Etllt The Windsor Star has been giving thought to the matter of cutting down the cost government in Can- ada and has worked out a plan which is simple, on paper, and would` save a great deal of money. Counting noses, the Star finds the nine provincial legislatures have a total of 550 members, all of them`. paid; nine legislative buildings, nine sets of officials, nine lieutenant-I governor.< with nine gold-braidedi staffs. In addition there are 245i members in `the house of commons,p 96 in the senate. [`lan Qfqv urnnlrl {glen rlra, ctpns . Iecreu anu cmclency enuuncuu. It is obvious, of course, and ever} one will agree, that much money could be saved by action along those lines without injury to the national intcrcsits. But the practical difficul- ties are all but insuperablc, and only' a Mussolini could accomplish econ- omics in the Canadian political system so ruthless and sweeping. The town council and the board of education disagree on the question of disposing` of the old B.C.1. site on Blake St. We would say that it is ad- visable to either clean up the pro- penty, making it more pleasing to look upon, or dispose of it to some [one who will. 791.98 for unemployment relief work is sanctioned by the town council. If the money is wisely spent `there can be no serious objec- tions, but three dollars worth of constructive work should be given by each man every day he works. It is better to give direct relief than to have men trying to work when wea- ther or conditions are unfavorable. I Expenditures amounting to $42.-I Right must prevail, and Britain will yet surmount her present dim- , culties. To uphold British honor, ! England, following the great war, re- sumed business on the gold basis and did not mark down the price of the pound, but decided to pay dollar for dollar.

It proposes merging of the three prairie provinces into one proviril-e,3 wiih one government; a .'~:imilar un-' ion of the three Martime units; each' of them to have a legislature of fty` members. It would permit Ontario and Quebec to continue with their} present. boundaries, the legislature of each cut to fifty. British Columbia, because of its location, also would stand unchanged, but with its house reduced to twenty. Thus the nine. provinces would be cut to ve, thef 550 legislators reduced to 220. Mpmhmzzhin in the house of com-; IUOU legislators reuuccu IU zau. ` Membership in the house of com-' mons would be cut to 100 in this. scheme, and presumably the senate in proportion. Reductions in county and city councils, governing bodie` of all sorts, also are proposed, on the theory that economics would be ef- fected and cfciency enhanced. 1+ in nl-minnz nf r-nurse-_ and even.

The recent pay cut mutiny in the British Navy also was one of the various of the cumulative effecf. which is the decision to abandon the gold standard. Also, England put a terric strain on herself six years ago by returning to the gold stami- ard as part of her post-war nancial policy, and by her Whole attitude - toward the payment. of her war debts. Of all countries on that side of the Atlantic which participated in the war, England is the only one which has not devaluated its currency. Great Britain alone returned to the pre-wzu gold parity of its currency, while France divided the franc by five. Plus all this international strain, England has been attempting to carry on at the same `time a most expensive system in socialism, which, with its enormous cost of unemployment in- surance, caused the downfall of the Labor G0`.'('l`IlIn< :nt just a month ago. lini "in. 4 "'.1'.' n1" lixn hi-,.-r.nt z~:-i_~1_- 1'HEl \A\Ib 1 in. war} :".1:~: of the pru.-.~em crisis the il:`~pi'~:(`.'(ilfll';C('i full in pric... which has (iIi\`t':I] most coLu1l'.'ie.< on the gold standard and left them in `a position in which a default upon their cont1'a.ct.ual obligations in gold is unavodablc.

It only recently that much timc=. has been devoted to :1 study of learn- ing processes. But here and there schools are taking advantage of this knowledge to the great advantage `both of teachers and pupils. We probably have yet much more to learn about education than we know `now. And this further knowledge 'will come when the public demands. a change and is prepared to pay the SCHOOLS RESPONSIBLE-1 i MANY FAILURES 1 UI.HL`1' (llI'eCLlUXlS. It is only comparatively recently} that modern science has turned its? attention to this subject. In the past the school has been accepted as a matter of course. Every child was -supposed to go to school on reaching a certain age. He must learn to read and write and do gures; he must know something about geo- graphy and history. If he learned enough of these in a year to pass into the next grade, all was supposed to be well. Education was treated mnrn nr lace 9: a etunrluv-Airrnrl VA- I; All will agree that the school is rone of our most important institu- Itions. But we do not alway.s treat lit as though it were.

But if the `public were more fully aware of the important part which schools play in =the lives of people and in the atfairs ,of the nation such a condition would surely be changed. Most people ap- schooling as a means of making a ' living`, but very few realize the very vital part which the school plays inl shaping or marring people s lives In; other directions.

Mental hygiene research, however, is placing a good many of the iUs from which people suffer in later life upon the doorstep of the school. There seems to be good reason to be- lieve that many who have failed in life might have done better if the . schools had realized that persons dif- fer in temperament and emotional attitude, as well as in intelligence, and that they require a certain amount of individual attention.

U What is generally termed the holi-lvs day season is over and people whciv have been priviliged to spend their i: vacation amid the haunts of nature, t or travelled to other lands and visit- ed new and strange scenes, are home t again. In most cases it is presumed 0 that they have returned 1: stored in physical t and better able to z problems of life. I tion has been of restorative value de- ` pends on how it was spent. Thercll are many who have not the faintest'( conception of how to holiday. They i do no -t know how to regain that 1 physical and mental buoyancy they 1 need. They must be constantly on . the go, rushing here and there, seek- 4 ing sources of fresh gaiety every ; night to thrill their already jaded-` nerves and dissipated lives. Such ` people do not return from a vacation restored. It is only by getting in close touch with nature that we may hope to get any benet from a holi- day.. A quiet day or a peacefui night beside a rippling brook or in a forest glade will do more than any- thing for us. If your holiday has not done for you what you expect ed perhaps it was your own fault.
