A number of schools of less importance have sprung up under the direction of Private individuals. One of these is, sense, ce-educational. Girls and boys attend, but do not recite together. The different mission schools have lately opened again, ofter the New Year. The many other schools Which are being started, while not affecting the numbers of the students, do affect the Personnel of both students and teachers. Some students who have a roving disposition, and care little about hard work, go away tamed lately filled with some more equally fo ty new fields, but their places are Promising material. Out, of the moly, a fair proportion stays. 'The young teachers who have been trained in' the Christian schools, and have in large measure been supported during their stay, begin to feel themselves restrained. Their needs are greater than formerly, and their wants greater than their needs. They say to themselves, this does not quite suit them, and that 1s feilly unbearable. And so they go out to battle with "the world, the flesh, and the devil," and only the strong hold true. Men are writing to-day of how to save those whom the Church has trained to the Church. Tt is well to write, it helps; but it has not yet solved the problem.
