Top entry in the corn silage class was shown by W. G. Ness of Aurora. w. P. Watson, guest speaker for the day, thoroughly reviewed the future prospects for beef. hogs and dairy products in his talk. He cautioned beef produc- ors against paying high prices tor feeder cattle. Surpluses of horn poultry and pork, as well as the high cattle population in the United States, ware a threat to future prices for beef. according to Mr. Watson, He considered the market for dairy products and processors. He emphasized the importance of butter, as the out- let for over 40% of the milk pro- duced, and stressed the need for stability in butter prices, to maintain stability in the whole dairy industry. Government price stports and producer control of marketing were both endorsed by Mr. Watson, as necessary to keep a fair share of the national in- come for farmers. Alex Davidson of Stouffville had first prize entries in both the Wheat 8 '. Rodney oat class- es.

Peace, Vice Principal of Walter Scott School, Mrs. J. A. Price, Past President of Walter Scott Home & School Association, Mrs. I. Worrell, Public School Board and Mr. S. Rumble, High School Board discussed the “Aims of Education” at the 'Walter Scott Home & School Association Meeting. Mr. Arthur Spence. English teacher at Bathurst Heights Collegiate, was Modera- tor. The opinions expressed were those of the individual and not necessarily thoso of any School Board or other official body. 7 In his opening remarks, Mr. Spence said that the aims of the school have changed -â€" it is only in the last 20 years that an at- tempt to teach all pupils has been made and one can still talk freely of the “aims of education.” In leading the panel members through 6 or '7 specific questions the following opinions were ex- preSSed to Mr. Spence. "Aims Of Education" Panel Discussion At Home & School Meet Regarding National Needs â€"- Mr. Rumble felt that the coun- try needs an educated popula-‘ tion to defend themselVes. It was unanimously agreed that the schools should not be subservient to the state as in Russia. The schools are changing just as de- mocracy demands change. Mrs. Worrell said she would like to see a more uniform system of education among the provinces - at the present time there are many differences between the v..rious Boards of Education. Science and Religion became correlated when the theory of evolution was discussed bringing about the question of how to in- troduce the subject to students without countermanding (he re- ligious belief of earth’s origin that is usually taught in the home. The general opinion of the panel was that both theories should be explained to the pupil without emphasis on either side and, as parents, they thought that what was taught in the home would prevail. In the case of no religion the child had a choice. Mr. Peace said he would like to teach all religions in the senior grades and Mrs. Worrell stated that if different religions were discussed in High School, students would learn to under- stand, and not just tolerate, the beliefs of others. _. .7, ucllvna v "n..." Should the school be expected to teach morals? Mrs. Worrell suggested that, without morals, it is sometimes “not that people can't' live with themselves but that they can’t live with their neighbours” and the school’s job is to teach a child to find his place in society. Mrs“ Price said that by the time a child has reached the age of 5 years he knows, basically, what is right and wrong and the school at,- tem-pts to carry on: I ,;12__..-L:.. many»: 0 .0.-.“ v" ~' Morality is a part of citizenship but the best citizen is\ not always the one who causes the least trouble. Good citizenship was considered to be many things ~ it was defined as national pride; do what you can do and do what you must do to the best of your ability; respect the laws of the community and take an interest in the community in which you live â€" one way is by voting, be- ing members of Home & School A very successful euchre party was held by the Mark-Vaun W.I. on Saturday, March 26, at the home of Mrs, Heather Morrison.

Mr. Rumble said that a limited voca- tional course in the Basic Indus- trial Arts is available for the first two years of high school. Mr. Peace thought that in some cases more should be done in the way of introduction to a trade in the lower grades in order to equip the slow learner with a means to support himself ra‘her than have a student lease public school a: the age of Sixteen and haVe to commit a misdemeanour in order to learn a trade, suited to his capabilities. in Reform School. In summing up, Mr. Spence said that although nothing had been settled the panel had‘ cer- tainly give: the audience some- thmg to think about regarding the many "Aims of Education." ~ Everyone was muted to look over the model of the new High during the social period that fol- lowed.
