THOUGHTS FOR THE TIMES.
Sound Education. The appetite for knowledge should bo allowed to grow with what it feeds on, and (here are not wanting signs to prove I lull food of the right quality is becoming available. It. remains for those who have the power to see that it is utilised. The study of the things that happenduily ; fhe, reading of the over-wonderful book of nature; .such arc the lines on which our educational system mayjidvanee. There are no truer words than those of Stevenson : The world is so full of a number of things ; I’m sure we should all he as happy as kings ; and if the opening mind of the child were directed more to a study ol the world as we are finding it, and to Devalue of character as the beginning and end of knowledge, all would be well.
