ALL LIS'T`INGS OF CANADIAN BROADCASTING' CORPORATION
PROGRAMMES, AS FROM APRIL 24, WILL CHANGE TO
E.D.S.T. THE DAY DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME BECOMES
EFFECTIVE.
SYMPHONY 'ORCHESTRA IN TWENTY-FOUR WEEK SERIES.
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation will act as host to an
international radio audience during a twenty-four week ` series of
symphony concerts, starting Thursday, May 5, 9.00 to 10,00
E.D.S.T, and continuing until Thursday, October 13.
For the fifth consecutive season, Reginald Stewart will conduct
the Toronto Promenade Symphony Orchestra in weekly concerts from
the great indoor arena at University of Toronto, and for the first
time since this summer symphony was established broadcast audiences
of the United States and Canada will hear the programme:
This broadcast series has beenmade possible through the suc-
cess, of negotiations between the CBC and the TMPA, which has
sponsored the Promenade since its establishment. Other famous
Canadian symphonies are to be heard following this summer series
and it is expected that next season the broadcast audience will hear
the famous Toronto Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Sir
Ernest MacMillan, in addition to symphony orchestra presented from
Montreal and Vancouver.
THINGS TO COME.
.A. glance at the advance prograrne schedule -of the .Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation reveals that some very interesting broad -
east features have been arranged for .listeners. To list a few:
Thursday, April 21, 7.45 p.m.: "Ocie Matters Musical."
First of series of talks by Dr. Healey Wilian,
Friday, April z9, 6.15 p.m. (EDST): "About Poetry."

Tuesday, May 3, 3.00 to 3.30 p.m. (E.D.S.T.):
His Majesty the King opens. the British Empire Exhibition at
Glasgow.

"Blossom Festival Chorus". From St. Catharines.
Monday, May 23, 6.30 to 6.45 p.m. (E.D.S.T.) : Special broadcast by
' Lady Aberdeen, to the National Council of Women of Canada
who are meeting in Vancouver. From; BBC via trans-Atlantic
beans.
In the column last week it was announced that the King's mes-
sage on May 3 would be heard in Canada at 6.00a.m. The Corpor-
ation has decided that, since this would be an unsatisfactory hour
for Canadians, a re -broadcast instead would be presented over the
national network 3.00 to 3.30 p.nr. E.D.S.T. with another, for the
benefit of those unable to hear the first at 9.00 p.m. E.D.S.T,
CBC PROGRAMME IN BOOK FORM.
"Romance of Sacred Song", the GEC programme written by Es-
telle Fox and presented 'every Sunday over the national network
from Vancouver, is the basis of a book, by that author, which has
just been published. The book contains the stories of famous old
hymns which Miss Fox has dramatized for radio during the last few
years and, in addition, contains four hitherto unpublished stories of
Canadian origin.
AND THEREBY HANGS A TAIL.
What happens when two broadcasters get in a charitable mood
at the same time? They buy dogs. At least, that would seem to be
the case unless Ted Briggs, of CBO, Ottawa, and D'Arcy Marsh,
Corporation commentator, were setting sonie sort of precedent, Any-
way, when a much of -a -tail -wagging dog was offered them the other
day they bought it for two dollars cash because "It looked hungry
and friendless". But the acquisition was. not easily disposed of, so
the two benefactors, neither of whom has accommodation for pets of
this description, tossed a coin to determine the canine's piaster. Ted
lost the toss and now he has "Seebeoh" trailing him wherever he goes.

A Brighter Outlook
For Education
Today, we are faced with three out-
sbanding problems in the field of'edu-
cation. These are. curriculum, edu-
cational finance and educational ad-
ministration. With further changes
that are now being worked out, the
curriculum problem will be largely
solved. 'There still remain the prob-
lems of educational finance and, ad-
ministration.
For years the greater part of edu-
cational costs has been borne by real
estate. Taxes have became very heavy
and relief is anidously sought by all
home owners. The daend at the pre-
sent time in, regard to educational
finance is toward a greater measure
of state support similar to the sys-
tesns in vogue in the majority of Eng-
Iish speaking countries. This will be
realized when one observes that the
provincial grants ` to education in
1885, 1916, and 1935 were $366,270;.
$1,281,986 and $4,793,198 respective
ly, There Can be no doubt that the
government is aware of the need for
relieving the taxpayers' burden.
Hand in hand with a more proges-
sive system of educational finance
must be included a more modern sys-
tem of educational administration. It
is an accented fact that all children
are entitled to equal educational op-
portunities. It is also an accepted
fact that the movement of the popu-
lation from rural to large urban
areas has reached alarming propor-
tions during the past quarter of a
century. It would appear that an
oustanding contnibutary cause has
been the type of education offered
to rural children. In order to im-
prove the educational services offer-
ed to.our rural boys and girls it niay
be necessary to institute a different
system of educational administration
with 'due regard to efficiency, effect-
iveness
ffectiveness and economy.
One of the great barriers to pro-
gress in any field is lack of unity.
This has been true in the field of
education. For years there have been
numerous edu;cationsl associations
and organizations in: the province of
Ontario but there has never been any
definite fmrn of unity. The result of
this has been that each group from
trine to time forward to the Depart-
ment of Education certain resolutions
which may be contradicted by resolu-
tions forwarded by another group.
The task of estimating the wishes of
the Ontario people becomes very
difficult under these circumstances.
It would seem most logical to bring
all these groups together and create
a strong organization, qualified by
numbers and representation to speak
for the province in natters pertain-
ing to education. The teachers and
trustees are not the only people in-
terested hi etlucation. Councils,
Boards of Trade, Manufacturer's,
Service clubs and rural organizations
are most vitally interested. Would it
not be sound common sense to amal-
gamate all existing bodies and invite
in other groups so that by investiga-
tion and conference we might decide
what the best interests of education
really are and then carefully and
judicially arrange the most suitable
programme?
This year the Ontario Educational
Association at the Easter Convention
in Toronto will discuss a proposal to
re -organize into five Departments
that will include all Inspectors, Tea-
chers, Trustees a u d Ratepayers,
Home and School Club members and
all other organizations that are in-
terested in supporting• a move to give
the best type of edudation to our boys
and girls. The Board of Directors of
such a New O.E.A. would then be in
a position to carry to our officials the
considered opinion of all classes.
During Easter week thousands of
progressive teachers, trustees and
ratepayers will meet hi Toronto. For
three days they will discuss hundreds
of problems. The O.B.A. has been
able to secure many outstanding edu-
cationists to assist in these discus-
sions.
It is the hone of every citizen in
Ontario that this year's convention
will be a marked success and that it
will assist in developing a loyalty to
British traditions; a more practical
and progressive educational system;
a more sympathetic understanding
between teachers and trustees and
in all be a decided influence in help-
ing to mould a finer character in our
citizens of tomorrow.
Creep Feeding the Sucking
Pig
(Experimental Farms Note)
Compilation of litter data at the
Dominion Experimental Station, Ros
them, Sask. reaveled that creep feed-
ing the suckling pigs gave heavier
pigs at weaning, greater uniformity
within the litter, lessened mortality
and less drain on the system of the
sow. Moreover, acquaintance with
feed prior to weaning resulted in no
setback in gains, and the total feed
consuniecl by the sow was less. Creep
feeding is looked upon with much
favour by farmers who consider hogs
one of their main enterprises, as it
eliminates sudden .changes in feeding
practices anci rations and results in
more constant and consistentdaily
gains in weight.
The average weaning per pig in
numerous Inters having access to the

TELLS THE
STORY
• Do you now need one or
more new tires? If so, re-
member this ... Goodyear
makes eight different types
of every popular size tire ...
at a price range to suit every
purse!
For example: Just look at
the above, reduced from an
actual contact print, of Good-
year's famous "G-3" Ali -
Weather tire. See how that
wide, heavy tread rides on
the road ... look at those
large non-skid diamonds ...
the wide riding ribs.... the
narrow grooves. The wide
centre -traction tread pro-
vides more grip for
quicker starts ... faster stops
. with safety! Inside this
famous tire you get the ex-
clusive Goodyear Supertwist
cord construction in every
ply ... plus the extra pro-
tection of two cord breaker
strips under the tread.
Like all Goodyears, "G-3"
is "tops" in its price class.

creep was 36.4 pounds, many pigS
averaging 45 pounds and one entire
litter of seven averaging 50 pounds,
while in the case of the litters having
no access to creep feeding during the
suckling period, the average weight
per individual was only 24.2.pounds:
a difference of over 12 pounds in
favour of the creep -fed melding pig.
The weaning date was 56 days in all
comparisons made..
Since a critical stage of a pig's life
is from weaning to 90 days, the gains
made in weight during this period
more or less regulate the subsequent
rate of gain of the litter. The im-
portance of having the young suck-
ling pigs well acquainted and accust-
omed to skims -milk and meal prior to
weaning is therefore apparent. Find-
ings indicate that the heavier pig at
weaning is not so subject to scouring
and digestive troubles. In large lit-
ters the.young piga started to take.
milk and meal at two to three }weeks,
whereas litters of four to six pigs
hesitate to take feed in the creep for
the first four or five weeks. The
meal ration fed in the creep should
be law in fibre content, the following
being used with every good success
at this station:
100 pounds sifted, or hulless
oat chop
50 pounds, middlings
' 50 pounds shorts
2 pounds fine bonemeal
Care should he taken to see that the
feeding utensils and troughs are kept
sanitary and clean for suclding pigs.
