In the Quebec Zoological Garden is what is believed to be the only living specimen of one of the rarest of gulls in captivity, the Ivory Gull. They are inhabitants of the Far .\'orth and be- cause tlicy live so exclusively ill the Arctic, they are seldom seen by while men. This specimen was one of a number of Ivory tiulls that appear- ed along the north shore of the Gulf of St. Law- rence last wittter, According to a release 0f the Canadian National l\’ail\va_v.s, the gull eats ltezirt- ily of fish and raw meat but so far has been sil- ent. The plumage is of strileitrg snowy white- ncss without spot or mark of color, the legs aild feet are black and the beak is chiefly dark with a bright orange tip.

This Province has been fortunate ill retaining a consider- able group of efficient teachers in the professlon fer a. number of years. Due to changed economy: conditions caused by the war, tnanv of these experienced teachers are now leaving and taking other IIGIHIIIIGTHTuVC tacsvtlorrs.

It has been generally recognized bf: mot educational authorities that the teacher is the most. 1m- portallt. cog 1n any system‘ of ed- ucation and that successful ex- perlenre equips any teacher to do a liiore contpetent job. In view of this fact. we tlrllk that the {P0110 would do well to take some shims now to retain experienced teach- ers ln the profession.
