps expen- sive, but certainly effectual. It is the consolidation of four or five adjoining sections into adistrict, the building of a large graded school aC the centre of the district, and the carriage of obild• ren to and from this centrad school at the public expense. By thio means the country boy or girl would have Just as many advantages as the child brought up in a town. or city. The current number of The School Trustee deals with thio subject of school con- solidation In an effectual and valuable manner. Pull reports are given of the eohools instituted at Guelph and at liingeton. N. B., by the Mae„donald foundation, and also of the progress of consolidation in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. At the Riverside, N. B., Consolidated School the cost of driving the ohildren to and from school was $1,131.20 for a year, and the attendance was greater by 40 pupae than in the four separate, eohools hefore union. The school building is well heated and properly ventilated, the children do not get wet feet or wet clothing therefore they are In better average health, the school work is done with greater facility because of the gradings the teachers are better gnalifed, end grading, is a proper equipment. In Massa- chusetts, where this scheme has been In operation for 18 years, it has been found cheaper than the district school plata, but so far in Canada there has been no saving in money. But It is time the people of Ontario made up their minds to the fact that; henceforth they must pay more for the' education of their eblldren if they hope to have them instructed Properly. The country child is usually in better physical condition than his city cousin. and with a fair chance often ontatrips him in mental power. He does not deserve the educational handicap un- der which h -!Attars. isj', worthy et ut he fair aeon n t get that faiid get r show it his parents are Unsettling to pay for it.

Teachers' Salaries in West Huron. In the inspectorate of West 'Huron there are tai rural public school sec- tions. There are ten assistant teach- ers employed in these schools. making 100 teachers in the rural schools of this inspectorate for 1907. Under the "minimum salary" scheme, 27 auctions must pay the principal $500, 88 sec- tions must pay $450, 27 sections trust pay $400 and 4 sections must pay $35() each. The assistants must receive at least $500 each. Four principals and three asslstatnts receive more than the minimum salary. In Usborne town- ship all the teachers receive $500, and in East Wawanosh not one receives $500. There are nine teachers in each of these municipalities. The total amount of the salaries of the 106 rural public school teachers in West Huron for 1907 will be .$40,025, which' is $225 more than the sum of the minimum salaries. In 1900, the shin paid the 100 rural teachers, was $38,300, and in 1905 it was $37,750. The general township grants levied under Sec. 89 (2) and (31 of 1900 for these 100 teachers amount to $30,- 800. The further sum of $15,225 for teachers' salaries must be levied by special rates on the different school sections. The sum of the minimum salaries is $45,800, being 37,440 more than the salaries paid in 1000. There are 00 schools or departments of the 1011, which haye changed teachers since January 1906 and 10 have changed twice. What Horticultural Societies Can Do The new regulations quoted last week in THE 81411 show clearly that Horticultural Societies can no longer operate on the old plan of amalgamat- ing with Agricultural Societies, if they wish to retain the Government grant, but this does not mean any limitations or curtailment of their usefulness, as the following examples quoted from successful societies abundantly drew ; The St. Thomas Hort'! Soc. was or- ganized in Jan. 1006, and we enrolled over 80 members. Our first work was to start a lawn and garden competition. We have been trying to get the city council to beautify certain plots and to acquire property for park purposes in the city. In conjunction with the school& of the city, a flower show was held on Sept. 2:7. No prizes were offered, hut through the school child- ren a large exhibit was secured, THE OANADIAN HORTICULTURIST toad given to each member and bulbs were distri- buted In Oct. We expect to distribute seeds next spring to the school children and to our members. Acommittee of two of our members contributed sea- sonable articles to our daily papers, for the information of membere. On Dec. 0, a public lecture was given by P. M. Thompson, M.A., Science Master of the Coll. Inst. on "Plant Societies." There was a good attendance. We expect a strong society next year.—S. Silcox, Pres. Tho Kincacdino Hotel Soc.'s work the past veer has exceeded the work of the former 7. Its progress is steadily onward. Every encouragement is given to plant for recreation and profit. Nearly every garden and home is em- bellished with plants of retro beauty and merit. We have encouraged, the culture of fruits, and always place a fair propor- tion of fruit trees bushes and vines upon our premium list, as well as plants and buttes We aim to give every mem- ber many times more value than fa got trona the ntemberabip fee of $1, as you will see by the following list of trees and plants presented to the members Fruit trees, 102; lilies, 1081 perennial phlox, 15, calias, 24 ; dahlias, 40; glad. ioli. 150; tulips, 805; hyacinths. 210; amities, 89; geraniums, 190 ; roses, 98 ; and shrubs, 85. Our membership the past year was about 133. Wo hope to have it over 1511 the coming year. Our annual show was held on Aug. 90, and was well patronized by young and old. From the schools were about 250 pupils, and there was a steady stream of visitore, many wishing that the exhibition wontd be open the fol- lowing day. Tho flower show was free to all and a handsome display. Many of the plants would be no die. credit to professionals. A very in- rktructiv lecture e mai given byProt H.

To the Editor of The Globe : Sir, -1 ask for space in your columns to quote from a letter received at this office For obvious reasons I do not give the name. The letter reads : " I have a sad case to present to you. Twelve years ago a mother died, leaving six small children, the eldest eight years old and thoe our t v g s an infant. My mother took tho eldest and kept her until my mother's death. Then the young girl went clerking on small wages. Last year she contracted a cold of which she has never been free, and she has been unable to work since last January. She is just nineteen years old. KIndly tell me how to proceed to get her into the Muskoka Free Hospital for Consumptives." The sad part of itis this letter is only one of many—alike pathetic and a pealing—that are being received daily by the writer. Fifty-flve patients are in residence in the Muskoka Free Hospital to -day. Seven hundred and thirty-eight have been cared for since tho'haspital was opened in April, 1902.
