Slr,—I have followed with inter- cst the discussion re educational matters in this province since the destruction by fire of Prince of Wales College. I regret that more citizens do not think it worth while to take time to express their ideas.

High School work is a minimum standard as preparation for any specialization line. Such is the

I agree with former writers that grade eleven work should be taught in a number of our community schools. A distinct Normal course is a necessity. The fact that a student comes into possession of a. right to possess such, while completin, high school work has induced many to take up publicschooli b‘ _, as a. stepping stone to some other occu- patlon, very often to the disad- vantage of the public school pup- lls.

"Six thousand years," I said, be- cause of the idea of week com- pleteness contained in the phrase: “There remaineth therefore a rest (or Sabbath) to the people of God.”

A rest day or Sabbath is a day in which work ceases or neafly so. It is a day, at least wherein the putting out of hard labor is

lat a minimum. As I see it the

yworld is prepared for this seventh iday or Sabbath day. Self-interest ihas been urging this capitalistic world along at a goodly pace until now, "there are no worlds lel; to conque“ and in those numerous
