You will have criticisms to make. You must have suggestions to offer. We shall_be grateful to all con- tributors, corrasponden‘ and all others who may help us in our efforts. We shall endeavour to provide a reasonable amount of professional material which shall deal with many of the problems, lacing our teaching body, and hav- ing a direct bearing upon the people of this province. Let us iupport our organization. Remem- aer it is our Federation not the federation. Only as you infonn us sf your objections and ideas can the organization and you benefit from them. Hoping you may all have a suc- cessful and prosperous school year. School should be thought of as a life to be lived where there is action. co-operation, and opportun- ity to develop desirable attitudes, habits and. ideals. It is the func- tion of the school. through care- fully selected experiences to stimu- late, modify, and. direct the growth of each pupil physically, mentally, morally and socially, so that the continual enrichment of the in- dlvldual's life and an improved so- ciety may result. Going to school can be a glorious adventure. There is more to it than “Reading" and "Writing" and "Arithmetic." There is the oppor- tunity to gain much useful know- ledge, to make many new friends and to learn how to live. There will be many difficulties to over- come both in the classroom and on the playing field. May the good and beautiful things which in youth we hope are true be things which in age we know are true. And may that knowledge grow from more to more because sometimes the clouds break or ‘at evening time it is light. MAKE OUR LIVES SUBLIME Some mischievous boy threw a ‘rock through the plate-glass win- IIOW of a shoe merchant, not to be dismayed, the cheerful shoemaker placed in the window a placard on 'wliich was printed the words: "The window may be damaged, but the goods are still the best." More cus- tomers were attracted to his shop than ever before. He made the best of a misfortune. ‘ Men whose lives have been an inspiration to us through the ages have overcome handicaps that would have "floored" many of us. AGOOD The family motto of the late Sir Edward Bcatty, is "Qui beat bea- tus." These Latin words mean, "He who blesses others is himself blcst." We find real happiness by bring- lng happiness to others. It is more blessed to give than to receive. You have heard of the man who tackled a job that someone said couldn't be done. "He started to iing as he tackled the thing that couldn't be done-and he did it!" Got any rivers they say are un- lrossable? Got any mountains you can't tunnel through? We specialize in the wholly impossible. Doing the things that no one can don P. . CORN LAWS-The series of laws regulating the export and import of grain. Great Britain being now mainly a manufacturing country much grain has to be imported for bread-making. In 1815 a corn law was passed forbidding the import of wheat unless the price was over l0 s. a quarter. It was hoped that this would eiicourage British farm- ers to continue growing much wheat as they had done during the _ wars with Napoleon. But 80 s. a quarter for wheat made bread 1H1‘ find WOHIBPEB! 1135110" i°°k free. Wilberforce was buried in place until the law was altered iwflltminlter Abbey. HISTORY BENEVQLENQEg _ Gm, of Lord Chancellor's functions re- money which some men were forced to pay to the king as a maik of good will. The word "benevolence" means “goodwill.” CIIANCELLOIQ- The Chancel- lor first appears under Edward the Confessor, but although he was an important oflicer, dealing with the king's clerical business, for many years after the Conquest he was second to the Justiciar, who was the king's chief adviser, and repre- sented him while he was absent. From the time of Edward I. the Chancellor, later called the Lord Chancellor, was the chief minister under the king. He had his own court of Chancery. and fulfilled many duties. having ch-irge of the royal seal, and being Keeper of the King's Conscience. As his du- ties became too numerous. other officials took thcm over, and the USE TIIE RIGHT WORDS Here are ten sentences with words missing, Above the senten- ces is a list of words.

Dec. 31, 1600. under the title of “Governor and Company of Merchants of London trading with the East Indies." The first expedition of four ships un- der James Lancaster left Torbay towards the end of April 1601. and reached Sumatra in June 1602, rc- turning with a cargo of spices. WILBERFOBCE — William Wil- berforce, 1789-1833 will always be remembered as the leader of the movement in the House of Com- mons for the abolition of slavery, prince amorig a tremendous and he lived just long enough to . see the desire of his life fulfilled. In 1807 the export of slaves from Africa had been abolished, but the smuggling of slaves had continu- ed, and many hundreds of thou- sands of poor wrctches were suf- fering undcr the harsh treatment of slave owners in various parts of the British Dominions. In 1833. Parliament abolished slavery and paid $20,000,000 to the owners as compensation. before 5 years had passed 800.000 slaves had iron set The Amaion River. (c) The Medi- l.

The rising was unsuccessfulhnd the leaders were put to death. MONOPOLIES - The sole rights to make or sell certain articles such as soap or glass.

A good speech does not consist of a number of facts one aftcr another. Boil down your arguments. Speeches are for the purpose of persuading people. Prove your point. by argument or discussion. It is not true or correct The mood of the verb is the man- ncr in which the statement made by the vcrb is presented to the mind. I There arc three moods: I. Indi- cative Mood, ll Subjunctive Mood, III Imperative. The indicative Mood presents to the mind the action or state de- noted by the verb as an actual fact; as, "I am tired." The Subjunctive Mood presents to the mind the action or state de- noted by the vcrb as a possibility or supposition, but not as a fact: “if I be tired"; “Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty." The Imperative Mood is a form of the verb by means of which we luttcr a command, rcqucst or ex- hortation. "Give me a book." The Indicative Mood is then the work of direct assertion or state- ment, and it speaks of actual facts. The Subjunctive Mood is the mood of assertion also, but with a modi- fication givcn to the assertion by the mind through which it passes. The Subjunctive cannot be used in a simple declarative or interro- gaiive sentence. It is called the subjunctive or joining on mood because (except when expressing a wish) It is only employed in complex scntcnccs where one statement is joined to another. The chief uses of the subjunctive may bc capitulated as follows: 1. In simple sentences to express a wish; thus, “Thy will be done"; "God save the Queen." This is called the Optative subjunctive (onto. I wish). I1. In subordinate clauses of com- plcx sentences. (a) In a present or past conditional clause which implies denial; as. "If he were present (which he is not) I would speak to him." (Present condition- hi.) I "If our horse had not _ fallen (which hr did) wo should not iinvc missed the train." (Past/Con- ditional.) Noto" In the present condition implying denial (or something contrary to fact), observe that the past indefinite tense is used; e.g. Scientists of many countries have made their contributions to tho science of agriculture. Despite its youth as a nation. Canada has been fortunate in the contribu- tiun of its own scientists to this field. The work of the late Dr. William Saunders, first director of the Canadian government experi- mental farms, and his son Sir Charles E. Saunders, serves as a fino example. A wheat was sougH that would ripen ten days to a fortnight earlier than Red Fife, the whcat which was establishing the reputation of the northwest. Dr, William Saunders crossed Red Fife with wheats from all over the world and produced a multitude It takes skill and training to shoot at a target and hit the bull's- cyc. There must be keen vision and musclc control. A good marks- man kccps himself in trim. In an cxpcrimcnt highly experienced army marlsman were given alco- holic beverages to drink just be- fore they started shooting. It was found that these men made poorer scores when under the effects of alcohol than when not under its effects. Life demands steady heads and hands of‘ those who would shoot squarely. At present we may aim at a fine game of baseball, good work at school, or a neatly done job on the farm. As we grow older we may hope to score high in other things.

(b) A short time during the middle of the day. (c) All night. PUBLIC SPEAKING . just because you said it. Neither is your opponent's argument or sug- gcstion silly just because you said it was. You must make it clear by your statements. Don't confine yourself to the bare statement of a point you wish to make, extend it, elaborate it, develop it. Introduce your point, thcn show by discussion why it is true. A speaker must have enthusiasm. Use natural conversational man- ner. This imposes less strain on both the speaker and the au- dience. CONSERVATION in the broadest sense implies neither waste of product nor waste of the forces and conditions which make high pro- duction possible. Thcse forces are the environment under which the crop is grown and the inhcrcnt hereditary possibilities within tho DR. WILLIAM seed or seed material. MOOD “If he were here," "If I were you," etc. This strange idiom is found also in French, German, Latin, Greek. (b) In a present or past condi- tional clause, which implies un- certainty. “If that be the case I can un- derstand you." (Prescntfl) "If that were the case I didn't understand you." Note: When the conditional clause is affirmative and certain the vcrb is indicative. "If that is the case (and I believe it is) I can understand you." “lf that was the case (and I think it was) I caii understand you." (c) ln future conditional clause relating to a possible future fact; as, "If it rain I shall not go." Note. As the future is uncertain. the present subjunctive is naturally used in the hypothesis instcad of the indicative though the latter is often found. (d) In future conditional clauses, where the hypothesis and conse- quence is a mere conception of the mind, having no relation to pos- sible future fact; as, "lf he went (should go, or,were to go) away I should be grieved." (e) In a future concessive clause; as, "Though hand join in hand, the wicked shall not be unpun- ished." (f) In a clause expressing a future result or consequence; as, "l shall wait till he return." (g) In a clause expressing pur- pose; as. "I shall make no noise lest I disturb (or should disturb) you. (h) In a clause expressing s wish contrary to fact; as. "I wish he were here." "I wish he would come." - III. The principal clause in a conditional sentence iakcs sub- junctive form when it refers to what is future and contingent, or to what in the past is uncertain or denied. In such cases the auxil- iaries should and would are gonor- ally used. "lf he should come he would see." (future contingency.) "If he had come he would have seen." (Past implying denial.) SAUNDERS of hybirds. After years of patient and persistent experiments, ably continued by his son, Marquis wheat, now known the world over ivac produced. It met the necessary conditions. It was a contribution of tremendous importance to the science of agriculture for which Dr. Charles Saunders was knight- ed in 1934.

SUGGESTIVE APPROACH TO THE ALCOHOL PROBLEM or take up other llnes of work. We nlust keep in trim to do the job well. Habits are formed by constant practice. Fortunately. good habits are ss easy to develop as bad ones. Boys and girls may form many good habits today which will help them to shoot squarely. Sooner or later every ‘young person will meet a situation when a decision re- garding alcoholic drinks will have to be made. Before that time he should learn what facts are known about the effects of alcohol on the body and be prepared to answer for himself the question, "Will the habit of drinking prevept my, being constant master of myself and a ’ ‘ “ companion of oth- era?” Only when natural foods can- not be taken should alcohol be used and then under s physician's orders. : .
