VICTORIA, B. C., Jan. 2S (by Asso. eiated Press) from Ot tawa and information received by pro- vincial authorities seemingly indicate that the proposal to settle the Queen Charlotte islands with former imperial soldiers have fallen through for the present, at least The plan was to organize farming and fishing colonies into Utopian settlements, with re- turned service men from all the Brit ish colonies. It is understood that the Great War Veterans Association frowned upon the idea, because, it was said, many of the soldiers anxious to settle on the island knew nothing about farming or fishing:

ALABAMA TO LEAD IN NEW SYSTEM OF
 ARMY RECRUITING
Recruiting Officers Discover Psychol- ogy of Joining the Army-Re- cruits Join In Groups,
 Records Show

Attention of the army recruiting offi- cials recently was called to the fact that enlistments in the army was generally in groups. In fact, records show that about S0 per cent of the men joining the army join in bodies of two or more from the same towns. No matter how small the place is, there are always several men to join together.
 An investigation was started and ques- tione asked all recruits revealed that most boys were not eager to face the army alone. and that they induce one or more of their friends to join with them. This has been going on to such an ex- tent, the recruiting officer think, un- til more than half of the regular army is made up of these small friendships.
 The discovery of the psychology of Joining the army by the Alabama off, cers win probably lead to an entirely new system of inducing men to join the army. The plan of going after two men together. instead of one. will be given a ry-out in the stations in Alabama. The results which will be ascertained within the next few weeks will prove or lis prove the theory that friendship is the emotion that brings most men to the army.

has the authority to issue bonds or warrants to the amount of 5000, 000, and up to the present time it was well within it's limitations.
 The defect in the bill passed on
 by the attorney general was held
 invalid because 1t was not headed
 by the enactinE clause, namely. "Bc
 it enacted by the Legislature of
 Alabama" as required by the con
 stitution. This clause the nttor-
 ney general declared was mandn-
 tory and it's absence rendered the
 entire bill invalid.
 The act of 1919, which was adverse ly ruled upon by the attorney general. was passed in the effort to aid coun- ties temporarily out of funds to carry on the work of tick eradication by the issuance of interest bearing warrants which was not provided for in the act of 1915" said MT. Gwn.
 While the issuance of warrants for road work was also included in the later act, Jefferson county, by virtue of it's property valuations, was exempt cd from it's provisions, so it's invalida- ton has no effect whatever on the warrants already issued by the county or those it might issue in the fu- ture"

COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM SUPERIOR Administration Loose and 1nadequate-Medical At
 tenti0n and Salaries

Jefferson county's school system is sn- perior in SC me respects to the school sys- tems of Ramsey county, Minnesota, and Cook county, Illinois, according to Miss Perna Robinson, secretary to DE, x. R. Baker. county superintendent of edu- cation. Mss Robinson has just returned from points in Minnesota and Illinois, where she has spent SC Tere@ weeks.
 While there she visited the county su- perintendents cd education of the Va rious counties, Being familiar with the system under which the Jefferson coun- ty schools are operated, she was very much interested in the systems of othec sections of the country.
 In speaking of the school systems, Miss Robinson said:
 'I visited the office of county superin- tendent of Ramsey county, Minnesota in which St Paul is situated and also the county superintendent of Cook county, Illinois. in which Chicago is situated, and which is noted for it's up-to-oat tv school systems.
 "I found the systems very dirferen~ from our own with, to my mind. the odds in favor of the Jefferson county plan.
 They are ahead of us in that they have medical inspection of ali scho 5i children and employ three county nurses. They also pay better salaries than we  for superannuated teachers. Their plans of supervision is very similar to ours, as they have both district supervision and $, ,spsrvlsors Of special subjects.
 "The county administration is very loose and inadequate as authority is vest ed in the townships and smaller districts with the result that some of the richer districts have excellent schools and pay high salaries, while the poorer districts are neglected The superintendent told me the spectacle is frequently seen ot teachers underbidding each other for sal arv in some of these better positions.
 There is no schedule of salaries anl buildings are not constructed under the auspices of the county. with the res..i that no expensive building piNsramn.s can be undertaken a"1 the buildings are not always of the best type. Superin' tendent Rife stated he believed the sys- tenn of having a county board was ideal, and they had endeavored to secure this plan for Minnesota, but had been unable to do so as yet. The duties of the su- perintendcnt under the Minnesota plan are very light as compared to our own system, while he is paid practically the same salary"

Judge Greene stated the ruling had no application to Jefferson county. from the fact that the bill referred to had a special clause excepting the county as follows.
 "ProvidinE that nothing in this
 act shall apply to counties having
 property the valuation of which
 exceeds one hundred million dol
 lars"
 He further stated that the county had ample authority to issue interest bearing warrants nQder the provisions of act providing for this purpose passed by the legislature of 1915.
 President Gwin pointed out that the exemption clause of the bill declared invalid exempted counties whose prop erty valuations were over one hundred million dollars. He states that Jeffer- son county's valuation is at the pres ent time $1T0.000.0 900. and by next year will reach s2oO,Ooo, ,oOO. It can be clearly seen, he said, that the status of the act declared invalid by the attorney general had no bearing on the local situation.
 MT. Gwin states that under the pro- visions of the act of 1915 the county
