HIGH SCHOOL Education Week focusses attention on the problems and ach- ievements of education generally. From time to time. educa- tion comes under fire on the grounds that the present system is not providing enough guidance for living. that too often “instruc- tion is confused with education." We doubt if more money for education is the whole answer to the problem: it is questionable if another hundred million dollars pumped into education in this province would raise by even one per cent the intellectual and moral level of our young people. partcularly of those from defic- ient homes. Perhaps continuous curriculum studies â€" in which the secondary school teachers of this province are earnestly and continually engaged -â€" will provide the answer. Of one thing. however, we are certain: the interest that parents and the general public take in education will stimulate the efforts of both teach- ers a_nd students to attain their highest goals. The 0.S.S.T.F. Regional Conference:â€" Important Preliminary to Education Wk. This year’s conference was larger than any held previously. More than 800 high school teachers of the large district surround- ing Toronto took part in an all-day meetl‘ng in one or both of the schools. In each of twenty odd sections ,forty to fifty teachers spent the day discussing courses, books. methods. examinations, and problems of the high-school student. Schedules of related subjects were so arranged that it was possible for a teacher to participate in discussions of the different subjects he taught. A large book display was set up in the gymnasium of Etobi- coke Collegiate to acquaint teachers with new publications on the various subjects of the secondary school curriculum. The teachers of the Richmond Hill District High School at- tended on Thursday, February 25, a Regional Curriculum Con- ference at two schools: the Etobicoke Collegiate Institute and the George Harvey Technical School. This annual conference. con- ducted by the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation. is designed to cover every subject of the curriculum. and is an im- portant feature of the in-service training programme of second‘ ary school teachers. The high school courses. which are continuously being ex- amined and revised are designed to give the student a fund of knowledge which will help him to earn a living. and what is more important, a training for living a full life. The recent Cur- riculum Conference held in this district marks another step in therealization of these aims. Parents' Night at school is something akin to the first en- counter between in-laws and the prospective son-in-law. At last the parents see in the flesh that personage which. for better or for worse, occupies a good deal of their child’s attention. Like some in-laws, the parents may have their earlier suspicions confirmed, (What does she see in him?) Or perhaps. with stoic resignation. both parents and the in-laws may say, “What can you expect from her now?" Or perhaps with a sprightly, “Things are fine". parents go home somewhat more relieved about the im- mediate future of their child. :eed Victor Draper Oak Ridges Ontario TU. 4-1061 EM. 8-9559 SAME DAY SERVICE OVERHAUL ENGINE ADD NEW POWER!

Balance of Industry , In an effort to bring about a proper balance of housing and industry in the township, Coun- cil has deemed it desirable to in- dicate as an industrial section the area south of No. 7 Highway and west of the CNR tracks at Concord. Feeling that the propos- ed plan to industrialize so large an area would not likely meet the approval of adjoining muni- cipalities, the discussion was centred around the point as to whether .a 1,000 acre block bounded by No. 7 highway, Keele St., Steeles Ave. and Jane St. should remain agricultural area for the present time or whether instead the section west of the Barrie Highway to the CPR tracks at Humber Summit should be left as farming district. Ratepayers Reluctant The property owners seemed reluctant to voice their opinion at the meeting, preferring no doubt to give the matter further thought. It is expected that let- ters from Council requesting their opinion will be sent to them at an early date. - (Continued from page 1) "Has anyone ever enquired to see what sort of discount they could give us on large quanti- ties?’ replied Mr. Sayers. Property Trustee Dean advised the Board that Dr. Douglas Tanner, chair- man of the Markham township Planning Board has suggested that the High. School Building Committee and representatives of the Farmers’ Market meet with the Planning Board to discuss a northern entrance to the High School property between Elgin and Clarke Sts. in Thornhill over property owned by the Farmers’ Market. It is expected that this meeting will be held early in April. Principal’s Report In his report, Principal A. S. Elson said attendance during Feb- ruary was steady at slightly over 95 per cent. In‘connection with the Night School, an Open House will be held on March 25. Mr .Elson asked if the Board wished the school reports to be mailed as in thepast in view of rising postage costs. He said the postage costs $75 to $100 annu ally. The Board felt it would be wise to continue mailing school reports. Municipal Board Queries School Expenditure In its letter to Markham Coun- cil the Board. referring to the fact that it had received notifica- tion of fina! approval by the Department of Education of an addition to Richvale School, stat- ed: "As the Board does not ap- pear to have received an appli- cation for approval of this ex- penditure, we would draw your attention to the fact that under the provisions of Section 67 of the Ontario Municipal Board Act no undertaking may he proceeded with, no contract accepted. or construction commenced until the Under the terms of the Mun- icipal Board Act, any anticipated capital expenditure by either a school board or municipality most first be sanctioned by the Muni- cipal Board. Refers To Section On the strength of a letter received from the Ontario Municipal Board, Markham Township Council will shortly request Mr. K. Richan, the chairman of the Board of Trus- tees of School Area No. 1, Markham and Vaughan, to meet with them regarding an expenditure of $25,000 for an addition to the Richvale School. In its letter to Council, read at Monday night’s meeting, the Municipal Board pointed out that it had received no application for approval of this amount. High Sch. Architect The York County Hospital, Newmarket, shown above is officially a 52 bed hospital, but it generally has as many as 80 patients. The Nursery built to accommodate 12 babies is usually over-crowded with as many as 20 babies or more being cared for at a time. Pla‘ns call for an extension to the present buildings to increase the accommodation to 102 beds. A general canvas to raise the $600,000. needed for this extension will be carried out during the first two weeks in May. York County Hospital THE TELEGRAM DAILY When contacted by this re- porter at time of writing, Mr. Richan made the following state- ment. “The Municipal Board is not required to give its approval of this expenditure as there is no issue of debentures. The improve- ments at Richvale were all paid for out of current funds." approval of this Board has been obtained." After some discussion the members decided to ask Chair- man Richan to meet with Coun- cil to explain the situation and give a breakdown of this year’s budget figures. Chairman Issues Statement In referring to the Board's let- ter, Reeve A. LeMasurier stated, “The Board is simply bringing to our attention the fact that some- where along the line a capital expenditure has been made with- out their approval. If these im- provements have been paid for out of current revenue, instead of through a debenture issue, I wonder if the school board may have to alter its proposed budget. Want Breakdown of Budget The expenditure in question covered the following additions to the "present school building: teachers' room, lavatories, canopy, plumbing. A similar letfer was forwarded to Vaughan Township which is the other municipality forming the school area.
