IN IDUCATION

The educational uetem of P. l. Island today, while improved more orleesineirmiectilluslng the seine machinery to pour the eerne type of knowledge into e greet mess of escorted young minds. The minds of some are to be used in the professions of Lew, medicine; religion, etc. The minds of others are to be used in mechanical end related trades. but the vast major- ity ere the minds of those who will grow up to be farmers in e province that depends for its livelihood for the most part on the farm and the farmer.

Under such circurnsten one would expect the type of educa- tion supplied by the people to their children would be such that it would suit farmers more than any other class of citizens. However that is not the case. During the lest few years an attempt has been made by the Department of Edwation to put more stress on the subject of Agriculture together with Nature and related Science. but the system of Education has not been changed in any way which will make it possible to give the subject the prominence .to which it is entitled in a predom- inantly agricultural province.

At present, as in the past, facili- ties for educating our young peo- ple are best suited to the needs of the above average pupil whose par- ents are able financially to send him or her to complete his educa- tion beyond our province. Tne re- sult is that only a small percent- age'cf our people get the educa- tion needed to get the most out of life under modern conditions. As the system caters only to the above average pupils, and even these are allowed a very limited

We point with pride to many prominent Prince Edward island- ers who have made a name for themselves beyond our shores. I can imagine now comments which I have heard to the effect that they are products of our rural schools. "Why should we change the system which pmduced such men as these?" say our reactionary flier-ids.

Yes our system has produced some great men of whom we are all proud to say that they were educated in our own little old dusty school house on the hill. No doubt .a great many of these same old dusty school houses will turn out more men and women who will up- hold the greatness of P. E. I. but what about the great majority of our pupils who are not above ever- age, or who have not the driving ambition to carry on to a full edu- cation regardless of the difficulty involved?

There are many ways in which the system can be improved. How- ever the simplest and most effec- tive answer to the educational question for us is the Regional High School. We must make it a point to study the question for our- selves and demand a remedy. ‘

It was lust an accident that I read those words and noticed the figures."

Boy, what e lier that makes you. All you had to do was to turn the eyes the other way. And if you do cheat, you are also e thief. For cheating means you are stealing the answer from your neighbor and then passing it on to your teach-

ll. If. Shipbuilding Firms Are Alarmed At Future Prospects

By HBLII DIAMILLB

LONDON, June w-(Reutersl- British shipbuilding firms, alarmed at future prospects for the indus- try, are refusing to tender for new orders.

The shipbuilding unions also are worriedl-by the possibility of pock-

ets of unemployment developing

which will be supplied b applicants. -

throughout the shipyards. At the root of the trouble is steel.

This year,’ the ‘government cut sillpplies to the industry by 20 per cent and so far has not indicated what supplies shipbuilding can ex- pect next year-or the next. Ship- bullders protest that they can not plan ahead and, the uncertainty is damping their traditional enter- prise.

The flil-pcr-cent steel cut is not so drastic as it. sounds. however, for steel production last year ren ahead of its target so much that shipbuilding got more than its pre- scribed quote. This year's cut was made on the steel actually sun- plied last year, so that shipping yards sre still getting a fraction more than the theoretical allocat- ion Iast year.

nevertheless, shiplmiidera expect that the steel allotted will be suf- ficient for rather less than 1.000,- 000 tons of shipping. The govern- ment target for the industry is i,- 350000 tons.

Nor is it steel alone which is
