Church News Canada’s life style of tomorrow presents many challengs. But it’s Ontario’s style to meet these challenges today. Ontario‘s quest for knowledge con- tinues after the sun goes down, with adults doing most of the studying. In Toronto alone evening courses number in the hundreds and thous- ands of adults study subjects ranging from carpentry to civics, pottery to ‘poetry. Your children aren’t going to get ' w the education you got. Ontario‘s way of learning has changed, because our way of life has changed. Children today learn mathe- matics by discovering how numbers behave and what they mean. They don’t study grammar for the sake of grammar, nor accept history without examining all view points. And the sciences they are taught are the sciences of the 70’s. The things your child learns today, will prepare him for the life style he’ll face tomorrow. We’d be short changing our young people and our province if we taught them any- thing less. _ Today the province has 16 universities. In the last four years alone enrolment has more than The Victoria Square Baseball Team eked out a win by a score of 13-12 in their game at Clare- mont May_18.

If you don‘t really believe we need advanced education techniques to face an advanced world, we’ll give you a selfish reason. Your future. Ontario’s economy has grown from $14.7 billion in 1960 to some $31.5 billion in 1969. Our incomes have doubled in the same decade. Our increase in exports is the second highest in'the world. To maintain this kind of development, we need well developed people. Our investment in education helps build a better future. But we need a strong economy to support our good intentions. One way you can help: when price and quality compare, shop Canadian. Ontario's labour force which topped 3 million last year for the first time is becoming increasingly skilled and competitive with other leading in- dustrial nations. Our annual invest- ment in manpower education is designed to continue the upgrading of skills through Ontario’sprogram of in-plant training.
