FEDERATION DISCUSSES
THE BENEFITS FROM
NATIONAL FILMS
A review of some of the work that
is being done in the educational„field
is contained in an article; received
this week from the Huron County
Federation of Agriculture, describ-
ing the use of educational films.
National films at school tomorrow.
116•01' With what happy anticipation hund-
reds of rural school pupils in Huron
and other counties welcome the
monthly pictures. Films from the
'National Film Board of Canada are
rapidlybecoming a popular medium
whereby through the painless meth-
od of sound and sight, new worlds
are opened up and information is
planted in youthful minds, where
formerly lectures proved uninterest-
ing and ineffective.
A master of the Stratford Normal
School was recently reported when
referring to films as saying that in-
vestigation in the teaching of geog-
raphy had revealed that the same
class taught by the same teacher
knew 34 per cent more geography
when taught through moving pic-
tures. In army training camps it was
found that almost twice as much
information can be absorbed from
, • sound movies as from lectures.
This method of imparting know-
ledge has been a "dream. child” for
many years in the minds of many
Canadian educators, both of univer-
sity staffs and in provincial depart-
ments of education. This dream act-
ually became a reality in -December,
1941, when the National Film Board
began to take shape. H. Grierson,
Dominion Film Commissioner and
Herbert Lash, Director of Public
Information, decided' that talking
pictures, with the combined appeal
of voice and. visual image was the
bestmedium of carrying the mes-
cage of "Fighting Canada” from
coast to coast. Many interested folk
willingly gave their services to fur-
ther this project, In less than a
month 30 mobile units were on the
road. Three years later there • were
90 of these travelling theatres ac-
ross Canada in every province from
Nova Scotia to British Columbia.
Today in Canada a vast rural audi-
ence of 600,000 people see regular
notion pictures each month from
this source. Most of the films are
made in Canada. but some are ob-
tained from other countries, 'thus
covering a great variety of subjects
and meeting the interests of varied.
groups of people,
The majority of the films are made
for non -theatrical • showings. These
special films deal with many differ-
ent subjects but aim at definite com-
munities of thought and • interest.
o fim show-
ingThe principal purpose of, f
ing throughout the Dominion, is to
bring by sight and sound a thorough
coverage -of current affairs, national
and international, to the people,. who
will benefit most from this type of
education. In this way Canadians be-
come aware that their problems •are

similar as well as interdependent.
This' makes for better.understanding
and creates a more tolerant attitude,
so that problems are solved with
more harmony and to the mutual
benefit of all.
The _National Film Board oper-
ates three different types•of circuit,
Rural, Industrial and Trade Union.
In Huron county the rural circuit
has been chosen as most suitable.
Through the efforts of the Huron
County Federation of Agriculture;
the ,National Film Board has placed
a sound motion picture machine with
equipment in the county.
Pictures are shown each month in
the schools of the various townships
and towns of the county.
Among the films chosen are those
which cover the social studies of the
current school. term, Films of gee-,
graphical features, natural resources
and industries of Canada have popu-
larized the study of geography and
Planted the seeds of patriotism and
citizenship in many a good mind.
Pictures of food and nutrition
have been a boon in helping to per-
suade children to choose a health
diet which includes plenty of vege
tables and milk. Interest has been in
the establishment of rural dental
clinics through films.
The new era upon which we have
entered demands revised thinking
and new methods. And visual educa-
tion is rapidly corning to the fore in
our educational system as 'a method
of imparting knowledge that shall
be retained.
