In discussing arith •ns etie Mrs, Jerilyn said being able to. practically apply numbers to circumstances is of far greater value before the child begins grade one than simply being able to count to 100, From her experience the grade one teacher said it was quite apparent which ehildree have attended kindergarten be- cause these children have learned s i in p 1 e instructions such as sitting still or listening to what is told them.

European countries.Some of the scenery during the trip. he described as "absolutely thrilling". As far as living con- ditions are concerned, however, he says Canada remains a Ma- try of luxury. Following the crossing of a stormy English channel, the tour went directly across into Switzerland, then through the wealthy summer resort area along Lake Maggiore in Italy. In both Italy and Switzer- land. Mr, and Mrs. sturgis found scenic agriculture coue• try with beautiful vineyards. In Rome, along with the ruins, the couple were impressed \kith the size of the open-air opera which permitted a east of 1,000 to perform to an audience of some 40,000. Preparations for the Olympic games erected by Mussolini and churches also were viewed „n Rome. They saw hardly any houses in the city and discovered that the people live almost entirely in apart- menta. In Florence, views of the art treasures were a highlight. The shops there were found to be remarkably small, to the ex- tent that only two customers could enter at once. Crossing the Alps to Aust- ria was delightful, thanks to the scenery, and the trip through Austria was a highlight of the tour because of the hospitality, cleanliness and excellent food in that country, Back in Switzerland, the Sturgis's were impressed with the clean, wide streets of Zur- ich, In France, however, they found the villages run-down, old and dirty. "Paris generally didn't look very good to me, although per- haps my impression was prej- udiced by our poor accommoda- tion there. The city was dimly lit, dirty and not very impres- sive," Mr. Sturgis recalled, The period spent in England was marred by cool, wet weath- er but the couple enjoyed sev- eral tours. one into the lake country and another into Sus- six, where they attended the festival modelled on the one in Stratford, Canada, and feat- uring some of the top theatrical. names in England. While in London, Mr, and Mrs. Sturgis attended a num- ber of the current musical hits, some of which featured Canad- ian talent, and enjoyed leisurely visits to the city's landmarks.
