Macpherson Phone 708, All Departments Europe's Methods, Education Ideas Althouse Topic p---------- : Ideas gained from a tour of schools on the continent during the past summer were presented at the Rotary Club's "Education Night" in the High School last night, by Dr. J. G. Althouse, Chief Director of Education for the province. *, "The three ideas that he admitted filching from schools in the United '&ingdom and Denmark and Sweden "were, (1) that schools should provide a wider varlety of course for students of all types, (2) 'that the school as a comm centre was something deserving at- tention, and (3) that the school "provides a splendid opportunity for teaching students gracious living, as opposed to mere subsistence. The Education Night was put on by the Rotarians, and the guests at : dinner were the stafls of the , tby schools, the Board of Edu- 'pation and the te School . d, and the wives of the Rota- iy They were introduced to the :pathering by E.

Graham, princi 'pal of the High School, ' Amazingly Good 'Choir 'A special musical feature of the 'pvening was the two songs t. ed by the choirs of Grades 12 and '13, under the direction of their 'music director, Mrs, Vernon Rowe, who seemed to have raised the level :of musical instruction in the schools 'to heights undreamed of a few years :8go. At least it would appear so from the splendid performance put on by the boys and girls of the 'two grades last night. .

Canadians Are Relisble He concluded by saying that ideas in education were not all a one way traffic, He explained that the Canadian soldiers had made a fine name for themselves overseas, be- cause of their reliability, and educa- tional authorities abroad were in. terested in the system which had produced such men, He emphasized the fact that Canada's reputation is higher than ever on the con- tinent, Dr. Althouse was thanked by the applause he received, and for the Rotarians by Dr. F, 8, Mills, F.

TH BI0CEST HIT EVER Fao Purchased For Stock Farm At Myrtle Station G. M. Brawley, Toronto stock broker, paid $1,400--the top price for the day--at the Royal National Ayrshire Show at Oakville last Saturday for "Syke Kate Imp" consigned by R, Ness and Sons, Howick, Quebec.

Col. W. E. Phillips of Wynyates Farm, Oriole, purchased the second highest-priced heifer for $1,075. Assisted by Secretary-treasurer Louis Northam, Fire Chief Wm. Heard completed his annual fire in- , | spection of Whitby's public build- ings, stores, plants and schools. According to the Chief, the surprise visit revealed few faults, and the townspeople generally are to be complimented on their awareness and avoidance of fire hazards, Time tests taken at the schools were satisfactory although clear- ance was generally slower than last year, King Street School had the best record, evacuating the building in 50 seconds, an improvement of 10 seconds over last year's test. Fire Chief Heard felt that this rec- ord, in a school heavily over- crowded was commendable, Dundas Street School was emp- tied In 45 seconds, St. Bernard's Separate School in 25 seconds, and High School in 1 minute and 4 sec- onds and the Ontario Ladies' Col- lege in three minutes. In one of the schools it was found that the alarm could not be heard through- out the school and Chief Heard rec- ommended that this condition be corrected, : Fire Chief's Inspection Reveals Few Faults -- But Restaurants and stores in the town were given a clean bill, Chief Heard felt that the hardware stores deserved special mention for the good' housekeeping displayed in ev- ery case. Although homes were not inspec ted, the Fire Chief felt that care fn the home was as important as in recommended an inspection by the head of the house and the removal of fire hazards usually found in homes, A few things to look for are given below, 1, Examine stove pipes for leaks and insecure fastenlings. 2. Light no fire in a grate without a proper screen, 3. Light no fires with kerosene or gasoline, 4. When burning deaves, do not burn a large pile at one time, it is safer to light a number of smaller ones, 5. Do not leave a rubbish fire un- ti1 it is burned out, 6. Allow no accumulation of pa- per or rags in your home. 7. Examine all electric cords and repair or replace damaged ones. One Hundred By G, M.
