It Is unnecessary to narrate what passed between them upon the occa­sion in question, but at the time tb« young Indy’s sister entered the room 1*> was In the act of folding the youn* lady to bis manly bosom.

Of coorso be desisted at once, as young men generally do under such circumstances, but Uo was not em­barrassed—not a bit

The young lady’s sister said. “Excuse me.*’ and started to leave the room, when bis resourceful mind began to work. felt that he ought to say something and say It right away.

“Don’t go," be said; “we’ve Just been measuring to see wbtcb one Is the taller."

She paused In the doorway and look­ed at them Intently.

"You’re both about the same bright* j she said quietly, “but sister Is muck the redder."

EDITORIAL NOTES

The resignation of the entire staff ^ paMic School teachers in the u«ir-by village of Taviiitook local­izes tho struggle over teachers' wage*. ThoinneroJreuntstancesnro not known bat the trustee board of thnt village bn-. alwitv* b«*n n strong, courageous one and the sec tion always endorse* their liberal expenditure*. Av-utuing that the teachers are satisfactory ones to the fcection in every other respect the question of salary should bo- come secondary. This applies to every school section

It is said that in the dairying sec- tion of East Zorra the rule is : “ first got your dairy-type cow, then build your farm around It to suite.*’ So with tho school. Build the school to suit the pupil. A poor teacher la dear ut any salary ; a good teacher is never over paid The certificate of qualification 1s n«t the real measure of a teacher's worth ; it is the ability to implant knowledge tn tho minds of the pupils, to reach tho depth of their awakening intel­lect to instil in them a lovoforhon- or and education, that counts, and the teacher who cun accomplish that can never bo fully paid in xnonojv'-T^n trustees are Justified in taxing ttye section heavily to re­tain such a teacher. Too often trus­tees are anxious only to keep down expenses, with iho result that com­petent teachers are constantly watching tho advertisements to see where they can bettor thcmsolves so that change* are constantly tak­ing place in the school* to tho great detriment of the scholars. Tho nation's children are its greatest

aseet and are its greatest respons­ibility. Nothing is too good for them. The price of their educa­tion is tho nation's best investment.

Dominion Auditor-General Mo- Ooug&U who for a quarter of a oen- ury past has been known as the watch-dog of the treasury has re­signed. There has for some timo past been friction between himself and the cabinet, and ho claims that tho recent changes in the law havo made it impossible for him to con soientioualy aafegard his work. In view of tho tremendous sums of money to passthrough his hands in connection with tho G .T.P. next year ho is unwilling to continne in office.

A war is on just now between thoBerlin oouncil and tho newspaper reporters. The papers have been printing something that tho conn cillors did not Hko and an unsne- OOttful attempt was mado to get tho reporter to apoligize. At pros- ont the press-men are receiving hnt scant courtesies at the Council mcotings.
