The Greek Puzzle,

Bot a few days ago the Greek statesman, Venizelos, was the man of the hour in the complstest Bengo. For five months he went into voluntary exile, to be 'even- tually recalled with enthusiastic ananimity, to the premiership which he had held with honour for several years before. The paychological moment has arrived and Venizelos is eat again and a new Cabinet of the King's seeking holds the power. What does it all mean? A steady steam of propo- sitions dowed to Bucharest, Sofia and Athens from the Teutons on one side and the Entente Powers on the other, all striving to in. daos the Governments sented in the three capitals to abandon their policy of hesitation and to adopt one of definite sotion. The Can it dice have been cast. mean that Germany has won the first throw? Much dependa on the decision of Greece-not the defeat of the Allise, but the prulongation of the war and the secrifice of thrusends of lives.

It is easy to talk of compelling to attend school, but when in many households children of six, or seven less, have to take their bare in breadwinning, there will always be a percentage who must necessarily remain outside the educational field. But in there old-type schools there is a large supply of pupils ready to hand, and the premises (such as there are) are also in existence-all that is needed is to revise the earrisalam. Even this has been done, over and over again, on paper all that remains to be done is to compel those who are still rank- ing schools on the methods of centuries ago either to adopt the new or to give place to someone who can. It cannot be sufficient- ly emphasized that Chins's first- and greatest educational need is to teach as many as possible of her children the rudimentary arts of reading and writing-the elaborate specialized curricula can come later; it is therefore lamentable to see still existing so many schools where children are wasting their time over the old methods, and to see so much good educational material turned to little account.

Topics of the Hour.

Much will depend during the next few days on the attitude of Roumanis, and on whether the people of Greece Bre to allow themselves to be dominated by the personal inclinations of the figure-heads that at present occupy a position of power given them by the people who, if they will, may take it away again.

Everything points to the Balkans being the venue of terrible events during the next few weeks. The fate of Tarkey and of all the Balkan States is in the balance, The sword of Damcoles appeara to be hanging over the head of the Greek king, and it will not be well for him if he stands in the path of the vast majority of the Greeks and, contrary to the enlightened spirit that has almost invariably guided the destinies of that ancient nation, assist directly

STRAUSS WAR SYMPHONY.

Doubtful Compilance with

Imperial Request.. Amaterdam, August 30.-The German papera' announce that Richard Strauss bas been invited by the Imperial Headquartera in Poland to supply an inspired so- called symphony dealing with

the war,

It is not known whether the composer will accept the invits- tion, as he is known to have professed horror at the war and that he is unable to derive ins piration therefrom. Straum also related to sign the manifesto of the German intellotusle glorify- ing the war.
