Teachers who hold puwblic or high school teachers‘ certificates with sevâ€" eral years‘ successful teaching experâ€" ience look after the assignments and their correction. "We have the equivalent of a perâ€" manent staff of ten or twelve teachers. If{ the pupils were taught in regular schools they would require a staff of from 80 to 100 teachers. The average yearly jper pupil cost is only oneâ€" seventh of what it is in rural schools or school cars. The correspondence courses provide the cheapest education in the world and the pupil measures well above the average in the schools of the province. Although the enrolâ€" ment includes many persons whose naâ€" tive language is one or other of the many languages spoken in Europe, the language difficulty is easily overcome. Many parents, moreover, study side by side with their children." Mr. McDougâ€" all explained. He produced many letters written by grateful parents and cthers from those who had visited the homes into which the lessons went. One saw pictures of youngsters mushing down to post ofâ€" fices in the middle of winter. One saw seven heads bent in the lamplight around a table eagerly locking through Christmas booksâ€"the only gifts reâ€" ceivedâ€"sent to the children by the deâ€" partment. There was one child in the sgroup who has to lie on his back for a year. And there were seventy patients in cne of the provincial sanitoriums so interested in their lessons that they insisted they should continue throughâ€" out a large part of the summer holiâ€" days. Lessons are forwarded to the latter group, but not returned to the cepartment for correction.

Late Sunâ€" day evening a band of youngsters were playing with fireworks near the store of Carmen Demario, Klock avenue, North Bay. A badlyâ€"aimed sky rocket crashâ€" ed through a small window above the plate glass window in Mr. Demario‘s store. The rocket dropped among the fireworks on display in the window and trouble broke loose. In a minute there were rockets and wheels and firecrackâ€" ers exploding in that window. The plate glass window was shattered and not only the firecrackers in the winâ€" dow but other goods on display in the window and the store were also desâ€" troyed. The fireworks thus destroyed are given an estimated value of $100, while the other loss and damage reâ€" sulting is quoted as reaching an equal figure. For a time it looked as if fire resulting from the discharge of the fireworks in the window would destroy the store itself, but prompt and effecâ€" Uuve action avoided this. A somewhat similar incident was also reported from Toronto with even more serious consequences threatened‘ for a time, when four boys and a man. in the store were actually in danger North Bay had an incident on May 24th that will have a further tendency to take away some of the popularity from fireworks.
