THE \\'OIIK OI" THE SCHOOL.
_Tlue business of the primary school is not to make lawyers or doctors or. farmers or merchants or blacksmiths or other professionals or craftsmen of the pupils; its business is to lay foundations upon which some one of these may be built. And the foun- dation is common to them all. The carpenter or the farmer needs the same foundation upon which to build as the lawyer or the doctor or the clergyman. Up to a certain point their educational necessities are alike and up to this point the state has a right to provide the education. Just where in our ordinary curriculum the point should be fixed is a matter of detail but in a province so well favored as ours we should not be too nigardly about it. It should at least include an intelligent knowledge of the subjects re- quired for matriculation into Prince of Wales Col- lege. Every public school should be able to provide this and every child in the province should be com- pelled to attend the public school until he acquires it or at least a respectable portion of it. This is the foundation which the state has a right to provide for every citizen and as it is the right of the state to provide it, so it is the right of the citizen to utilize it. Because ofthis we should have a rigid system of compulsory attendance at school, not for a few scat- tered weeks but for a sufficiently long period-annual- ly to ensure that every mentally fit child in the coun- try should be reasonably educated. ’
As to what is to follow the laying of this foun- tlation, whether the boy is to become a professional, a tradesmln, a farmer-this must depend largely upon the boy's natural bent. More than half the fail- fires in the world today are men whose calling in life has been chosen for them by others, not by themsel- ves. Every mentally healthy child born into the world is capable of filling a useful niche in it. If, through the ignorance or pride or neglect of par- ents, he is placed in the wrong niche, he is as certain to be a misfit as is the “round plug in a square hole.”
In every one of the so called “learned profes- sions” there are men struggling for a bare exist-

farm in this province and elsewhere there are men and women, slaves to uncongenial work and sur- roundings, failures, so far as usefulness is concern- ed, who would have shone and been successes in oth- er callings. It is not necessary to recall Grey's Elegy to prove this; we have all met the “village Hamp- dens" the “mute inglorious Miltons," met them in every walk of life.
Let our public schools devote their attention not to the making of farmers or doctors or lawyers but to fit the pupils for the calling in life for which God has endowed them with the necessary talents. The wise and conscientious teacher can do much in influencing the child, in training the developing tal- ents towards the goal which they are fitted to reach, whether that goal be the management of a farm or of a congregation, the making of boots or the building of railways, the handling of horses of of juries.
'l‘H E DALTON SA NATORII’ M.
We are informed, that the Dalton Sanatorium is undergoing the usual treatment accorded to vac- ant and deserted buildings. The windows are made the target for the little boys’ stone-throwing skill while anything worth while that can be detached from the main building is being taken care of by thieves.
Surely the provincial government could have made such provision as would at least save this valu- able property from destruction. To attempt to evade responsibility by simply abandoning the property and leaving it to the mercy of vandals and the elements is simply criminal and the responsibility remains up- on the government's shoulders. They are the respon- sible caretakers of the property and, shirk it as they will, the province will hold them responsible at least for the care of the building until some provision is made to fulfil the purpose for which this munificent gift was made to the province,.or until a government is formed which 'will be big enough to overcome such difficulties as may be met with in so utilizing it.

The hand never will rule the brain for any time. In moments of madness when it does it destroys it-
would set up to rule, must always be directed by the conceiving and planning mind. By this alone can the hand exist. The hand can conceive only the simplest necessities. Labor withoutcapital and direction must dwell in the cave of the primitive man. . When it seeks to rule it wipes out what makes labor en'- durable. and in the progress of the human has brought labor out of darkness to a great and grow-

In the early days of our P. E. Island history, much of the British custom prevailed. Goose suppers, candy pulling and apple dipping constituted the in- door festival. The buoyant lads, natural lovers of mischief were permitted to play one part ofgob- lln, ghost or witch, but under pro- per restraint. Our oltl people will remember those days. The cabbage stocks from recently cropped fields was above law the property of the boy. and the use of these on a door panel was not classed as ‘a high tifliilt‘. Beyond this the boy dare not, and to his credit did not. go. it iviis in the days when parents knew how and what to teach, and boys knew liow to be men and to obey. '

Some dny I'll wander back again, To where the old home stands, Beneath the old tree down the lane, Affai- in other lands.
its humble cot will shelter me From every care and pain.
And life be sweet as sweet can be When l am home again.
Some dny I'll wander back agnin, To scenes so dear to me,
Where life. sweet lnfancy's refrain Beside a mother knee.
To live once more the golden hours Of joyous, merry play,
No thorns but only sweetest flow-
on, There in life's merry way.
Se‘ dny I'll wander back again, To ‘hearts so kind and true;
Whose gentle faces still remain in memory’; cherished view.
No more my wnywiird feet will
roam
Life's troubled pathway o'er.
But in the light and love of home I'll rest me evermore.

beyond tloh- and topnmllao roni‘ . autos even to deotniciJolL-il danger- ous enemy of the pewfi loving economic world of today. and the Tone which calls for the united coin- mun sense of the mules to subdue and control. The extremist who believes. or pretends to believe, that capitalists are a menace and a curse to any country is in his cum- paign straining every argument, without regard to reaoon or logic. to convince the fin-wealthy that he is the vidtim of opresaion. and to inflame him in mind and in soul into a fever of discontentinent and unrest. Then on the other hand is the extremist in capital who rails to comprehend the position and unquestioned right of labor to the full share of its enrningn rind protection, and of his li-lst due of a fair and DPO-Dortionate division of all those god things sent by the munificence of a kind Provi-
dence for the comfort and happi- ness of the whole human race.
There is then the species of radicalism in industrial capitalism which seams to exist in a world of its own, created by itself, whose creed is that all outside of itself are only subsidiary forces which in duty -bound to contribute to its greatness. This species Is again
met by oposite combinations, such f for instance as the extremists in I
the recently developing farmers movement, preaching the doctrines thait agriculture is the only and one thing possible, the great Krialr na or Vishnu, the Juggernaut be- neath which industry and the con- puniling masses imuslt revdrently throw their bodies to be crushed out of life by Ils oncoming forces. In politics there is the radical of policy which finding that n scien- tific system of protection worked upon rational and practical lines liaviing abundantly contributed to the prosperity of a country at once urges enlargement of the process into severity which in practice would amount to oppression. Tiien the oposite fanrtic who seeing iin- other country, under directly op- po\ite condition, prospering under free trade immediately applies the lever to impose it upon u people where it would be out of its ele- ment, and working an absolute hardship.
This fomenter of antagonism and creator of‘ unrest is most heavily centred in those combines which are the curse of the world today. They evlst not alone in the grenr mergers, often characterized us the "big interests,“ which control the great Industrial and commercial machinery of the world, but also and with equal force and danger. iliose great labor and professional combinations which in recent yreiirs has so often laid its heavy hund upon_the wheels of progress and commanded rthe bold’ up’ of the machinery of the universe. it is the radicalism of all these systems that is the threatening enemy 0f the world today, and which must be ifougbt to extinction before peace can prevail. it is Ithese that are defying the iiiws of God and of nu- ture, of production _iind consump- tion, supply and demand. There iii tnlk of abridgment of human lib- erty and the inherent rights of per- sonal freedom to the subject fre- quenfiiy injected into public dia- cussion. but. under these systems of combines and unions who is there who has any right of personal ac- iion or liberty of thought. All are obedient to the beck and nod or
it in a hadrship alike upon the operators and those who are oper- nted on, and only when these force: are ohiitfraied will the world re- turn to normal.
