List Three Proposals At Meeting
SEAFORTH - Three possible
plans for modernizing the school
system in Tuckersmith Town-
ship were discussed Wednesday
night by township •counell Mem-
bers and representatives of the
township and area school
boards.
The three plans proposed:
Construction of a consolidated
school in Tuckersmith Town-
ship to serve all rural students;
an addition to the school at
Egmondville to serve rural stu-
dents in that area, with stu-
dents th the Hensell area at-
tending scbool in Hensall; con-
etruetion or one large school
Which vvouid serve rural stu-
dents in both Stanley and
Tuckersmith Townships.
No decision other than to
have further discuseion on the
proposals was reached.
' j. G. Burrows, Exeter,' school
inspector for the southern por-
tion of Huron County, told
those at the meeting that con-
solidated or central schools re-
sult in more specialized trainang
up to grade eight. Because of
this students have a better
chance of learning, he said,
Mr. Burrows outlined what
percentage of the cost could be
regained by the selrool board

er and the children were re-
ceiving a good education.
However, he predicted' this
attitude could easily change if
the present teacher was lost anti
a replacement had to be found.
"Central schools are natural-
ly more attractive to teachers
and you get more applications
and a better choice," he added,
Mr. ' Coulter noted rural
schools were almost exclusive-
ly depending upon married tea-
chers at the present. "And
thank heaven for them," he ex-
claimed.
But, he added that this supply
was "drying up", due to the
fact young female teachers
were not coming into rural
areas as before and were not
augmenting the cycle where
they were married and settled
down and then returned later
to 'teething in that area.
He further explained that at
Teachers' Colleges, there were
lineups of graduates waiting for
interviews with central school
boards, while only one or two
were wanting interviews with
rural school boards.
Hes argument was backed up
by some trustees who reperted
difficulties in securing goad tea-
c:hers, and another trustee ques-
tioned if any had ever had
an honours graduate apply for
a job.
No replies were heard to that
question.

if he felt a teacher could get
better results teaching in one
class as opposed to teaching all
eight classes.
"Do you get better results
with a tractor or a team of
horses?", the inspector asked
in return.
He used this as an example
to point out it was difficult 'to
determine what results could be
attained by the same teacher
in the different situations, but'

went on to explain why he felt
graded schools were better.
He noted that each teacher
had the same number of min-
utes in a day, whether at a
central or rural school.
Taking a hypothetical ease,
he noted tthat a teacher would
possibly have 160 minutes each
morning. In a rural school, this
had to be divided into eight
grades, making 20 minutes for
each.
This again had to be divided
into the number of subjects the
teaeher had to teach each grade
in that morning.
Teaching Different
Mr. Coulter also noted that
teaching today had changed
considerably since the days in
which most ef those in the
audience had been educated.
"The world we knew is no
longer," he stated.
He wenton to explain that
children of today were taught
how to use fact, rather than
stressing the importance of
them knowing facts.
• "That to ine plays up one of
the advantages , of a central
school," he raid, "because pup-
ils of the same age are brought
together."
He stated that pupils learn
from each other "as much as
they learn from teachers".
He added that only five out
of every 100 elementary stud-
ents th Chrtario were attending
rural schools.
Same Rate
At the conclusion of his in-
formal address, the inspector
told the aedience that he would
predict no major raise 111 taxes
far education in the township
if a'central school was built.
"I predict if you go for a
central, school, the mill rate will
be betvveeri 12 and 13 mills," he
said.
Meetings!
Last year, the average rate
in the Township was 12,9 mills,
varying between sections from
a high of 20 to a low of 8.5.
"It won't make any differ-
ence one way or the other as
far as money is concerned," he
commented. He said that some
would argue that they were
paying for it anyway through
sales taxes and such, but he
contended that they may as
well enjoy the benefits of their
taxes, rather than only paying
for modern schools in other
sections of the province.
Mr. Coulter said that with
334 students in Hullett, an 11 -
room school and an auditorium
would be sufficient and the "05P -
proved cost" of this would be
$240,000.
He presented "estimated" fig-
ures sboveing that the cast of
operating this would be $100,000
per. year. This included annual
debenture debt payment, trans-
portation, salaries for teachers,
empties, maintenance a n d
books.
The audience was told that
on this there would be an an-
nual grant of $67,000 approxi-
mately, leaving the township to
make up about $33,000.
This compares with the $32,-
891 that the ratepayers raised
last year 'for educating their
elementary school pupils.
Mr. Coulter also noted that
$11,500 110 repairs had been ep-
ent on the existing schools in
the past three years.
More discussion followed and
Glen Carter, who is in section
4, where the students are trans-
ported to Blyth, stated that he
had yet to find one paxerrt who
would want to have his children
go back to a one -room school.
