education,
Rev, J. E. Hogg presented the ad-
dress of welcome, Dr. Field, I.P.S.,
East Huron, gave an interesting ad-
dress on secondary education. He at-
tributed the remarkable increase of
pupils in .secondary schools to the
Adolescent Attendance Act, to the
abolition of fees, and to the greater
interest shown in education general-
ly, He stated that no county was
better provided for than Huron, with
three collegiate institutes, two high
schools and five continuation schools.
W. M. Morris, of Toronto, provin-
cial secretary of the association, in-
stanced the passing of the appren-
ticeship system to prove the neces-
sity of further secondary and tech-
nical education. He declared that
parents, school boards and the De-
partment of Education are all of one
accord as to the necessity of provid-
ing educational advantages for the
country children equal to those of
the urban centres, but the lack of
co-operation deterred success.
"So far as elementary education is
concerned," said Mei. Morris, "the
three -trustee school • board gives fair
satisfaction, but when pupils pass the
entrance examination they very often
have to go away from home. The
children of rural Qutarlg have an
equal right to high school advantages
with those of urban Ontario. The
Minister of Education has proposed
the township unit of school adminis-
tration, which I believe will improve
conditions; considerably.
NL. A. Campbell, of Milton, presi-
dent of the association, endorsed the
statements of Mr. Morris. In ,speak-
ing of boys and girls leaving the farm'
for urban occupations, he said that
education was not responsible, but
rather that the economic system was
at fault, and that if rural children
were given a higher education they
would themselves remedy : the eco-
nomic system, and thus repopulate
the farms.
Among the speakers were: Mal-
colm MacBeth, of Milverton, presi-
dent of the Perth Association;
Charles Robertson, M.L.A., •Goder- t
ich; Mr. Patterson, Huron County t
agricultural representative; W. G.
Medd, M.L.A., Exeter, and J. E. Tom, t
