TORONTO, CANADA Principal of Unique Type of school! Makes Notable Impression at Toâ€" ronto Fair One of the exhibits at the Canadian National Exhibtion at Toronto las: week that attracted very considerable attention from thoughtful people was the travelling ischool car from the North. Ths travelling school cars do the lines of the Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Railways west of North Bay and Sudbury. They bring educational facilities to children and cthers who would otherwise have to go without education. In conjuncâ€" tion with the correspondence courses established some years ago by Prcoâ€" mier Ferguson, the travelling schools bring education within the reach of all children even in the sparsolyâ€"settled areas where the children simply canâ€" areas where the children simply canâ€" not get to an ordinary school. The Advance believes that the correspondâ€" ence <chool is doing simply wonderâ€" ful work, seven or eight hundred childâ€" ren taking the courses. And this means that 700 or 800 youngsters who would otherwise go without education. are able to secure schooling of the most helpful sort. But the travelling seem the more romantic and spectacular of these two aids to educaâ€" tion in the North, and in any case.it is the travelling schools that this arâ€" ticle.set out to speak about. Both the C.N.R. and the C.P.R. have coâ€"operated in every way, both as to expense and maintenance, in the matâ€" ter of the travelling school cars. The school cars are railway coaches speâ€" clally equipped for school purposes an. for living quarters for the teacher, The car was stopped at Toronto last week for necessary repairs and so came in for attention. The teacher in charge, Mr. Fred Sloman, was one of the speakers at the exhibiâ€" ticn and this also brought the travelâ€" ling school cars into special notice. In speaking to one of the Toronto newspapers, Mr. Sloman said, "Thers is our slogan," as he pointed to the words displayed on a sign in the car: "One million boys and girls for Canaâ€" da." He pointed out that in drilling the boys and girls coming to his "school," they are introduced to the country‘s leaders by use of photographs and stories. Object lessons are drawn from the accomplishments of states= men and financiers, health and social welfare leaders, outstanding men aiid women in all walks who have given their talents and energies for the good country. "There is our ‘fiddls‘> for teaching the numerals," laughed â€" Mr. Sloman, as he indicated the rows of coloured ba‘ls strung along wires which are accusâ€" tomed to humming when school is in progress. Mr. Sloman also showed the newâ€" paperman the private quarters used by the teacher and his family on the car. Small but cosy apartments are proâ€" vided. "See the baby‘s bed," he laughâ€" ed, "a dollar for the wheels and a dolâ€" lar and a half for the wood, all paintâ€" ed white, and mosquito netting over the top. Isn‘t that nexpensive enough?" One Toronto newspaper added interâ€" est and beauty to its article on the travelling schools by publishing a picâ€" ture of Joan Sloman, the fourâ€"yearâ€"old daughter of the principal of C.N.R. Travelling School No. 1. This little lady was introduced to the Lieutenantâ€" Governor and Mrs. Ross at the exhibiâ€" tion last week. ‘ Names of the provinces adom the fanâ€"lights, maps and spheres reveal the scenes of world events and "toy" deâ€" vices are employed for instruction in the three R‘s. The address of Mr. Sloman at the women‘s building of the Canadian Naâ€" tional Exhibition laist week was to many one of the big features of the Fair. He explained how the travelling school works in practice. It travels along the line, picking up children at certain lonely spots where settlers have located and visiting places where there are no schools and the children have no chance for education without the travelling car. Stops for a few days or a week or so are made at one point and then the car goes on to another place where the procedure is repeated, the pupils in each place being visited on a return trip, and in the meantime lessons being left with them to comâ€" plete before the car returns. At the exhibition Mr. Sloman said that the travelling school serves a further purâ€" poseâ€"it acts as a sort of community hall. "We have plenty of frills in our life," he said. Some of these were disâ€" missal of school at 4 o‘clock, getting the children out at 5, arrival of the popuilace between 6 and 8, cookies and coffee at 10. Big things in the lives of a humanity starving for knowledge and sympatiy of the outside world. Children of foreign parents, and often the parents themselves, asked all sorts of questions at the school car. They were usually eager to learn English and to get as much education as posâ€" sib‘e. Mr. Sloman told about one evenâ€" ing when 32 men and women called at th> "schoolâ€"house" just to chat with each other. On another occasion 24 watched the production of a fiveâ€"minâ€" ute film from a kaleidoscop2 which the LO.DE. has sent him. Five times they saw the caperies of Felix the Cat. Thrilled. So much so that when it was discovered that four Frenchmen in the district had nct seen it, they all returnâ€" FROM NORTH AT TORONTO d man. wh>o had not séen ra now. The LODE. had .

Sseveral references ‘have been made in The Advance to the value to the North Land of the recent tour through this country of the party of daily newspaper editors. The following is the way it appeals to The Orillia Newsâ€" Letter:â€" "Sault Ste. Maire has "put over" the biggest and most successful piece of publicity to the credit of any municiâ€" pality in Canada. Under arrangeâ€" ments made by a local committee which secured the coâ€"operation of three railways, it obtained for five days the exclusive attention of editors or feaâ€" turse writers from the major portion of Ontario‘s daily newspapers and two representatives of organizations coverâ€" ing the whole Canadian newspaper field. A swing around Northern Onâ€" tario by way of North Bay, Timmins, Iroquois Falls, Cochrane, Kapuskasing, Hearst and Michipicoten culminated with a big reception at the Sco, where Premier Ferguson stepped into the picâ€" ture at the most opportune moment to announce that his Government was tired waiting for someone else to supâ€" plement the offer from the Province of a bounty on iron production and had decided to itself make up the aâ€" mount of one per cent. per unit which mining men say will assure developâ€" ment of Ontario iron properties on a large scale. "This for nearly forty newspaper men Much Publicity for the North From Editors‘® Tour Read how one woman lost 28 lbs. of fat, without diet, without dangerous drugs or exercises. "Not unly hundreds, but thousands of columns of copy about Northern Onâ€" tario and Algoma will be written for Ontario papers about the wonders of the district. Promoters of the tour made no attempt to disguise the fact that they were looking for press supâ€" port and publicity but their frankness, the scale on which arrangements were carried out, and above all, what they had to show were, beyond a doubt, convincing. "This for nearly forty newspaper men who had spent approximately five days marvelling at the extent of and wondâ€" ering what could be done about the deâ€" velopment of the natural resources of a country in which iron properties held especial prominence. "It was J. W. Curran, of the Sault Star, who conceived and carried out the ‘ enterprise." NATURE NOTE ABOUT TOAD TAKING ROOM AT KIRKLAND All real information in regard to naâ€" tural history matters comes from people making notes of their own observaâ€" tions. Some of these notes show strange facts. One such note, publishâ€" ed in The Northern News of Kirkland Lake, would appear to indicate that toads are "homeâ€"loving bodies." Here is the note from The Northern News:â€" "Recently a resident to the south side built rnismall add*ion: ta his home and in course of so doing cut a hole through the ficor to provide a place for keeping perishable provisions cool. Through the hole came a toad, which after a general survey of his surroundings deâ€" cided that one of the bedrooms was a comfortawble place of residence. The householder however had other ideas on this point and carried Mr. Toad outside. The next day he was again found in the bedroom and again carriâ€" ed outside. Not to be denied the toad returned again and yet again. Not deâ€" siring to kill his visitor, nor willing to allow him lodging space in the house, the owner determined to take him so far away from the house that his reâ€" turn would be improbable, and accordâ€" ingly carried him from the house, across the nearby creek and into the bush, a distance of about a quarter of a mile. Four days later Mr. Toad was back in the bedroom as happy and hoppish as ever and wearing the same happy and contentéd smile. While quite well pleased to have the toad in his bit of garden as a guardian against the desâ€" truction of green stuff the householder objects quite strongly to being flouted by Mr. Toad and plans to take him still farther away. Will Mr. Toad come back?" In a Safe, Easy Way for nine years when he saw him on the screen. For Mr. Sloman takes pictures of all children and folks along their route. He expressed his hearty gratitude to the I1ODFE. which had assisted to ncbly in the work in the north. NEWS: the contending had no suitable Poet is trying to Blazovyshchen News:â€"Upon hearing forces in Man battles song., the a long hur Odd thefts are reported from time to | time, and to the list now may be added the theft of a $500.00 rock drill taken from a construction job at Kirklard Lake recently. This theft of the drill would suggest that contractors in Kirkâ€" land Lake would do well to see t.hatl their tractors are well lockedâ€"up at nights and that the board sidewalks ini _the town are alil well nailed down. The News describes the theft of _ the rock drill as follows:â€" m n uce es ut L L Ee e es "During the night of Wednesday, September 4th, somebody apparently considered that he had a better right to the new $500 Ingersoll Rand drill | which the McNamara â€" Construction Company had along with two othersi in operation cutting out the rock on Government rd., near Beauchesne‘s Gar l age, for the installation of water main and sower. The drill had been left on the job, already connected up, when' the workmen quit. In the morning it ; was missing, during the night it had been disconnected from the hose andi carried away. The two older drills had ) been left alone. The serial number of the drill is known and the police are making an effort to locate it, and h ; reward of $100 has been posted by the Company for information leading tol its recovery. Rock Drill Stolen at Kirkland Lake Recently The Goldfields Drug Co..s fiveâ€"mile road race is now definitely announced to be held on October 2nd, commencâ€" ing at 4 p.m. The road. race grew from the popularity of the big swim last month at Golden City. many of those interested in sports suggesting that a marathon would be equally popular. For the big road race on Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 2nd, there will be four cups given, . It is likely that other special prizes will also be offered for the event. Entries will be received any time now at the Goldfields Drug Store for this big road race. The race will start at the Goldfields Drug Co. store on Third avenue, and the course will be via the Vipond to Schuâ€" macher and return to Timmins. Report for the Month of C.A.S.

Children in Shelter durmg month Children boarding out . , Cases under the Unmarried Pax- ents . Act):.... An unusual and very interesting story comes from Orillia. It refers to a big bull moose that has apparently been adopted by a herd of cattle on a North Orillia ranch. The ranch is owned by James Hallet and is situated near to Orillia and north of the town. Visitors to the ranch have the remarkâ€" able privilege of seeing a fullâ€"grown moose browsing on the grass in the pasture in company with a large herd of cattle. The cattle seem perfectly contented to have the big moose with them as a member of the family, as it were, while the moose on his part seems to be equally wellâ€"satisfied with his brothers and sisters, or halfâ€"brothâ€" ers and halfâ€"sisters in the adopted family. It is stated by the Orillia Newsâ€"Letter, in mentioning the naturâ€" al history not referred to, that alâ€" though deer and wolves have become fairly numerous in Simcoe County durâ€" ing the past few years no moose has ever been seen this far south within the past half century.
