How often we have read of cases wihere the lives of young cl1il- dren have been snuffed out by a child's disease. What a benet a school nurse would be it she could point out these dangers and thus save life. In this regard Mr. Mor- ris quoted a case w.here a tnustee had continually voted against the engwaging or a nurse. His child was poor in ma-then1'at.ics and upon ex- amiiralion to see if she had any physical defects which would ten-d to cause such a condition, it was found that she was blind in one eye. The doctor told him that ilf the child had been brought to him two years before he could have saved the eye, but now all he could do was to aittem-pt to prevent the other eye Lroni t`a1.ling into the sal1nc.st-ate. Had a `school nurse been employed the child womld un- dou-btedly have retained the use of both eyes. So, concluded Mr. Mor- ris, a school nurse was needed to protect children t'1'on1 disease. |4. .. _......A.-__.,. I._1,1 ,_..v.._.,. ......\...,.. ..u... unauuuu. At, a meeting held in Arnprior some time ago a statenient was made as to the relative value of the home, school and church in the teaching of scriptture. The speaker placed them in the above order, but exception was .al:en by a man in the audience. He arranged [then] with the school coming rst, then the home, and nally the church. When one pauses and considers for a moment it is seen that Uhe lat- ter order is julsti-able, for pusptils hear more scripture at school than they do in the average home. The school teacher is better while to lead the children in Bible study than the average parent.

Beatty, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, the Company had disposed of 18,- 194,737 acres of agricultural lands, for which an average price of $7.87 per acre was received. During this period the Company had, by direct effort of its own, secured the settle- ment of over 100,000 farmers in Western Canada. A splendid hunting year with a late open fall is reported from Brit- ish Columbia. A world s record Os- born caribou was killed by D. W. Bell, of Williamsport, Pennsylvania. The length of the head was 65% inches, spread 55 inches and thirty- eight points. A party of three, of whom Bell was one, bagged nearly 100 pieces. A total of 40 round voyages to the port of St. John, New Brunswick, constituting an increase of six over last winter s figures, is announced by the Canadian Pacific in a newly issued schedule of operations for the winter port. The S.S. Montciare will be the first liner to leave St. John after the close of St. Lawrence navigation, sailing for Liverpool on December 7th. Showing a record increase over the figures of last year, grain load- ings in the Western Provinces since the commencement of the crop year, September 1st, aggregate 82,219 cars, representing 136,958,448 bush- els, as against 80,828 cars loaded, or 130,287,194 bushels, from September 1st to October 14th, 1922. That the future nrosperity of the Maritime Provinces, as well as the whole of Canada, depended on .the routing of Canadian trade over Ca- nadian railways and through Cana- dian ports, was the view expressed by Dr. Murray MacLaren, M.P. for St. John, speaking recently in his constituency. Tens of thousands of caribou are trekking southwards through Yukon Territory for the winter. Bands of them have passed through the out- skirts of Dawson City.
