TEN of subways, in actual operation and
with projected extensions, much re.
sembles that of London in its wide
spread ramifications on both banks Of
the Seine, with a most elaborate sys-
tenn of transfers and low fares.
The first line OF the Paris metropol-
itan system was opened in 1900 with
46.6 miles of double track. It's success
was so marked that in June, 1901, the
city council adopted a resolution asking
the administration to plan an extension
so as to provide a complete system Of
rapid transit for the city. This syS-
TEN. as finally worked out, was adopt
ed by the city council in DecemDeTt
1907. For a single fare the passengeE
has a right to travel from any one
point on the entire system to any other
point Free transfers are allowed at
all crossings and functions. The city
OF Paris receives for the lease Of its
municipal subways 5 centimes q cent?
on each Is centime second class ticket
and on each 20 centime round trip
ticket, and 10 centImes on each first
class % centime ticket The a5ree-
men of 1898 provides that if the num-
Der of tickets sold exceeds 40. 600, 900
a year the payments Of the city on each
ticket sold in excess Of 14O,0O0sOO0 IS
increased according to a fixed ratio.
The subways of Paris, like those Of
New York, were built and owned b,
the city, and leased, equipped, and
operated by a private company. The
first general law governing the con-
struction of railroads in France pro-
vided for the construction of the road
bed at public expense and for equip
ment with TRACKS an6 rolling stock by
the operating company. subsequently
the policy of granting aid to new rail
roads through the municipal guarantee
Of a minimum profit became the rule.

stead OF the crOSler the mythical arrow
os borne before thee"
When Birds Choose Their Mates.
John Lydgate, an early English poet,
inscribed a poem or valentine in honor
of Catherine, wife of Henry V. which
begins: "Seynte Valentine OF custom
yeare by yeare" and alludes to the
English custom of choosing a valentine.
This idea, which seems to have pre-
vailed in early times in England, is
given as definition by Bailey. in 1921,
the first of the great English diction-
aries, which says: ION Valentines Day
Tin England about this time of year,
February, birds choose their mates,
and probably hence came the custom
of young men and maidens choosing
valentines, or special loving friends, on
that date, which Shakspere mentioned
in one of his songs" 1t was also a Gus
tom in England for young men and
women to meet together on the eve of
St. Valentines and inscribe names upon
slips of paper. Then they challenged
each other for gifts and presents. and
the first person seen on the following
day was supposed to be their valen-
tine. This is what Shakspere aliudes
to when he makes Ophella say: Good
morrow, tbs St Valentines Day all in
the morn below, and l. a maid, at your
window, to be your Valentine"
1t seems to have been a custom in
Scotland also to choose ones valentine,
if Sir Walter Scott is to be trusted in
his account Of the wooing of the Fair
Maid Of Perth and Hal of the Wynd in
the novel. The always amusing and
ubiquitous Pepys. in his diary, which
neglects nothing under the sun ap-
parently, mentions st. Valentines Day
and its customs in several places, AMI
gives an amusing account of his wife,
fearing to open her eyes on St Val
entine's Day while the painters and
decorators were at work in her room,
lest she should see one of these unsuit7
able persons first instead Of more
comely valentine. The genial Pepys
himself, Of course, had to call upon one
Of his friends on February IA, and en-
treat her to become his valentine, and
We viii hope that he sent suitable
gift to the lady chosen.
What ever the origin of the custom

THE only commentator teacher

If that is true, II Is a sad comment on
the attitude Of people toward the in

of the republic 1t is, no doubt, clos

In recent editorial the Montpelier

many sparsely settled communities
to pay attractive salaries to their
teachers. Financial limitations are
hard facts and not easy to overcome

Let the teachers know that the pat

community will pay teacher all it
can, and the patrons will let her
know that they are interested in her
work and progress, she will be very
Indifferent teacher If she does not
respond by doing her best.
We often laud the teaching profess

or eulogies, but such perfunctory
praise, which must in the nature Of
the case, be received IN psrfunctory
way, amounts to very little. But the
personal encouragement that is per-
sonally given will count for a great
deal, and it costs nothing. We want
wide-a-wake progressive teachers.
Let us remember that the spirit of
the teacher is in a measure the re-
flected spirit of the community.
