Big Opportunities Seen For Pastors

Recalling that war was raging across Europe when plans were laid for the foundation of McGill Unl- versity, Dr. F. Cyril James, Mc- Gill principal, told the graduating class oi McGili Presbyterian Coi- lege st the 73rd annual convoca- tion Tuesda night that “when nations are ranking up, there ex- lotl s vast. field for creative work." The principal said he would not extend his sympathy to the stud- ents because they were graduating "at a. time when every hour brings o. new crisis, because it is‘ gener- ally during such a period the church has proved its power to establish peace and create u new order in the world."

Dr. James admitted the duties which would confront the gradu- ates were difficult. but believed

sion and would devote themselves to rcachi-y; peace, goodwill and u erstan lug between nations and

men.

"It will not be a small task. but

then it is not a small ideal," said the principal. Dr. James said when James Mc- Gill made his will which laid the inundation oi M06111 University, another dictator was marching across Europe and Canada's free- dom was threatened. It was dur- ing those years, however, that, the roots of the institution were sown. The s ake also recalled that during t at; period the church was at. a very low e b, and mic his- torian wrote "it was hard to find a gentleman and impossible to find a Christian."

Concluding, Dr. James told the students the world would be look- ing to them for leadership and would expect them to pin, a pro- minent part, in the erea. on oi a new order.

“You will have a. hard task, but. nothing holds greater promise than to achieve the purpose for which the church is designed." he ualdcd.

ALDERSHOT. April ll-(CP Cablcr-Licut. J. H. Tremiblay, 1e- electcd to represent Grouard as a Liberal in the Alberta Legislature although on active service over- seas, tonight expressed his "hearty citnnks to my wife and son and friends of Alt-Pita in general and Grouarrl in particular for their work and support."

when the officer of the Edmon- ton Regiment, 1st Canadian Div- islon. was advised by The Cana- dian Press that he had been re- turned io the Edmonton Legisla- Lure by four votes, he disclosed lie had arranged to be advised reg- ularly by mull and cable when nc- cessary on matters of political moment.

He also ls receiving a steady ‘flow of Alberta. newspapers. , Lieut. Trcmblav said he regard- ,ed his success as a victory for ("the principles of party govern-

ment which history has proven to

be best."

“The day will come," he said.

"when the whole of Alberta. will ucalize these are best."

l In the Alberta. election of March 21 the Grouard vote was: Lieut. Trcmblay. Liberal, 1,965; J. A. ivtaurice, social Credit, 1.981 (sec- ond count).

He was elected to the Alberta Legislature at a by-election in i Dcccmbcr, 1936.

mended that, "At whatever the

cost the schools must be kept open under qualified and efficient per- sons, if the country is to be saved from illiteracy and ignorance. They also stated, "Many ‘teachers are leaving the profession, with disastrous results to educational progress“ and further "The teacher in the schools ought not to have to ask for money." Others should do it, and the country should, with- in limits, readily admit and satis- fy the claim. They stated also in part that there was, “practically unanimity expressed to us on the necessity and desirability of in-

x creasing teachers’ salaries."

Our educational officials for the past few years have been ve em- phatic ln their demands for tter

trained teachers. With that end in view a Teacher Training Depart- ment was opened a few years ago in P W. C, Presumably then we have at present a. better-trained body of teachers entering our pro- fession. But, what effort is being made to retain their rvices?

Studying the forego ng compar- isons one is struck with the fact that it is among our better-trained, more-experienced teachers that the heaviest reductions in average pay have taken place.
