=~ OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 1928 ---- AH INTROS i R NEW SCHOOL BILL "Abolition of District Catho- lic Commission is Planned TWO BODIES Central Office in Montreal for Directors and Staffs Quebee, Mar. 7.---Abolition of "the four district Catholic School Commissions in Montreal, and their 'replacement by a corporation com- posed of an administrative com- "mission of 18 members and a peda- gogic commission of 13, is pro- vided for in a bill in the name of Hon. L. A, David, Provineial Sec- retary, covering changes In the ad- ministration of Montreal's Catho- lic schools, following broadly the lines of the commission which re- cently conducted a survey of the situation under the chairmanship of Sir Lomer Gouin. Both the above bodies will work together, and will have a central office in Montreal, where the di- rector, director of studies, direc- tor of works and secretary treas- urer will have permanent quarters with their respective staffs. The administrative commission will have 18 members, six being priests and 12 laymen, five mem- bers will be named hy the Lieu- tenant-Gavernor-in-Council, five hy the Archbishop of Montreal, and tive by the executive committee of the City of Montreal, the three remaining members will be named by the commission of studies of the University of Montreal, one of whom must be a priest. In the remaining cases each of the five members named by other authori- ties must reside in one of the dif- lerent sehool districts, and one member must be English-speaks ing in each group. The English- speaking menrber, is, however, un- affected by the regulations as to districts, The quorum of the com- mission will be seven, The . pedagogic commission will conalst: of 13 members, being six members of the administrative commission, the head of the tech- nical schools, the lady director of the pedagogic institute of Mont real, the director of the Jacques Cartier Normal School, the diree- tor of the School of Higher Com- mercial Studies, the director of Ecole des Beaux Arts, and two English-speaking members. Quor- um will be five, The members of the adminis- trative commission will be named for five years, and will receive $15 for each regular and special meet- ing they attend, or for any com- mittee meeting at which they are present. They are barred from entering into contracts where schools are concerned. The administrative commission will work through three commit- tees, on schools, works and fin- ance, each committee having one English-speaking member on ft, and will be charged with a com- plete redrafting of the present system. The pedagogic commission will likewise have to undertake an entirely new system for the schools in matters educational, and will work through two 'com- mittees, one on nrimary and one on medium schools. The director general, to be ap- pointed, is the head of the organl- zation, and will have wide powers. In financial affairs he will have the same latitude as the city comptroller, In differences of opinion be- tween the administrative and peda- gogic commission, the superin- tendent of 'public instruction of the province may be appealed to, and his ruling will be final, The seventh and eighth year classes are to be merged within the primary school, and the ninth, tenth and _ eleventh year classes are to be turned into medium schools, and it is laid down that the pedagogic commission must draw up a uniform program for such newly created schools, and to that end there must be co-opera- tion with the ecouneil of public instruction. This pedagogic com- mission is held to secure and furn- ish statistics in all essential mat- ters relating to edueation in the schools. The bill provides against the principle of mixed schools, since it is provided that schools exclusive- ly for boys and schdols exclusively for girls shall be provided.

The Houses of Clergy and Laity expect the House of Bishops to create safeguards against extra- liturgical services, whereon fears are held by both the high church- men and Evangelicals. The House of Clergy, on the mo- tion of Bishop Middleton, of Man- chester, sent up a request that the bishops introduce in the rubrics of the alternative Order of Commun- ion for the Sick "the words to the effect that the consecrated ele- ments shall be so reserved as to he regarded by those present at public worship as outside the area of ceremonial observance." Another resolution requests a statement to the effect 'that there is intended thereby no use of the Holy Sacrament other than that which Our Saviour Himself com- manded, namely, that by faith re- ceiving the same in thankful re- membrance of Him we should he fed with the spiritual food of His most precious body and blood." « Other questions before the bish- ops are a decision regarding appeal to the archbishops with reference to licenses for reservation; the place of location of the aumbry; protection for those desiring to use the old Book of Common Prayer, and the question of the introduction of the new hook in parishes. Monday's session was held in private. Strict Secrecy London, Mar. 7.---In strict seec- recy the House of Bishops for 2 days will deliberate on the Book of Common Prayer, of the Church of England as the hook was re- cently amended by the Houses of Clergy and Laity. After Their Lordship"s serutiny, and after again being presented to a convo- cation of the ecclesiastical prov- inces of Canterbury and York, the hook will return finally to the chureh assembly which will be able to render only a plain "yea" or "nay" to the book as it then stands. It is deemed unlikely that the Prayer Book :merge fr Is week's final episcopal revision greatly altered from the style in which the clergy left it, although at least four bishops are opposed to it, but on varying grounds. The hook, as it now stands, al- lows reservation of the sacra- ment only for the sick under a bishop's license, with the elements consecrated at an open commun- fon service. The bishops, how- ever, may perhaps introduce some new stipulations with reference to the actual place in the church and the general conditions under which the reserved elements shall be kept. TINY TOWNSHIP CASE RESUMED Argument Presented In Be- half of Province of Ontario London, Mar. 7.--The argument in the Tiny Township separate school trustees' appeal which was adjourned last Friday when I. F. Hellmuth, K.C., Toronto, counsel for the appellants, had concluded bis statement of the case before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, was resumed Mon- day afternoon with W. N. Tilley, K.C,, Toronto, presenting his ar- gument in behalf of the respond- ent, the Province of Ontario. Mr. Tilley stated that the appeal contained two distinct branches, namely, the systemr of apportion- ing the government grants and al- so the question of the courses of study in the separate schools. In the first branch consideration of how the provincial grants were ap- portioned prior to Confederation was involved, Mr. Tilley said, and 'whether anything had been done since to contravene the legislation then existing. He examined in de- tail figures quoted by Mr. Hell- muth in the latter's argument. LONDON ENJOYS MIDSUMMER DAY IN MONTH OF MARCH London, March 4.--The weather, which has not yet tired of dealing surprises to the British populace @fter several months of vagaries, which included storms, heavy snows and floods, sprang a Dew surprise today with brilliant sun- shine and warmth that seemed al- most like a day in August.

"And you should have sense en- ough to understand that my pro- motion in the Mill is not going to make any difference in our friend- ship. Your promotion was the re- sult of an accident, Charlie, ex- actly as my promotion in the Mill to-day is the result of an accident. Your superior officer happened to see you. I happen to be the son of Adam Ward. If I should have known then that your rank would make no difference in your feel- ing toward me, you have got to understand now that my position can make no difference in my feel- ing toward you." Charlie Martin's silence revealed how accurately John had guessed his Mill comrade's hidden thoughts. The new manager continued, *The thing that straightened me By HAROLD BELL WRIGHT. States Army. 1 suppose it is a ot différent mow that it is Captain John Ward and Private Charlie Martin of the United States In- dustries." Charlie continued, "You live in a mansion in a select district on the hill, I live in a little cottage on the edge of the Flats." "Over there it was officers' quarters and barracks," said John, shortly. Charlie tried again, "You wear white collars and tailored clothes at your work--I wear dirty overe alls." "We used to call "em uniforms," barked John. Captain Charlie hesitated a lite tle before he offered his next fact, and when he spoke it was with a little more feeling. "There are our families to take into account too, John. Your sister--well--isn't it a fact that your sister would no more think of calling on Mary than she would think of putting on overalls and going to work in the Min?" out on the question of our differ- ent ranks was that scrap where Captain Charlie and Private John found themselves en- to do Do you anywhere near except friend emy, and somebody had something darned quick. remember our argument?" "Do 1 remember!" exclaimed Charlie. "lI remember how you said it was your job to take the chance because I, being an officer, was worth more to the cause and because the loss of a private didn't matter 80 much anyhow." John retorted quickly, 'And you said that it was up to you to take the chance because it was an of- ficer's duty to take care of his men." "And then," said Charlie, "you told me to go to hell, commission and all, And I swore that I'd break you for insolence and insub- ordination if we ever got out of the scrape alive." "And so," grinned John, "we compromised by pulling it off to gether, And from that time on I felt different and was as proud of you and your officer's swank as if I had been the lucky guy myself." **Yes,"" sald Captain Charlie, smiling affectionately, "and I could see the grin in your eyes every time you saluted." "No one else ever saw fit, though," returned Private Ward, proudly. "Don't think for a minute that 1 overlooked that either," =aid Captain Martin, "If any ome else had seen it, I would have disciplin-| ed you for sure," "And don't you think for a min- ute that I didn't know that, too," retorted John. *I could feel you laying for me, and every mau in the company knew it just as he knew our friendship. That's what made us all love you so. We used to say that if Captain Charli would just take a notion to start for Berlin and invite us to go along the war would be over right there." Charlie Martin laughed appreci- atively, Then he said, earnestly, "After all, old man, it wasn't an officers' war and it wasn't a pri- vates' war, was it? Any more than it was the war of America, or England, or France, or Aus- tralia, or Canada--it was our war, And that, I guess, is the main rea- son why it all came out as it did." "Now," said John, with hearty enthusiasm, "you are talking sense," "But it is all very different now, John," said Charlie, slowly, * Mills- burgh is mot France and the Mill Is not the United States Army." "No," returned John, "and yet there is not such a lot of differ- ence, when you come to think it aut." "We can't disguise the facts," said Captain Martin stubbornly. "We are not going to disguise any- thing," retorted John. "I had an idea how you would feel over my promotion, and that is why I wanted you out here to-day. You've got to get this 'it's all very different now' stuff out of your system, So go ahead and shoot your facts." "All right," said Charlie. "Let's look at things as they are. It was all very well for us to moon over what we would do if we ever got back home when we kpew darped well our chances were a hundred to one against our ever seeing the old U. S. again, We spilled a lot of sentiment about comradeship and loyalty and citi- zenship and equality and all that, but. id "Can your chatter!" snapped John. "Draw out these facts that you are $0 apxious to have recog- nized. Let's have a good look at whatever it is that makes you rough-neck sons of toil so superior to us lily-fingered employers. to the bat." "Well," offered Charlie, reluct- antly, "to begin with, you are a millionaire, a university man, member of select clubs; I am no- thing but a common workman." John returned, quickly, "We are both citizens of the United States. In the duties and. privileges of our citizenship we stand on exactly the same footing, just as in the army we stood on the commen ground of loyalty. And we are both equally dependent upon the industries of our country--upon the Mill, and upon each other. Exactly as we were both depend- ent upon the army and upon each other in France." "You are the general manager of the Mill, practically the owner," sald Charlie. "I am only one of Your employees." The son of Adam Ward answer- ed scornfully, "Yes, over there it was Captain Charlie Martin and Private John Ward of the United caught in in| bo same shell hole with no one 'ec | Dori 1 tell you, John."

"Qn, I don't know," Treturned it with the other. "I thought we were discussing the question of rank," sald John, "Well," retorted Ch-rlie, dryly, "isn't that exactly the whole ques- | tion as your sister sees it?" "You give me a pain!' growled John, *I'li admit that Helen, | right now, attaches a great deal of {importance to some things that-- {well, that are not so very import- ant after all, But she is no worse [than I was before I learned better, And you take my word she'll learn, too.

Captain Charlie Martin sat up at this, but before he could speak John shot a question at him, "Tell me, when Private Ward saluted Captain Martin as the regulations provide, was the action held by either the officer or the private to be a recognition of the superiority of Captain Martin or the inferior. ity of Private Ward--was it?" "Not that any one could notice," answered Charlie with a grin, "You bet your life it wasn't" gaid John. "Well, then," he con- tinued, *what was it that the sal- ute recognized?" "Why, it was captain's rank." "Exactly; and what determined that rank?" "The number of men he manded."

LONE BOOTLEGGER HAS NEW SCHEME Smuggler on Skates is Inno- vation for Border Officials Ogdensburg, N.Y., Mar. 7.-- Border patrolmen, United States customs officials and prohibition enforcement officers of this north- ern town went into a huddle Mon- day to devise some means where- by a lone bootlegger, possessin an innovation in the liquor-run- ning trade, might be caught. The smuggler wears ice-skates and throughout the winter he has been using the steel runners in his bootleg activities, crossing the one-mile frozen stretch over the 3t. Lawrence River between here and Canada in less than 10 min- utes. His loads average four quarts and sometimes more if head winds are not too strong. The trans- river trips begin at dusk and con- tinue during the night, giving him an estimated earning of $10 a round trip. Since none of Uncle Sam's off- cers are equipped with skates, they cannot overtake the skater. For many nights enforcement of- ficials have lain in ambush only to have the smuggler scent trouble and glide away to disappear almost phantom-like somewhere on the crystal surface, ------ SOVIET DISARMAMENT PLAN IS SUPPORTED BY FARMERS Saskatoon, March 4.--A resolu- tion supporting the disarmament proposals submitted by the Rus- slan delegates at the recent assems bly of the League of Nations was concurred in at the final session of the United Farmers of Alberta, Saskatchewan Branch, cenvention here, The proposal involves world- wide disarmament within a speci- fied period.
