It is fairly ob- vious what the conditions of the schools-especially the rural schools were under such a regime.

"Dr Munro's first care hss been to raise t-he status of the profession by increased facilities for training; by increased salaries through increased government grant, called there pro- vincial sid and paid directly to the teacher on s basis of class of certifi- cate snd length of service; by pen- sion provision; by encouragement of improvement in buildings and equip- ment: by the beginning of library provision; attention to rural high; schools; and st the moment by an‘ effort to educate public opinion to the larger unit of school administra- tion, and to the provision of an eq- ualization fund from which could be given grants to the what would be termed here "wcsk districts." 1t will be noted that.
