but they are determined that their children will be given a better education so that they will be able to understand these problems better.\u201cWe must have these larger units of school administration, or rural education will not be able to keep up with these rapids strides.Only through them can there be an equalization of valuations, the possibility\u2019 of establishing teachers\u2019 salary\u2019 scales, of meeting the many problems that demand action.Dr.Rothney declared that today, as during the past, he is opposed to the idea of permissive legislation for larger units, because it will merely postpone their establishment.In three different countries where he has addressed meetings, some one has risen to suggest, he said, that the idea be tried in one country first; but alas, when the suggestion is made that the home country be chosen, the.reply comes, \u2019Oh no, try it elsewhere first.We\u2019d like to see how it will work.\u201d \u201cBut it has been tried elsewhere,\u2019\u2019 the speaker added emphatically.\u201cFor 25 years, we have watched it experimented with and adopted in Britain, in France, in the United States, throughout some parts of Canada.Alberta has larger units now.Manitoba some years ago set up two as a trial; today they have no more than the two.For some reason or other, people do not voluntarily extend the larger unit, and yet once they have its benefit, they wouldn\u2019t be without it.\u201d F'or this reason, Dr.Rothney urged that the legislation be made for the Province as a whole, from the outset.ISLAND BROOK Masquerade Dance, Town Hall, Wed., Oct.29th.Prizes for dancing.V I C T O R Y TE A ! j Bring your friends to St.Andrew\u2019* I Church Hall on Wed., Oct.29 for a Victory Tea.I The Proceeds: To buy gifts for the I boys Overseas.(The time: From 3 to 6 p.m.(The Hostesses: Mrs.W.Sjolander ' and Mrs.G.MacRae.ed at Sherbrooke the University of Lennoxville, enlix pletin.g his couth sity.ID- i School nml Bi ¦'hop\u2019s College, in-r before comat the Univer- G-MEN\u2019S FRIEND?CAVE CONCERT !
