The‘tennis court, baseball diamond and auditorium with its stage and piano were patronized during short rest periods. Students and teachers attended several functions in the village Community Hall, and went on ‘"‘hikes"" to places of interest in the neighborhood. Pehaps the most inâ€" structive of the ontings were the two meant an upward step in the profesâ€" sion which they loved, and was to be attained if hard work would avail. With all these contributory causes the real success of the undertaking was in the hands and hearts of the instructors. â€" Surely _ few _ summer schools were soâ€" fortunate in their teaching staffs, The Acting Principal of the Northern Academy, Mr. G. F. Rogers, High School Inspector took a very real interest in the students and their work, sparing no effort to make the course pleasant as well as profitable. Miss Storyâ€" _and â€" Mr. Wren, two of Toronto‘s Collegiate Specialists, gave of their best, which is saying much. They ngt only conâ€" ducted regular classes in the school room, but" were ever ready with inâ€" dividual instruction during the ‘long evenings. Wherever groups of stuâ€" dents gathered, in scehool, study hall, or verandahs, or in shady nooks outâ€" side, these indefatigable â€" workers were within call, rendering assistance and encouragement in such a joyous constructive _ way _ that, difficulties melted before them. Apart from the resulis accomplished, the inspiration of their highâ€"hearted attitude toward the work should beget much hopeful patience to brighten tedious future days in those privileged=â€"to associate with "them. ‘ The situation of the Northern Academy is particularly favourable to such a project. The buldings are remote from all distracting influences, the studyâ€"rooms _ well â€" ventilated, lighted and heated. In fact, the Academy is equipped with all city conveniences, while the wide veranâ€" dahs and many. open windows proâ€" vide plenty of the cool, invigoratâ€" ing air for which the North is famâ€" ous. ‘When we consider that in adâ€" dition to these advantages the stuâ€" dents reside in the Academy, being provided with icomfortable sleeping accommodation, and _ wholesome, deâ€" licious meals, featuring country butâ€" ter, cream and eggs, it will be seen that the working conditions are ideal. The class was composed of eighâ€" teen earnest, capable country teachâ€" ers, each ‘bent on making the most of the opportunities _ offered. Success Dear Editor:â€"The people of Northâ€" ern Ontario must surely feel gratiâ€" ied at the results of the examinaâ€" tions following the Summer Course ai Monteith. A prominent official of the Departâ€" ment of _ Education is reported to have said, **From the examination results iz is evident that the experiâ€" ment in giving the Academic Course in Monteith was a success this sumâ€" mer. The reésults there were better than in any other summer sehool centre.‘‘ When we â€"consider that the students had no time for preparation of their subjects, after it was decided to give this course, such results are both surpwising and gratifying. However, to one who witnessed the working of this miracle the outcome can be traced to very definite causes. than in â€" any ceentre."‘"â€" WJ Readers generally will be interested in the following letter written by Mrs. Jones, a teacher in Hearst, in reuard to the Summer School for lea(hel‘s held in Monteith last July. This ed« ucational venture was begun by the Department of Education last summer and its progress and success should wrove of more than passing interest. The fact that close to a million dollars is invested in school facilities in the Town of Timmins alone, with the Township of Tisdale showing an‘equa‘ liberality in providing Aor education, proves that this district is earnestly interested in â€" education. The letter trom Mrs. Jones follows:â€" Situation Particularly Favourable for Project. Eighteen Teachers Took Course Last Summer.

Peter Smith, was robbing the public, and the Deputy Provincial Treasurer was getting his share of the loot. ‘*The Journal detests the popular passion for damning politicians.
