We have long` been of the opinion that the people of -this province do not receive the benet they mig'hit from public school inspectors. Why the big city newspapers, including the Sunday papens, do not invite contributions 1'-rorm them must be be? cause their editors do not appreciate the value of their opinions on the varied educatlonnaxl probems. No class of men should be in a better position to speak on rural school matters than the inspectors and ex- perienced teacthena of public schools. But only an occasional inspector ventures to express his views in the public print. True, a few papers devote a column, more or less, on Saturdays, to education, butt very setldom indeed are the contents on any live issue or of real practical value to any one. Cirty editors do not seem to be seized with the fact that the ediuoation of the youth of our counitry is the most important unidentakin-g to wihich attention of the best mindis can be directed, and yet it receives very meagre concern appziren-tly.---Canatliian Statesman.

T-he-re is no doubt in my mind but what this `price-conitr-oil system would compel a number of United States n1>anufac'ture1`~s to establislil pliants in ,-this country in order to be on a basis of equality with their Canadian com.petti oors, and, in addi- tion, it would spell the death knell of combines, Mr. Patterson pointed out. All Canadian .faatom'evs would increase their capacity by putting in new machinery, which, in the end, would mean enlargemenits of their plants and -increases in staffs. Small towns wherre faubonies are would grow and the population of Canada would increase very rapidly, while the cost of living would steadily come down.

This principle would control prices or keep them at the presenvt standard until such times as the factories were 1)ro in sufcient quan- tities to increase their profits, .when a reduction would be made in hhe price to the consumer, he added.
