The proposed new P. E. I. potato rates--subject to review by the board of transport commissioners -chlefly affect the Canadian Na- tional Railways, which hauls most of the potatoes out of the Island.

The agreement. it was believed here, will have the secondary 91. feet of removing most. of the graundii for a dispute between the C. N. R. and Island potato ship-r pers that fun been going on for about three years.

This dispute Item: from the fact that for many years. for freight rate purposes. the Island has been divided into two zones. which took different rates on the shipment of vegetables out of P. E. I.

Education Week. Much 1-is

Education Week was initiated in 1936 by the Canadian Teachers' Federation Its purpose is to focus attention upon the achievements and problems of education and to urge the public to give special attention for this one Week to the work that is being done by our schools.

Our special feature this week is an article by Dr. Frank Mac- Kinnon. Principal. Prince of Wales College. entitled, "Some Thoughts For Education Week."

some Thoughts For Education Week Dr. Frank MIrKinnon Principal. Prince of Wales College

It would seem that every week since this time last year has been an "Education Week," for there has been so much discussion on the subject that education has been front-page news in every part of Canada We no longer requiri- remlnders that "education is everybody's business: rather it is now everybody's business to see that the right kind of education is emphasized and that the an- propriate personnel and facilities are provided.

This obligation has awakened in Canada and the United States I lively controversy which in turn has brought out the need for sub- stantial reform. Recent months have seen the publication of count- less books and articles: and news- paper editorials everywhere have revealed that public opinion on education has changed sharply aiirl rapidly in the last three years. Public iiitr-rest is illustrated by tho fact that A. E. BI-stor's "Edu- cational Waste-lands." an American criticism of modern pedagogy and educational administration. became a bestseller in nne month. and Hilda Neatbyls "Sn little for the Mind" sold two editions and three nrintlngs in three months - surc- IV a record in this country's piib- llshing business. There is no point in ignoring or condemning this controversy: rather those iiitcrcsi- eel in education should sltidv if carefully and resolve it wisely.

Education Ind Civilization

The "crisis" in education is par! of ii crisis in civilization as a whole. Despite all the physical devr-lop- ments of the twentieth century. civillzatioii is in real d'inl:Pl' of moral and cultural rr-lliipse. and the future of freedom is iin(-er- tain. Modern statesmen. lilstnrinm. and philosophers are unanimous in maintaining that man has for- gotten to manage hiirfsclf heforn attempting to manage his eiivirnn- merit.

Twentieth century education has been following in some wins the same trend. Study of environ- mnnt has often prccednd study of

life itself; "interest" has some- times replaccd knowledge: "know how" has nvershadowrd "know

why": and what is socially acccpt- able has often replaced what is right or what is good. Education is in danger of becoming R con- trallzed standardized process of

distrlbutiong ready-made opinions and nicely-packed facts to passive.

The Research Institute of Sblll-i ford University. Ciilifornin. lizis carried out a comprehensive sur- vey of United States wagcs, pro- duction. cost of living and simi- liar investigations in Canada and Europe,

Roughly sin-akiiig it lias ii:-rn found that the workers in ccntral Canada produces four-fifths as much as thc United Slnlr-s work- er. and earn four-fifths In much. Little diffcrence was found in pro- duction costs in the two countries. and not much difference bctwccn the wnrkcrs' huylnrz power on lll(' two sides of the boiindary: ccrt:iin- l-v not as much as is commonly believed.

There never was a time in the history of this Province that the clly on Island roads. when mixed vvth water (lid not make spring wheeling a nightmare. It is as- tonishing that so many people react as though our seasonal road problems are I phenomena. our roads are improving in direct ratio to the amount of money spent on them. Most middle--aged motorists can remember when it was quite a stunt to negotiate Finiu-gnn's Hill at Vernon in April or even as late as May.

receptive young people so that they will "fit" into I standard series of social machines. There is now I general and growing concern lest this process will result in the submerglng of the individual and the loss of freedom so essential to modern democrscy. "The modern man," says Albert Schweltiier. everywhere recognized as one of the world's greatest men. "is lost In the mass in a way which is without precedent in history . . . His diminished concern about his own nature makes him susceptible. to an extent which is almost. pathological. to the views which society and its organs have put. iciidy made, into circulation." O O C

The challenge of modern edu- cation is to meet the challenge of modern civilization. Young people need to think so that they can un- derstand what life is about and appreciate the significant things in a world of radio. television, newspapers. commentators. adver- tisers, organizers. societies and propaganda, so that they will live and not merely he led. Thev need to work so that they will get privileges. rewards. and security by their own efforts. the only real method of securing satisfaction in life. They need to gain an ap- preciation of what other races. creeds. groups and individuals are doing and thinking.

Above all they need humllitv be- fore God and God's other children. so that they will realize that the greatest things in life. including the peace of the world itself. are to be gained only through love and its prercoiilsltes. tolerance and re- spect. "Humility." says.) B. Brebncr. the distinguished histor- ian, "is the most solid common ground on which to build frec- dom." What is too often forgotten is that humility is the first es- sential of education: without it there is no education.

Though, work, experience, and humility, then. are the funds- menlals of education as a pre- paration for living. and school and college curricula should be de- signed to encourage all of them.

It seems appropriate here to ex- amine the main question which lie br-hind the current discussions a- bout cducatlon. One thing. how- ever. is clear; the discussions should not be permitted to obscure lhc Very effective work of count- less schools and teachers and the excellent qualities of thmisai-ids of young people who show every promise of succeeding in life. Arr propriat:-ly. most informed critic- ism nf education has been design- ed. not to attack the schools. t:-achers, and pupils. hut to pro- tcct them from external forces which weaken them and frustrate their host efforts.

What kind of Education?

Like everything else in life. edu- cation should be Judged by the quality and utility rather than the quantity. For example. the number of years a young person is phy- slcally present in s classroom is in itself no indication whatever of the education he gets It is what hr gets, how he gets it, and what he will do with it that counts.

it is to changes in winds and tides. . . .

of the Canadian hockey club at Stockholm by the Russians. For the past few years there has been steady criticism here in Canada. of tho cnllbrc of the tennis which are being sent to this annual hoc- kry tournament. No great effort seems to have born made to send an nutstzinding team to Stockholm. As ll result Canada suffered I hu- miliating dcfeiii. It is no consola- tion to know that this country could probably send a dozen teams to Eiirone which could beat the Reds. The hard fact remains that Canada was beaten at her Nation- nl g:-mo. The commies of course will play the victory up as proof of the superiority of Soviet vniitli over the decadent youth of the democracies.

Education Outside of School

In this connection we are -N, inclined to look on the school in the sole source of education. That one goes to school to "get an cdu. cation" is the popular concemw. Actually a young person's mm; school is his own home and hi.- chlef teachers are his pan-M. Parents have thn sole Cllslody ,.r their children from age one to s:v and I child's attitude to life i, largely determined in that period During school years only about one-eighth of a young persons time is spent in school. 'r.-.,,;.. honesty, love. tolerance and olu.--V vlrtues are acquired at home more than at school and. without these. school work rests on a shaki- foundation.

A fathcr who doesn't encouraza his childrcn to do chores RTOllll'i the house and assume some i-.. sponalblllly. or a mother who inn often prefers the pleasures of lhn afternoon bridge party or czui. meeting to the sunervislnn of hp.- famlly are nr-glcctlng their part, of the educational proc:-ss and 1-,. naive to expect the school always to make up the deficiency.

By and large young people who learn at home. who share in fam- ily responsibilities. who gnln ox. perience in slimmer jobs have l);'p. parations for life which llwv mu never get. in nny school. and lin- lack of these things is tha hi”..- single caiise of differences nmrm; sudents in school.

Home education, however. :1.-in not mean over-parenting. The child should be encouragrd '1 work himself and not at the dictation of a aollcitous or am- bltiaus parents. Over-parenting too often results in failure when tho. child gets to the uflbcr grades or leaves home.

Individual effort in school anrl at home is too often dlscoiirnzrrl by the dependence on curricula and textbooks. These are merely skeleton outlines designed'-toorr:an- lzc learnng. - guides to liirilwr sources of knoivlrdge szzidcms. teachers, and parents who (irpciid on them alone are attempting ((1 get I good meal by merely memor- izing the menu.
