With the idea of further encouraging and inspiring them in their efforts the Provincial Chapter instituted a series of special prizes and iv od ships to the value of $150 and $30 respectively. The special prize of $150 1s awarded upon the recommendation of the local school inspector, for two or more years service in a for- eign settlement along this line. Al- ready five of these special prizes have been awarded. ters have been received from several of the prize winners which show their keen appreciation of having their efforts recognized. Ouse of these letters is as follows: "The problem of tke foreigner is a great one; greater than we rea- fize, In Alberta, we have over 60, 000 Ukrainians who occupy, rough- ly speaking, a block of land sixty miles square. They have brought with them customs, morals and re- ligions that are in many respects a century behind Anglo-Saxons. A Ukrainian missionary told me they had no traditions, or what we would call such, They had no King Arthur, or St, George. The only tradition was oppression. This op- pression was somewhat lessened before they came to Canada, but it left such a scar on their charac- ters that it will take generations to erase. From oppression they came to freedom,--the freedom of thir vast Western Canada, and as one would naturally expect, many do not know how to use their liberty. These people are in such a solid block that they cannot change in one generation. The only points of contact are the few English and half-breeds amongst them, and many of these have mot been very good examples. It remains for the few Canadian teachers to carry the best of our Canadian culture to this great mass of people; teachers with a true British spirit who will sympathize and be of practical ser- vice."

In the photograph small fifues are seen putting finishing touches to the keel, | Guardian, new From another teacher comes the following: "In regard to conditions in this district my pupils are Roumanians and Ruthenians but principally the former, There is not an English- speaking family in the district, We have a two-roomed school and one hundred pupils of school age. The other teachers have usually heen New Canadians, and I have found them willing and really quite anx- fous to help in every way they can to make the children more like English Canadians. I can do very little with the older women of the community, as very few of thew understand English and I, of course, do not speak either Ruthe- nian or Roumanian, but through the children they can be greatly helped. In addition to our regu~ lar school work, we taught some music and nearly all the young people enjoy singing, We iso teach them knitting, patching, darning, and cooking. I hope vy another year the school trustees may build a cottage and make the present teachers' shack into -a kitchen, where we may do sume- thing fn the way of providing a hot Tunch, as the children have to come from long distances, and very lotten carry only a piece of bread for lunch." As an incentive to other teach ers to take up this work, as well as helping those already in the field, the University of Alberta has ur- ranged a special 1.0.D.E., course in Canadianization at their summer school, where the teacher is given special instruction in the following subjects: Special methods of teaching in Non-English schools, Pri- mary English to pupils of for- eign origin. Industrial art methods for rural schools, In. addition to the above, scu~ dents are permitted to choose a fourth subject from the regular curriculum which they think wouia be of the mest service to them in their work. Fifteen teachers have already taken this training and ten scholarships valued at $30.00 each have been awarded. In addition to these awards, the personal touch is being maintained through the Chapters of the 1.0.D. E. who correspond with the teach- er and In this way find out means of helping her in her work. Gifts of books and pictures have been found particularly acceptable in these foreign settlements as the only opportunity that the children have of becoming familiar with English literature is in school. A further development the work among the foreign-brn is the formation of an 1.0.D.E, prize fund for the purpose of stimulating and encouraging native arts and handicrafts, several prizes having already been awarded.

And of these nations only nine have ratified it unconditiop~ ally and put it in operation. According to the International Labor Bureau here which has just | completed a fresh survey of the world-wide situation as regards the eight-hour lahor day, the principal difficulty in securing the ratifica- tion and application of the conven- tion has been the failure of the larger industrial nations to take the lead in the matter. Of the 14 nations that have rati- fied the convention only Belgium, Bulgaria, Chile, Czecho-Slovakia, Greece, India, Luxembourg, Portus gal and Rumania have ratified it unconditionally.
