"While teacher training loans and grants have aided in inducing young people to enter the teacher training classes in our Normal School. yet we are still far short of the number we should be training and our schools continue to suffer," stated Hon. Keir Clark, Minister of Education, in speak- ing in the Budget debate in the Legislature on Wednesday night.

"Although this problem is com- mon to other Provinces of Can- ada, nevertheless. we must decide how we shall remedy it in our own Province", he continued. “Consideration will be given to the possibility of associating nor- mal training with the academic and giving additional normal training by an extended college year.

“Secondly we will continue with the present policy of teacher training summer refresher cours- es. our teachers will be encour- aged to improve their qualifica- tions by taklng. at least. a certain number of these courses, and grants will be continued to exiable them to attend summer schools.

This is an outstandinll achievement considering the small number of cattle on Prince Ed- ward Island compared to the total in Canada.

The top record reported was in the Mature. 365-dsy class by Hol- lywood Red Rose. an 8-year-old cow bred and owned by Almon Wood as Sons of Marshfield. Red Rose prod-uced 16.042 lbs. of milk. with a butterfat test of 4.78% for 719 lbs. of fat. This is 154% of qualification requirements for milk and 182% of requirement for fat.

Gartney Anne and, bred by W EA. Stewart of Btrathgartney and now owned by the Experimental Station. St. John's. Nt‘ld., topped the Mature 305-day class with ll,- 6B2 lbs. of milk testing 5.27% for 616 lbs. of fat. This is 173% of requirement for fat. It should be noted that requlrementsf or qual-

ification are the average of all Ayrshire records completed in each class during the 988% 81X years.
