And General Motors has seen many of its visions realized. . . : It has seen a great industry grow up in Canada to supply the Canadian family with a means of trans- portation to meet its needs and resources, to answer the desire for style, dependability, luxdry, It has seen, in the Canadian Fisher Body plants, the perpetuation of Canadian ideals of craftsmanship. It has seen, in the General Motors Research labor- atories, the development of countless advances and refinements on which much of modern motoring com- fort depends, " It has seen, on the General Motors Proving Grounds, the proof of principles which are now accepted factors in automobile design and construction. It has seen the triumph of co-operative purchasing and manufacturing methods with their resultant economies to be shared with the buyers of General Motors cars. . And the eyes of General Motors are still to the horizon -, . . still seeking new ways to improve General Motors Cars and to place the cars within reach of ever-widening circles of Canadian buyers.

In Hamilton the apprentices in certain industries are required to attend the Hamilton Technical Insti- tute for part time instruction." . In Windsor the Ford Motor Com- pany accepts in its tool making de- partment only graduates of the Wind- sor-Walkerville Technical School. In Ottawa printing apprentices are in at- "tendance at the Technical School. In Kitchener one firm requires its ap- prentices to attend the Evening Classes of the Technical School. Quite recently a province wide scheme has been organized by employers and organized labour comprising all those associated with all branches of the building construction industry to es- tablish an apprenticeship system and to contribute funds to provide a wage of $2.00 per day for all their appren- tices who are required to attend the technical school during periods of non-employment. The training given is very varied in the schools and pre- pares young people to earn a living whether at a lathe or bench in a ma- chine shop, at a switchboard in a power plant, in a repair department of a garage, in an alteration or sales department of a dressmaking shop, in office work with financial companies, and in many other fields where vo- cational training and skill are re- quired. Haileybury Mining School. As instances of the benefits of vo- cational education to the young peo- ple of a community, it may be en- lightening to give some of the results secured at the Mining School at Haileybury, This school has been in operation for some time and many of the graduates are now found actively engaged in work for which they were trained. From information supplied by Mr. W. H. Tuke, the Principal, and Mr. James Hill the instructor in min- ing a tabulation has been made showing the occupation of 60 of the graduates of this comparatively small school. The following table shows the occupation and the number engaged: Prospectors, 18; Mill men, 11; Asagpyers, 7; Mine Surveyors, T; Continued on page eight Th , Nov. 7-8] - DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS PORT PERRY sT | PICTURE HOUSE TOWN HALL Doors Oper 7.80 p.m, Every Tuesd'y Children 15¢. | Saturd'y Saturday, November 5 SALLEY O'NEILL LEVY
