Among other things it would pledge all 1 United Nations members not to use force it threat of force in ways con- trary to the U. N. Charter; not to foment civil strife in other countries; • to carry out international agreements in ;good faith; to promote human rights; to grant free access to U, agencies; to .restrain the use of the veto; to allow free exchange of in- formation and to allow U. N. control of atomic energy.. If Russia is ready to perform these essentials, their prqposed. 5 power pact is not necded. * darkened or poorly lit snire windows, there has nnt been the desire for folks to window shop with a resultine 'tack of pre-N.:Inas bey inn.

Buckingham Palace, on Nov. 14th, Prince Charles, Philip Ar- thur George, was the tiny host at a .11 birthday party, His mother, Princess Elizabeth, was on hand to assist in receiving his guests. Lending a help- ing hand too were his nurse, Helen Lightbody, a detective and a young footman. The guests included Princes Richard and William, sons of the Duke of Gloucester, Prince Michael of Kent, and 2 god-children of Princess Elizabeth. Members of the Royal fam- ilp called with the exception of the Queen Mother, who was confined to her home with a slight cold. The in- fant Prince was taken earlier to visit her. As at all children's birthday parties, the two highlights were his 'birthday cake and his pretty presents. He was given a chance to blow out the big orange candle atop the 40 lb., birthday cake, but to taste it was not yet his privilege. Rum, the traditional navy drink was used to flavour the cake instead of brandy in deference to the Prince's father. Thousands of birthday greetings and gifts came from all parts of the Commonwealth, including many from Canada. The gifts were opened in the infant Prince's nursery by his nurse in the presence of his mother. Among the presents was one sent by air mail from his father, the Duke of Edinburgh, on duty with the Navy in the ,Mediterranean. The wee host was by no means a talkative one as his vocabulary yet is limited. He says distinctly these words, mum-mums for his' mother, papa for his father and nan for his nurse If If tee If If If If If at and weighs 241-ei lbs. Up till now his El life has been as carefree as possible ..y, though even his nursery days are gov- erned by strict rules as to feeding. g clothing and sleeping. His bedtime. is lee never delayed and he is never, under any circumstances, disturbed after it. M' Already the Prince has a batman. He is 15-year-old Michael Sawyer, 19+ son of a Chatham policeman, who join- a N. ed the staff at Clarence House recent I'd et lv as a "trainee nursery footman." It is Michael's job to keep die pram spic I and span, care for the infant Prince's , Ite,F clothes and play with him. It is re- , ported that the two are "great pals."' ti The Prince, who some day may be king of Britain, will inevitably, as be grows older, be subjected to more dis- cipline than most children. Like his ref parents and grandparents, he will be 4; rigourously trained for a life respon- 'N' sibility and service in which pleasure r; will be secondary. His education will eli be comprehensive with special atten- , V; then given to character- building and deportment. From the age of six, he will have a governess and at ten, a tutor. In due time, he will probably go to Eton and eventually follow his father and grandfather into the Royal Navy. i n grade 13 to grade 11 and 12. The courses of study prepared by the de- pertinent of education will be moth general. With the exception of the basic subjects, reading, writing, and .ke arithmetic, the responsibility for in the details of the courses will be el left to local groups who will take into consideration tile needs and condi- tvIntZ%0 tuns of their own commuraties. In • various subjects new phases will he O. taught to keep up with our own times. For instance, in geography, the old text book in use fot. so lung will be scrapped. Instead of teaching the pupil incl.) that the danger of exhausting those resources and methods of con- serving them. These changes contemplated for a long time, should have many advan- tages. The complete sequence of deVel- opulent in education front kindergarten to university should work out well for both pupil and teacher, The four div- isions will overlap, allowing prepara- tion in one for the next without any sudden changes, It is a course of study which can be terminated with some' meaning at the intermediate stage and will provide a diploma or certificate for the student leaving school at the age of 16, For those continuing, the inter- mediate course is varied enough to provide a period in which students can select the course in which they wish to specialize. In this new approach to education it is hoped that some pro- gressin getting away from mass edu- cation will be made. In the primary division 8-10 pupils from three grades are to be grouped together under one teacher. SOMC subjects will be taken together, others in age groups. The more brilliant students will have a chance to go ahead under superviion and those who have difficulty with cer- tain subjects may resort to a lower age group for them. It is well known too that motivation in learning is very important. The leeway that will be given to the different communities in filling in details of subjects taught should make learning and teaching easier. Surely the boy living in or near Timmins would want to know something about mining and the boy attending Wingham High School would be interested in 'Agriculture with its many phases. * * * SAFE DRIVING COURSES OVERDUE The twin cities of Kitchener and Waterloo have the distinction of being the pioneer urban centre in Canada in the establishenent of safe driVing courses in the secondary schools.

One of the largest insurance companies quotes figures to show that youthful bad driving adds more than 4 3/4 million dollars per year to the cost of private automobile insurance. Drivers under 25 have an accident record at least 50% worse than the general average. A study in Ontario revealed that drivers in the 18-24 group caused 83.3% more high- way fatalities than their share. The high insurance premium thus caused would pay the salaries of enough instructors to teach safe driv- ing in every provincally controlled secondary school in Canada, -tatetVetelgenzielMICEle , _ -,voczatz-lg , IT'S TIME TO Think of Christmas As much as the gaily decorated Christmas tree, Holly and the Poinsettia Plant are synonymous ORDER, YOUR Flowers Decorations EARLY, to avoid disappointment.

JOHN MILLS * • ONTARIO'S NEW SCHOOL PLAN A far-reaching revision of Ontario's school system and curriculum was .an- nounced last week by Hon. Dana Por- ter, Minister of education, before a meeting of the St. Thonias and Elgin Teacher's Association. The new system has five importaant changes. The entrance examinations will be abolished, doing away with. any distinct jump from elementary into secondary school. The _grades, which now run froth 1-8 in public school and from 0-13 in high school, have been regrouped into four divisions, prim- ary, grades 1.3; junior, grades 4.G; in- termediate, grades 7.10; senior, grades 11-13, The teaching load in the higher grades will be 'redistributed by reduc- ing subjects taught in grade 9 and by transferring some that are now taught Lightbody.
