in the world of society and business affairs it is essential to be a good speller to most teachers this subject is a special bugbear the old method of assigning a list of words and telling the pupils to leant them is obsolete the chief thought with the present day teacher is how to leach the pupils effectively dictat- i ing words to them ts not teaching it is merely testing the teaching j is the important task teachers have j wasted valuable time dictating in- stead of teaching the most of the spelling period should certainly be devoted to calling the pupils at- j tentiou to the form of the word its meaning and its use a pupil may i be well employed to dictate his j own spelling to himself if he will carefully deliberately and thinking- ly study the form of the word before he writes it his effort will he richly rewarded to insure deliberation j direct him to divide the words in their syllables a lazy pupil is apt to copy the words a letter or two at a time thus malting his action mechanical and to no effect as to getting good images of the words after a test exercise it is good to employ pupils to mark their own lists and correct their own errors instead of thinking and

highly taxed in the world today and it urgently behooves the feder al and provincial governments the county and township councils to do everything in their power to lighten this burden declared hon t c kennedy ontario minister of agriculture in a recent address according to officials of the unit ed farmers cooperative co the price of eggs in ontario is lower than that at any time during the last 40 years in the peterboro dis trict eggs are selling at s cents a dozen while in other districts 7 3 and 11 cents are quoted for the three grades while the prevailing price paid by the local stores of 12 11 and lti cents may seem low it indi cates at the same time the favorable position of the stouffville farmers as compared with most of the province the talking pictures which loom ed up on the horizon some three years ago and forced the silent pic tures out of business are now in turn threatened by nnother mechan ical monster television one of the rapid outgrowths of radio much secrecy surrounds the experimental work being carried on in television but it is known that the national ilroadcaslingcoinpany intends to re lease short subjects by television in a chain of theatres within the next six months at present the talkies hold a big advantage in that sound films are free of static but on the other hand one television program may lie produced at a central point and distributed to audiences listen ing to and seeing the artists in sev eral theatres at once through he medium of powerful and expensive receiving apparatus at present the future of television outside of the experimental laboratories is largely a matter for conjecture but there can be no doubt but that it is on the way and tiiat shortly it will be a rival of the talkies or will supersede this form of entertainment to those who sometimes express the wisli that they might return to live one hundred years hence to see what the world looks like the pro phesy of sir james jean that it will last for
