Prof. Laird said that this question is one that needs to. be ventilated. He point- ¢d out that the two reasons for troducing school doctors are humani- tarian considerations and the facet that medical supervision follows Jo gically on the state assumption of school control, Children must attend school, so the state is responsible for their physical welfare and protection from injury during school life. This responsibility includes the surround: ings and the influence of sehool life on mental and physical health. The movendent for medicals inspec- tion has had its evohition. All agrec that sehool buildings should be hy gieni¢ and properly fitted. Further, some unfit scholars are exempted from work, eg. wesk-minded, or those with weaak-hearts are kept from gym- nastics, Greater differentation = of normal and abnormal and regard paid to progress and retardation.

All sane spectioni and supervision is an excel lent thing for education. Bat objee tions have hitherto' been raised by municipalities, chiofly because of ex- pense, and fear of having schools condemned. ~ Teachers feared a rival These latter soon everywhere welcome the school doctor as a valuable ally and not as a foe. ! a Germany has been the pioneer in this as in other matters: There the question was discussed as far back as 1867 and the first school doctor was appointed in Germany in 18589, France, Belgium and Hungary introduced doc- tors earlier but Germany can claim credit for the idea. Eigland and Scotland introduced a national svs- tem in 1907 and 1908 respectively, but London and other large towns had previously started on their own ae count. Now there ave over 600 schools doctors in Germany, 84 in London and 54 school nurses, besides numerous others in the rest of Englangd and Scotlaod. Wiesbaden is the pioneer! in this branch of 'educational policy. After an experimental examination, numerous maladies were found of which teachers and patents were unaware, which plained much observed incapacity for school work, aud alse much physical injury on account of school work. The result was that they instituted a medi- I inspection of all children {1} on entrance to school, (2) at regular in- tervals, and (3) on leaving school. The first would determine whether the child is fit or unfit for school, and the lust examination would be useful for giv- nd high grade bonds will have o their estafe. 43 King Street Went, Toronto. Tweeds, Beavéis, Wool Regular prices from with organic disease of the heart should undertake work involving hard or prolonged muscular strain, nor should he study for a profession re- Yyuiring a medical examination. Doc- tors can always give critical and nega- tive advice. After quoting statistics from various towns in Germany, Eagland, Seotlan! and the United. States, Prof. Laird showed the appalling number of chil: dren everywhere who have unsuspected defects. which incapacitate them from work 'and will handicap them in life. Dull boys would be bright if their eyesight did not produce constant headaches through eye strain; if adenoids were removed by » simple op- eration; if when anaemic and underfed they were removed to a conntry open air school. In fact, if they got sym pathetic treatment and had defects re- moved, many so-called mental defici- encies would also disappear. Naturally school doetors would deal with infectious and contagious diseases and all unclean conditions 'of body. The spread of these would be checked and incipient cases detected. Diseases of the sense organs, muzal obstruc tions, adenoids, enlarged glands, skin diseases, functional and nutritional de fects and all other abnormalities such as stammering, abnormal speech, aphasia, spinal curvature, require ex- amination and after examination, they demand treatment. If the parent fails to give treatment, he should 'be com- pelled. But if poverty prevents him, the local aythority should come to the rescue of the child. Teuchers should be trained to detect the commoner and more obvious de fects and to take measurements. This is done in Seotland in the training col! so that, in future; teachers will able to help the doctor and expedite the work, and Lawn Waists, beau- 50 and $15. CE, Store.

When one stops to consider this is making exceptionally good time. It has the record established by Watts broken by two minutes and seconds. Some say that even if Kerr can run the distance in the time stated he could mot do it over this course because of the King street hill. When startihg from the building at the corner of Princess and Barrie streets there is a slight in- clive to the turning point at Fron tenac street. After turning there the runner has a slight decline all the way down Prinress street, all the wav down Barrie to Ming and down King to Collingwood "street. Here a hill is encountered but, after gaining the top, Road race { the road is level to the Bath Road and down to the building. 1 Kerr eai do the five miles in the time sta- ted with good roads he should he able to accomplish the distance here in the same time. He is a husky man and runs at a good pace all the time. Authorities say He can do a great deal better than on Thankegiv- ing Day. He was not in training then and as the race does not come off until the 19th he will have ample time to get in shape, The sporting fraternity are anxiously awaiting to see him smash all records on the day named. Adams, the speedy Y.M.C.A runner, will have to look to his lan- rels else he will have them wrested from him. He says he was not run- ning his hardest on Monday. -------- Suspended for Two Years. G. Bilodeau, the R.C.H.A. runner, says the C.AAU. had no right to him for running against Longboat the time he ran here. Longboat received his first profession- al money for running here. Till he came here he had not received one cent for his services. When Bilodeau was asked to run against him he consented. Longbout was an ama- teur when he entered the ring and was still an amateur when he left the ring as he had not touched one cent of the gate receipts. As soon a8 the race was over Dilodean was fessional and a few days later he re- ceived a card from the secretary of the C.A.A.U. saying that he was sus- pended for a period of two years. He said if he had known that Long- hoat was to receive money for runm- ning he would not have gone against him, . When he entered tor the five mile city championship on Monday he was told that he would have to run ner protest as be had been sus- pend ¢ the union. He cgnsented to run' under those conditions.

Fire and Light Committee Had No Quorum of Members to Discuss the Question--Two Tenders Received for Firemen's Winter Pea Jackets. Ald. Rigney, chairman of the fire and light committee, would have welcomed the attendance of a quorum of his committee, yesterday afternoon, for he wanted to consider the question of street lighting, in view of the fact that the light, heat and power committee is considering the improvement and extension of the are light system. However, there were present only him self and Ald. Robertson, and no busi ness could be transacted. The chair- man remarked, in reading the quarter- ly bill for street lighting from the light, heat and power plant, fhat the light furnished on a good many of the city's thoroughfares was certainly very unsatisfactory. Lights are continually going out, and the outlook for the winter is not very promising. The committee has before it a good num- ber of petitions for additional street lights, and it is advisable that these be considered, so that it may shortly be reported to the light, heat and city will require next year, when the system is improved. Tenders were received for supplying of fourteen pea-jackets for the firemen This is the have been offered winter clothing. Thomas Lambert, of this vity, tendered to supply the coats at $13.75 each, while the Crown Tailoring company, of Toronto, tendered at $1185 each. The local tailoring houses evidently do not cafe to bother competing for sup plying clothing to city departments, as there's mighty little profit. Court of Revision.

Gananoque, Nov. 5.~-The excitement caused about town on Thursday by the serious loss to the town by fire of one of its principal industries, and the element of unceriainty regarding the future, has gradually subsided, and, although the lows is estimated by some as low as 850,000, by others it reach: es, $175,000, possibly by taking the average of the two, a fair approxi mate may be arrived at, The outlook at present is not so bad as it appeared on Thursday, and, although the ap praisers for the adjustment of the losses sustained by the fifteen or twenty insurance companies against whom the company holds policies, sue expected to-morrow, to arpive' at a, fair adjustment, it may not be satis factorily arranged until a later date.
