Lord Riddell points out some of the difficulties in his description of the situation. "Italy and France armed to 'the teeth. All Europe in debt to America. America converting herself into "a naval and military state with the ob- ject of protecting her interests. Germany fretting at her 'defenseless position.and bent on revising her Eastern boundaries and readjusting her war debts. § mania at daggers drawn. China in chaos. Overcrowded Japan's popula- tion increasing at the rate of one million per annum. Russia doing her best to stir up world dissension, The South American Statés covertly re- senting U. 8. A, dominion." These are the faets that have to be ced. There is every reason to be- lieve that the League of Nations is accomplishing a great dea! in the way of promoting international amity, yet there is no indication that nations are prepared to turn their swords into ploughshares, ne rs.

G. H. Ferguson, Minister of Education, in regard to adding to the high school curriculum the first two years work of the universities," said Mr. J. G. Elliott, Kingston, a trustee of many years standing. "In reply I can see two plans for the change, the government paying the expense for the two years work in the schools, or the re-imposition of fees in con- ; nection with the training. The Minister Is of the opinion that the weeding out of candidates could be done more cheaply in the institutes and high schools than in the univer- sities and for which the government contributes much money. Students are tried out in the higher training and there is a big slump during the first two years. To find out the ones competent to pursue a university course should be a part of the work ofthe secondary schools. To accomplish this object should not be a tax on the municipalities. The Department of Education should fix the end of the work of the se- condary schools with matriculation. A further pursuance of studies in in- stitutes especially should come under a form of Junior Colleges where the necessary tests for entrance into the third year in the universities shoula be made. The necessary equipment for such work would entail added ex- pense and to meet this the govern- ment should pay the share, or as first class non-pro- fessional certificate shall be the mini- mum requiremént of scholarship for appointment to the teaching staff of Winnipeg schools. This was decided by the Public School Board. The new regulation will become effective for he term beginning September, 1929. It is provided, however, that this shall not be a bar to the appointment of a teacher holding only a certificate of the second class who presents clear evidence of superior teaching ability. Such appointee may be required to raise his or her academic standing to that of first class or its equivalent within a reasonable time after ap- --( 0) tm MANCHESTER On Sunday last the United Churen here "held their annual Free-Will Offering Services which were well at- tended.
