" Ain’t they," said the old man brist- promotc thc cause of cducatioii in their four years of ofllcc than thc llihcrztls did in their twenty years oi' power. The teachers were unilcrpliid in those days, and the Liberals even took away their supplements. First- class teachers were almost as scarce as lien`s teeth. The schools were educating the boys off the farm,” "Well, what did the Conservatives do to remedy these conditions?" asked the boss in an ungunrded moment. " Well, I'm surprised at you‘re ask- ing that question. Doii't you know that the first year the Mathieson Gov- ernment was in office they so amend- ed the Schools Act that the salaries of teachers were increased to the extent of $20,000. This increase was effected by ,providing that whore the ‘rate- nayeri-i of a district voted a sum as a sllpplelncnt to the teachers salary the Govcrliincnt duplicated that sum up to 25 por cent. of the teachers statu- tory allowance. But that was not all they did. lu their second year of powcr it was filrther enacted that there bc paid to each teacher $2 a head for each child in average daily attendance for the year. This wise provision has added another $20,000 or more to the pay of the teachers. In that year also the Government undertook to pay a retiring allowance or pension of $150 to teachers com- pleting forty years of service."
