CANADA AND WAK
Th* possibility of Britaiu becom
ing 'evolved ia tho European wui
raises the serious question of ti» -•
part tho divisions of Empire will j
play. Tho Imperial question force.-,
itself suddenly to tho fore. The
dominions over-seas have been deb;1''
In tho naval question the last sev
several years, and many individuals
have maintained thero were no im
mediate dangers to tho remote di
visions.
Llko a thunder clap tho Servian
question touches vitally the status
or the world na.'ous, and tho dan
gers are traced quickly to every
branch of tho Empire. The German
warsnips patroling foreign w ate
are now looked on as a menace to
retuo'o British iuterests. It is
quickly brought home how unpro
tected is western Canada, and how
the kai-'er's war vessels on the
west coast of Mexico might eo::
northward and attack British Col
umbia ports and even interrupt the
tradu of Ciuaditn vessels into t!io
port supplying Klondike.
Canadians do not stand in doubt
as to their loya'tv to the Empire,
and 'f Britain calls fo- aid. Canada,
as today's dispatch intimates, will
contribute her share. At the same
time, Canada, Australia and other
regions will havo some duties at
l'omj producing supplies for the
mother country's main armies. ; nd
in defennding the shores of over
seas dominions.
If Britain becomes engaged in
tile European struggle, it is likely
tlie 1 est leas Asiatics will seek to
take advantage of the situation. It
would Ijo r.o surprise to s»'e the
Hindu agitators renew their effort
to i'orce their way into Canada, an J

This Is Century of
Child; Upon Its Care
Depends Happiness of
Future Generations
★★★★★★★★
Bu Dr. WOODS HUTCHINSON
EVERY child bom into the world i« entitled to food, clothing, shelter
and a good education. It happens so, however, that not cv rv
child is provided with these tiling, and it should THEREFORE
DEVOLVE UPON SOCIETY TO TAKE CAKE OF IT. There
conies a time in the development of the child when its mental hori ■ n
Teaches beyond the home. Then trie slate should step in and guide the
child in its growth.
THE COMPLEXITIES OF MODERN LIFE ARE FAR BEYOND THE
CONTROL OF ANY MOTHER, NO MATTER HOW CAPABLE AND INTEL
LIGENT SHE MAY BE, AND THE STATE. THROUGH A SPECIAL CORPS
OF TEACHERS AND TRAINERS. IS FAR MORE CAPABLE TO LEAD THE
CHILD. I DO NOT MEAN THAT THE CHILD SHOULD BE TAKEN FROM
THE MOTHER IN ANY CASE. THE BEST WAY WOULD BE TO TRAIN
MOTHERS HOW TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR CHILDREN AFTER THEY
ARE ABOVE THE AGE OF ELEMENTARY DEVELOPMENT. MOTHER
HOOD IS A GIFT WHICH AMOUNTS ALMOST TO GENIUS, AND NOT
EVERY WOMAN IS FOR IT.
We should give the child the croatest amount of freedom possible,
give it all the food it wants, all the sleep it desires and all the play it
yearns for. The rest of the time spend in instruction. Society is com
ing to realize that the child is a diminutive man and is entitled to the
same right of liberty every adult demands. I moan that amount of lib
erty compatible with the welfare of the individual and socictv as a whole
'UPON TIIE EDUCATION. TRAINING AND OPPORTUNI
TIES OF OUR CHILDREN DEPENDS TIIE ITAPPIXESS OF FU- i
TURE GENERATIONS. THIS IS TIIE CENTURY OF THE
CHILD.
Public Schools Best Place For Growth
of American Citizenship
By JOSEPH SWAIN of the National Educational Association
GIVEN a cultivated trained teacher of sound mind and body, who
g"«s to work at peace with God and man, the school will be the
best place in the world for the growth of the child in practical
righteousness and American citizenship.
NOT MUCH INSTRUCTION, EiTHER SECULAR OR RELIGIOUS, CAN
BE WITHOUT A WELL EQUIPPED TEACHER. WHOSE PERSONALITY,
LEARNING, MORAL AND RELIGIOUS LIFE APPEAL TO THOSE UNDER j
HER CARE. THE TEACHER CANNOT TEACH WHAT SHE DOES NOT !
KNOW AND CANNOT GIVE TO OTHERS THE RELIGIOUS LIFE WHICH
SHE DOES NOT POSSESS.
