-SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT.- On

Monday evening :'»th Inst., Mr. Maxim Gallant, Inspector addressed a meet- ing of the ratepayers of Abram’s Village school district. in the school house, on the subject of Agriculture instruction ln the schools and schooli gardens. Mr. ,Gallant in an eloquent discourse fully explained the new movement made by the department of Education in that line, and forcibly impressed on his heaters, the necess- ity In our schools for more enlight- ment in the principles of Agriculture and Nature Study. The Idea in hav- ing gardens either at school or at home under the directions of the scholars who can look for guidance in their work, either to their teacher of their par- ents, is to exercise the pupils in the practise of observation. The speaker also spoke on the sanitation of the school and referred to the great im- provement made iii that line by womcn's institutes. lie then explain- ed the requirements in connection with the home projects In order to be entitled to a bonus. He was followed by Mr. _Harry Darby who heartly agreed with all that had been said. Mr. Darby spoke on the advantages of gardening and stated that we can only learn by expcrlnientIng.whut can be successfully grown; no doubt the- ory goes far in directing a farmer in his work, but it is only by experience that we have found out that wc can grow wheat until a few years was con- sidered Impossible lo grow. Mr. Ste- phen M. Arsenault thought that a farmer could be fitiiugly coinparcd to a king. l`lie la"mei was in rc.\.li.t_v o. a king on his domain who enjoyed full despotisms. hence the noble occupa- tion. Mr. Arsenault was highly in fav- or of home projects. Mr. Aime D. Arsenault also spoke a good word in eurouragemcnt ofthe movement as did also Mr. Charles M. Arsenault. Mrs. Arcade Arscuault. being called to give her opinion, declared herself highly In favor of these home gardens and said she was ready to help her young ones In the Interprise. Mr. Joseph M. Gallant in supporting the suggestions of the Inspector. said that he thought tlte yard was perhaps too small as It is now actually to small for a playground, an hinted that an attempt to increase the size of the yard to what It should be might meet with very little difficulty. A few remarks were also made on Educa- tion In general; parents were caution- ed to fully understand the meaning of the word "Education" inasmuch that it means io training of it pupil, the formation of his character, more so than thc amount of knowledge ac- quired in books. The meeting on the whole was a good success, and was presided over by Mr. Joseph L. Gal- lant who had the pleasant duly of tendering to Inspector Gallant the unanimous vote of thanks of the meeting for his valuable lecture. Mr. Gallant in ti few well chosen words accepted the vote of thanks. A short programme of recitals was rendered by ilin pupils throughout the meeting.

We are in the trenches now but will be going back to Blllets tomorrow night. I don't know where our home will be this time but we had it very good barn to sleep in last time. We have very good trenches hero. Good and deep and very little mud. I am writing this by the llre and every few minutes I get a pull' of smoke that near blinds me.
