continues to grow. It jumped from $318,. 000,000 to 330,000,000 in the last year. Have the people of this country any limit to their minds beyond which they wil! not permit their property to be mortgaged?

In due season there will be a return to the Canadian policy of the conservative party, which is real peferential trade, beneficial to both Canada and the mother country, and in the best interests of the empire.

BROOKFIELD MEETING

A jvint political meeting was held at the Brookfield Hall last evening. The hail was filled to the doors. Angus McLeod was appointed chairman. The four candidates were allowed haif an hour each.

James McLean, West River (tax- gatherer) addressed the meeting for about ten micutes, imploring the electors to vote for the government candidates so be could bold his office for four years longer.

John Balderston made a short address on the new tax act. He was replied to by Mr. Horne.

Mr. Farquharson has a horde of Gov- ernment officials following him to every meeting to give him cheers such as tax gatherers, road supervisors, Scott Act prosecutors, Registry Office officials and others.

The Conservative candidates had the best of the meeting. Three hearty cheers were given for Messers. Horne and Mc- Millan, but the Government candidates could not get acheer. This looks well for the Conservative candidates. Around Brookfield there seems to be a strong feel- ing against the Government,

COLLEGIATE SCHOOL, WINDSOR, N. S.

A cABLE message received from the Bishop of Nova Scotia announces that, after a personal interview with four select- ed candidates, he bas chosen Mr. F. T. Handsombody, B. A., of Trinity College, Dublin, to fill the position of head master of this school. In making the appointment

regard has been had not 80 much to Academical distinction as to personal character and successful experience ip

teaching and general school management. That is the reason why candidates who have obtained high mathematical honors in the University of Cambridge have been passed over in favor of the gentlemen selected. Mr. Handsombody has been for more than ten years assistant master in Sir W. Borlace’s endowed school, Great Marlow, England, and for the last seven years he bas had joint management of one of the school houses. The head mas‘er of this school in writing of Mr. Handsom- body savs that “he fully understands the ma agement of a boarding school, and he has always had the greatest confidence in assigning boys to his care;” that “the school examiners have frequently eom- plimented Mr Handsombody on the work of his pupils ;” that he is an excellent diciplinarian and maintains perfect order without harshness;” and, what is of the greatest importance, he speaks in the highest terms of bis moral character, and of the gocd influence he exercises upon the hoys with whom he is brought in eontact. The second master, endorsing what is said by the head master, adds that Mr. Handsombody is a strong-minded man, universally respected by the boys, and may be depended upon to do his best in whatever he undertakes,

The boys of the Collegiate school will be clad to know that Mr. Handsombody is an unnsually good all-round athlete. Jo reference to this the head master

writes: “He isa first-rate cricket and football player, and has rendered excelent service in coaching the XI’s and taking an interest in the pursuits of the boys out of achool.” Several others who have had facilities for forming an opinisn of Mr. H and-ombody’s character and capabilities speak of himin the same high terms. Indeed he seems to have borne the same character from bis youth up. In leaving the school where he was educated, at the age of eighteen, he is spoken of as having head an excelleut influence upon the vounger boys. We feel that the Collegiate School is to be congratulated upon having obtained the services of its new head n.as- ter, and predict for ita future of ever- increasing usefulness and prosperity. 6-6? ee
