PROGRESS ' As men and nations we are ac• eustomed to represent progress by a straight line, Yet when we think of ft, only short-sighted people think in this way: Science and history encourages no such belief - Hippocrates and Aescnlapius discov- ered centuries ago principles of snti- entitle medicine that are now being practiced. For more tban, two thousand years the principles these men discovered were ignored. Medicine did not Progress in a straight line. Vergi1, the Roman poet, ,discovpr'ed the foundation -principles of farming. Instead by adding to his knowledge and im- proving upon his practice, the farm- ing world passed his achievements merrily by, The same failure to add' to the good won by hard ex• perlence has chaiactenfzed the race in every one of her activities as far ae these apply in bunion bite, Lately wd leave been thinking that what- ever takete plan% good will come of et, No such easy way, of carrying on is justified. by events.

LET US CONSIDER THE WHOLE QUESTION ,S'ohool boards' are concernee with the neays that grants. are to be cut for eecottdaa'y educaition in Ontario, For. one thing, let us never forget that every scholar in the province means something for the progress and tttability of the commonwealth. Apart from sound IearnIngs, any commonwealth is headed' for barbarism. Without taking extreme grounds 1 Wide matter, we believe that there is occasion for a thorough locking inter our way of doing things in our secondary schools. 'We knew diet scores and soores• of scholars who manage, somehow, to get into our universities and institutions, run - ming neck and sleek with them, are doing poor work. Only once in a while tlo we hear pupils in such institutions say oe a pupil from seconeatry seboolsy "Ile carne to us well prepared." Only too often itusiness men have occasion to cam - plain of the Zack of thoroughness of the graduate from the secondary schools. Farmers, anxious about the welfare of their sons- hesafate to leave thein more than a year or so in the high school. The cause. Well, it lies in the fact that the pupil in the secondary school is allowed to take things easy, If he loafs, he ntay be scold- ed but words- break no bones; and they do not put vim ionto anyone. We know only that pupils are allow- ed to remain in secondary schools who have no intention of improv- ing themselves or of giving a penny- worth's return, for ,i'heir privileges. Yet these idlers, male and female, continue in these schools at the public exsiense, Such loitering are well known to the public who knew haw they come by their pennl1es and resent toiling to eup- port youth in ease and' idleness This is one of the, rubs in, the present ,situation, School boards who complain of the loss of granas should see it they are giving tbe public value for the money they are furnishing.
