There is no easier way to save time, energy and money when you go to the stores. Instead of wishing you knew where to find what you want to buy, you can settle in your own mind the details about prices, colors, quality, sizes and other essentials, just by reading the advertising in “The Liberal”. And as you read, you can decide quickly and easily where your shopping trip will take you. even before taking an actual step away from your home. You get your choice of the largest, most attractive selections when you read the advertising in your ABC weekly newspaper. Retailers place in the ABC weeklies more of their advertising than they place in any other advertising medium. Many stores advertise only in your home town paper. So, for more satisfying, more enjoyable shopping, read the advertising in “.The Liberal” and plan your trips accordingly. Be sure to read the advertising in “The Liberal” this Thursday and every Thursday. Shopping is more successful and satisfying when you start it in “The Liberal” before you visit the stores. “The Liberal" Home Paper of the District Since 1878 On Sale Every Thursday However, the 40 year old free- lancer has “a couple more books in the works right now", sub-‘ mits regular articles to maga-, zines. is viceâ€"president and‘ shareholder of Canada Month, and is one of the founders for Canada‘s first Waldorf School.

In contrast to Canadian ele- mentary schools. the teacher in a Waldorf School follows her students as they advance frorn year to year. In other words, the teacher you had in grade one could still be with you in grade 13. SEVEN DIRECTORS Presently, Canada’s Waldorf School has seven directors three teachers and four laymen. However, this will eventually change so that in the future, teachers will make up the board of directors and will own and control the school themselves. Each year the teachers elect a chairman of the faculty, who a firincipal.

The stu- dent will study technologies in grade three that other schools wouldn't teach until perhaps grade nine. “What wé'i‘e trying to figure out.” Kettle said. “is how to prepare a kid about technolog- ies that haven’t even been in- vemed."
