BACK AGAIN lAUGH PACKED DAYS TONIGHT TUESDAY WEDNESDAY Matinee Wed 230 pm THIS MY GREATEST PERFORMANCE WAS NOT ENTIRELY ALONE Befvedere Mr Bell The change in the age requirement for admitting be ginners to school is actually part of the present movement to make the school conform to the needs Of the child rather than to make the child conform to an arbitrary school programme In the Depart ment of Education bulletin Ont lining the coming revision of the Ontario curriculum issued last December the following statement was made in regard to one of two major defects in our present sys tem of organization It has been found that many pupils in the high er grades have serious reading de fects Expensive and cumbersome programmes Of remedial reading have been advocated to correct these defects The provision Of adequate graded reading material in the Primary and Junior Divis ions and the use of modern meth ods of teaching should go long way to prevent suchdifficultics The modern methods referred to have included much research to establish an ideal average age at which child should begin to read and this is now accepted as being the mental age of six and half years Along with this requirement are many others such as normal health background experience emotional stability and verbal vocabulary much of which is ac quired in the kindergarten year and to varying degrees outside the school Good eyesight welladvanc ed in the fine coordination that reading requires is ofcourse vital If the child is not ready in this respect damage to the eyes and Eve Shows 655 and pm

much of it is not obtainable Of the principal sum which we loaned to the town temporarily at one per cent is granted and plans are being pre pared But there seems to be diffi culty in including properauditotu iiuin Under the Department of Ed ucation procedure only portion of the cost of an auditorium could be returned by the department as was rOCently explained in the Press But that does not

work of grade in ti or months These children should be allowed to proceed without waiting for the end of the school year Some children cannot complete the work of grade in the 10 months the school
