Luckily the question of a raiseias well as my fifth grade pupils-- in salaries didnlt come up at tliepeven many of my sixth graders.” dinner party for the Island teach-iTlie answer. to my satisfaction,
ers during their annual convention last week. They seemed to be get- ting along all right .the way they were-bright-eyed. well-fed a nd dressed charmingly! However, per- sonally I believe their appearance was a, tribute to their ingenuity Infl good-taste rather than their incomes! '
I noted something about the teachers not more important-ap- pearance is an index to morale- but equally significant. In the work- shop or discussion group I attend- ed (typical of others) the teachers were truly interested in profession- al problems. "Can't we have more demonstration lessons during the year?" they asked. "Can't we have eicning courses. week-end courses, more summer courses with credits lending to higher certificates and in further improvement for those who have first class license'!" It was suggested that a money bonus be granted the latter as a recognit- ion of the time, effort. and money involved in taking these courses. 4This is done in some schools, I believe). BRIGHT CHILD
l was particularly-interested in I question concerning the bright child. "I have a very bright boy in my grade III." said a one-room rural school teacher. "Do you think
was, "yes, let him go along with .the higher classes in all the sub- ijects where he can do so without lstrain."
l From the. question. I gathered there is no fixed official policy in this matter and that teachers can use their discretion. in the rural school, especially in the one-room rural school the answer given above, seems to me a very wise one. The bright child can go along intellectually with the older pupils in the higher grades and still trilog- le on the playground and in social activities with his own age group. This arrangement seems ideal un- til the time comes for the hriglit child to leave the rural school. If the higher school has planned for it and he is still able to "act his age" socially and emotionally while going ahead mentally. it may work out fine. But there is danger if he is suddenly thrown entirely among much older boys and girls.
Later. in personal conversation with a friend. also a one-room rur- al school teacher. the question of the slow-learning child came up. ”Do you think I am wrong." asked my friend.” in giving a girl in my eighth grade much higher marks than she deserves and passing her along though she isn't ready to grade 9 at the end of the.--term?

WARBLE FLIES
Anyone seeing a Warble Fly any- where in the Province looking es- pecially fat and healthy had better grab it quick for it will hold its fair portion of the thousands of dollars consumed by warble Flies at the expense of the P.E.I. Dairy Ind Beef Industries. You won't be able to sell it for nearly that much. for no one wants it at all. The warble Fly is an astute little in- sect; it heads for the expensive cuts of meat and beds down there until it is ready to break through the hide. There is an automatic minimum loss on every animal showing warble Fly damage of at least five dollars.
The telling sign of a warble i1y in a lump on the backs of cattle. Treatment should begin, says Mr. Lobay, when the holes in the hide are about as big around as a lead pencil. For best results 2 or 3 treatments should follow at 30-35 day intervals as long as live grubs are present. The thief is persist- ent. and while one treatment helps it will not stop the criminal,
The best and safest insecticide to use is derris or rctenonc mat- erial usually sold under the name of warble powder or warble wash. in smaller herds and dairy herds the best method of treatment is to prepare I wash solution and scrub it over the backs of cattle with I stlff bnish which has been dipped into the solution. The brush should open the crust which covers the holes or "lumps". Even the dry powde may be rubbed into the holes. It is essential that the insecticide in wet or dry fonn pen- etrate the opening in order to kill much more effective than I pris- the grubs. This has been found In term for the culprit.
For larger herds it may be more efficient and economical to use I weapon such as I high pressure lnrayer capable of delivering up to 000 lbs. pressure. Specially Im- rared retenons powders are do-

fully belongs. I agreed that the course my friend had taken in this case and planned to take was I kind one-and sensible too. Whom could it benefit if the girl was stamped as a failure in the eyes of her little world? Of course they knew she wasn't bright-she knew Rx all too well herself. but there would be fewer daily humiliations (1 believe) if outwardly at least she was sitting among those of her own age and passed along with them.
ONE ROOM
.Out of the questions concerning the bright and the slow-learning ehlld came to me a new insight into it possible advantage of early education in the one-room rural school. Not only is the country es- pecially the farm. a wholesome background. generally speaking. for a child. but hasn't the bright pupil much more chance to go ahead mentally and the slow child more chance to go at his own pace. where all grades are found in one room?
