j. A. o. is shut in. . Owing to
sad affection he is unable to par

the drill exercises. He must be
content with the solitude of his little
apartment where he employs much
of his time in composing verses for.
the family journal, the beauty of
which every reader is familiar. But
though his body is fettered, his fam
cies are free to wander and with his
sympathies join the Kangaroos in
their struggles for supremacy Even
during the week, when the prizes
are being distributed among the vic
tors, his loyalty does not waver,
though no doubt he longs for an OPP
portunity to utilize one of the extra
prizes SO generously distributed.
Now, if it was only a beauty contest
instead of drill exercise, Mr.. J. A.

This idea leads us to suggest, not
the adoption of such contest for

the less gifted members of the elect,
but simply that the next time the
Kangaroos line up for inspection,
Mr.. j. A. O. fly their colors from

to note his existence. Then, when
next the Kangaroos bask in the sun

ing in touch with the outside world
Speaking from a short, though
profitable experience with the cor
respondence school, I am inclined
to disagree with the opinions stated
above, and I believe that sue
schools offer the greatest advantages
to those who are DESTROYS Of improv-
ing their mind and securing more
complete knowledge Of some par
ticular trade or profession, no mat
tier where they are situated. I fur
Their believe that the amount Of ben
eft to be derived from one Of these
courses will be in proportion with
the effort expended by the student.
The correspondence school has
passed the experimental stage and
has established itself as an impor-
tant factor in our educational sys-
tenn. 1t is the medium through
which the poor but ambitious man
or woman may obtain the advan-
tages OF an expert training without
interfering with their daily occupa-
ton which may be their only means
of support. The success Of the cor
respondence school depends upon
the success Of the student. conse-
quently, the management of such
organizations have a personal inter-
est in every student enrolled. It
might be well to say, however, that
the interest on the part of the in
structor in charge is only maintained
when a corresponding interest is
manifest by t he student. They
spare no pains to help those who
show desire to advance, but are
quick to note lack of interest on
the students part and where this
interest cannot be readily revived
by encouragement and advice, are
prone to leave the student to his
own device. Owing to the fact that
real instructions are impossible and
the lessons furnished by the cores
pondence school are in printed form,
they are necessarily brief and lack
ing in many details. This. Of course
calls for greater efforts and perse-
verance on the part Of the student.
He must first thrash out the straws
IN order to obtain the wheat, and if
ne would secure a full yield, he
must thrash hard.
As to the local surroundings be-
ng adapt to the persuance Of the
correspondence school work, l can
only say, I know of no more favor
able conditions. This much, how
ever, the prospective student must
irst decide before taking up such
work, he must forego the pleasure
he newspapers afford. He must
lecide which is more important to
lin, to keep in touch with the out
ide world or devote his spare time
o acquiring knowledge which may
,e of assistance to him on his return
0 the world. If he decides on the
ormer, then it is best to give the
correspondence school wide birth.

work with determination to sue

an not but admit that the corre-
pondence school affords unusual
advantages to the unfortunates here.
