literature and its vile obsession with sex and sensiialitydrwilliam lyon phelps who is referred to as the beloved and wholesome pro fessor of english literature at yale university declared not long ago that never iu history has liter ature been so consistently filthy and rotten as it is todayand this is true not only of the novel and the drama but also of biography mr frank weir of scarboro is spending some time in this section of markham as corn borer inspector enforcing the corn borer act where it is not being observed there have been rumors that the com borer act would not be enforced this year such rumors are unfounded the provincial entomologist in march called a meeting of the corn borer inspectors discussed with them their duties and gave in structions that there should be no slackening up in the enforcement of the act he said the borer was just as dangerous as ever and the only safeguard against serious loss to the corn lay in a thorough clean up every year each farmer doing his share it was pointed out that the weather was a very important factor in determining whether we could get a reduction in the number of borers in any particular year some years the weather would favor the insect so much that all a good cleanup could do would be to prevent a very large increase other years the weather would help us and there would be a decrease farmers and also corn growers in cities and town are urged to co- operate by having all corn rem nants destroyed not later than may 20th first allmetal house new york the first house of all- metal construction in america

extent and the great civil service of the country continued on in the ordinary way its activities curtailed somewhat but salaries and positions were unaffected this year however the situation is serious the national revenue is down 100000000 and expendi tures have increasea two ways lay open to the government to make both ends meet by rigid economy and by increased taxation the main estimates tabled last week indicate the economies and the budget which will soon ho down will break the news as to- the in creased taxation e no government on earth could avoid the present depression and both economy and taxation increas es were inevitable in parliament however government and opposi tion forces will fight the issue out the main estimates are about 3s000000 under last year which means at least 02000000 addit ional revenue must be found en tirely apart from the additional ex penditures such as the s20000000 for unemployment and other em ergency and special expenses how ever most of the savings in the estimates are largely at the expense of the people employed in public services for once the civil service suffers severly in the interior department alone about 450 positions have abolished due largely to the transfer of the natural resources to the western provinces about 04s000 less will be paid in salaries than heretofore efforts have boon made to absorb the civil services new unemploy ed into other departments but curiously this has been opposed by the civil servants in some of those departments who fear the absorp tion may interfere witli their pro motion a selfish viewpoint but a human one the main estimates are made up from data supplied by the various departments of the government who estimate their financial require ments for the year ending march si 1932 all deputy ministers were instructed to exercise rigid economy and have had to cut the coat accordingly to the croth the total of the estimates this year is 3s649440s as compared with 5423722103 last year the income account of public works has been cut by 10515210 this amount is the sum voted for the repair of the public buildings scattered throughout canada it is also noted that there is a reduction in the vote for the welland canal of 6000000 and there is no pro vision made for old age pensions or technical education undoubted ly these two amounts will require 10000000 or twelve million more the chief increase is in interest on the public debt the country having to pay 1031590 more than last year this year provision has to be paid to pay off or refund 25000000 of the 1910 public service loan and 52931000 of the war loan the most drastic cut is made in the vote for the r mail routes canadas vast distances make the air mail and passenger service of great importance and had these routes been allowed to develop logically it would have brought eastern and western canada a day to three days journey nearer it would have been possible by next year for an ontario resident to visit his son in alberta spent several days and get back home by the following weekend the vote however has been cut from 900- 700 to 100000 been snuffed before they were lit parliament opened after the easter recess in light and shade the commons found itself in a humorous vein but there was mourning iu the senate in th green chamber chubby power mp quebec south quizzed the solicitor general to the chuckling of the house but in the red cham ber tributes were paid to the pass- iug of senator p e lessard cl edmonton who died recently the solicitor general hon maurice dupre quebec west was to have delivered a speech on the tuesday before the recess advance copies were sent to several con servative newspapers iu quebec on tuesday however the prime miis- ter was busy with estimates and mr dupre could not get the floor he forgot to notify the newspapers who had his speech aud they published it the joke came n when they were found to have add ed very eulogistic ouiiums as to the reception of the speech and to have interlarded it with applause loud applause etc major power in mock seriousness demand ed the privileges of the house bo upheld this was a false report of the proceedings and he resurrected a law of 1090 to emphasize his point hon w ii motherwell ex- minister of agriculture spoke on the present condition of the in dustry and asserted that in as much as the government had fixed wheat prices when they went high they should not demure from pegg ing the price when they got too low he saw also in the rejection of the russian offer and the embargo on russian goods a possibility of russia flooding european markets next fall just as the canadian crop was being marketed with dis astrous results to the canadian farmer such a reprisal might well be expected of russia the house and senate carried oi business in a rather perfunctory manner on tuesday this being miss mildred bennetts wedding day the prime minister and the leader of the opposition

been established the government turns off these lights and leaves the airways dark just as though all the lighthouses were closed on the st lawrence as all the western cities and many of those in the east have made heavy expenditures on equipping their airports the shutting off of the beacon and flood lights and other government services is a serious matter further than that it makes night flying

what a position she is in when entering upon a new months work if one or more of the class have missed some or all of the previous months work another factor to consider is the pupils mental ability some child ren are 100 per cent efficient some do not rank that high if one by test comes below 75 per cent ho is termed a nonacademic child in towns and cities special classes are provided for such in these classes they are treated according to their peculiar ability and often they prove 100 per cent in their particular individuality these may be called manuallyminded pupils if one by test comes below 50 per cent he is termed subnormal and for such there are special institu tions as the one iu orillia a third factor that influences the progress of a pupil is health a child is not at his best if he feels mopish and nauseous it is becom ing more and more advocated that the plainer and coarser foods are necessary for good health some children do not get sufficient rest many parents are negligent in this regard allowing the children to re main up until they themselves re- tiro parents often pass judgment up on the teacher they judge of course from their own view points the criticisms are usually given without much consideration of the above factors they think the teacher should get them along in spite of everything pedagogue custom hatching let us hatch your egg in the way nearest
