C. O'Neill BECAUSE HE VAS REGARDED by acclama-. M3oh as one of the best teachers it has been the good fortune of Prince Ruper schools-to have ever had, we had hoped when W. W.C. O'Neill resigned recently as principal of Booth Memorial School that he would carry on with the teaching staff, thereby permitting his valuable services to be retained in this city. However, he has now advised the board that he has been offered an appoint-rant elsewhere and has, accordingly, been granted his release. To replace him will be another problem for a board already perplexed with the filling of vacancies. First, a vice-principal at Borden Street School, later principal there and then principal at the High chobl, Mr. O'Neill served in the schools of this cuv aor many years iaiunuiiy ana well, uiet and f 'linn n,iitni inn -!.. . . i. 1 J ' 1 "o' iuwaya earnest aim conscientious, a fmanTtjf convictions too "his interest was alwavs rhp :; claroom and the-constant concern his pupils.

A BASELESS WORLD MRS. MARGARET SANGER SLEE suggests complete birth control as a solution of the economic problem of the postwar world, Mrs. Sle is an American, presumably ia widow, in her early sixities.and has had three children of her own. She has been advocating birth control for many years in the United States and is. reported to be going to Britain and Europe to tell the people over there all their problems would be solved if they ceaseu 10 nave any more children tor the next ten 'years. Such a "slaughter" of the great unborn would undoutedly cut down immensely theifood ahdother bills connected with the birth and raising of children. Ten' years of a babeless world would dlsp save a lot of money on, education, and hy the end of that period all the lower school grades would be closed. Jn.tliat world there would be "no infant crying in this night," "no children run to lisp their sires return7' -at the end of the day, and no "children playing iih the streets thereof." The world would then be like the town of Hame-lin after the Pied Piper had lured the children with his enchantment into an' opening in the mountain -side,. leaving behind a lone lame boy who sadly complained: "It's dull in our town since mv playmates leTt."" It would be a dull town indeed that had no children. Home and family life would cease to exist alth.qugh many young married couples in these jlays seem to think that children are not necessary tohome life. But this may be largely due :to restrictions of modern apartments where landlords, .and many tenants, regard children as a nuisance. Perhaps they are a nuisance under such confined .conditionsand the youngsters probably regard Such conditions as a nuisance. So far as the big cities are concerned, apartment life and the shortage of housing have already imposed upon us a rigid system of birth.control. Move-over, the five-room bungalow puts a definite limit to the size of the average-family. The one-child family is quite common, and it always reminds one of a hen with one chick. The large families of two gen--erations ago in many .instances imposed an un-. bearable burden on mothers. But the mother of one child often suffers more anxiety, over the one than the old'fashioned mother suffered over a dozen.This intense anxiety may be attributed to the 'fear of losing the sole Object of mother love. But the mother instinct is strong in mostwomen and it suffers from frustration when its exercise is limited. That may explain why so many mothers of large families'have been lmppy and "easy-going," and why their off-sprirtgJare usually more self-reliant. The idea ofbirth control isnot aimodern. one. lit was practised in many primitive societies and in ancient civilization. .Birth control may have been-responsible for the decline and fall of Greece and Rome, and of, highly cultured races which appeared and disappeared unaccountably in various parts of South America. Birth control has been condemned as inform of race suicide, and.if the people., of North America were to follow Mrs. Slee's advice their civilization would .pass into oblivion along with that of the ancient Mayas of Yucatan.
