LOOK FOR IMPROVEMENT
SOON
The Canadian Conference on
Education met for a four day ses-
sion in Ottawa recently.
Approximately 1,000 persons,
ranging from house -waves to pres-
idents of universities, were invi-
ted to express their ideas. Their
suggestions for improving our ed-
ucation varied from Dr. Hilda
Neatby's• plea for greater emphas-
is on intellectual contend: to the
rather picturesque contention of
another delegate that the evils of
our society spring from co-educa-
tion and the too great number of
female teachers who fail to instil
the manly virtues in our young
men students.
The Conference did agree on
several facts, however. First, that
the need for more. adequately qual-
ified teachers exists and must be
met. Second, that to establish a
really good system: of education
we are going to have to spend
money—a great deal of money.
J. A. Fergusun, former president
of the Ontario Federation of Agri-
culture, presented the views of the
Federation. The Federation sug-
gested that a minimum education-
al goal should be set for rural
people so that every one should
receive at least Grade X academic
schooling, plus at least two years
vocational training in agriculture
or domestic science. He pointed
out that the excessively high• rate
of early drop -outs in rural areas
might be remedied by the estab-
lishing of Junior High Schools.
These would serve as academic
high schools and also provide aux-
iliary vocational services.
There was almost complete
agreement on the teaching of
French in English schools and
vise versa. It should begin early
enough to become a living, spoken
language, not just a dead text -
hook course. It. was suggested
that Grade III would be the right
grade to begin this. Lack of qual-.
ified :teachers is an obstacle, but
teacher exchange programs as well
as the use of television, radio and
records might help to overcome
it.
There are, unquestionably, go-
ing to be great changes in our ed-
ucation system 'soon. Education
is everyone's business, so consol-

EASY DOES IT
With house-cleaning just around
the corner, it might be a good
time to pass on a few cleaning
hints;
An excellent woodwork cleaner
is made of one part vinegar, one
part kerosene and one part water.
It cleans, without removing the
shine from the paint.
For easy and satisfactory wash-
ing of windows use four table-
spoons of liquid ammonia to a
gallon of warm water; polish with
a htnbless cloth or a piece of news-
paper.
This may be rug-makingtime
for some of you. After cutting
strips of various colours, try plac-
ing each color on a newspaper
folded in half, rolling the news-
paper and putting a rubber band
around it. Now stand the rolls
upright in a cardboard box and
you have your stripes easily seen,
neat and orderly,

ST. PATRICK
You may wish to think for a
moment on this March 17 of the
few facts that books tell us of
that saint, dear to all the Irish,
St. Patrick,
St. Patrick was .the British ap-
ostle who converted' Ireland to
Ohristianity. There were Christ-
ians in Ireland before this time,
but they were accounted heretics,
and St. Patrick was sent to spread
the true faith. He is said to have
founded over 360 churches and
baptized more than 12,000 people.
He was thought to have been
.born in Kilpatrick, on the Clyde.
The date was about 390 A.D.
when Britain was still under Ro-
man accupation. While yet a
boy, he was carried off to Ire-
land by raiders. He escaped af-
ter six years bondage.
Later, as the resultt of a dream,
he formed the ambition, to return
to Ireland to preach Christianity
ta. the Irish. It was not till he

Gives Support To
Two Missionaries
At a recent meeting of the Zur-
ich Mennonite Church, the mem-
bership decided to increase its mis-
sionary giv&ngs to include the sup-
port of Rev. and Mrs. Hubert
Swarrtzentruber, missionaries in
St. Louis, Missouri,
The Swartzentrubers, who are
members of the Zurich Church,
were commissioned last October to
meet the spiritual challenge of a
new housing area accomodating
some 27,000 people.
The Mennonite Church is one of
the few protestant churches to be-
gin work in this area. The plan
is to erect a church building when
an adequate fellowship of believ-
ers has been established. Presently
the activities are conducted in a
rented building.
was over 40 that he was made a
bishop and allowed to return to
Ireland having spent most of the
interval in study and meditation
in Gaul.
St. P'a•tri.ek died in the spring,
when the shamrocks were bloom-
ing everywhere in Ireland. Legend
tells us that he drove out the
snakes .. which infested Ireland.
Since he also brought peace, the
emblems the snake, pipe and
shamrocks are ail associated with
his name.
