poets editors and fallibility tne canadian authors associat ion is starting a new magazine to be devoted entirely to canadian poetry those who ean really write poetry wl fills have a chance to have it pab lished and they will also be paid for it instead of bavins to send it to the newspapers whose editors frankly do not know- good poetry when they see it fergus newsrecord commenting upon the last state latent tiiat editors dont know good poetry when they see it the tor onto star says it can prove it one r its editorial writers sent a few hues of verse to the editor of the a little of everything column on the stars own editorial page and in order that tjiere should be no chance of favoritism on account of his idea lity he had the lines typewritten and a strange name signed to them tiiev were never published well joking aside wuy should ed itors always know good poetry any way or what the world might regard rs good poetry or for that matter why should they always know what is good prose often ttiey have shown that they didnt know only recently the 1 tor of the atlantic monthly confess ed he had rejected the manuscript which made hemingway famous london editors or a good many of 1eni rejected things which harris wrote and which turned out to be classics more than that and worse there was an editor oner- and famous who scorned kdgar allan roes ka- van the story is told of bret llarto that in lis heydey be once disguised him self as a patiprr and called on an ed itor with ihe manuscript of one of best stories he had ever written the editor not penetrating the dis guise ganced at the manuscript and pronounced it of no wortti and told llartft to leave when the editor dis covered his mistake he was profuse in his apologies hut from that time forth bret harte never submitted a manuscript or spoke to him again it all illustrates how in the matter of good writing as in other things in life judgments may he terribly arti ficial oven nonsensical most of us are more interested in show than in substance indeed we appear unable to find ihe substance unless the show is visible almost every great writer has been compelled to create an ap petite for himself and until that ap petite is created editors ami publish ers are too apt to be critical the truth is that in literature as in 3110s other spheres in life success usually hangs by a slender thread one thinks of thomas ijchbes one of englands most remarkable philoso phers he was an obscure thinker who had been private secretary to lord bacon in his youth and all the indications were that lie would die poor and virtually unknown bat one day some of the clergy made their appearance at the palace of king charles informed him there was an irreligious writer in the oiling who siould get his just deserts well he king was not a scholar nor much of a reader though he was the wittiest i man who ever sat on the tlrone of i england and as good matured as he was witty bui good natured as he i was in disliked the idea of persecu- ion and especially the persecution i or free speech accordingly ami al- i though he had never heard of thorn- 1 as llobbes he promptly hough all of the philosophers works ordered ihe greatest painter in london in paint his portrait whioh ever after- hang j in ihe kings bedchamber ami ret- lied a big pension on ihe man whom bis own ancestors would have burned i so we

only to kyerson in his ambitions for the best sort of schools ami the best sort of education for the country folk of ontario and he other cana dian provinces there will be many oldtimers in llarriston ami minto township who will remember him as the manager of the cotswold and other neighbor ing cheese factories in the early sos he made ilariiston his headfpiar- ters and was intimate with the mc- killops and coplands at that time lie represented a firm of british cheese importers afterwards he became the first dominion dairy commissioner and in that capacity put canadian cheese on the map he wjts a man of the highest ideals and a very lovely gentleman 1 was very proud to be his disciple knowing the needs of country life as he dirt and sensing the inade quacy of our school system to meet those needs he conceived the idea of establishing a now sort of coun try teachers training school at guelph in association with the agri cultural college where he had been at one time an instructor in the dairy department sir william macdonald the mil lionaire tobacco manufacturer of furnished prof kobertson necessary funds and the ss named the macdonald this experiment in mak- ital al md efc aimed

town and university trend towards professional and whitecol lar jobs which has always character ised our school system by substitut ing handicrafts homeniaking and nature studies for the academic bookishness required by our exact ing examination system my first duty was to take chars of an interproviiicial class of about fifty teachers representing xova scotia xew brunswick prince ed ward island quebec and ontario i do no need to say it was a thrilling experience 1 felt that we were hav ing a hand in breaking down pro vincial prejudices that work ceas ed after three years unfortunately wouldnt it be a great thing for can ada if there could still be some sort of national meeting ground for coun try teachers say at the central experimental farm at ottawa a sccckssklt iaiiukk as most of you know this socall ed macdonald movement for bct- er rural education failed the job has still got to be done perhaps itobertson was ahead of the times conditions were not ripe for a for ward movement and there is no doubt mistakes were made it was made too dependent on consolida tion for one thing but i have never ceased to believe in robertsons ideas anil ideals and some day they will be accepted by ontario country folk so 1 prophesy those of us who had a hand in that macdonald movement thirty years ago heard a great deal of den mark that land of the vikings was held before us as an ideal for cana dian school masters to emulate the wonderful accomplishments in co operation amongst danish farmers were we were told due largely to their system of rural schools the macdonald movement ami den mark were parts of the same idea what denmark had done we could do we foolishly thought in 1014 just at the time of the out break of the great war we had all the ontario school inspectors at guelph for a week to be instructed by dr foght about the danish sys tem but nothing came of it i sup pose the war prevented anything being done and besides educational reforms can not be initiated by school inspectors that was about the last kick of the macdonald movement for rural school advancement i had a little hand in the adventure for ten years from 1905 to lulj they were 1 think the best years of my school masters life though we had fail ed it was worth while i have al ways believed the mistakes we made should serve as warnings for those who attempt the next advance believing that there was no poss ible chance for progressive changes in rural education in ontario under our rigid educational system i re signed from the government ser vice in j15 to follow other educa tional work but i never ceased to dream about denmarking ontarios school a bit so in ltiit nineteen years aftet withdrawing from the service of the department of kduaton 1 went to denmark to try to find out if the devastating depression from which ontario agriculture suffers could not be helped by copying some of the methods that proved successful for the danes in like distress 1 went 1 saw 1 learned i be lieve that the only hope for the per manent and successful reestablish ment of ontario agriculture is by cooperation and ednvation this was robertsons faith in that satr- faith 1 write these articles
