the matter up, numbers of parents
have spoken of the injury done to the
eyes of the children. 1t Is a very Sc
rous thing to have child lose his
schooling under any circumstances,

his eyes are injured by the defective

to The Star says:
81 wish to call your attention to the
wretched condition of the Primary
school. 1t appears that it is so poor

dren and teachers are jeopardizing
their eyesight every day they are
compelled to attend, and | would
state that my boys eyes have become
so bad that l have been obliged to
take him from school.
Inc lad is lO years OF age, ana get
ting along very nicely, and / can as
sure you l regret OBTAINING him from
school very much, at his early age.
Mine is not the first, or even the
tenth complaint, so it seems that it is
a matter worthy of the immediate at
tention of the Bostd of Education. In
fact it is matter that has been de-
layed too long already.
1T seems that what is needed is a
little more common, ordinary, horse
sense in building place for children
to put in few hours each day in
study and instruction, and not 80

The Swedes are coming to be the
main explorers of the world. Nansen
has succeeded in Arctic exploration,
as no other Arctic explorer ever did
before. Andree has braved the ter
rors of the balloon voyage, and may
or may not be heard from, and now,
DR.. Sven Hedin, another Swede, has
made great discoveries in the unex-
plored parts of Central Asia. The
main results of his three years and a
half among the deserts, has been the
settling of geographic controversy,
and the discovery of two buried ci-
ties, whose civilization antedates the
Mahommedan occupation, the archi
lecture being Buddhist. But one of
the most remarkable incidents of the
trip was a march through the desert,
when the water containers gave out,
and this intrepid man managed to
reach aid, after nine days, without
either food or water. In the annals of
any one lasting so long, and it shows
what tough fiber DR.. Hedin must be
made of. He says the difference be
tween the European and the Oriental
is that the former never loses heart,
while the Oriental, being fatalist,
accepts his fate without struggle.
