DISCUSS FEDERATION AIMS AS HURON - PERTH MEN TEACHERS MEET Latest developments in the Ont- ario Public School Men Teachers' Federation were discussed when William Lively, Toronto, address- ed the annual meeting of District 15A of the federation. . Comprising the public school men teachers of Perth and Huron counties, the district meeting was held at Hotel Clinton, Clinton, on Wednesday. -President Maitland Edgar, of Cnton, was nhairmntr. The guest speaker vali'd is the assistant secretary of OPSMTF, was introduced by Grant Kropf, of Stratford. Mr. Lively brought greetings from President McCallum, of Wind- sor, and announced that Mr. Kropf had been appointed to the Provin- cial Board of Governors to replace a member who had taken up teach- ing duties overseas. The speaker reported on the two basic aims of the federation: To promote and further the cause of Education in Ontario; and to guard and guide the interests of the members of the Federation. He stated that the first year of operation of the Provincial salary policy was tending to raise the standards of teachers because it necessitated improved qualifica- tions before a member could ex- pect to reach a new salary plateau, Teachers have to give boards more for their money in higher qualifica- tions. OPS has entered the field of Summer Schools in Educational Philosophy and Psychology. How- ever the most highly acclaimed work was that in School Admini- stration run by the OPSMTF. Plans are already being made to conduct this course plus a course in class- room practises for teachers in Grades seven and eight. The meeting was told the federa- tion is studying a proposed. list of qualifications for Elementary .5eb- ool principals and has Made it available to districts for discuss- ion. Seminars in various brancaes of education have been conducted by the federation and in-service train- ing sessions for new teacher have been begun in several places in the province. The activities of the federation in dealing with the salaries, rela- tions cases, and superannuation of its members were related by the speaker. Mr. Lively completed his address by emphasizing the im- portance of the Teachers' profes- sional body having control over the certification of its members and stated that only in this way would the teachers truly belong to a profession. \ A lively discussion, followed con- cerning some of the points men- tioned by the speaker and referred to the district for discussion.

Associated him on the general committee are Eric Monroe ;and 4.. Chesney. Asks Question Alarm Results One of the means adopted by Seaforth firemen to place emphasis on fire prevention week was the distribution of questionaires to district school children dealing with various aspects of fire prevention. One of the questions asked what the fire alarm telephone number is. In telling of the incident, Fire Chief Scott said one lady was so interested in co-operating that she phoned to enquire and in the process, set in motion the alarm procedure. The result was the brigade was summoned by a false alarm. "We don't mind the false alarm." Chief Scott said, "when it comes because people are really trying to help in fire prevention." 66 in Family Mrs. C.

"In the autumn of 1931 a series of articles on 'The Canada Com- pany and Anthony Van Egmond' was contributed to the Huron Ex- positor of Seaforth by Wilfred Brenton Kerr. A file of these arti- cles is preserved in the Ontario Public Archives. When I read them there recently, my first thought was, what a pity that such an excellent piece of research in the early history of Upper Canada sheuld not be available for a wider circle of readers. With this thought - in mind I decided to suggest to the author that he expand his account and publish it in book form,—but only to learn that he was no long- er living. A native of Huron county and member of a family who made a notable contribution to the early settlement of that district,' Mr. Kerr, after study in Oxford and a year on the staff of the University of Toronto, was for some y'ears before his death proffesor of his- tory in the University of Buffalo. "Colonel Van Egmond having been revealed to me as such an outstanding figure in our early history—and, as I have found, so strangely unknown to Canadians today—I determined to try my- self to fill the gap by writing a concise sketch of his life. And here I wish to acknowledge my great indebtedness to the late Pro- fessor Kerr, without • whom this little book would not have been written. I have pared down sta- tistical details, amplified the his- torical background, and printed in full, as an appendix, Van Egmond's long letter to John Galt's successor, Thomas Mercer Jones, which is the one extensive written docu- ment from Van Egmond himself and which was found on his person when he was taken prisoner after the final clash between the loyalist force and Mackenzie's followers at Montgomery's Tavern on Yonge Street on December 7th, 1837. This document ,is of cardinal import- ance not only for an understand- ing of Van Egmond's mental con- dition in the closing stage, but as a firsthand comment, by a lead- ing participant, on the political conditions at the time" Check Vandalism In Townships Provincial police are investigat- ing a series of events in McKillp and Tuckersmith which resulted in public property being damaged. Provincial Constable Helmar Snell, who is investigating, said windows had been smashed at Duff's Church and nearby SS 4, school in McKillop. In Tucker - smith fence posts were broken off at SS 5 School. toward the Lions Pool Fund: • JOHN BEA'rrlL, for many years a well-known Seaforth business man, who celebrated his 89th birthday on Sunday.
