there has always been a good deal of criticism over the fact that text books are changed so often that they cannot be handed down in the family local trustees have no jurisdiction in this matter which is handled entirely by the department of education perhaps the minister of education hon w miller who has been converted from a conservative to a liberal will now give the parents a break by calling a halt to this annual changing of text books there was a time when a sixyearold could start out to school with a pencil scribbler and a few crayons now it costs 7 to start them out and we doubt if they

many things go into makin childs day mothers often think of curing for their children ill terms of nourish ing meals attractive suitable clothes a eomfortabe bed and a place of his own in the home itut happiness woven in and out throughout the experiences of the childs day is very important too frequently emotional upsets or un desirable habits can be traced back to inner turmoil aud unhappiness what are some of the elements which make for normal growth and a happy day for the average pre school youngster he needs to know what to expect in his day thats where a routine comes in not a very rigid one where mealtime cannot change by five or ten minutes when an un expected event occurs nor such a flexible one that is scarcely sched ule at all but a routine whereby a child gets up goes to the toilet washes dresses has his breakfast and carries through the res of his day with the minimum of direct commands mother doesnt have to be continually giving him orders be cause his meals play time rest etc follow a fairlv similar pattern each day another constituent in a happy lay is lots of activity out of doors a child wants to run and swing and slide his hi crae exercise in the fresh air and a or girl needs a sufe place for ta- outside and enough play equipment to defeat boredom a homemade ladder a slide a little play house a sand box a barrel with the ends knocked out a ball large blocks perhaps made out of boxes form inexpensive outdoor play material a child can use to advantage of course he requires suitablo indoor playthings too and if pos sible open shelves to house his treasures orauge crates painted a bright colour form excellent shelves for toys and blocks paints and cray ons plasticeue blunt scissors paste a scrap book and old magazines from which pictures can be cut a black board and chalk all these are constructive toys which keep small fingers occupied they spell many happy moments in the childs day after a child is two and a half or three he begins to long for a com panionship his own age he discovers it is more fun to play with his oy9 if another youngster is also playing in the same yard or room when he gets a few months older if he lives in a district where there are other children he seeks their company but the biggest factor in a small childs happy day is a loving re lationship with his parents mother and dad loom so large in his small world before he starts to first grade if he is accepted as he is with his faults aud failings as well as his good points if he receives praisa when lie deserves it and lots of af- felion he is likely to be able to echo christopher kobius thanks for a happy day what about your small sons or daughters day if they play and could write an account of my day muscles i would it be a happy one
