Mrs. R. E. Pooley read an art- icle written by. Mrs. Clarence Knight,. RR 1, •Hensall, in the Free Press Prairie Farmer of May 3, emphasizing that the best gift par- ents can give theirchildren is a desire for learning. It stated that one of the greatst burdens teachers have to bear is the child that ar- rives at the school totally unpre- pared for what should be the great- est experience of his life—unpre- pared in the sense that he does not realize what a pleasure and joy learning can be. A further quote was: "It is of prime importance to provide our children with a sound liberal edu- cation, an education which would seek to develop the characteristic excellences of which men are cap - able, and its ultimate end should be human happiness and the wel- fare of society." Mrs. Ed. Sillery discussed the motto, "If you plant character in your institute, it will blossom in your community." Roll call was answered by naming an outstand- ing world citizen, and Mrs. Hugh Love commented on current events. Mrs. Harry Strang led in a sing- song.
