Also the writer understands that Dr. Bette Stephenson, Ontario. Minister of Education and. also the Toronto Board of kation ' have the same feeling . on - this question. Irning, which should be the aim of teaching is best accomplished where there is a friendly feeling of corn - passion,' co-operation: and mutual respect between studentsand teacher. In our estimation even the presence of the strap without its use is not conducive to this situation. Rather it brings about fear and dread m some timid students . and with them mental scars which may last a lifetime.

On the other hand we often hear "Spare the rod and spoil the child; which is a phrase this writer cannot find in the Bthle. The nearest to it is in the Old Testament Proverbs 19, . verse 24 in regard .toa father and his son. Through the years in teaching Ab Wylds has found that Christian comparison is the way to make teaching an,, enjoyable experience for all. concerned Andthere he rests his ccs? against the strap as abrutaldevice, non® conducive to learning, the way Ab Wylds sees it anyway.

Huron Township. The first red wmgedblack bird made it back to Ripley last Sunday. There he was in the trees and on the hydro wires loudly proclaiming the arrival of himself and spring. But he must have been mistaken for by noon it was snowing like mad. What amazes us is how does he findeach year that little wild apple tree where he and his mate build their nest and. worse still, how does he remember to get up on the hydro line to dive. bomb Ab Wylds for the past five years at least. On Monday of this week Niels Frederiksen of Malcolm Street started back at. the Kincardine Golf and Country Club to get things readyfor those early spring golfers.
