CHATS ON EDUCATION At the Principal's Desk, Why do you parents send your chil- dren to school ?, • Some. . of ou perhaps merelyY P P be- cause the law compels you to dq so. I hope that is not 'true of many, for hu- man beings naturally resent compul- sion, and .the pupil who conies frdm a home where the compulsory law is resented` is9ikely to carry into the school an antagonistic attitude than makestheteacher's task difficult in- deed. ISocne primarily because you know that boys and girls who have the, ad- vantage of a fair share of schooling can as a rule earn more money after- wards than those who are handi- capped by inadequate schooling. Yet of all that your children might gain at school, wh'at would you put first and foremost ? Would it not be the development of character and personality ? Give any young man health, char- acter and personality, and his financial welfareand his standing as a citizen is assured. • In the development of character, Dr. J. H. Putman, of Ottawa, recently stated that the biggest factor in edu- cation is work. I1 Dr. Putman would change that last word and substitute two words, voluntary service, I should agree with him. Mere work has no virtue in the de- velopment of character. A thousand years of grinding toil under the lashes of 'taskmasters never developed any- thing finer than the cringing hatred of a slave. Voluntary cheerful service, inspired by the joy of action and good -mill to- wards others is a wonderful character builder. WEED, SEED AND FERTILIZER • Meeting for Farmers of District in the Town Hall, Saturday, March 8th. A meeting dealing with weeds, seed and'' fertilizers •will be held in the Town Hall, Seaforth, Saturday after- noon, March 8th at 2.00 p.m. The weed menace is one of the most serious problems facing the far- mer today; The Weed Act now hi ef- fect in the Province was made'neces- sary eces sary clue to the increased number of xveeds and the widespread loss they were causing. Through these tnetings we hope to make everyone more fam- iliar with the clauses of the Act and to point out the necessity of united action on the part of every farmer. This goes hand in hand with better seed grain and •modern. seed cleaning practices. The subject of commercial fertilizers concerns almost every far- mer, but there are many points in the selection of fertilizers which are not well understood. Many high analysis, high priced fertilizers may not return any greater profit than one of lower price.We must know what a fertil- izer contains, what each crop needs, the nature of the fertilizer require- ments for. different soil types. These with other factors are essential before til o e we can be sure that the right kind of fertilizer is' being sown, Three ,subjects --weeds, seed and fertilizers will be discussed in detail' and will be tinder the direction of the Ont. :Dept of. {Agriculture, Clinton, as'siste'd] by Mr. C. E. Toole, New- market. Keep this meeting in mind .and plan to attend. SPRING SHOWS. The District Circuit of Spring Shows is as follows: Seaforth, Tues- day, March 29th; )Mitchell, Friday, March 28th; Hensel) TtiesdYa April lst, •and Clinton, Thursday, April 3rd, The prize lists for the Seaforth Spring Show will be nut 00 Saturday and the prize list will also appear- in next week's paper. • * * Great emnergencies and disasters of- ten bring out unsuspected qualities of strength and beauty in character. The extreme appeal of human suffering or danger brings forth from every nor- mal heart a response of good will and helpfulness, and' this response re- peated develops the highest qualities of character,. To help is one of the most • funda- mental and noble of human impulses. Every toddler in the home wants to help mother when she scrubs, sweeps or washes, In this the instinct of help- fulness and the instinct of - imitation combine, and the patient and sympath- etic mother who appreciates the im- portance of these early pleas for per- mission to help,, finds in a few years that she Inas a real helper in the home. In focussing attention on the dollar folks sometimes forget that every comfort we enjoy, every necessity or luxury, is ours only thr•iugh the help of others, only through helpful ser- vice, and that we are rightfully entitled to enjoyment only as we contribute our share of service. * * * The pupil who goes to school with the aim of gaining increased power to serve is the pupil who will nrnfit most front school, both in growth of knowledge and of character. Let the first thought be, not where can I have the easiest time, not where can I make the most money with the least work, but where can I. best serve others, with my particular talents or aptitudes, where can I be of most use in the world ? This should be the basic motive in deciding upon an edu- cational course or a vocation. ' HENRY CUDMORE.
