There can be little doubt now that the war as far as Germany is concerned is nearly over. The Allies have made their greatest crossing of the Rhine. Enemy resistance even in his homeland is crumbling everywhere. Many strong defences have already been passed. The resumption of the great Russian offensive from the east is under way or about to start. The noose is tightening on the Reich from all sides. There is every indication now that the issue will be settled within the course of the next few weeks with victory for our side. Discounting any tendency to wishful thinking, this appears all but a certainty. The end of the European phase of the war may come any day now, possibly with dramatic suddenness. Efficiency and Fatigue . . . The arch-enemy of efficiency is fatigue, says Professor William James, eminent physchologist. It is not how much work you do that tires you but how you work. You can do more and I better work by keeping yourself from ' getting tired and one way of keeping, from getting tirecHs working rhythmically. Relaxation to prevent fatigue is quite as important for the mental and sedentary worker as it is for the person engaged in manual labor. Speaking of France . . ." Regardless of how we feel about French, all men have a special feeling fQr France. The Germans, so long envious of her in spite of their professed contempt, share this feeling. To many, France is as much a song as she is a country. Her years of darkness connot hide her light. Her vices, which include her politics, are only the dark flowers she has developed because of being over-civilized. They are the price she has had to pay for her high virtues, and for the delight and drama of her contrasts. To some of us, France is both Voltaire and Mistinguette,, Proust and her peasant Joan, Robespierre and Rabelais. She is a Jacobin wearing a faded court dress. She is at once the tarnished gilt of. her old palaces, and the liberty she lias bled fdr her barricades. She is as famous for her bourgeois, the sharpness of her shopkeepers, the liquid precision of her language, the stained glass in her churches, the loveliness of her boulevards, and the unreality of her governments during the tragic years of the hiatus. the bow of the ship was stand- jCarley float Dy the rescue ship, ing straight out of the water ana i He dislocated his knee and was we were afraid it would fall over j suffering from bunrs, on us.

C. Department of Education and, therefore, they must be qualified. He felt that such an attitude on the part of an Inspector did not tend to build up unity among the provinces of Canada, morale among the local staff, or respect of the pupils for their teachers. The specific adverse criticism of one teacher was most unethical. He could not see how such action as recommended by the Inspector could be considered educationally pro gressive. He could not see who would benefit but he did feel that the children would suffer. He also felt very strongly that this making of this report when two-thirds of the school year has passed ignored completely the rights of the pupils, aud their parents. These were surely entitled to be advised ln time as to how their. year's work would be evaluated. In the course of later discussion those present at the meeting were amazed that the matter had not been discussed with the principal before the recommendation had been made to the department. The sad lack of playground space was recognized by all but the Inspector's sug- eestlon that the rocky ridges at the back of the school be made into a' rock garden did not seem a solution to the problem and evidently did not get the slightest support from the par- mended by the Inspector.
