fence enclosing the Burying l3 Thothrues a the London Times For the last two years Theodore an American gentleman who well known is Egypt has been excavating steadily and systematically in the Valicy of trie Tombs of King at Thebes clearing the away inch by inch and so layiag the bed rock He has been rewarded this spring by the discovery of a viously unknown royal tomb mummy of in ihe Cairo museum having been found in the tomb of Amenhotep to which it had been conveyed by Egyptian priests for tte purpose of conceal ment probably in the age of the dynasty but sepulchre of the had never been discovered though it was pretty certain thhl it was hidden somewhere under the in the Valley of the Tombs of the Kings TOMB IN MOUNTAIN The actual discovery was made by Howard Carter inspector of the monuments of Upper Egypt who been conducting tbe excavations for Mr and it is to care and practiced that we owe only the preservation of all ihe found in the tornn but also a scien tific record the conditions under which they were discovered The tomb itself like the tombs in the same valley consists of a cut the heart of the mountain After sloping downward for a considerable distance it is in terrupted by a deep square on one of the walls of which is a Land of paintings- On the further the well the passage turns hack upon itself end Anally opens a large chamber at the extreme end of which is a magnificent sarcophagus covered with texts from the Book of Dead MUMMY On either side are snuiler cham bers the floor of one of which was covered with mummified loins of beef legs of mutton and trussed due s and geese offerings made to the dead king between and years ago Clay seals with he name of the king had been attached to the doors of the chambers and it is interesting to observe thai the Egyptians the eighteenth had already to some extent anticipat ed the invention of the rais ed portions of the seals having with blue ink belli impressed upon the clay The walls of a chamber which serv ed as a vestibule to that in which the sarcophagus was laid are adorned with a few paintings and on one of them is a hieratic insciipUoii dated in the eighth year and stating that the tornh had been plun dered by robbers but restored as far as possible by that Pharaoh STOLEN It was doubtless thai time that jewellry and other precious ob jects buried with the King were More than enough was left how ever to satisfy the today The floor wis literally cov ered with vases disiies boomerang symbols of life and other blue faience neatly all of them have wantonly brok en in some cases inis have been done by the original dexe crators of tho tomb as the breakage has been repaired In lius Intermixed with the faience were fragments of cups and vases of rich blue or glass There are also frag

PHARAOHS CHARIOT The great and unique find however has been that of the aerial in which he rode at Thebes body it is alone preserved hut III a perfect condition The wooden frame was first covered with papier mathe made from papyrus ana this again with stucco which has been carved both inside and out into scenes from the battles fought by the Pharaoh in Syria The art is of a very high every detill Icing exquisitely finished arid the fates of the Syrians being clearly portraits taken from the captives of Thebes The in fact one the fin est specimens of art that have come down to us from antiquity and that it should have been mad Tor the grandfather the heretic king whose foreign correspondence thrown such a light on the history of Editor of the Era Dear Id your last issue your correspondent made cer tain insinuations regarding the trance Examination which as a mem ber of the Entrance Board I resent He asserts that the majority the country pupils failed while nearly all the town pupils passed He then speaks of partiality and asks for tioe If he knows of any candidate who he feels did not get justice he may appeal against the decision of the Board It your correspondent will come to me or to Inspector Davidson I have no doubt we can satisfy him in a very few minutes that the deserving candidates passed and the undeserv ing ones failed The regulations see Reg and for are very definite on the point Unless a pupil makes onehalf of the total or very nearly that ho cannot pass Regarding pupils who ate prevented by sickness from writing there is al so a provision made Because one such candidate sought admission this year and was regularly admitted by the Education Department your cor respondent fancies he sees par tiality was shown Probably the correspon dent canncft see a good reason why a larger percentage of pupils should pass from Newmarket and Aurora schools than from the other schools in North York I can tell him why In the first place the Principal of each of town schools devotes his time almost exclusively to his Entrance Class His assistants at tend to the classes In the case of and schools simil arly situated the principal has under his immediate care probably the junior and senior third and the jun ior and senior fourth and sometimes a fifth class as well It does not re quire any calculation to see which class should be better prepared for their examination In the second place country pupils go through snow and mud a long distance to use the words of your correspondent For this reason and others their at tendance at school is not as regular as in the case of town pupils who are not at such a disadvantage correspondent asks who ex amined the Literature papers Mr examined most them I examined the rest Was the work not done to suit the fastidious taste of your correspondent Or he think that Mr and Mr Thompson of Aurora should not have been- on that Board because they have candidates writing Regarding their appointment I have nothing to say except that they are appointed according to law by Public School Boards and are just as compe tent as any of the eight members who compose the Entrance Board Neither them where his own pupils are writing and neither one has access In any way to an swer papers of his pupils your correspondent would like to find anything more about the work ol the Entrance Board Examiners he may do so without getting anyone to look behind the Kent for him he suggests There are no INTRODUCTION With the end Samuels farewell address began the of Saul Most of twenty years must be count ed as the interval of history between the last lesson and this years full trials which came to Saul as king in a lime when enemies were upon every hand and full of temptations which finally caused his ruin At last Saul committed one overt act of disobedience to God and Samuel in his extreme old age was sent forth to meet him as he came from to There occurred the scene which- lesson records PRACTICAL It is an awful thing to try to cover up our greed and meanness under cloak of religion Alt who believe in God at all believe that he is the Lord of Na ture and natures laws But are laws of nature any less harsh than the laws of God as revealed in the bible Nature no less Oban revelation teaches us most clearly that the sins of the fathers are visited upon the children to the third and fourth gen eration Whoever does not sacrifice at all for the sase of and his fellow men has not reached a high state of per fection There are two sides in the destiny ol every life Gods will and mans will the
