Scale of Membership Fees

A notice of motion regarding the changing of the scale of member- ship fees from ten dollars to eight do era was brought into discussion at the open forum at the final sea- aion of the Teachers‘ federation yesterday.

Although discussion was not re- quired on this point until the next annual conference. interest was high and many teachers took the floor to air their views. one point that was stressed was that if the motion should be subsequently passed then Federation funds would be lowered, and it would neces- sarily curtail the work which the Federation hoped to accomplish.

It was pointed out that the re- duction in the scale would affect the higher mid teachers more than those on a lower rate of salary. As most of the rural teachers came in- to this latter bracket. and it was in their schools that the Fed- eration spent most of the funds. no objection should be raised by thorn in regard to reduction of rates for city school teachers. who did not derive as much material benefit from the work of the Federation

A motion that the Federation de- nete £260 to the work of the Red Cross was almost unanimously vot- ed down in view of the fact that many teachers give of their time to canvass for the Red Cross cam- paign, and almost every teacher at the conference had been :4. person- al contributor.

Choral Singing

One of the features of yesterday's session was the singing of three choral groups, one from each of the Counties. Although members of these groups had not worked to- gether ln this capacity previously. and some had never met, their per- formances were most acceptable. The King's County choir offered three numbers such as could be used with Primary groups, and were directed by Mr. Frank Johnston. The Prince Cdunty Choir under the direction of Mr. John Leuty of Summerslde. gave an excellent ex- ample of two part harmony, suit- able for redes 7, 8 and 9. Mr. R. F. Mugfod directed the Queen's County group in a three part ar- rangcment of a hymn tune, and amazed the audience with the beautiful blending of tone his choir had perfected in the few short re- hearsals at their disposal. Bo- prsno soloist in this number was Miss Christine King.

Mr. silver directed the combin- ed county Groups in the singing of "Santa Lucia". with Miss Mary Gillie of Alberton as soloist.

During the morning session Mr. Walter LoPage gave a short talk on behalf of the extension pro- gramme of scout work in the Pro- vince. and asked the co-operation of teachers in forwarding namoa of youths between the ages of IQ and 16 who might be interested in this work.

Mr. Francis white of the De- pe.rtment,of Public Works spoke for a few minutes on the necessity of teaching highway pncautlons to children. and also announced the competition for schools to be open- ed in the near future with regard to obtaining a suitable design f:r road markers.

on behalf of the Women's In- stitutes of which she is supervis- or. Miss Mary Robins gave a short tell: on handicrafts in the Province. she stressed the need for more samples of handicrafts from the schools for the Provincial Exhibition.

Mr. Powers as representative of R.C.A. Victor for New Bruns- wiok and Prince Edward Island. spoke of the advantages gained by using records in the schools. we talk was supplemented by a dem- onstration of what could be done in this new and modern method of education.

Canadians Buy More Aui_o_mobi|es

OTTAWA. April iii — (OP) - Canadians are buying three times as many‘ new automobiles as they did a year ago and they're paying for more than one-quarter of them on the installment plan.

The Bureau of Statistics report- ed today that 23.310 new passenger cars were sold in Canada during February compared with 3.036 in the same month a year ago. Value was $46,116,028 as against $17,466.- 01

Of these. 0,197 cars were fi- nanced to the amount of $8.210.- l‘ll as compared with 2.001 fi- n’e‘n.ced for t2.els.ess in February. I

Following is the text of a timely and interesting address on “The challenge of Education." delivered at the Teachers‘ Federation con- vention yesterday at the closing session of the Teachers Federation convention by Dr. Frank MacKin- non. Principal of Prince of Wales College:

“It is my privilege to welcome the teachers of this Province to Prince of Wales. your alma mater. We are very glad to have this con- vention in the College once again and to have the opportunity of re- newing old friendships with those who have secured their profes- sional trainlng here.

“When your executive did me the honour of inviting me to speak to you I considered two kinds of subjects. First. there is the gen- eral type of address which could include a generous measure of platitudes which might tickle the ear. but which would provoke neither t‘ ‘ nor discussion. On the other hand I could choose something more frank. and per- haps more controversial. I took the second alternative for I thought it would be more wel- comed by ts ya°EGII'0nIE body. Some of the points are so vital in contemporary education and so significant in the future welfare of the nation that I have entitled these remarks. "The Challenge of Education."

“I must emphasize that I speak here of education generally with no attempt to discuss principles and practices in any special area. or at any particular level from kindergarten to university.

Term. Defined

"Like Voltaire. we should ‘define our terms‘ before attempting to discuss a complicated subject. What then is the education which we as teachers should help students to seek? I submit that it is a combination of three things: (1) the learning of certain basic facts. (such lg historical data and na- tural deacrlptlons). which we are expected to know or at least ap- preciate; (2) learning special skills such as writing. or making things which we might find useful for broadening our interests or mak- in! A living: and. most Important of all. (3) developing the difficult art of distinguishing between the significant and the trivial, or train. lng our judgment or common sense.

"I want to urge the point that neither of the first two is an edu- cation without the third. They are merely drills in mechanical proces- ses: the third is the means of de- veloping the individual himself. It should not be necessary to say this: but it is a disturbing fact in some contemporary circles that so called "educational" programs are being featured which are de- sixned for a mechanical robot or a performing monkey rather than for a man or woman who must face the tremendous problems of life. The chief task of education. (al- though not the only one) is to as- sist students to develop their characters and to stimulate the mental and moral equipment which Divine Providence has been good enough to grant us all in greater or less degree.

Hard Work Eaeenflal

"I say that we assist students to do these things. We must never forget that our duty is not to stuff their heads with facts but to guide them in getting the fact for themselves. not to force them to learn solely for the sake of marks. grades. degrees. or places on the honour roll—these are sec- ondary consldarstions -'- but rath- er to encourage them to use their imagination.

"In other words the main bur- den ia theirs: the teacher is but a director or guide. ‘A teacher.‘ said Horace Mann. ‘who is attempt- ing to teach without inspiring the pupil with a desire to learn is hammering on cold iron.’ There are far too many people who think that education can be made easy for the students. that It can be dispensed in convenient and Dre- dlgested form. and that applica- tion and hard work in education are old-fashioned. The history of education has too clearly shown that no amount of frills and spoon feeding is an effective substitute for determination and hard work.

“Education. particularly that part of it which develops character and common sense. must be tempered in the fires of personal experience. ‘The three foundations of learn- ing. eald one writer. are ‘Stein! much. snfferinu much. And study- ing much.’ Students must lay these foundations themselves: we may help but we cannot do it for

em.

This Idea places heavy obliga- tlonl upon the teacher. It is far harder to foster the development of character and judgement than to force the contents of a text book into the unretentive memo y. The tea ‘- must himself ban student if he is to teach others and his own life must be an ex- nmole to those who sit under him. This is an old truth. for it was ihe.anclent Buddha who said that ‘a man should first direct himself in the way he should go. only th-n should he instruct others.‘

“This point is obvious but it is too easily forgotten in the daily routine. We as teachers must realize the enormous responsibility which faces those who presume to teach others: we must humble our. eelves to drink deep at the foun- tain of knowledge and realise that. with the greatest diligence. the portion we are able. to get and im- part to others is but a tiny drop in an unlimited flood.

Quality. Not Quantity

“These considerations amount to a plea for greater emphasis on quality in education rather than quantity. In everwfieid of knowl- edge a penetrating understanding of a few things is far more ea- sentlal In a good education and

far more useful in life than a superficial easatteriu many.

Educational Aims0u Before Teachers Federation

fined

Dr. Frank Maollinnon

::._.j.__:—-. There is an old axiom to "them!- fect that a mastery of the funda- mentals of even one subject is an excellent training for a general ap- preciation of others.

“This is not to say that one should confine his intellectual ef- forts to one field. but rather that he should at all costs avoid the habit, which is all too easy to so- qulre. of doing a little bit of every- thing and not much of anything. ‘The rolling stone‘. ran the French proverb. ‘gathers no moss.’ The teacher and the student should so cultivate both the general and the particular that they can experience the satisfaction and stimulus of doing something well in addition to the interest of the more general background.
