What appeavs to your correspond ent as a wise proposition is the sug gestion that a part of the large school grounds be cut into lots and sold and the money put towards building a school house. The lots at the rear of the present school building face the new street which Is being opened up to Townville street, and could be ?. Isposed of without interfering with the grounds used for school purposes. The above plan is worth looking Into, and we are prepared to encourage any plans whereby our school accommodations can be im proved upon. We hea d it said a few days ago that "when it comes to bluster and blow Seneca is there, but when it comes to down right 'get up and get' Seneca is not tnere," and when we look at our smaller Bister towns which have splendid new school buildings and other like signs of progress we are Just a little bit afraid there's 'something in this.

In our last communication to The Courier we had: "Mr. and Mrs. Acres have been stopping for a few weeks at Chick Springs, Flat Rock, Sky land," etc. Last week we received an anqnymous card, which rqad thus: "Don't never say 'stopping' at a place; always say 'staying." "Hal ha!" We have no Idea who the writer of this card 1B, br' evidently he or she is a very dear iriend who has our Interest at heart, for no one but a friend would write anonymous letters or cards. Now the only way of replyive to such is through the cpl-. umns of a newspaper, so in reply we would s?y if the writer of this card meant to suggest a discontinuation of the use of the word "stopping," he or she should have omitted the word "Don't," n's two negatives in the same sentence are equivalent to an affirma tive. Now, If we could not gramati cally construct a sentence of only ten words we would be very careful how we crltlclz* the composition of others. Besides, the word "stopping" is quite s correct when we speak of persona' boarding for a short while at hotels, et cetera. ^'Flrst cast the beam out of thine oWn eye, and then thou canst see clearly to cast the mote out of thy brother's eye."
