FRIDAY, OCTOBER 35, 1928 ACCIDENT PREVENTION "Some months it is one thing and other months it is something different," says R. B. Morley, General Manager, Industrial Ac- cident Prevention Associations, commenting on the industrial accident situation, "This past month it has been infection cases that stood out in our records." It appears that, of the thousands of acci- dents reported each month to the Compen- sation Board, about one-tenth show infection in the early stages, This, it is claimed, is largely due to failure of men to report slight injuries, Some men seem to have a chronic objection to reporting minor cuts and scratches and too often such slight wounds have serious results because infection de- velops, Last month there were 7,032 accidents re- ported 'by industries in Ontario to the Work- men's Compensation Board including 58 fa- tal cases. In August, there were 8,022 re- ported including 41 fatalities and although the total for September is lower than the former month, there were 17 more fatal ac- cidents reported in September than during August, The awards made by the Board in September totalled $532,921.20 which in- cluded $84,965.05 for medical aid, The good work of the Industrial Accident Prevention Associations is well known among the factories and the inspectors who "epresent the various groups should be given wery consideration and co-operation, THE TEACHER IS TAUGHT a This is a glorious week-end for the public school pupils of Oshawa, and, indeed, of most Ontario, Four days of fun and frolic, three happy nights with no homework bogey aris- ing in the middle of the evening's enjoy- ment--for this is the week of the annual teachers' institute meetings, The convention of teachers of South Ontario is being held in Oshawa this year, and Centre street school, alone of Oshawa's public schools, echoes with the tramp of humans and the sound of voices, But, though their annual meet is an inter- esting relief from daily school routine, it is no indoor picnic for the teachers, They are as conscientious about, their convention gath- ering as they are about the morrow's lessons, that have to be prepared so thoroughly that Johnny's active mind cannot "stick" his teacher, And so, speakers that are leaders in their own field discuss matters ranging all the way from music to school discipline, and helpful indeed are the sessions to the edu- cational leader of today's youth who is all interested in his or her responsibility, The conscientious way which the teach- er, often bearer of chief responsibility in more than one division of the community's activities, accepts his position of leadership among youth and adult, is no better shown than in the hearty way in which each indi- vidual takes part in the discussions of the two-day convention, A consideration of the reading problem among primary grade pu- pils, a discussion of general school discipline according to the acceptances of modern edu- cational practice, the study of literature in gll its forms as it relates to the public school pupil, and treatises on subjects of interest outside of strictly educational topics, are a few of the matters that are being dealt with this year by South Ontario teachers, Perhaps the outstanding item noticeable in recent years, however, is the much in- ercased interest that is being shown in the pil. This year, for instance, the supervisor of the educational department of a large phonograph manufacturing firm is speaking at the convention on the corelation of music with other school subjects, and is giving her talk practical illustration by means of a phonograph and a class trained along musi. cal lines that may be taught in public schools. A number of "musical novelties" are being illustrated by the class of Mr. J. Blow of this city, while Mr, J. R. Seavy, of the Hamilton Normal school, dealt with the teaching of elementary color work in art. classes, and L. F. Unitt, supervisor of music in Oshawa's public schools, led a model com- munity singing class. The work of the public school of Ontario is, in truth, moving away from the old "three R's" type of education, and its field of endeavor is continually broadening. But when it is considered that, even yet, a public school education is the complete extent of the schooling available to many of the less fortunate children of the province, there will be few to utter a regret that public school education has entered upon a broader and a higher field. rae. GOLF A WICKED GAME "2, Many and varied have been the indict- ments levelled in the past against the 10yal and ancient game of golf, favorite pastime and relaxation of our best minds, Breaking up of homes, neglect of business, addiction to profanity, violation of the law at the nineteenth hole--all of these and more have been ascribed to a too hearty devotion to the links, . And now, to cap the climax, golf must take its place alongside of betting on the races and shooting craps, as a first step toward crime, .Recently a man confessed to the police that his fondness for golf led him to cash some $2,700 in bad checks, Passing most of his time knocking the pill about, he gave over most of his gainful occupations . and had to resort to fraud for money upon which to live. Thus do our idols crumble, Golf has always been counted such a re- spectable pastime, too--ministers, bank pre- sidents, editors, lawyers, doctors, statesmen, judges and movie actors--all the upper crust of society--have indulged in it, It has been the aristocrat of sports, the sport of aristo- crats, But no longer can golf hold up its head. Even playing the game on Sundays does not lend sanctity to it, It would not be surprising if, some day, petitions were presented to our legislators asking them to give up their fav- orite exercise, lest they set a bad example to the impressionable youth of the country, EDITORIAL NOTES There are too many light heads back of headlights.

A. Ellis, director of the Bureau of Munici- pal Affairs, was dealt yesterday, when the Sandwich town council instructed John Sale, town solicitor, to seek special legislation for sep- aration from the county and incor- poration as a eity, Councillor Eugene Breault, fors mer Mayor of Sandwich, who spon- sored the resolution, candidly ad- mitted that the proposal was fram- ed with the idea of bringing out he vote against amalgamation at the municpal elections in January, "I think the move to separate now, while we are presenting the question of amalgamation to the people," Councillor Breault said, "4s the right move at the right time. It will bring the issue of Sandwich as a separate city, freed from the burden of county taxes, directly face to face with the posi- tion of Sandwich as amalgamated with the other municipalities. I favor it because I am opposed to amalgamaton and I believe it will bring out the vote against amal- gamation." PLAN HUGE VESSEL FOR ST. LAWRENCE C. P.
