Riiwo Importantquestions Dire At Present...
riiWO importantquestions dire at present J- under discussion ^ in educational circles . One is the subject of commercial education ;
the other is a proposal for , the registration of teachersso as to place them on an equal
footing with , oth ^ r professions . n To speak of the latter proposal would be altogether out of our
province ; but it is to be hoped that the manifold difficulties in the way of registration may
be overcome in such a manner as to prove satisfactory to all concerned . - .
C _ •** ommercia ¦¦ mm l educat ion on . the m other » m ¦ hand m m is a subject of great ^ hv impor , tance to the book ,
trade , especia * r lly in the form it has now assumed . In so far as it refers to the early
mental training of what are called the distributing classes—that is to say , merchants ,
clerks , travellers , buyers and sellers , warehousemen , and so forth—the subject is not .
new , for many enterprising pedagogues havja gathered fair incomes from establishments
designated as commercial academies or commercial schools . But a new departure ^ k is now
visible . The old order of work does not seem to have answered its purpose ¦ .
Commercial education is no longer * to be adventurous , but is to be established as part and
parcel of our national system , with preliminary and collegiate training . Such , we are
informed , is one of the first results of the creation of the Imperia mm l Institute , rin
connection with which Mr . E . A . Grattan , British Consul-General at Antwerp , has prepared a
report addressed to Lord Salisbury detailing the work accomplished by . the Belgian
Institut Supe ' rieur de Commerce . When taken up in this way , un ^ ler the ,
encouragement of Chambers of Commerce and other directing organisations , so as to become

" -. ' t ' of the country prepared for the forward move
ment ? Judging from tlie advertisements which appear in this number of the Publishers '
Circular 9 we are inclined to think that books already in existence will be found to'meet the first demand , and in all probability even an
extension of the demand . But with extension new books as well as new methods must be .. " . I- ? ' ... ' ¦ ' X . " \
sought for , and even anticipated . In a great mercantile and manufacturing" country such as
England , once a beginning is effected , it will be impossible to stand idle in regard to
practical ' commercial education . Modern languages must take ax foremost placebut
other branches of study are sure to be broug , ht to the front . The histories of great industries ,
the seats of great markets , the modes of transit by jsea and land , will all come forward
as integral parts of commercial tuition for rising ^^ yout mr h . —
Publishers , seem to have been as well prepared for tlus movement as they were when
manuals for technical education were called for . Much , however , has yet to be done . „ We
look forward with interest to the codifying of a regular system of commercial education
which will take a place for itself among our , national institutions , and along with classical
and technical education teach our young men what is best for themselves and for the nation
at large .
