Told Of Rural High School

“‘We are no longer in a horse- and-buggy age for education,” taxpayers representing some 31 school districts were told “H" Hunter River last evening.

That rural children should have the same educational opportuni- ties as city children, was the theme, of. Rev. E: Foster Hall, chairman of a committee formed earlier this year to consider pos. sible educational reforms in the area.

The problem is that there has been a much greater drop-out of student in the rural schools than in urban ones, and High School youngsters either drive into Queen Charlotte High School daily, as a half-dozen from the district do, or go to Stella Maris, where two are’ now attending Grade 10, he said. .

A few months earlier, Mr. Walker would have accepted ‘this | a8 provocation to give his Irish! temperament full scope for an at- tack. But he blandly ignored it.

He wound up his tour the next day on an even more concilia- tory note.
