Nothing else we have put funds into here brings so many outsiders into the town.

FERGUSON ~\ â€"ARDENT FOR THE EMPIRE nadians, you have the best rea honouring Empire Day, secing t nada is one of the free nation Empire and owes much of h abroad to her close connectionâ€" Motherland and to the belief who make their homes in this ion are sure to enjoy the bles Britisch rule. In the vears to c Above all there should be wide pubâ€" licity for the "Greetings from the Minâ€" ister of Education to the Pupils in Schools." This message reads in part as follows:â€""I hope you will fix in your minds toâ€"day and remember as long as you live some of the many great things for which the British Empire stands As we are all members of our Empirc and share in the benefits it gives us, we should try to keep before us its chief chiects as well as the causes that make ‘"‘The Minister of Education confiâ€" dently expects that every school in the province will fittingly celebrate Empire Day. In order to do this, it is necesâ€" sary that the principals and assistant teachers arrange a programme of lesâ€" sons, songs, recitations, addresses, »osâ€" says, drills, etc., that will be of a patriâ€" otic nature. No doubt teachers will consider it both a privilege and a Auty to make the best use of the occasion to awaken in the minds of the children in the schools a greater appreciation of the nation whose destiny will soon hbe in their hands, and of the Empire of which it forms a part., It is vital in these changing times that the minds and hearts of the children and the young manhood and womanhood of our population be instilled with adequate conceptions of the Empire in the widâ€" est possible way. Those who love the British Empire see«it as the greatest of all forces for rightsousness and fair play among the nations of the world, while those who hate it see it as a mighty rock barring their way to world revolution." Then again there is the messags of the Premier to the teachers! This mesâ€" sage reads in part as follows:â€" Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star, entertained a number of their friends at bridge in their chapter room. There was a good crowd and a very pleasant evening was enjoyed. Those winning the prizes were ladies,, first, Mtss M. Lynch; second, Mrs. Q. Orr; consolaâ€" tion, Mrs. Kavanagh; gentlemen, first, Mr. W. H. Johns; second, Mr. F. Ts â€" forest; consolation, Mr. W. Cliff. Miss Alma Laforest arrived home Tuesday from Toronto University, where she was a secondâ€"vear student. In all the schcols of Ontario Empire Day, May 23rd, is observed as a special day for emphasizing to the pupils what it means, not <only to the present but to the future. With his usual faculty for leadership Premier G. Hoâ€" ward Ferguson, as Minister of Educaâ€" tion has issued a booklet, "Empire Day in the Schools of Ontario," the purâ€" pose of the brochure being to suggest and provide accessible sources of inâ€" formation for the teachers and pupnils on the true meaning of the British Emâ€" pire. This year‘s booklet is a particuâ€" larly valuable and interesting one. I+ is attractive, containing wellâ€"printed halfâ€"tone pictures of King George V.; His Excellency Viscount Willingdon, Governorâ€"General of Canada; His Honour W. D. Ross, Lieutentantâ€"Govâ€" ernor of Ontario; Honâ€"»G. Howard Forâ€" gusen, B.A., LL.D., Prime Minister and Minister of Education of Ontario; Mrs. J. A. Stewart, Perth Ontario, Natioral President Imperial Order Daughters of the Empire; coloured pictures of the Unicn Jack, showing its component parts; Hon. and Rev. Canon Cody, forâ€" merly Minister of Education. It is inâ€" formative, presenting many facts about the Empire. It is interesting, passing on as its does many eloquent articles and many inspiring poems on patriotic subjects. There is a temptation to quote from practically every article in the booklet. For instance, there is the paragraph in the essay by Mrs. J. A. Stewart in reference to the Daughters of the Empire:â€""At the time of the South African war, the women who beâ€" lieved and hoped that Canada‘s future, as her past, would be richest and finest for her and the world, within this great Empire, met together, to work for the Canadian soldiers in that war, and pledge themselves to the ideal of "One Flag, One Throne, One Empire." They called themselves the Imperial Order, Daughters of the Empire. Toâ€"day there are thousands upon thousands in this Order, and they still work for this same ideal. The members of the Order give greeting to you on Empire Day, Young Canada, and ask you to pledge yourâ€" selves to work, like them, towards "One Flag,â€"the Union Jack; One Throre, the throne of the British King; ar.d One Empire,â€"the British Empire."
