SOMETHING New. -A team of the Six
Nation Indiaas opposed by the Clipper
lacrosse club, will give an exhibition of
skill at this exhiliratiug and intensely
iateresting gatne on the grounds of the
latter club in •Seaforth oa Tuesday next.
Lacrosse is a game to which but little at-
tention has, as yet, beea given in this
section. We are glad, however, that an
eacellent elub, has been organized here,'
and, they will appear in' public for the
fast time itecentest with the Indians on
:the above named day. An admission fee
will be charged to those who witness the
game. The Money thus realized goes to
aid in the ereetion of school buildings
for the Indians. This is certainly a
laudable object, and entirely- aside from
the inteaest attached to the game, should
secure the unanimous countenance of our
citizens. The Indians will also give a
c..:neet tin the town hall in the evening,
and we bespeak for them i good audience.

A 1‘ eriv Idea,.
To the Editor of the Enron Expositor.
Sin. I noticed in your last issue an
item stating that the emit ratepayers
-
were feeling as if they were "pitying too
much for their whistle," in the matter -of
school taxes. Now, Galt is proud of its
educational institutions, and I believe
very justly so, -as I have no doubt they
will compare favorably with those of any
other town .in the Dominion. At the
same time, I am trongly of opinion that
not only Galt, hut our own town and
most of the -towns in Canada might get
equal the educational result for . about
one half of the amount now required.
The plan is very simple, Let the senior
half of the pupils attend school in the
forenoon and.the junior half in the after-
noon. Half the numb* of teachers
would then sufflee, A smaller building
and consequently leas expense for beat
ing, Ste. This system, if properly carried.
out, would reduce the expenditure on ac-
count of town schools, besides being
better for the pupils. There would, no
doubt,be a great and almost neeturnaount-
able amount of prejudice to be overcome
in introducing a system such as 1 have
given an outline of But I -certainly have
no sympathy with those who complain of
high school taxes where they could be
lightened without detziment to any one.
Let them grumble and pay if they will
insist on maintaining the present system.
The short or half_time systeni has been
tried for many yeah; in sorne parts of
13ritain, with very satisfactory results,
Although it was originally 'intended for
a special class, via, boys and girls em-
