FRIDAY, JULY 15, 1927 GRAND LODGE K This week the Masons of Ontario are turing thoughts towards Guelph where, on July = elsewhere in Canada, $500 a year; United : S h and 20th, there is to be held the annual mmunication of the Grand Lodge of Canada 1 the Province of Ontario. One of the features especial interest will be the annual address the Grand Master, John A, Rowland, who % down his gavel next week at the conclusion his two-year term and is to be succeeded in 4 high office by the Honourable John 8S. Mar- fin, Minister of Agriculture for Ontario, - je are, it is said, more than one hundred hd twenty-five thousand members of Masonic ®dges in Ontario. Masonry is a wonderful aternal and benevolent organization and is Id in the highest respect in Canada. Perhaps is safe to say that, to the average man, it represents the highest form of fraternalism, asonry is not concerned with sectarian, poli- i or racial divisions or prejudices but is tended as a medium through which loyal and od-fearing men may do good to their fellow- 5 The fantastic stories told and believed ars ago about Masonry have gone into the scard long since; probably Masons got as uch fun out of them as the Scotch invariably ot out of stories regarding members of their tionality. The Times hopes that the representatives of Gsbawa Masons who attend Grand Lodge in Guleph next week will derive profit, pleasure and inspiration from the sessions thereof, 5 HESITANT DRIVER A MENACE "Well, make up your mind," growled one driver at the driver ahead, who had signalled that he was going to turn to the left, had hesi- tated, and then had gone straight on. "I see that sort of thing every day," said the driver who had been held up momentarily to his friend to whom he had given a "lift" that morning, "The hesitant driver is as great a menace to safety as the reckless driver. One cannot gauge him, one never knows what he is going to do." True of driving, true of life in general. The fellow who cannot make up his mind throws all our plans awry. He will give us a decision by such and such a day. We build upon that expectation and when the day arrives he is still undecided. When he finally does decide the chances are that the scales of his judgment have been inclined one way or the other through the consideration of a minor point and not be- cause of a clear analysis of the situation. The only way | with the hesitant driver your man and, if he falls into this class, make due allowances. To depend on him in matters of fimportance is to build on shifting sands. 7' : hi THE SUPPLY OF TEACHERS . According to reports, it appears that almost every school board which advertised for a tea- cher this summer received over two hundred applications for one position and some received over three hundred. Teachers are very plenti- f y enty-five years ago there was an over- supply of teachers. Not so many were required inti those days and the model schools in every ty, with their four-months' term, were turning them out in hundreds. At that time were three normal schools and scores of schools. Towns as close together as , Goderich, and Wingham had each a gdel school with somewhere about forty teach- ers in training in each of them. These teach- en received county certificates which were good for three years and then those who persisted in 'teaching went to normal school for four months at Toronto, Ottawa, or London and ob- permanent provincial certificates. Most . those teachers did good work in their class- , but salaries were low in those days. Fi three hundred dollars, payable in one sum ithe end of June, a young man's contract ould require him "to teach the school, sweep floors, and build fires" for ten and a half méhths--schools opened then about the middle of August. . 1905 or 190¢ Sir James Whitney abolished | a a ~-- - the model schools, except six or seven which were to supply the needs of remote districts, and built additional normal schools at Hamilton, Peterboro, Stratford, and North Bay. The training course was also extended to nine months. Soon the supply of teachers decreas- ed, not so much because of the change in train- ing' conditions, but because of the coming of prosperity to the Province. Other callings were more lucrative than teaching. By about 1914 teachers were scarce, especially public school teachers, and salaries increased rapidly. Then a regulation was introduced that those trained in Ontario must teach for at least one year in this Province: they had got into the habit of going to Western Canada to teach. Even yet teachers-in-training at North Bay Normal School are paid one dollar per day throughout the session under agreement to teach for three years in Northern Ontario. When the depression came soon after the war, the number of teachers increased rapidly. Business and industrial positions were few and uncertain; teaching was remunerative and se- cure, It seems to -be an invariable rule that in times of commercial depression teachers are plentiful and in prosperity they are scarce, Now a proposed change is announced. Pros- pective teachers, it is said, are to attend normal school for one year, On successful completion of this term, they will receive certificates valid for four years. After that they must return to normal school for one year in order to se- cure a permanent certificate, This new ar- rangement, along with returning prosperity, will make teachers scarce once more, . To the credit of trustees and teachers be it said, salaries have not decreased in these few years of an over-supply of teachers. Salaries could not very well be lowered because the value of the dollar has not noticeably increased --and teachers must live. But a great many qualified teachers will not secure positions this year, i All these conditions right themselves. We know of an ice-man in a certain city who makes about $600 a year more than is paid to an ex- perienced, male public school teacher in the same city. In time the teacher will take to delivering ice--at least so he says. Economic conditions right themselves, if given time; people naturally take up the sort of work that produces the most money and then the aban- doned occupations must pay more, In a few years, teachers will be scarce again but, in the meantime, what is to happen to those left stranded during the past few years? They must either secure higher qualifications for teaching or seek other fields of activity. Econ- omie laws may be cruel in individual cases but they work eventually for the good of all. I AM HAPPINESS I am that for which you are looking. I am the goal of religion. I am the objective of philosophy and science. I am the dream of the wretched. I am the quest of the world, the great hungen of humanity. My dominion over men is world-wide. As children they romp toward me. As old men and women they totter after me. I am an in- satiable thirst. Because of me mankind carries on business and commerce. Because of me the scientist labours long in his laboratory. Because of me untold millions of dollars are spent for the pur- pose of education. For men know that know- ledge, health, and business are paths to my domain. The right to the pursuit of me has been written in the hearts of men and sealed with their blood. Civilization is my reward, and man's home is my chief dwelling place. For all that I am a bright dream and a beau- tiful purpose, the children of men still stumble and fall and bruise themselves in my quest. They still confuse me with pleasure and with riches and with power. Yet I am as I always have been. I am the same yesterday, today and forever. The children know me and possess me, and the child- like at heart never lost their hold on me. I am happiness. Bit of Verse JULY This is the month the poets all forget Though open-hearted Summer is astray Upon the hills, a child at holiday,-- Though cottage gardens are with jewels set, With jewelled flowers as beautiful as May,-- This is the month the poets all forget For merry-makers have no time to say How fair July shall be to music set; And town and cottage dwellers rest in play, While open-hearted Summer is astray. Our many-voiced June is gone and yet The time of green fulfilment is to-day, This month that keeps us deep in Beauty's debt-- July, the month the poets all forget! --Marion Steward | Canada have increased from 114 'WHAT OTHERS SAY A WARM CANDIDATE (Hamilton Herald) Indiana has a presidential candi- date whose name is Woollen; but! he cannot hope to make much head- i way in the south, where cotton is king, THE FUTURE FILLING STATION (Border Cities Star) "Fifty Miles to Gallon with Fut- ure, Auto."

The action of the heart, the movement of the floor of the chest, up and down, the position of the barium meal in the intestine, condition of gall bladder, stones nn kidney, broken bones and so forth, are all revealed hy the X-ray, And wow Dr, JF, ago, was butter; sweet cool earth- anware crocks of it,or delicious gold en pound. prints. Nowadays many farm housewives who formerly made butter purchase even what is used for their own table. THE HIGHWAY "SNAIL" (From the Hamilton Spectator) The speed limit on the highways has been stepped up to 35 miles an hour, although some drivers, appar- ently, are quite unaware of the change. Speed, it is found, in the congested condition of traffic today, is a measure of safety as well as : convenience, Now that we have this higher maximum speed limit, the question arises whether there should not also be a minumum speed limit, below which it would he a legal offense to travel. The motor- ist dawdling along at about fifteen miles an hour is a constant menace to himself and others on the mod- ern highway. It is not to be sup- posed that people anxious to get to their destination by a certain time will submit to trailing along in the rear of a creeping car, which refuses to accelerate its pace or to clear the path for following ve- hicles. If these slow drivers are to be permitted to clutter up the highways, they should be made to understand that they must not in- terfere with the rights of others. Much is heard of excessive speed, and it is certainly a grave menace; but there is an even greater danger from the driver who blocks the road with his slow-moving car and forces others to incur serious risks in avoiding him. In the United States they have an effective way of dealing with the problem. The crawler is regarded as just as big an offender as the speeder; and treated accordingly. Legislation of a similar character is badly need- ed in his province, if the toll of accidents is to be kept down.
