Are we less mindful of our childrens’ needs than they?

A hundred years ago the nettl- ers’ first. thoughts turned to the building of a place of worship and a school wherein ‘their child- ren would be Elven the opport- unity to learn the better and high- er things of life. If they could not. have such for themselves they were all the more their children should have what they themselves were denled- It is true 1t was, of necessity. a most; meagre kind. Soon however school masters took over. and no self- denial on the part of the par- ents was too great if thereby a member of the family was en- nbled to pursue his studies.

What; of our Progress along these lines. Have we kept. up the standards laid down by our pioneer ancestors?

I'm afraid the answer is “Ne” Twenty flve years ago some of our rural schools were equipped with the apparatus necessary to teach the rudiments of science. New maps were on the walls. a clock would merrily tick the minutes away. s. piano was for the convenience of those who de- sired to practise or play. filday afternoons were given over to P. T., singing songs and learning to recite. A very necessary break in the regular routine and which made for B. fuller, happier school life. Where are all these little extras today? Worn out and dis- carded, but never, never replaced; rural citizens wake up! Mothers take heed! Would they elect to spend their days in a dark pokev kitchen rather than a bright modern one? Of course not! Yet that is exactly what we ask of our rural teacher.

How many mothers vlslted the school during the year? How many attended the annual school meet- ing? How many turned out b0 give the school n thorough cleaning before commencement.

It ts easy to pick out the d15- trlcts where the answer is “Yes," and equally easy to see where the touch of a woman's hand was lacking. . So I would urge mothers to get organized, leave their scrubbing and their cleaning for one Sat-
