The result of all of which is that there
is bound to he a plethora of teachers
of au inferior grade and transient or
der, and a fall in the market quota-
tion of teachers' salaries.
In no other profession or calling ilo
men and women endeavor to make a
door -mat of their vocation as do
teachers. Not once in a •Dore of
teachers wi 1 an acknowledgment be
made that the individual has made
that honorable calling the choice of
his or her life. Oh, no the usual
story is, " I'll teach for a year or two
11341 then 1'11 go lack to study, and
become a lawyer or a doctor, or a
preacher," kc., kc., ad uauseuw. The
w' ole trouble is that tLrre are not
enough real teacher; in the profession
who teach hee•auee they believe that
duty hes called them to labor in that
corner ot the vineyard, who love the
work for the work's sake. and who de-
sire to die in harness in the further-
ance of education and the hest inter-
ests of their thce.

THE C. P. R. TO GODERICH.
THE leasing of the Buffalo anel
Lake Huron R.R. by the Canadian
Pacific, particulars of which are given
on our first page, will give Goderich a
status which it never before enjoyed.
Instead of being looked upon as a
railway jumping-off place, the town
will now hold a potlttion ass great
transhipping point, and we look for a
corresponding benefit in the way of I
progress and inch of population.
If the C.P.R. does for Goderich
what it did for I )wen Sound, the peo-
ple
ecple of ''iia town will have reason to
biers the. .lay that the change of
lessees wee 'mule.
1.497 already promises to be a big
year for Goderich. An expenditure
of fully ¢100,000 will, in all prolabi!-
ity, be spent in harbor improvement-,
and the advent of the C.P.R. and its
tine of boats will give further impetus
to the business of the place.'
For all of which, those who have
teen living in hope for lo, these many
years, are truly thankful.
THE TEACHER'S LOT.
WHEN "The Qutlook for the Pub-
lic School Teacher," came ur for dis-
cussion at the recent gathering of the
West Huron tesachers, a very live
topic appear(%) before the chair. The
manner in which the Public school
teacher was being battles -kernel and
shuttlecocks) by the overcrowding of
the profession and the hardhearted-
ness sal shortsightedness of incotn'
petent trustees was very freely com-
mented upon, and t he commotion of
opinion was that tlellot of the public
school Masher, as at present exempli-
fied, was not a happy one.
That the vocation of teaching is be-
ing somewhat overcrowded at the pre-
sent time is no doubt true, and that
many trustees are elected Itecause of
their niggardly proclivities may also
be allowed, hut to our mind the rea-
son for hard times amongst teachers
and the overcrowding of the profession
is attributable to other causes. The
chairman,in enumerating the qualities
necessary to the •ooceasful teacher,
gave a list of attributes that would
have done credit to an antei of exalt,
ed place and power, and spoke of the
teaching profession M bring one in
which all the attributes enumerated
would find full scope . nevertheless,
the discussion that ensued brought
out the fact that • large portion of
those who entered it .did so nterely as
a stepping stone to some other sphere
of action --a sort a temporary camp-
ing ground and not a pressman plea.
of trust and duty.
And right here is where,we believe,
the trouble begin.. Of retedSt ears
it has toren quite common ler young
persons to take certificates and 'en-
deavor to obtain schools et as early an
sage as the law allowed. There are al-
ways to be found amongst trustees
those who would purchase ability as
they world any other eotmatorlity at •
bargain counter. A certificate in the
