The upit system, it was pointed out, helps the child who is not so bright as the others sc that they are not called upon to face from time to time frustration and fail- ure. The unit system, Mr. Hough- ton said, was not a programme of skipping classes as many of us knew it in om time. But rather, was it designed to help all pupils to do all the work of all the grades. He was pleased to mote that greater care and thought was being given today to the im- portance of education for pupils of all ages under the most favor- able conditions.

It was their duty, also, to give the teachers some guidance so that in their pro- gramme for the children under their care they might be helpful. Inspectors had much correspond- ence to answer including many departmental reports to be made out, and from time to time they held meetings with teachers, It was their duty also to assist school boards wherever possible a they deal with uch problems as providing for increasing school| populations, the erection of new| schools, the selection of sites and| many ethers.

Following a plea by Crown Attorney Alex.- C. Hall, QC, that an exemplary sentence be handed out, Bruce Douglas Linton was sentenced to the maximum term under the charge of which he was| convicted.

In his defence, Linton, William Kellogg and David King all stated they had heard Watson be advised to mind his own business. Linton, they said, had not touched Watson. Calling not only for a conviction on the charge but also the maxi- mum jail term, six months, Alex. Hall, QC, crown attorney, claimed that such actions as these "will undermine all constituted authority in this county." He cited the Criminal Code and pointed out that anyone who fails to assist a police officer when called upon to do so can be sentenced to two ears.
