On the recommendation of an expensive commission, the British Columbia school authorities are planning changes in the public school Bystem with the 'object of better adapting the education of the young people to the life on which they are to embark after they leave school. But after all the system avails little. It is the spirit of the authorities and the teachers that counts most. 4 Some time ago a move in the direction of preventing the break between what are known as the public schools and the high schools by grading regularly from the day the child is admitted to the , public school to the day it leaves the high school. All are part of : the public school system and there is no natural break. It is purely artificial, created largely oy tne cnange in name oi me scnooi anu the separate organization with Bomewhat different methods tf instruction. The first group of grades are known commonly as public school grades and the higher grades are high school grades. Pos sibly the best way to get rid of the gap would be to have all in one school under one supervising principal and with no more difficulty in passing from Grade 8 to Grade 9 than there would be in passing from Grade 2 to Grade 3. However, the powers have decreed that the method to be carried out is to have a middle school, which it is to be supposed includes the appointment of another principal and the institution of another set of official examinations. Unite all the schools and you get rid of the official examinations and the fiction that there is something, different about a high school from a public school. Froebel's idea was that the kindergarten methods should be carried through all the grades from the primary to the university graduation and many educationists are of the same opinion but it is difficult to overcome official prejudice.

If developments continue, as at prescht'we shall soon be asking for two trains' daily instead'of jast a daily train service on this line. DEVELOPMENTS ARE COMING FAST. A fine new tourist hotel has been planned for this city and is likely to be built. Plans are being prepared for the new sawmill at Seal Cove. The elevator is in operation and just now is full of wheat. There is a new stevedoring company incorporated at this port this week. A big syndicate expects to build a thirty million dollar paper mill near Prince George; mining is on the up-grade with the exception of silver which is depressed a little just now owing to the slump in price of the metal, Everything points to progress in Prince Rupert and neighborhood. The port is making good and the neighborhood is developing. As Sir Henry Thornton said, "the crevices are filling up."

The Queen writes: How dare I approach the tremendous subject of Ood) The name of Ood Is the same s gond. Ood Is the un changeable ever flowing fountain of good. The essence of all good. Ood created all things. Oul of him. I llow all things. Nothing can exist without Ood. Ood Is the source of the beginning and the end. We would not . be were there no Ood. In fact, we are ! part of Ood as sre the stars, the sea, the mountains, the trees, the beasts, the stones of the field. All come from end return to Cod to that which always was and always will be.

Thus each of us has a spark of Ood within us. It belongs to Ood. It Is Cod. Has but one craving to return to Ood. This life Is given us so that we may gradually overcome what Is of the fleL and return to God to that fount whence all Is sprung. Yet Ood, for all that tte turn from him live in us always. lie does not give us up. He Is part of us and we are part of him. Our conscience Is bis voice that lives within us eternally telling us lr we are doing right or wrong. Just understand this one stupendous verity, that we are part of Ood and Ood Is part of us and all becomes simple and clear for evermore. . J. L. B. riXANlIMl CIVIC I'M'KHTAKI.NGS Editor Dally News Referring to your editorial of Nov. 3. I consider it my duty to the citizens and In fairness to my predecessors and the departments envolved, to place before you the financial position of "Util ities." Your statements were misleading, not only to residents of Prince Rupert, but to outside firms who are financially Interested. The Insinuation that we have something to hush up, and the term "frenzied finance," I consider deterl- mental to the City's Interest In general and the Utilities mentioned In The following is taken from the cer tified Financial Report for the year ending Dec. 1, 1923, page 7: ffl Revenue Accounts of City Ctllltlen: Electric tight Dept. surplus I10.D88.71 Telephone Dept., Surplus.,..

Turn to the Operating statements on psges 10. 17, and 19, investigate these statements and we shall find out If utilities are operating at a profit or loss. If the plants, machinery and equipment are being maintained, and If provision Is being made for Interest and redemption charges. LK1IIT AXI TELEPHONE perusal of the pases referred to will prove that every Item has- received pro- jper consideration and attention. Maintenance work has been carried out, thus eliminating the possolllty of mpover-Ishlng the plant for the benefit of sur plus. Interest and redemption charges have been paid. Some of the utilities are returning to general revenue, monies borrowed for extensions, and, In the case of the light department paying a tax of 3 on gross earnings which j amounted to approximately three thou-! sand dollars In 192S. The above remarks apply particularly to he light and telephone departments. Turning to the water department It likewise appears that maintenance, Interest and redemption charges hav been taken into consideration. This statement, however, shows a deficit of $7,000.00 on operation. Keeping In mind that we have a trunk water system capable of supplying a population of some 40,000, or about 4 times our present population, the reason for this de- i THE DAILY NEWS Saturday Melt may be 'explained. MIOKT HV SI.O0O - On looking over this statement we find that our revenue alone during 1925 fell short of covering the Interest and redemption charges by some 14.000. This deficit might be eliminated by any of the following methods; absorbing the surplus of the other utilities, or raising the .rtes, or raising the tax levy. The Utter method has been adopted In the past. When one takes Into consideration the reasons for adopting this method, no exception ran or should be taken. A proortlon o f the fixed charges might be allated to taxes' and paid by property owners as our water system was orglnally prepared with the Idea of having at all times adequate fire protection. From this point of view, It would be unfair and detrimental to the City's interest either to raise the rates of the water department, or to place the rates of the light and telephone departments on a higher level and create a surplus to compensate the 4nni-Mn fts ta ha mttvKw ta tl be a special collection fori"""" 7 " ' CITY !Mi:Tr.!r: On page 10 Is shown a "Statement of the Authorized Indebtedness of the City."
