At eight o'clock, President Eric Higgs of the home and school association welcomed the 'grads. their parents and guests. After this the grads served their parents coffee and cake, with Mrs. Myrelon Harris as social convenor. Guests were also ser- ved while the grads had their cookies and milk. A short prog- ram followed during which greetings were brought by Trus- tee Les Clarke and Super- vising Principal Sand. Bill Lusk. one of the graduates gave the valedictorian speech. Bill also received a cheque of $15.. from the Henderson .iomc .mti‘ School treasurer for highest aca- demic achievement. Boo Priest- man was presented with a cheque for $10. by Mrs. D. Mor-. rison of the Donoaster LadiestV Club as second highest student. Principal Martindale spoke a few words of challenge to the grads and with the assistance of Mrs. Wardinier and Mrs. Calder, . grade 8 teachers, presented the } graduation pins. Daphne Litm- strong thanked the home and school association for the pins. The formal part of the program concluded by Mr. Art McMaster on behalf of the grads’ parents thanking the home and school ‘for arranging the details of the important event. The rest of. the evening was turned over to . the grads for a dance with the ‘ teaching staff and a few home and school executive members remaining as chaperones. This ‘ form of graduation seemed an , unqualified success and will ‘ probably become traditional; ‘ .4 A new parking area has just recently been paved directly north of the Henderson Ave. School and the roadway to the east of the woods is now block- ed off. This has probably been a hazard to the pupils walking to and from school, and it is rather nice to have a footâ€"path from this end of the school grounds.

Again the auditor, who sug- gested that the press should ex- ercise discretion in dealing with the figures, said that he did not think that there would be any over-spending on the whole at the end of December. Councillors failed to show any real concern about the-situa- tion, most taking the stand that the figures. presented in the form that they were, only Show- ed part of the picture and could not be regarded as indicating the true situation. In certain cases. it was impossible to tell what revenue would come from outside sources until the end of the year, and this was a usual situation, it was declared. this space of time, interrupt the "brainstorming". The activities of the Ontario Teachers' Feder- ation will be described another time, but it is timely that one decision of this 1960 meeting- be discussed now. We noted in the last article that the Minister of Education receives advice and requests 'from many sources of nninion. One of these sources is the tea- chers themselves.

They were guests of the Kiwanis Club. But, said Reeve William Hodgson of King Township, this was not a true picture. On-, ly expenditures were shown without the cerresponding re- venue. The auditor said that the figures were an "educated guess," while Clerk-Treasurer J. L. Smith said that if only the amounts listed in the bud~ get were received some over- spending was likely.

Every summer. forty dele- gates of all the school teachers .of Ontario (private schools ex~ cepted) meet to share ideas and make decisions of policy for the coming year.

This conference will be held at Windsor. Ont. on Thursday, Friday and Saturday this week. What are the opinions of the home and school association, the Ontario Chamber of Com- merce, the Ontario Federation of Labour and ten other spon- soring organizations? When the discussions are finished at the end of this week. each of these organizations is expected to bring back_reports for study, and Vfor action I Consequently, news will em- anate from Windsor during the Flatter part of this week on such ‘items as the effectiveness of ‘teaching of various subjects. the philosophy of teaching certain! gsubjects, teacher education. the ‘treatment of individual dlifer- ences in school, religious in-l struction, mental health, and[ equal opportunities for all child-r fen. to mention only a few top- os. i The aims of this conference were stipulated by the teachers, and then the conference was turned over to an autonomous body so that it would not hap- pen (or appear to happen) that this conference was “teacher- controlled".

The proportion of teachers at‘ this conference of 1,000 dele- gates will be less than fifty per cent. "This conference, through group processes, will make a critical analysis of what is be- ing done in education In Ontario. It has three mam aims: 3. To propose means for cor- recting deficiencies and for ov- ergqmtng difficulties. 1. To assess the strengths of our educational procedures; 2_. To identify weaknesses; and Imagine this scene: forty peop- le seated around a table. The setting is a small lodge on Lake Muskoka. The time Is 1960, mid- August. and a good time for swimming, fishing and boating. but for the largest part of a‘ week these forty people will‘ have time only for a dip before the evening meal. Who are they, ang why did they come here? In recent weeks “The Liberal” has been privileged to publish articles written by Mr. G. L. McDiarmid, principal of McConaghy Public School, Richmond Hill, and president of Ontario Public School Men Teachers Federation. These articles have dealt with various phases of education.
