Many are speculating as to the pro-
bable ef'fect‘of the war upon the world, up- on civilization and particularly upon the nations involved in it. It were as easy to predict the effect of a course in school upon the future of a boy or of a body of boys. A student may leave school educated, re- fined, cultured, strengthened mentally and physically; he may leave it uneducated, broken morally, mentally and physically.
in-g--depends-upon--the~-use-he--makes
of his advantages. .
The war today is the biggest thing in
the world; it is the school of the nations engaged in it; a hard and a costly school but a school nevertheless in which all the virtues of Christianity and all the vices of hell are being taught. We in our peaceful homes are as much in the school as are the boys on the battlefront; the virtues and the vices are as much in evidence here as in the war zones and in the camps. T-he temp- tations here are as great, the opportunities for sacrifice as many as where men are kill- ing each other or laying down their lives for their friends.
What are we over here looking for as a
result of the war? “A new and a better world? _Opportunities for more money- making? Promotions? ' Emolumentsff Are we looking for a new code of ethics whereby the profiteer shall be obliged to abandon his activities-and leave them for us toyexploit? Are we looking for larger opportunities whereby we ourselves-not others-shall be the better able to help the world and to make it the better for our having lived in it? We shall have accord- ing to our seeking. ,
We have our opportunities here, as they
have them over there, to win the disting- uished service medal-a medal not made with hands nor presented by Kings or Em- perors-the approval of our consciences and the gratitude of our fellowmen. If, in carrying on our part _of the war, we have secured these we shall have contributed something to the world redemption that is be/ing accomplished on the fields of Europe.
We do not look for any change in hu-
man nature as a result of the war; this never changes. We do look for a re-ad- justment of the relations between brethren of' all race sand creeds; this is, at least in many instances, already in evidence. The races and the creeds and the social castes are together in the melting pot over there and they are being fused into a uni- versal brotherhood. Over here, also, in the melting pot of common suspense and com- mon sorrow men and women are- being born anew into true manhood and woman- hood .with broader human sympathies and a kindlier fellowship.
We do not look for a new religion as a
result of the war; religion never changes. It is only the garment which we call reli- gion that changes, and it changes, as our other garments do, in compliance with the dictates of fashion. We do look for a re- turn to religion, the religion of action not of words; the religion exemplified on the battlefield where a man lays down his life for a friend, for a principle, for an ideal.

Elsewhere in this issue we publish a
circular letter sent by the Superintendent of Education to the Secretaries of the School Boards throughout the province with a request that it be read at the an- nual school meetings on Tuesday next. It will be noted that copies of this circular have been sent to all clergymen in the pro- vince asking for their co-operation in av- erting what is now regarded as a serious crisis in our public schools.
The seriousness of the situation is per-
haps not fully realized by many who are really interested in our public schools and especially in the schools in their `own dis- tricts. So serious is it that His Lordship the Chief Justice, in addressing the Grand Jury at Summerside at the opening of the present t-erm of the Supreme Court, urged ,upon them to ‘use their influence in secur- ing such remuneration for the teachers as would iii'du-ce them to remain in the profes- sion. It is now a matter of common know- ledge _that teachers of standing or of ordi- nary ambition will not engage in teaching at the salaries offered in this province.
Within the past abr over one hundred of our teachei~s,"pi'o bly‘our'best ones, have
gone to the western provinces where they ‘are paidliving salaries and where their services are appreciated. It is also a mat- ter of common knowledge that many other teachers are awaiting the action of the school meetings on Tuesday next before accepting or refusing the standing invita- tion of the Western Schools with their higher salaries. ' - The retention of our best teachers and the maintenance of the present standard of our schools rests with the ratepayers and they will gi\§_e`i_‘.he1r decision -1 on _Tuesday next. The government has ‘reached its li-
The districts ;nust.=bej`prepar‘e(l to payfan` adequate supplement or go without teach-
be amplified. f The future, not of the pro- vince alone, but of each child depends up- on what action the meetings take. This year every married woman who has a child of school age has a vote at the annual school meeting and we feel sure that they will see the justice and the necessity of _ta-_ -k-i-ng-snch steps~as~will secure--responsi»ble and capable teachers for their children. A teacher who is worthy of being entrusted with the training and educating of a child should be worthy also of such hire as will enable him or her to live respectably, of such hire as will be at least commensurate with the cost of their education and rea- sonably proportionate to the hire of others, less qualified- in other callings.
The action taken at our meetings on
Tuesday will be awaited with anxiety as well as interest and we ‘trust that the re- ports of this meetings will show that our people are alive to the responsibilities rest- ing upon them.

THE REGIS'1`R.\'1‘I()N OF JUNE 22ND
The registration which the Govern-
ment has ordered of the men and women resident in Canada will take place on Sa- turday, J une`22nd. All persons, male and female, resident in the country are requir-
cd, under exceedingly heavy penalties, to
register at one or other of the booths that will be opened, as in the case of a general election, in every district of the Dominion on Saturday of next week. Several ‘mis- leading statements, which require to be corrected, have appeared in the press dur- ingthe pa"s`t`“'sé`veral"weekichifedyiiecausef half-matured Government plans, which were subsequently abandoned, appear to have been prematurely given out. One of these was that the registration would only include persons between 16 and 60 years of age. Under the order made by the Go- vernment there is no upward age limit. All persons over 16 years of age, even inclu- ding centenarians, if there be any such in the country, must register. It is also im- portant to remember that everyone must register in person. Registration by proxy will not be permitted. Persons who hap- pen to be away from home on registration day may register in the booth to which they may happen to be nearest on June 22nd. Special provision will be made to receive declarations from such persons as may be prevented by illness from presenting them- selves at the booth on registration day. _But there will be no such thing as registration by mail, or through the medium of agents.
Not only are there heavy penalties pro-
vided in any cases of non-registration but any incorrect statements, knowingly made, in the answering of any of the' questions contained on the registration forms, rend- er the party making them liable to fine and imprisonment.
The purpose of the Government is to
procure through this registration a com- plete _and reliable inventory of the man and woman resources of the Dominion. It has of course no reference whatever to the Mi- litary Service Act. It is probable, however, that if the war continues long enough the data which the Government will thus ob- tain, may be utilized in the future indus- trial organization of the country, and in prosecuting at home necessary work hav- ing direct relation to the nation’s war efforts.

NOTES
Never since 'Calvary has there been so
supreme a moment in the world’s history as we are witnessing now. It is 'no figure of speech when I say it; it is the awful fact, that on yonder field of Flanders all the for- ces of Hell are in death grapple with the forces of Righteousness, determining, the question, apparently, for all time, whether the future of this world shall be Christian or Pa an, Civilized or Barbarian, a Slave Work? or Free. We are at war. It is a real war. We have got to beat them or they will beat us. And if that should happen-
