It was paint-1 ouithit while education isa matter of Provincial concern wholly, yet, at-wiference of the Provincial Min- isters of Fduc-ation could arrange fora uniform stiindard certificate. It was claimed by three of the Provinces-Ontario Manitoba, and Nova Scotia, that their standard ifhighest The resolltion sent in by the Montreal L. C. regarding the impor ;ance of purity of speech and accent was adopted, and the Provincial Boards are of Education asked to give it special attention. To the question, “Where is the English language spoken most purely" the reply was given together by three, “Dublin", “Iriver-ness," and “Oxford." The three delegates were Irish, Scotch and English respectively. The following cablegram was read from " Lady Aberdeen in reply to the Councils greeting of the previous day: “Thanksq Semper Cum Vobis, Ishbel Arberdeen.‘ , At this session the ofllcers were re-
elected with the exception of the Treasurer Mrs. Learmount, of Montreal, taking Mrs Hoodless’ place. Mrs. Boomer is to relieve Lady Taylor by acting in her stead for the next six months; that Lady Taylor may have perfect freedom from public work as enjoined by her physician. At the morning session on Monday Zlth the reports from the Provincial Vice- Presidents were continued. Then followed the report from the Loan Fund, showing the amounts subscribed by the local councils and repaid by the Doukhobor women. Mrs. Fitzg gibbon championed the cause of the Doukhobors as the best possible immigrants to Canada. She described their manners and customs and explained away many of the objections existing against them. The reports of the Immigration Com- mittee, and the “Care of Women of Feeble intellect" were also read and adopted. The report on “Pernicious Literature” was presentel cy Miss Wilson. Post Olllce authorities have given co-oper xtiou in the work of suppressing and destroying literature unfit for circulation. The Canadian Council is not in favour of increasing the voting strength of the International Council and resolved to support the Danish Council in its motion,

“that each National Council should, lu addition to the president and two delegates, have the right to send s x o‘her delegates, but without the power of voting". It, the Canadian Council also advocates that “all couveners of stanling committees, duly appointed at the quinquennial sessions ofthe International Council. be members of the International Executive, but without the power to vote.
Regarding the resolution! “That a

Her able paper was followed by one on “Home Arts and Handicraft" by Miss Phillips.
Resolutions were adopted favoring the
establishment of vacation school and play grounds, and asking school boards to per- mit the use of school grounds for recrea- tion under proper supervision during the summer months. -
Excellent papers, provoking much dis-
cussion, were read on “Simpler Methods of Giving;” “Travelling Libraries;” “Jail Reform;” “Girls’ Clubs,”etc.; "Agriculture for Women;” “Domestic Science;” “Womeu’s Institutes,” where papers are read and discussed concerning wonieul work on the farm, etc., etc.
This only gives an idea of the nal ure of
the work done by the National Council, for space will not admit of the doings of the three long daily sessions for a week which the delegates attended faithfully and with pleasure and pront. There were receptions, drives and lunches inter- spersed. But the conferences together on their common work, needs, aims and in- terests have been inspiring and far- reachiug and a lasting impression of the week`s work made upon all who had the pleasure of attending the meetings.
ii; MT. ALLISON UNIVERSITY.
Sacxvrnns, N. B., May 30.-The board of regents of Mt. Allison finished their deliberations this afternoon. It was de- decided to establish on a permanent basis the chair of New Testament Greek and Church History, and Rev. Dr. Paisley was appointed to the professorshlp. In regard toLieut-Governor McClelan’s olferl of five thousand dollars towards thai establishment of a. manual training school; conditional on a like contribution from other sources, the board gratefully accept- ed the offer and took steps towards secur- ing the remaining flve thousand dollars. Rev. Dr. _Rrecken’s retirement from the University stall' was announced. He finds himself compelled by ill-health to give up this work and will be greatly missed in the school and community. It is found the accommoda- tion of the Ladies’ College has been strain- ed to the utmost by the attendance of the last few years, and the board has consider- ed the question of building; a large wing, which would eventually form part- of a complete stone building. But in view of the extentsive building operations of the past few years it was dually decided not to undertake a further large enter. prise this year, and temporary arrange- ments will be made to overcome the pre- sent difiiculties.

But for some reason, hitherto unexplained, the burgliers of the southern Middleburg district, Ermela and Carolina, have throughout the campaign shown a mar- tial spirit as distinct from that of the other Boers as that of Pathans from that of the Madrasees.

These trees were selected by Dr.Siun.iers when in Europe lastiyear from a large tree nursery in Normandy. Befo;e making thc selection he visited, ixfcoznpany with Col. Gourdeau, the sea shores of Brittany and carefully studied the results of tree planting there, which was begun sixty years ago on the drifting sands af the sea coast. The trees purchas- ed forexpérimentxl test on Sable Island included a large number of those which have sucscclei .v-all in Frlnce, to which were ad.le.l n number of other sorts, which from Canadian experience were
