He read from a rep- ort. dated 1912. of the then Su- periatendent of Education, in which the district school manage- ment system was deplored and the larger unit advocated so that the "result would be better trua- tees and schools".

During the presentation of her report, the President, Mrs. .l.P. Lantz. stated "Last year our Fe- deration led a delegation to the Government to ask for a Royal Commission on Education. The request was refused on the grounds that only a minority was con- cerned over the situation. This fall. our delegation, strengthen- ed by others, again waited on the Government, the Federation of Agriculture this time supplying the spokesman. A Royal Commis- sion was in diafavour with the Government. but some recognition of the petition was promised".

Having related the establish- merit of the Select Standing Com- mittee and the subsequent pre- sentation of briefs to it. Mrs. Lantz continued by saying that the many briefs showed widespread Interest and that serious thinking had been done concern- ing educational problems. As a result. the Committee submitted a report containing many fl is e . mmendations. which was ac- cepted by the House. There the matter now rests. The Home and School Federation hope to con- tinue to play a major part in obtaining more progressive poli- cies in education in our Province".

it with their high ideals of devoted service to suffering fellowman. He also emphasized the loving sacri- fices which the graduates. par- ents had made during the past number of years so that the task of the past three years might be lightened and the final goal of graduation in their chosen pro- feaslon attained. and he urged the nurses in turn to express grati- tude to their parents for what they had done.

ON BORDER-LAND

"The work of the nurse is on the border-land where the material and spiritual worlds meet. The hu- man body animated by an immor- tal soul is her field of action." Rev. Dr. Murphy continued. "The care of the human body. shattered by sickness. is the primary ob- ject of the nurse's profession and demands science and technique. Therefore. only after yers of in- tense study and tedious practise will be coveted diploma of gradu- ation be awarded her."

''It would be a fatal mistake". Dr. Murphy said. "to take it for granted that your education is complete. You have just complet- ed the foundntion upon which you may build. Keep abreast with the u mendoua progress of medical science of which your profession is theh J ” Nursingisnowbe- coming highly specialised. Few PI fessions offer such opportuni- ties to the young woman who is

Stresses Droma's

Continued from page I play: uncertainty of lines; faulty enunclation; and lack of imagine tion. The first offense the adjudi- cator calied "unforglvable", and suggested more attention should be given to "line rehearsal". To overcome the second fault noted. Professor Sipprell advised prac- tice in private. The third fault the adjudicator blamed on the Dir- ectors. "Scripts should be viewed more imaginatively so far as eye appeal is concerned." he said.

The adjudicator felt that the first play suffered rather badly because the producers had decided to abandon the idea of an apron stage- ”In order to get the full effect this play should play straight through," he said.

"All farces require a good last tempo-each character however holding to his own tempo." Pro- fsssor Sipprell said in reference to the second production staged. Ha asserted that the script of this play was "quite good." but added that "more definite physical ac- tion" was needed.

The posltions and movement of the actors in the final play ad- judicated. were praised highly by the adjudicator. "The positions were intelligent. and made excel- lent stage pictures; the move- ments were good." he said. adding that one or two scenes might have been improved. The -- h e of the play suffered somewhat from the disharmony created by one of the stage properties the adjudicator noted.

The festival will resume tomor- row night in the same ball when the Borden Youth Club presents "Never Say Dye." a comedy in three sets by Austin Goets.

shortage of teachers, one-room schools with ten grades. teachers salaries. and the lack of a pro- per philosophy of ulucatlon, were keaily discussed, ind whoed the necessity of qualifications of tea- chers, to be accompanied by an adequate salary scale.

Keeping in mind that the prl. mary importance of education is to train the child to live a life. rather than only to make a liv- ing, suggestions were offered that a closer contact between parents and teacher. would be desirable; also that older pupils who are

have the option of selecting some V ational subjects. In small cen- tres where facilities are not avail- able. they should be directed to the Provincial Vocational School.

Mr. Thomas I-Iail presided at this meeting and Miss Etta Mac- Donald was secretary. In the Absence of the treasurer. Miss Mamie Mill acted in that capa- city.
