"lo a recent issue, the followityl article, which will be of spacial interest to readers of The Signal. was published: One night I had a dream which seems W et in so well with the story of our "worker of today" that I think I must sell all about it. I saw in my dreams • great army of chubby, rosy-cheeked, merry—eyed children. As they walked they laughed. talked. sang and played. Evidently they were tieing some place they liked. and, curious to know where so many thousands of children were docking, 1 followed them. Presently we carpo to an tmmenoe bul►ding, the longear, larifeat, tallest building I had ever seen. lltrough Its wide-open doors the children streamed, and within were met by other children who had arrived earlier, and by young women with kind faces. The kiddies were ushered into great rooms, where the walls were lined with books. and where long tables were covered with magazines, books and pictures, Presently the young women gathered the children Into different groups, showed them pictures. read 'aortas, and explained to them many things they had not understood. Seeing • woman standing Idly by. I ventured to ask, "Who are all these little people?" and she answered: "These aro Canadian children: this is their library, and the young ladles yon see aro librarians tied story tellers. Mb. Boss of books are on tho shelves. for all sorts and condition+ of children. while thousands of juvenile papers and mag- azines full of picturesare scattered over the tables. Then, as the mother finished speak- ing, a merry peal of laughter went up from • group of children who were en- joying the telling of a charming story. I looked at their radiant faxes, and murmured: "Happy, happy little Cana- dians"' At this point. curiously enough. the scene changed. Again I saw a great gathering of children, but this time they were thin. pale, dejected. Ill -ted and ill -clad. As they marched, some dropped down with exhaustion, others limped wearily along. many were crying and some wore quarrelling. No person seemed to be taking any. interest In these little ones, and as they docked by 1 risked an onlooker: "Who are these children, and where are they going?' These are Chinese," Jame the reply. "but I do not know where they are go - 1 "Perhaps," said I, remembering the former picture, "perhaps they too are going to • children's library." My companion looked at me in sur- prise, of cxourae not uedersunding my reference, then answered: "No, indeed. there are no chlktren's libraries to China and practically no children's books. Why, minions upon millions of Chinese never see the in- side of a book, never hear a story pret- tily told, and never learn to read. They are born, live and die to ignorance." Then the tread of tiny feet ceased, the vision vanished. and I awoke, to and myself in my own comfortable home. Now dreams are silly Wage. I admit, but sometimes they leave • great impression, and so for days I found myself trying to imagine what life must be like to children who never see a picture -book. Shortly after this I had the pleasure of talking to Mrs. Mae0illivny, whose plccute appears today , and she had many interesting things to tell about China, where she uvea, about the children of that land, and especially about the work g to is doing to brighten their sad young lives. It 15 twenty-one years since Mrs. MacOi111vray left her home In England for a mission field in China. During that time she has done a great deal in the way of tranalating good books Into Chinese. Her husband, Dr. MaeGilli- vray, devotes all his time to literary work and has also done mach translat- ing. They make their home in Shang - hal. the great printing centre of Chins. People will tell you that Dr. and Mrs. MaeGllllvray are mieeionariea of the Canadian Prete bytertse church. and In a sense this is true. but the work that they carry on - the translntinit and printing of bettks-- le not oonfiued to any - burcli, so it may more truthfully be said that they are literary mtsstonsrica belonging to many churches and many c ountr►es. Many of the Circletten have written to the piece about their love for the popular book, "Beautiful Joe." It w111 be interesting then to know that Mee. MacGillivray has translated this lovely story into Chinese, and that it has been read over and over again by loth the grown people and children of that country. Another book translated by STI.'DY AND AMUSEMENT. Mrs. Mactimivrwy Ir "Too Wide, Wile World." In doing this, she employed a Chinese writer, who put down In Chlueee what she dictated. much, I suppose. as • stenographer would do. For weeks the neo went daily to do this writlag. but at last there arrived • morning when for some reason the task had W be omitted. He turned sway regretfully. and later explained bow disappointed he had telt over the Interruption. Ilia family at-home were also greatly disappointed, and amend groups of friends, all of whom awaited eagerly each day the unfolding ut this pretty tale. This gives some idea of how appreciated stories are among the Chinese. There is not, 1 believe, a nation in the world that toes not love a well -told story. Souse tour years ago there dawned a bright new day tor the children of China. 1t was the birthday of the nest Chinese Children's Magazine. It chanced that a lady from the I'oited States, on tutu thre Uti$gb Chtua, teak tea one afternoon with Mn. liacGllilvny. Over the teacups they diacwowd the No ! for them the theatre, the movie, fortunes or tubdortunes of the Chineste, the rink, the toboggan slide or the merry and one thing mentioned was the tact dance.

('anadiana can scarcely grasp the idea that such a thing has not yet appeared, and that Christmas comes and goes without all the joys that aro so familiar to us. Only money is needed to make this dream • reality, and to give the kiddies of China the rapture of seeing and reading a real picture book. Perhaps. tucked away In the purees of seine of our Circle mem- bers, there may be a few pennies that could be spared for this precious Christmas treat for China.

Co-operative Experiments in Wood Eradication. This experimental work was commenced in 1912 and has been conducted now for seven successive years The object of this work is to have carried on by men on thea own farms experiments in the eradi- cation of weeds, the results of which will furnish data from which definite inform ation may be obtained regarding the best methods of controlling the various trouble- some weeds of the Province. Before the results of these experiments began to accumulate there was very little or no definite knowledge concerning the eradi- cation of weeds. The weeds experimented with are per- ennial sow thistle, twitch grass, bladder campion or cow bell, wild mustard. ox- eye daisy, field bindweed or wild morning glory. wild oats and chess. Each spring leaflets are sent out to numerous farmers of the Province inviting all who have any of these troublesome weeds on their farms to co-operate with us in this work and try the experiment outlined for the particular weed which is giving them trouble. Application forms for the experiments accompany the leaf- let& To those who fell in these and return them detailed directions for the carrying out of the experiment selected are vent. and in the fail they are supplied with blank forms on which to report the results of their work. In the past seven years (1912-18) over sixty farmers have co-operated in this work and some valuable information has been obtained. It may be briefly sum- marized as follows: 1. That good cultivation followed by rape sown in drills provides a means of eradicating both perennial sow thistle and twitch grass. 2. That rape is a more satisfactory crop to use m the destruction of twitch grass than buckwheat. 3. That thorough, deep tultivati.-n in CALI.

Regarding the Teacher. Under the above heading one of our exchanges truthfully remarks that when the son or daughter comes home from school with a complaint against the methods of a teacher, it is easy for the fond parent to take the evidence and form an opinion accordingly. Teachers are about as human as other folks. Like other mortals they sometimes make mistakes. Not all of them can have the best methods of conducting classes. Some of thea[ aro not sufficiently equipped for teaching. A few of them might be better clerks or seamstresses just as a few ministers or lawyers or editors might be tetter brick makers. But here is a peculiar thing. A parent can formulate an opinion in a minute and condemn a teacher as incompetent when he hears one bit of evidence from his daughter or son. He can make up his mind that the teacher has no place in the school. Perhaps he lets the teacher know that he is dissatisfied with her work. Perhaps he even goes to someone in auth- ority in the school system. But the mortals are very few it ho take the same trouble to let a teacher know their appre- ciation when a teacher conducts her classes as they think she should or when she does good work in some particular dans or course. Our educational work it so important and essential that it should get the con- sideration of the parents. But there is one simple suggestion: Why not give the teacher an occasional word of thanks and enoruragement when she does her work well -instead of expressing your feelings only when she does something that does not meet your approval ? Incidentally. this little bit of thanks and encourage- ment would not only make the teacher feel better but it would make her a better ins.ructor, MILLINERY TRIMMED AND UN - tenanted hats, clever new deslgus; turbans and other modish shako, anal staple dressy sailors.

Equal Responsibility for Their Support Rests Upon the Farmers and Merchants -Must Assist Each Other - Prosperity of Community Depends Upon -Each of These Two Classes Buying Products and Goods of Each Other. i (Copyright.) The first essential in the development of any business is the possession of a market. The manufacturer must have a market dor his products ur he cannot succeed, no matter how valuable those products may be or how efficiently his plant may be operated. The wholesale merchant and the retail merchant may have the choicest stocks af goods, but they may as well go out of busjness if they have not a market where they can dispose of their stocks. The farmer may produce' bumper crops, but they will rot upon the ground if ,he cannot find a market for thew. The wage earner's skill and muscle bring him nu returns unless there is a market fur his labor. The question of markets is the big one in every line of business and in every community the question is a vital one In each community, which must be taken to include not only all the people who live iu the town but the farmers who live in the surrounding country as well, there are two sides to the market question. The business men of the town must have a market for the things which they have to sell. Otherwise they cannot continue in business. At the same time the farmers must have a market for the things which . they raise or they may as well go out of business. When Either Fails Suffer. The merchants of the toff a can vide a market for the products of the farmers and the far rs can provide a market for the goods which the merchant's have to sell. As long as each class of citizens provides a market for the other class all is well and the goose hangs high, bat when either class fails to provide a market for the other the goose is cooked, not only for the class which is deprived of the market but for the other as well. The farmer has a rignt to expect the town which is his natural trading point to provide a market for his products, and the town is not performing its proper function as the trading centre of its community if it does not see that such a market is provided. The responsibility of looking after the fuftllment of this obligation rests largely upon the merchants of the town. The farmer is a producer and he mallet dispose of his products before he eau become a con- sumer. It is, therefore, not only right but necessary from business standpoint that the merchants should aid the farmer in turning his products into money. Otherwise the farmer naturally will have no mouey to spetud in the stores sof the town. TWO SPECIAL BARGAINS THIS week. --Our Upright Plano. lu good coalition, a sump at 4210.00.

On the other band, the merchants of the town have a right to expect the farmers to provide a market for the merchandise which they have to sell, and the farmers are not doing their duty to their community if they do not provide such a market. in this case, also, it is not only right but it is necessary to the prosperity of the farmers that they should aid the merchants in turning their mer- chandise into cash. Otherwise it is obvious that the mer- chants will have no money with which to buy the products of the farmers. This ix a double-barreled proposition and the obligation rests equally upon both the merchants and the farmers to maintain the marketa which are essential to both classes of citizens. Any town which would import from points hundreds of miles distant the farm products which it could buy at home would be pursuing a very short-sighted policy, for it would be making it impossible for the farmers in its territory to buy the goods of its merchants. As a matter of fact no town does thin unless it is forced by unusual conditions to do so. A town may be located in a community which is not productive enough to meet the local demands, and in that ease it is forced to import farm products but the town which in compelled to do this is at a disadvantage from a commercial standpoint unless it is essentially a mann- facturing town, in which case its products are sold to other communities and bring in enough cash to offset that which is sent away to purchase farm products. Must Have Outside Business. In the average community, however, the town is de- pendent for its prosperity upon the money received from the farmers in the ordinary channels of trade, rather than upon that obtained from the sale of its own products. In the average tove h the merchants cannot make money and continue in business if they are dependent solely upon the people of the town for their busineua. No bnsinesn can last, long with "everything going out and nothing coming in," and it in equally true that no busi- ness can he operated on the principle of "everything coming in and nothing going out." To maintain the balance which in necessary- to the maintenance of prosperity in a coin- munity there must be an even trade between the business men of the town. A WORD TO HOURIEWiVRS.
