facct of Guidance business and workers aremore effective when they are oriented The same thing applies to school children Mr Clute referred to children having been taken to school be fore they were old enough to at tend regularly entertained and sustained with milk cookies lc to give them feeling that they wanted to startschocl This and outer efforts made them feel happy When they started school rather than strange and fresh Certain testsare used such as intelligence or aptitude and ability tests to givesomc idea as to ability to learn school wo while useful they are not fallible GROUP WORK in group work teachers can find all sorts of ways to discuss with students various matters which worry them the students Mr Clute quoted an example the time where very famous hockey player gotinto serious trouble through losing his temper the ice and because of the nterest most kids had in this player the guidance teacher could make clear his point re garding control of temper He said that counselling is the most important phase of guidance and quoted several instances relatv ing to the difference between counselling and interviewing Mr Clute gave it ashis opinion that true counselling only oc curs when the person coniuetled develops more power to make his or her own decisions rather than rely on third personto Imake those decisions Mr Clute concluded with reminder that guidance is

who chose to forcgo an evening of television programming to learn more about the education of their children Mr hfacLean entitled his ad dress The ModernEducation of Your Child covering the wide field in most complete and at sorbng fashion He spoke first of the necessity for educating the whole child and began by tracing the growth pattern physicallymcntally and emotionally from infancy to the maturity of adulthood So con sistent is the pattern of behav iur said the speaker that standards at each age have been set up By means of graph hfr lMacLean went on to describe Igrowth in the to accepted fields and noted the hearing each had on the behavior prob lems and learning capacity of the child Lymphoid growthvrea ches peak at 11 years iteural growth is fairly constant but lgreatest in the first two years of Ilife genital growth shows rapid aturiiig from 14 to 18 physical growth is rapid in the first and second year with great spurt at puberty it is with regard to the latter that our present pub school system errs in placing the greatest work lnad on pupils in theyears 12 to 16 when so much of their energy is required for growing he said Experiments are now being condigted where pupils will fpfete public years thus placing the work load at an age when the body is more adapted to cope with it said the speaker ENVIRONMENT Parent and teacher provid die enVironmentjn which child grows Food fear lack of affec tion and security all effect the child physically psychologically VA hrigadier who served Camp burden as commandant of the Royal Canadian Sdlool of Infantry from 1953 to 1955 and who is at present corn mander of the 4th Canadian Infantry Brigade Group on NATO duty in Germany will attend the 1961 course at the Imperial Defence College England nut January is

Park gt and on over nilpersonality Mr hfachan then turned to the difference in boys and glrls Girls can learn more easily in primary school Their emotional stability and maturity is greater However boys catch up and ex cced the girls in later high school and college Extremes in any direction for either sex is unde sirable whether it be in size in tclligence infmvert or extrovert personolty Parpnts will do well to note that the greatest alngie cause of mental illness in child is over achievement on the part of the parent he said IN BARRIE Summing up the speaker re lated his talk to present dhy schooling in Barrie The grade system today is no longer capab In of dealing Willi children of our present society said Mr Mac Lean He spoke of the remedial program in the schools and the acceleration and enrichment pol icy for gifted pupils and the learning capacity tests and their value He told of tentative plans for an ungraded class Grades 15 in Oakley Park School next year subject to theapproval ol the School Board and parents for pupils who would fit most by individual attention and Wop1m at their own speed REPORT CARDS In conclusion Mr Machean returned to the controversial question of report cards As an illustration of the incomplete picture anyone examination can fienrhetold of ane in which three experienced qual ified teachers marked the same examination paper in
