Seated about the hospitable ingle nook In the reading room of the Hotel Vancouver last evening were a number of gentlemen who, among other mailers, discussed the origin of the name of Lulu island.

Quoth one of the party: "It was called after an Indian chief whose name was "I'll wager you five dollars that you are wrong, said another of the group. "There never was a Siwash named Lulu." "Well," relumed the other, "I'm not a betting man, but I've always under Mood that the name was Indian. An old settler told me it "It's nothing of the surt," said the Interrupter. "It's English pure English and it was selected by Col. Moody." The rest of the parly became interested i) nd insisted upon being told nil about the naming of the islaud.

At no time In the history of British Columbia l.iu there been so much real snd living attention paid to 'tilings with roots." the only things on earth not to be obtained ready made, as Csrlyle criml.v reminds his readers. The demand flowers Is large and increasing and there re times when good rr or a "sound'' chrysanthemum cannot be had in the slops. If is a fact that our I.pM cut fli ers come from Victoria. They are bio igl across the Gulf by every steam and sol'l at prices that must be n.iiner.'itive or they would not be I npht here. Why similar results 082 he obtained in or about Vancouver may be susceptible of satisfactory cx I hrntioii; but no reason has ever been lidvnn' ed except that the climate of the lower mainland is too moist.

On the other hand it is urged that the climate of Victoria is too windy to ailmit of the production of a high grade of flowers In the open air, and as for tomatoes, peaches or melons, which thrive on the ainland, they can scarcely be raised al in near Victoria because uf the cool atmosphere. These are theories which might, by the exercise of a little common sense ami careful experiment and study in cultivation be entirely dissipated. We only deal with (ings they nre, lesving the remedy to those who are versed in such matters. Hut before the can be located and remedy found means must be adopted for the assembling at Vancouver each year of specimens of onr fruits and flowers to attract the public anr" sharpen the sight and interest of those who are actively engaged either for love or profit in living close to Nature. What is the remedy? We have all the material at baud for the annual exhibition of flowers and fruits and do not hold one.

Why? Other provinces and cities are alive and ftir rmg and Pt to shame. Iran Hole tells us of the wonderful enthusiasm shown in Knglund in the growing of roses and other choice flowers by Kng lishmen and women und of the good results that have come therefrom. Here we are inclined to lean on tin government for active assistance when we Should lean on ourselves. We want special Totes and free advertising in the pa jers ami extraordinaiy exertions displayed by the "other fellow." Instead of calling a meeting and making an Imr tiniltural and fruit society live and thrive by individual interest itiid initiative we must, as a community, be pushed by the government here, and Ihe press there and the seedsmen and nurserymen somewhere else. It is time that we got rid of the habit of looking for leaning posts and learned to stand upright.

The lnn.OOO club was a sreat public movement Ihe "greatest ever" in British Columbia. It was taken hold of in a spirit of popular enthusiasm and pushed on to successful issue. Why should not a movement for the improvement of our flowers anil fruits be taken up und nn exhibition arranged for next year? Tenple nre pouring into the province by hundreds. They are looking for places on which to locate. Should not active means be taken to show them what the country is capable of doing? Why should not the successful flower and fruit growers do a little missionary work and lay the foundation now fur an exhibition next year that would open the eyes of Canada and the old country to what we can do ne Irj?

The derision of the privy council, which requires that teachers iu Ontario separate schools kIiuII he disqualified as such unless tii pass the regular examinations and become regularly certificated, is revolutionary, for it throws the Catholic teaching synem of the province Into disorder.

The prime consideration is the efficiency of 'the teaching staff in the schools. The privy council decides that if the state is to have any responsibility the rights of children to a sound education must be paramount, save over religious teaching. Within a reasonable time the province must take advantage of the judgment to make the necessary changes ami prepare the schools for a mora efficient teaching staff.
