Parent Education .Group Mr. Simonson told the audi- ence of the great research and money which Sears Roebuck has invested in their new encyclo- pedia. They have spent four mil- lion dollars and it will be at least two years in the making. A survey was made as to the type of books most popular with chil- dren and the result was mystery stories, however it was also as- certained that to children, mys- tery may be many things from fairy tales to biographies, as long as they have interesting books. Miss Armstrong was asked about the influence of television in regards to children’s reading habits. She feels that in many cases the child’s interest in books has been stimulated .by programmes they have seen. The library is very often asked for books which have been discussed on TV. Mr. Burgess, the first speaker, brought out- the importance of .books to children. He stressed the acquaintance of pre-school children with books and reading and how instructive it can be to them. Miss Fawcett discussed the methods of teaching and reading in England. There has been a great deal of improveâ€" ment in the last ten years and the interest in reading and books has grown much stronger. She has found that from books. the pre-school child develops a great interest in outside signs and let- tering. Sometimes the children are 7 years old before they be- gin much reading but they have learned a lot from observation beforehand. l $2.00 per week includes Rent and Lesson Phone TU. 4-1785 Studio:‘ 118 Hall Street Richmond Hill At the January meeting of the Charles’ Howitt Home and School there was an excellent attend- ance.

Charles Hewitt Home and School CORRESPONDENT: RICHVALE NEWS TU. 4-2800 Many people of middle age are still paying the penalty for ill- fitting shoes worn in childhood. Bunions, 'corns and other foot troubles are often the result of shoes ‘that were too short, too narrow or unsuited to the per- son’s feet. The first shoes worn by a youngster should be care- fully chosen. A child’s foot chan- ges size in a matter of weeks in many cases and this must be al- lowed for when shoes are pur- chased, with room left for growth. Even hose may be a troublemaker, especially when they shrink during laundering. It is not a good practice for one child to wear another child’s shoes. Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Paul have returned from their trip to Ot- tawa, where Mrs. Paul was for- tunate enough to be taken on a tour of Government House, the residence of the Governor Gen- eral, and had tea in the Members dining room at the Houses of Parliament afterwards.
