No blame was attached to anyone concerned, it being found by the jury after all the evidence had been heard, that the crew of the passenger train had made all the necessary precautions while the driver of the truck, Harold Williams, in the employ of Nes. kel, had proceeded with safety to the best of his intents, The inquest, =adjourned from Saturday, November 26, was con- ducted by Coroner Dr, D. 8, Hoig.

Time for play, time for physical ex- ercise, these were imperative needs for the child; but the keeping alive of the vital connection between | teacher-effori and parent-interest was one of the essentials of education. The speaker has new views on the teaching of sex hygiene.

His suggestions were, largely, stated by implication.

Sex Knowledge g The adult's place in gradual un- folding of life's mysteries to the adolescent mind was, primarily, to be founded on the theory that ex- ample is of more value than precept. Then, this was the interpretation of speaker's viewpoint, the actual in- struction might be best imparted by manly lads and womanly girls to those a little younger. This system depends, first, upon adult example be- ig reflected down to the young by the step-like years of young man- hood and wemanhood. Elaborate perhaps, yet, after all, the natural way. Improper understanding of sex can be traced always to adult coarseness. | The smoking car story is the parent of obscenity chalked by childish hands on the back fence. Education is no longer to be a mill turning out standardized prod- | ucts, Dr. Kerby declared. "A better day is coming, and those that like] to sit on the tail of progress shout 'whoa!' are going to be more uncomfortable than ever before. But there's going to be a lot of fun for | those that can applaud education set to the rhythm of 'Praise God from whom all blessings flow!"'" NOVEMBER PERMITS TOTALLED $361,633 Only $24,000 More Requir- ed to Reach $5,000,000 Mark Permits totalling $21,305 in value were recorded yesterday, thereby in- creasing November's total to $361,- 645--a record in itself--and the year's to tal to $4,976,313. This leaves less than $24,000 to record before 1927 achieves a total of $5,000,000, As recently as September 1, the statement that the year's grand total might reach the $4,000,000 mark was received with doubt in some quar- ters. Yet that mark, long since pas- sed, gave place to the higher total which is now almost achieved. This means that the fall in Oshawa this year saw a million dollars of new building begun. The season has been propitious, achieving a record which will probably not be reached again for another ten years. REV. G, I, CAMPBELL, B.D.
