As a followup to the recommen- dation of the Canadian'Education
Conference in which it was hoped that. equal educational opportuni-
- ties would be made available to
children in all parts of the coun- try, K. A. Parker last night spoke to the Home and School Associa- tion of Queen Charlotte High.
Mr. Parker felt that three major factors were to be dealt :with if any such recommendation were to become a reality. The first mentioned was that of a higher status of the teacher in the community. He believed that much of the prestige which in former years had accompanied the teaching profession was now lacking.

ing that higher salaries was the all important thing, stated‘ that before much improvement could be realized, a greater recognit- ion of a ‘teacher's worth had to be given.
LARGER ‘UNITS
» The third point emphasized by Mr. Parker was that of Targer units so that better administra- tion and improved accommoda- tion could be made avai1able.'He could see little incentive for a teacher to spend his or her life teaching in some of the rural communities of the'Is1and where even the barest of modern con- veniences are often lacking.

come from the urban citizens but it would be to their advantage to see that better conditions exist in the rural areas of the Province.
To bear out this point .he re- minded his listeners that the turn- over in city schools is about-20 and the natural source of replace- ment is from the country. There- fore if a sufficient number of good quality teachers are not avail- able in the country, what‘ then is the city to do? GRADE 8 LEVEL
Mr. Parker reported that 45 per cent of the children in P. E. I., do not reach grade eight and if Charlottetown and Summerside were not counted the percentage would likely be nearer 65 per cent. »

Mr. Gallant also stated that if the seals would reappear there. was 70 to 100 ‘fishermen ready to go after them. The seals were discovered Wednes- day and Thursday by air ‘pat-«
s. The north wind suddenly -veered to west Friday after- noon, and. blew ice floes carry- ing the largest seal herd ever seen on the North Shore of Prince Edward Island out into the Gulf of St. Lawrence beyond reach of small boats.

sources in St. John’s, Nfl»d., said the price included the skin and accompanying blgubber. An adult sealskin weighs about a quintal but ‘it take the skins from two baby seals to make up the 112 pounds. The higher price is for the baby skins. _

An "Old" Book For "New" Canadians
This week eight European men and women were granted Canadian citizenship in an impressive ceremony at the Court House in Char- lottetown.
Some of these “new" Cana- dians have come from coun- tries where there is little or no freedom of thought or re- Iigion as we know it. As they swore their allegiance to -Can- ada and the Queen, on Bibles which had been presented to them -a few moments before by the Bible Society, we re- called the words spoken by the Archbishop of Canterbury to Queen Elizabeth on her coronation five years ago in Westminster Abbey: “Our gracious Queen . . . we pre- sent you with this book, the most valuable thing that this world affords. Here is wis- dom; this is the Royal law; these are the lively oracles of God.” Do we as Christians recognize the great value of the Book? Do we value it sufficiently to read it daily? Do we do our share in seeing that it is made available to all men and women regard- less of color, race or creed?
The Bible Society is our agent in the distribution of the Word and as such needs our interest and support.
