ECONOMY IN EDUCATION.
AIMS OF THE MINISTER. COUNTRY DISTRICT NEEDS. [BY TELEGRAPH. PRESS ASSOCIATION.] CHRISTCHURCH. Sunday. The Minister of Education, Hon. R. A. Wright, spoke at Hawarden on Saturday of the reproaches that had been levelled at him as pursuing a policy of too great economy. " Economy does not necessarily mean the cutting down of expenditure," said the Minister, " but the prevention of waste. Any economy I may practise is not aimed at lessening efficiency, but at avoiding any waste." Mr. Wright added that any money he could save his department by a policy of practical economy ho intended to spend on country schools and in improving the conditions for country teachers.
