LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.

Canada Prize Competition.

Srr,—Much interest has been taken by the schools of the Dominion in the Canada Prize Competition. Messrs. Dougall & Son's object in giving so many and valu- able prizes is to encourage the study of Canadian History and English Composition. There is surely no more vapurtant acquis: ition a boy can make in school than a proper knowledge of his moter tongue, the ability to express his thoughts and feel- ings in simple and concise English, and a facility in presenting written matter ip #0 intelligible and correct form. What profits it if he can give to a decimal of two places the percentage of the various constituents of a pumpkin, and can’t compose & simpie letter? What advantage is it to him if he can repeat from memory the names of all the villages from. Dan to Beersheba, and can't combire a verb and its subject in con- formity with the rules of English grammar / o inculcate the habit of neatness and cor- rectness 15 composition requires the greal- est patience and most persistent attention on the part of a pupil's imstructor. We have had lately a practical test of work of this nature in the Canada Prize Competl- tion. The relative standing of the Island ascertained from Dr. Har- pers report. From it we gather the fol- iowing bits of information : The girls have done better work than the boys; pupils of female teachers have proven superior to those of the male persuasion ; pupils ol second-class teachers are equal to those of the first class; the number of essays receiving prizes and honorable mention 1s twenty-three; of these girls have written fourteen and boys nine. We can notice vnly eight of these as coming from depart- ments presided over by male teachers. The highest place in the province has been won by a young laly—the pupil of a fems»le teacher The titles of these essays, tou, ire highly suggestive of the average boy's literary ** happy hunting grounds.” Any one would most likely sapppose that com- petiturs from first-class and graded schools would have a decided advantage over those from ungraded country schools, and, con sequently, send in better pspers. But such is not the case. Excepting Chariotte- town, which for the purpose of the compe- tition is regarded as a separate county, not one of the first class schools of Queen’s nor King’s has sent up a paper which the judge has deemed worthy even of honoratle men- tion. This does not necessarily imply that good work has not been done, but that it has been done by the ungraded country schools. Some reason for this should be given by the principals of the graded schools. Perhaps they did not bring the matter prominently before their pupils. If 30, 36 much the worse for them.

L. R. N. King’s County, June 20th, 1890. =~ What Can the Matter Be?

S1r,—Now that the dry goods, boot and shoe and jewelry dealers haveset such a good exampie by closing at 1 p. m. on Monday,

schoo.s can De

what can be the matter with the grocery and hardware dealers that they do not fol

low and give their employes the same op-j portunity to enjoy themselves. It cannot be that employes in those branches of busi- ness think that their clerks have easier or cleaner work than their more favored fellows, for they acknowledge the contrary. This being so, Can we put it down to a mer- cenary motive on their part? Sn-ely not, as it would tend to make people having business to do to do it in _ business{

hours, and net be straggling around at alltimes. Itisa fact well known to

those interested that were a store kept open till midnight there would still be someone todrop in and keep it open eti}! later, someone who may, perhaps, think that clerks are machines and do not need any rest or recreation, but can stand on therr feet from 7 o'clock, a. m., till eight p. m., and run any number of times up stairs or down celiar to wait on chem, without feel ing any fatigue. if so, let thei try it themselves for one week in Summer, and if they still hold to the same opinion, they have better muscle and more endurance than most of us.

~However. we hope and trust that those who have the power will also have the will and adopt at least the system of early clos- ing, and gain {the everlasting gratitude of their employes.

Live Stock in Germany.

Hiram J. Dunlap, formerly editor of the Champaign (Ill.) Gazette, now Consul to Breslau, Germany, in the course of an in- teresting letter to his paper, has this to say of live stock in that country :

1 have already mentioned the fact that all domestic avimals here are taught to lead. There being no fence anywhere it is therefore necessary to have them very do- cile so that they can be tied together and prevented from ranning into the growing crops. When cattle are taken to market they are tied together by the head in files

of three, four or more, and a mah goes along to lead each file. This would be

rather expensive in the United States. 1 aw a lot of cattle going through the streets hore a few days ago. There were nineteen steers in the drove, and most of them had a hole in the lefr ear through which a cord was passed and tied around the horns of the one alongside There were five leaders and one man on horseback, Hogs, sheep and goats all lead, though generally they are marketed in waggons. The hogs are not sv ** hog fat” as American farmers like to get them, and all that I have seen have long snouts, coarse bristles, and are white in color.
