With respect to the teaching of French in the schools, Mr.‘ McKague felt this would as- sume increasing importance with the urgency of the matter of biculturalism. He pointed out that a large part of the people of Ontario work in communities with substantial numbers of‘ French-speaking Canadians. “While many think that the teaching of Oral French may not lead to profitable results. I urge you to think ahead," said Mr. McKague. “The young people of the province of Quebec are not staying.r there, they are .moving across Canada and many are coming to the Toronto area."

Urge your young people to get degrees, honor degrees if possible. We need teachers who can pass from kindergarten to grade 10, or from grade 7 to grade 13,” was the advice of A. H.

Mr. McKaguc emphasized that education is big business and the Department of Education is the largest department of the Ontario government. There are now 1.700.000 ,pupils in :elementary and secondary ischools in the province. While the pupil is the centre ‘of the educational picture. next to him is the teacher and the {situation in this regard is very ;critical. Mr. McKague said. The elementary schools have gone through a very difficult period due to an increase in the school populauon and thb gincrease has now almost all pas- sed on to the secondary schools. ‘One fifth of all secondary ‘school teachers in the province are in their initial year of [teaching and this situation even exists in large metro staffs where there are as many teach- ers with less than five years' experience as there are with more. Mr. McKague estimated that it would take from three to five years to catch up with the demand for teachers. with the need for revising courses. The most important revisions coming up are in the kindergarten to grade 6 levels and a large group of lay people is meeting with the committee shortly to deal with this re- vision. The department dealing with community colleges is working furiously on this urgent matter, Mr. Mc- Kague said, and an an- nouncement will be made the company that shows 100% interest in you!" Warden of York County. Sidâ€" ney Legge. brought the greet- ings of the county council. which sponsored the evening. The York County Science Fair was also announced, to be held at 16th Avenue Public School May 6. 7 and 8. This is being supervised by Malcolm McRoberts, principal of Conâ€" cord Public School in Vaughan Township. It was also announced that Arbor Day will be celebrated in York County May 5, 6 and 7, under the supervision of In- spector W. J. McLeod. Chairman for the evening, Reeve Norn Garriock of Wood- bridge took over the micro- phone again and delivered his next remarks in French. re- ceiving a good hand from the audience for his courage, U.S. "No country can remain p e r m a n e n tly economically bound and politically free." he insisted. The only alternative, if we are to have a centenary of which we can be proud, he said. was to learn to live with our French Canadian neighbors. The average French-speaking person in Quebec wants to live in harmony with the rest of the provinces, Mr. McKague em- phasized and by taking some steps ourselves to understand their culture and language. we could meet them half way. While in the past the teachâ€" ing of French had not been too successful, too many people learning only to read but not to speak the language, “the op- portunities for our children and grandchildren to learn to speak’ French are much better than ours were.“ he said. Mr. McKague emphasized strongly that it was not pos- sible to train or educate too many of our young people too far. "Our greatest export should be education." he said. “Canadians won't live happily in our abundant acres while others go short.“ he felt, and noted that within the next few years it was estimated that five eighths of the people of the world will be Asiatics. John Honsberger. chairman of the York Central District High School Board thanked Mr. McKague for his remarks which he felt would help the trustees prepare themselves for the changes in store for them. “What is our relationship to the people of China. of India, south-east Asia?“ he asked. “Here is our greatest challenge. We must train our young people to see the other fellow's point of View." The Carrville UCW met at the home of Mrs. Ray Warmington on April 7, with fourteen lad- ies present.
