Educational.

| To the Editor of the Examiner.

SIR,-—A correspondent in your issue of the 3rd instant has touched the right chord of our educational system. I hope the teachers ot P, E. Istand will give no uncertaia expres- sion of their opinions on the question, both through the press and at the spring meetings of their different Institutes. I may, in a futrre issue, touch upon other peints of the present system; but, for the present, I wil! confine myself to one,—how the teacher may 1acrease his professional knowledge after leav im. College and Normai School.

He must continue to study, otherwise he will retrogade to the foot of bis profession. ‘* Upward and onward” should be his motto,

A large lot of CONFECTIONERY from 15 to 20 cents; lot CHRISTMAS GOODS, very |avd only by earnest study of standard pro-

‘cheap; and sundry other articles too numerous to mention

| fessional works can he live up to his watch- word. But many teachers, with families to support, will object that their salary is too small to admit of purchasing,to any great ex

tent, the necessary works. Very true. But the way I propose out of the difficulty is by a Government grant, for the purpose of estab- iishing a teachers library in the Provincia)! Building, which should be open to teachers actually engaged in school work. A grant of lifteen hundred dollars ‘or the first year, aud tive or six hundred dollars a year a‘terwarda, would suffice to provide, enlarge, and keep in good order, a large and excellent library. The followin I would saggest as the modus oper-| jandi The library should be ie the Education | | Ufiice, under the direct covtiol of the Super | | intendent, and, as in pebtic libraries, a record | ) kept of sll books lent and returned. A great many teachers visit the eftice at the end of each quarter, and might then sec.re the books they wished to peruse during the ensuing quarter, and return them at their next visit, vhe price of any book lost or destroyed being deducted from their salaries. An extra clerk would only be required during three or four days at the end of the quarter.

This library should consist of all works use- ful to the teacher, or bearing on the profes- sion. I know, from six years’ experience ia the ranks, that teachers would gratefully re- ceive such a boon, and I think if they would unanimously demand it, they would soon have the satisfaction of knowing it to be a reality. I see no great difficulty in carrying out the idea, if we can only get the Gove: nment to make the first grant. A general election is coming on next summer, and candidates will soon be soliciting support. There are about seven male teachers. on an average, to each electoral district. May of them are voters— all have influence. Let them use their infiu- ence to thisend. Let them work and vote ouly for such candidates as will promise their

come improved, take a higher stamding, and evince a greater interest in their work, the beneficient result of which would be better schools. The lasting advantage thus derived would far outweigh the expenditure of the few hundreds of doliars necessary to secure it, and I believe that the people at large would cheerfully endorse the scheme.

Before saying more, I await the opinions of other teachers, and of our worthy Superin- tendent, on the subject.

Thanking you, Mr. Editor, for your valu- able space, I remain,

Yours very truly,

S. M. B. Indian River, P E. 1., March 7th, 1882.

S1r,—Two lies will not make one truth. On the 20th inst. the Patriot inserts, no doubt from Dame Rumor’s report, that James McKinnon’s house was burnt on the Thursday preceding. On the 23rd follow ing Archibald McKinnon reveals this error and says the house was his. The fact ot the matter is that the late Roderick Me- Kinnon died intestate, and that there are ‘now on terra firma five heirs to his house and premises; sv that Archy is like one uf the sons of Terniah—he has taken too {rouch on himself, probably to damage my credit with the public.

Mr. Grant Allen in the Contemporary says that there is growing up in England a echoul of sritics who have obviously based ibeir ideas of criticisv: upon Sainte Beuve and Saint Marc Giardia, and that English. men have been convinced of the high, wide and earnest conception of the critical fonction which had never yet existed in English minds. Just as the critical im- pulse is dying out in France it has begun to live in England,

An editorial in the New York Herald contrasts, very unfavorably for the latter, the treatment of the Indians by the Can- adian and United States Governments. It shows that under the system in vogue at Washington it is to the interest of contrac- tors, Indian agents, and others, to foment tronble with the aborigines, and points out how, while the report of the Canadien In- dian Department is filed with records of the advance of civilization, that of the Washington Department is nothing but a history of outrages and wars.

The great Sheffield handicap of 203 yards was run at Sheffield, England, on February 20. Hutchins, the English short distance champien, won the handicap by a few inches from T. Liddle (82 yards).
