Stimulation and public interest in school buildings will very quickly show itself in the general appearance of the plant and its surrounding. Too many of our schools are in appearance dull and gloomy and lacking in even landscaping: that would add so much to the aspect. ~ Relation to Community. The school building should, in its community, be such that in itself it will exert an educational influence. It should be an inspiration, not only to the pupils who attend its functions, but to the community in which it is placed, and to be such it must of necessity be pleasing in design and set amid surroundings of proper land- scaping. Costly and elaborately de- signed buildings are not necessary. Design of simplicity and pleasing form supported in its setting by land- scaping grouped to suit the building would have valuable character-build- ing influences. School buildings are notoriously lacking in the landscaping necessary 4 : 4 4 4 4 HH 4 4 4 : be 80500000088 0088080000000888800008000¢1 4 111111 Formerly COX MOTOR SALES.

It will be a centre of culture for the community, and as such it should be one of the best, and not the least distinguished buildings in the neigh- borhood.: : The Problem of School Attendance As parents, we must recognize that to gain the full benefit of our educa- tional system, children must have the the best mental and physical health that can be provided. This year, due to a combination of causes, there has been an unusual anxiety to keep children at school. The delayed opening of schools throughout the province, due to the epidemic poli, coupled with the fact that a new course of study had been prescribed for use in the schools, ap- pears to have created such concern in parents, pupils and teachers alike, that children have been permitted to attend when their "physical condition far from warranted it, lest they miss important lessons. ~ School health rules require that a child suffering from any illness<be sent home, but in many cases when this has been done, great anxiety and criticism of the ac- tion has beer evident in both child and parent. Surely if all parents would realize that children suffering any disorder, even a common cold, should be detained at home until fully re- covered, the result would not only be quicker recovery and less lost attend- ance for the child,- but- improved health for the school as a whole. Speaking of the health problem, I wonder how many of those reading the new course of study have observed that the subject of health is given first place. The problem of illness among school pupils is one of concern for both edu- cational and health authorities in Welcome to Your New Theatre! sound and perfect projection, strictly fireproof building. consideration.

Every child' must have a wide-awake communities. centres little attempt is made to keep down the number of days lost by pupils from illnesses which sre econ: sidered preventable, and because of this many cases of communicable dis- eases are not reported. Regardless of his academic stand- ing, a pupil, to be successful in life must be healthy. Many industries to- day insist on a complete physical ex- amination of all applicants for posi- tions, and usually only the healthy are employed, ' The average child should be born healthy, but small defects may occur in infancy. Early discovery of these usually means easy correction. The |} pre-school child should, therefore, re- ceive attention at a Child Hygiene Centre, and the mother given advice regarding correction of any' physjcal defects. Any dental defects should be looked after, In most urban schools this service is free to the pupils. It is hoped that this important part of the health program will soon be available to all pupils free, as much lost time is due to dental defects. The success of any health program in the schools depends upon the.co- operation of the principals, teachers, health officials and parents. - The closer these work together the less time will be lost in our schools be- cause of illness, much of which is pre- ventable.

It will require the development of close co-operation between municipal, pro- 4 vincial and federal police authorities, the school, and pro- bably most important of all, the home. Parents must develop a safety con- al sciousness and this must be trans-|4 mitted to the children by ceaseless warnings and admonitions. This must be followed by safety studies in schools, supplemented by lectures and motion picture displays on all the hazards to which child life is_ subject. There must be an interesting school safety bulletin service iwth weekly changes of material, The organization of boys safety patrols under super- vision of police officers in school" dis- tricts where heavy motor vehicle traffic exists. All this- would create in the young, flexible minds of chil- dren, a sort of "built in" Safety which would be ever present in their con- sciousness, and which would prompt them to always think and act in terms of Safety. Points For Parents from a School Viewpoint 1. Some children come to school suffering from lack of rest and sleep. Children, especially in the Junior Grades, require a good-deal of rest to :do their best work. | 2. Some children have too many outside interests. These interests may be good in themselves, but moderation is necessary." ; 3. Some parents are guilty of mak- ing slighting remarks about other people, both children and teachers, in the hearing of children, without con- sidering the impression made. 4. Some parents expect that all their children have equal mentality. Brothers and sisters differ. just as much mentally as physically. It is tragic to "nag" at a child whose mental equipment is inferior to his brother's or sister's, 1. Some parents make a big mis- take in "coddling" their children. There may be more annoying things than a spoiled child, but few more pitiful. 6. Some parents fail to provide proper atmosphere for children to concentrate. No child can study with a radio going full blast. This leads to hearing without heeding. ; 7. Co-operation and confidence make the best possible foundation fox proper- relationship between parents and children as well as between home and school.
