Mr. Brown-in his opening rc- inarks. dwelt on the importance oi education and gave some interest- ing fiicts concerning the history of education in this ‘province, refer- ring at first to the salaries paid teachers and pointing out that in the early days direct taxation was as unpopular as it is today. He contended that there is an impression abroad that something better than the Education Act of 1887 is required. Last year $160,- 000 was spent on education. Many believe that we are not getting value for that expenditure. Mr.. Brown referred to the Educational lleik-ieiitium of last year. lic claimed that there was littli- or nothing sitiii in the press re- garding the referendum, and as a result protbnbly 90 per cent of tht people did not know about it, hence its defeat, ailtl consequently the Government is left in a peculiar ositioii.

The speaker dwclt upon the inducements being offered iii West- ern lCanada to teachers and the up parent lack of appreciation of our teachers at home and also the. lit- tle interest taken in many local- ities here in school matters. A real awakening of tho public conscien- ce was necessary. Co-opcrntion has proved itself n grand thing and no‘ where is it more needed than in the school. Meetings are held throughout the country having in viow the (betterment of our herds and poultry but this all-important miittci- of education of our child- ren is neglected. The workers in Tllflfilil‘ and brass may live to see their works crumble but teachers engaged in forming character are doing n work which will last for- ever. 'l‘lie speaker declared that the solution or the world's troii- bles today is true education by which the Iouth will understand all things in their nroper sphere. one realizing the rights of another. lliiis wiping out the cause of such things as Boishevism and social- lam and all becoming one hormon- ions whole. He concluded with a strong plea for better salaries for teachers which would mean better teachers and better scholars. Rev.
