the markets before they had really
begun to build on stable ground for the
great achievements OF the future.
No one seems to know Just what the
matter is, though the depression Is felt
generally. Is itthat the supply of the
products of industry exceeds the de-
mand and that labor, therefore, must
be Idle until the supply is exhausted?
or is 1t that agitation has killed the

FAMINE IN CHINA.

Reports received in New York are to
the effect that the people Of two prov
inces are suffering from famine. and
that about three millions are affected.
The government is trying to send re-
lief, and private persons are doing their
share but. as usual. such contributions
are inadequate and foreign aid is So
licited.
a Presbyterian missionary in China
describes the situation as follows:
I'VE arc passing through another
time OF famine here. The past years
have been marked by repeated floods.
and this year in both the spring and
fail crops have been an almost total
failure In large sections.
IA region thirty-three miles wide by
nearly sixty-seven miles long has been
swept by the worst flood within the
memory of man. The people lost every
thing they had The imperial govern
ment has voted 10000 taels for the
twelve devastated counties, but it Is a
mere drop in the bucket.
Taking China as q whole, this par
ticular district flooded is small one.
but there are also famine conditions
in other parts of China, and the i'm
perial government is in such straits
financially that 1t is very much to be
fenretl that adequate assistance cannot
be given.
at the best It will be only temporary
and Will not strike at the real difficul-
ty The people are desperate 1t Ia
hard to preach gospel of love to those
who are starving, or on the verge there
of, unless at the same time one can
help their physical need"

LABOR GOING BACK.

The movement of emigration is gen
orally accepted as true Indication of
the financial status OF the country.
When immigrants flock to our shores
prosperity Is With US; when they leave,
times are bad. This year II great num-
Der of laborers have left for the Old
countries. The departures for July
numbered al,51l and 22,3I5 for. August.
The total for the two months was near
~ two-thirds as large again as IT was
for the same period the year before.
The percentage Of increase was much
greater than that for immigrants adj
mitted.
1t has been asserted that the outflow
of labor has been greater this year than
any year since the last panic. From
Pittsburgh it is reported that since the
opening OF December, 10000 workers
from the great steel and iron district
have left that center because of slack
cned activity in the trader-many OF
them bound for Europe. Some say
the, increase in the departure Of labor
crs for Europe at this time Is due to
the usual Chrlr-:rlas movement to the
home land, but others attribute the
movement to the reduced activity Of
manufacture.
In 1907. following the panic, $4,000
aliens left the country, followed in the
first six months tf 1905 by 100000 more,
while only 2AS,0tO came in. In the
summer Of 1908, steeraso arrivals av-
ragged only $4,000 to 40 600 per month.

IMAGINATION.

The treatment given to the subject
~ imagination by DR. Cook of the llli-
nuis state Normal School yesterday be-
fore Utah teachers was Il refreshing
and suggestive exposition OF matters
somewhat well known to educators, but
quite generally overlooked by many
teachers in their work, and stu more
frequently ignored by certain. self
styled practical people. who often
insist that their children shall be
taught only facts, and not fancles.
DR.. Cook showed, In brief, that the
Imagination Is truly the most practic-
able of all tho powers OF mind-the
very queen, In fact, OF the mental
faculties. The cultivation OF the power
to imagine IS really the CULTIVATION OF
human power in its hroadest sense
Without this ability, no person can
make a success OF even the most ordln-
AIRY vocation. while all the highef o%-
ercises in which the human peins en-
cages. depend almost solely upon the
truthfulncss and range OF TINS iinpor-
tant faculty.

cannot read without the constant eN-
ercisc Of the imagining power was poth'

A UNIQUE SOUVENIR.

The Manitoba Free Pres Is in the
habit of sending out n Christmas SOU
vcnir. 1t has done so for the last ten
years. It's first souvenir was a minia-
ture sack OF wheat. Then game min
iature sack of pemmican. In 1904 the
souvenir was quill of n Canadian wild
goose, etc This year the Press sends
out n roll of printing paper with
little book describing paper making

great deal of Interesting statistics. the
reason given for sending out this me-
mento sis the pressing Importance to
this whole continent of tho question OF
pulrwood supply, as part of the wider
matter OF conservation of natural re-
sources, which is compelling the atten-
ton of the peoples and the governments
of this country and the United States
the outstanding fact in regard to pulp
wood being that the Dominion of Can

Among the statistics given are the fol-
lowing:
ut has been estimated by n Ger

of paper Of all sorts produced annually
In the whole world is ss,00o000 tons. and

ECONOMIC VALUE or EDUCATION


Edmund J, James, OF the University
of Illinois, in his address be-
fore the convention of the American
Economic association. at ST Louis,
spoke Of tho economic significance OF u
comprehensive system OF national edu-
cation, He defined these terms thus:
by national education | mean sys-
tenn of education so extensive, In its
territorial reach ms to bring Its facili-
ties and opportunities to every child of
the nation BY a comprehensive system
OF national education, | mean system
so detailed and 20 inclusive as to dis
cover, cali forth and train to the point
of highest efficiency, all the talents and
capacities of all the children of the ma
ton, BY economic significance OF such
q system, mean It's relation to the pro-
duction OF national wealth."
