Kfforts are belnf made in all civilized countries along different lines to avert such a disaster and to devise means of overcoming a situation created by the war. There have beeu food crisis in nearly every great war, and these have frequently given rise to new pro- cesses of suffii lent merit to be continued in peace times, as for example, Ihf manufacture of sugar from sugar beets, and the snbstilullou of vegetable for animal fata as in oleoniargsritie.

It Is not l much to !-:ay that the present wor war Is due to a difference of idea fostered by different systems of eii 1 cation. Great ns la the Importance of the public S(-bool In olil and well estab- lished countries, this itnport.r.i<-o is even ereater in the new lands which are being called upon to as.dniilale populations from the more congested countries. It is worthy ot note that In Western Canada, which may be cited as a case in point of a coiintrj which is called upon to assimilate a IKjpulation of many races. Some of the most strenuous political and consti- tutional fights have iiinged upon the systems of public ediieallon. These tights, however. w<;re not without their puriKis*', and it is out of thein has arisen a public school policy well calculated to meet the noeds of a new and rapidly growing country. In such a country the public school has to take on functions not usually associ- ated with It In the older and more densely settled communities. The prairie Hoboolhouae Is not lueroiy a centre of eduoatlon; It Is also the re- ligious and social centre ot tbe dis- trict.

To facilitate the latter. It may be noted that many country schoolhouses use removable desks j which the willing hands of the farm- ers' boys quickly dispose of whenever there is a dance In prosiiect. ! Another phase of community work ' Associated with the rural school which has been coming Into promin , ence during the last few years is the ; supply ot books to settlers In the dis- 1 trlct. This work Is eaeouraged and ! assisted by the central Department ot i Education, which provides catalogiies j of books suitable for such purposes, I the actual selection being left to the I teacher. The number of booke allot- ted to a school district 1e based oal the report of the inspector of schools. In the Province ot Alberta, although' this sch-iol library movement l» only lu its Infancy, no less than 110,000 hooks were supplied for this purpose last year, at a cost of some $30,000.00. Educationists of the province look forward to the time when every school dis- trict will be a library centre, giv- ing to the settlers the facllltiee now afforded to residents of cities and towns through their publi<> Hbrariea. The prosperity â- which has aliuost over- whelmed rural Alberta in the last two years, when farmers have b««n reap- j lug enormous crops and selling them at the highest ftgurea In history, promises to contribute still further to the Importance of the rural school as a social centre.
