He pointed out that Mr. Bill McMa-ster was well-qualified to speak on the topic “Text Books" as he had been a high school teacher, an editor at Cop-p Clark’s and an assistant sup- erintendent at the Department of Education where he had dealt with text books. Recently Mr. McMaster opened a small ‘fiactory in Richmond Hill â€" Scholastic Publications where *he is managing director. He stated the need to obtain interested teachers to write texts. They have to know the topic involved and have exper- ience in the grade for which the text book is destined. To- day a person can make money writing such books because the market is greater than ever be- fore. M'r. McMIaster pointed out that text books have improved greatly over the years. He out- lined the way in which these books are approved by the De- partment of Education before they are included in circular 14. To Mr. Mchasrter educaltion frees in a youngster’s mind the power to use the symbols of numbers and words. He noted that the new high school cour- lses relate to this power. The arts and science branch is for the student who enjoys these ‘symbols and who wishes to know how to manipulate them. ‘The business and commerce ‘branch is suited to youngsters who are interested in the basic ‘symbols as they apply to com- merce and accountancy. The lenginee-ring branch is for stud- ‘ents who are concerned with the production of material things and therefore in the use Iof the symbols for directions.

THE LIBERAL‘, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Thursday, April 12, 1962 Oh, Canada! What Happened? lYou Can Help YORK NORTH John Addison. Liberal Candidate for North York, is seen here with Hon. Mike Pearson, leader of the Liberal Party of Canada, and Canada's only Nobel Peace Prize winner. In 1837, when the Province of Upper Canada, which included Ontario, stagnated under the self- seeking rule of a clique known as The Family Compact, William Lyon Mackenzie rebelled. He began his famous march from near the centre of what is now York North riding. His protest for progress, though defeated at the time, brought Lord Durham from England to study the causes â€" and responsible government came into being. In 1867, Canada became a nation and for the next 90 years grew and prospered. Landmarks in this progress include the 1931.Statute of Westminster which gave Canada final sovereignty â€" and Can- ada became a member of the League of Nations. In 1947. Canadian citizenship was defined as dis- tinct from British citizenship. Two years later, Canada obtained authority to amend the British North America Act. and thus appeals to the Im- perial Privy Council were abolished. Three years later, in 1952, Canada appointed its first Canadian Governor-General, the Rt. Hon. Vincent Massey. By such steps Canada moved proudly to nationhood and independenceâ€"and under the post-war leadership of the Liberal Government to a position of world influence. In 1948. Mr. Pearson was one of the architects of N.A.T.O. (the North Atlantic Treaty Organiza- tion) which defended devastated post-war Europe from the Communist threat, and laid the founda- tion for its present prosperity. Canada took a respected place in the United Nations, its opinions somht and influence acknowledged by all free nations. It started in 1957 Beginning in 1957, when the Conservative Party assumed office, something began to happen to Canada’s influence and prestige. Under Diefen- baker, Canada seemed to lose its sense of high purpose. The apathy of the government was re. flected in a lagging economy, but even worse our justifiable pride in Canada’s achievements, and in its representatives, was stung severely. Canada must be freed from the Diefenbaker doi- drums. Her voice must rise again in the councils of nations â€" and be respected. Our pride in Canada must be restored so that we can go for- ward with faith in our future. Only Hon. Mike Pearson and the Liberal Party can do it â€" and only you as a free voter can make sure that they have the opportunity. John Addison, as a Liberal Member of Parliament for York North, can help you. As electors of York North you can assure his election. ’J YORK NORTH BACK .ON THE MAP (Inserted by the York North leeml Aucclltlon)
