WIDENING

dis-cussing ideas with others.

The methods of teaching the gift- ed child must. as has already been ' ” I 4. stimulate his creativity and take account of his larger in- terest-and-uttention-span as well as his superior powers of insight and generalization. Routine teaching of the drill type is not suited to the gifted child. However. he must be helped to learn to do tedious and monotonous work for a worthwhile end and to finish the tasks he has begun. lie needs to realize that adequate drill for the learning of certain facts and skills is some- times very important and be will- mg to do the routine work to mas- ter such facts and skills. CONCLUSION

May I now summn is: some of the concrete suggestions I have made.

1. The rural teacher needs help in setting up objectives for the gift- ed child. in identifying him. in ac- cepting him and in giving him guid ance. For this help he must look to his superintendents or supervis- ors of schools.

2 Either the Canadian Educat- ion Association or the provincial departments of education should prepare a small guide book for teachers entitled. Helping the Gift- ed Child in the small School. If the booklet is prepared on a nation- al scale it should be accompanied by a mimeo lupllli. sheet dealing with the local resources available.

3. The time available is only one element in the effectiveness of the rural teacher I: dealing with the gifted child. e teacher must. first of all. want to help the gifted child and. secondly. he must have guidance in how to do so. This. in turn. means that the superint- endent or supervisor must also want to do something for the gift- ed and have available the means of helping his A achers without too great a drain on his time. Back of the superintendents. the depart- ments of education must be will- ing to provide the suggestions and resource material which will enable the superintendent to do an ef- fective iob. Increasing teacher ef- fectiveness in teaching of gift- ed children is t really an extra. it is part of the Job of effective teaching. and the stimulation of the teacher to be resourceful with the 'gifted child will promote the teach- er's own growth and also make him a better teach of. event!

Cornerstone ls Laid For

Mayor Henry W. Wedge on Sat-

urday afternoon officially perform- Cli the ceremony of laying the cor- her stone at the new Civic Audi- -torium which is expected to be in operation this summer.

In his remarks Mayor Wedge. who is retiring from civic politics after six years as Mayor and twelve on the Town Council. said the laying of the corner stone would likely be his last official duty as mayor of Summerside. and added that he was happy that his term of office should end with this act.

Referring to the heavy loss suf- fered by the Town Electric Light Department in the sleet storm dur- ing the first of January. he said

that if this extensive damage could have been foreseen the Civic Ad- ditorum would likely never have been commenced.

.He said that while the building will cost a considerable sum of money. and that while in the light of present circumstances the Town cannot afford to spend that much money, he expressed confidence and optimism that the time will come when all citizens will agree that the auditorium is a tremen- dous cultural and social asset with a value well beyond its original cost.

Mayor Wedge concluded by say- ing that he could foresee many. many uses and tremendous possi- bilities for this building. which is

S'side Civic Auditorium

.near the new High School. and that in the years to come the en- tertainment, enjoyment. athletic and educational value that will accrue to the citizens will be be- yond abillly to measure.

The program was under the chairmanship of Councillor Dr. H. E. Clark. and the Summerside Sca Cadet band provided music for the occasion.

After remarks as representative of the contractors. the M. F. Sch nrman Co, Ltd.. Mr. Charles Link- letter presented a silver trowel to Mayor Wedge who used it in placing and levelling the mortar used in laying the large corner l.-atone on which is inscribed the name of Mayor Wedge and the date on which the stone was laid
