Our genial teacher, Mr. Jos. Stalker, who has worked alniostun- tiriugly during the past year in the in- terests of the pupils under his care in our public school, sentup five for Sec- ond econd Class Certificates and met with most ungratified success, four out of the five being successful, thus demonstrat- ing beyond any doubt not only the true teaching qualities he possesses, but . also the intellect and perseverance of the pupils he prepared for the work. We congratulate Mr. Stalker upon this most gratifying result of his labors and when it is remembered that in addition ho had iu course of preparation pupils for the Entrance and Public School Leaving examinations, besides full charge of the pupils in tho Junior classes, the result must be doubly gratifyiug. It is doubt- ful indeed if any institution in Ontario striving to meet the demands of the Education Department in Junior Leav- ing work has to its credit any higher percentage than our P. S. can claim. We are pleased to know that the trustees of this section are wide awake enough to recognize a live teacher such as Mr. Stalker and have secured his services for the year 1901.
