Rotaricin Speakers Tell Of §yJobs AI Lunche‘o‘n“MeeIing-
Three Rotarians brought fel- low-members of the Charlotte- town Rotary Club up to date on ;,-their /respective jobs as they , spoke, on their “Classification” ‘at the weekly luncheon meeting j held at the Charlottetown Hotel '_’yesterday. Arnold Callbeck and
Jim Burden were jointly in- f charge of the meeting. ‘ Percy Simmonds of Central
Creameries Ltd., told the story of _ ice cream stressing the source of ' supply--the Dairy Cow-- “a mobile .animated machine housed in un- -processed leather. One end is _equipped with a mover, grinder, ;and other standard equipment, iincluding bumpers, headlights j and a foghorn.
,_ At the other end is a milk dis- - penser and insect repeller.” f’ Mr. Simmonds traced frosty , cool ice drinks from the time of .Nero when snow was brought fi0WIl daily from the mountain, up ;o the modern plant. Marco Polo sis credited with introducing Ice 2 Cream making into England. ' g . The first advertisement regard-
ing ice cream appeared in the -A New York Gazette in 1777. “Avail- _ able almost any day” at the shop . of Phillip Lenzie. ‘

Housekeeping, catering, lost and found department and the many activities interwoven in the successful operation of a modern hotel were ‘described in an in- teresting and instructive way by Mr. Pellerin. Humor was inter- jected as the speaker described incidents of that nature which fell under his. observation during the years he has been identified with the work under Canadian Na- tional management.
Stan Mclnnis speaking on Adult Education regretted that the fac- ilities available for adult educa- tion throughout the province were not made use of. "In Saskatche- wan more adults are taking ad- vantage of the school facilities provided for night classes and study than ;the, attendance of children in routing day sessions." Mr. Mclnnis said.
"The process of cohtinous learn- ing by all of us at all times, best describes Adult Education". In Russia, adult schools for adults point out what it means to be a Communist, leaving Democratic countries to ask themselves the question What do we want?” This is an age of technical and scien- tific education. Ignorant masses have no place on the scene of to- day. -
Speaking particularly of local conditions, Mr. Mclnnis said that not too many years ago, the local country store and a supply of reading matter was the sole source of entertainment especial- ly in winter. “Now it is not un- usual to travel 50 miles to a hockey match”.
“We must get down to a stiidy of ourselves with the specific ‘idea of learning a trade or im- proving Academic education “No program of study will be success- ful unless the people want them and will use them”. Mr. Mc- Innis said as he specified many opportunities open ‘for improve- ment and the advance of know- ledge.
The educational value of group discussion of good gooks, the dramatic societies, the Musical Festival and newspaper reading, was stressed.
"Bringing together an organiza- tion with a view to arranging community programmes once a month should beneficial,” Mr. Mclnnis said. Regret was expres- sed at the resignation of W. A. Stewart from membership in the I club.
A new member, Esben Arnfast, was introduced by his sponsor Rouel LePage.
Rotarian Ben Rogers who »as honorary treasurer of the Red Seal drive rendered worthy com- munity service was presented with a memento by Sr. Capt. John Carter of the Salvation Army and thanked for his cooperation by Norman W. Lowther, Advisory

EDUCATIONAL HORIZONS
(Reprinted fr 0 m an article which appeared in Vol. 15, No. 3 of the Canadian Home and School by Prof. N. V. Scanfe, fiormer Dean of Education, University of Manitoba and now Dean of Edu- cation, University of British Col- umbia.)
I am sure you have already heard many criticisms of the grade system. Let us very briefly review and support these criti- cisms and then offer suggestions for an alternative scheme.
It is fairly easy to prove that the grade system can lead to the growth of mediocrity and conform- ity. It is also easy to prove that it reduces standards of education and ethics, but its worst charac- teiri-sti-c is that it prevents the ful- lest development of each individ- ual child. .
A grade is an ‘average attain- ment, yet all want to exceed this standard. Thus the Pass mark 1“ examinations tends to be reduced to meet this need. Below aver- age students can be forced to me- morize unoomprehended f a c t s, and if the exaimiiiation is of a few restricted chapters in a text- book and gives multiple choice selections, it is likely that the pu-
pil may “get by,” even if he does not deserve to do so. Parents, teachers, children and examiners aill connive at these unethicall pro- cedures.
BAD FOR BOTH
Those who are unable to learn easily are constantly failing and persistently nagged. Thus they learn only two things well. They learn to hate school and to achieve success in antisocial acts. '1‘-hiese aicts help to prevent others from learning, too.
Those Wlho succeed easily are neglected. They are not challeng- ed. The devil finds rniscihief for these idle hands, or 81456 they be- come lazy. They do not have equal opportunity at all. 501‘ the tea‘ cher devotes a di-sproportionate amount of -time to t-heslow learn- ens. Equality of opportunity mean giving every child an equal share of teaclhrers’ time for twelve years. lit does not mean all have a right to twelfth grade educa- tion with only twelve years of study.
MECHANICAL CONCERT
The grade system encourages people to think of schooling as a series of annual doses of know- ledge, administered to children who are indiscriminately divided up into age groups. This mech- anical concept of education im- plies that children are empty ves- sels to be filled by steps of grades. Schools become rather like department stores on differ- ent floors or levels, where custo- mers receive nicely parcelled and equalized snippets of knowledge to carry to the next floor. Like the department store, it is felt that the acquisition of such know- ledge should involve minimum charge in school support tax, and then everyone is entitled to re- ceive education on demand. MUST THI-NK
Unfortunately this idea is false, for education depends on the ef- forts of the child to think for him- self. It is not handed out in par- cels or doses by a°teacher. More- over, although taxes may guar- antee every child twelve years of schooling, they do not guarantee a twelfth grade standard of educa- tion. No money can buy stand- ards of educations". They depend on the ca-pacify of the child. Mon- ey can buy only time in school and quality of teaching. It cannot buy quality of mind. '
The alternative way of looking at education is to think of the twelve years of school. as a con- tinuous period of mental growth. which is biological’, not mechan- ical. Minds grow, not by accum- ulation of knowledge, but by in- crease in complexity and quality, by continuous devieloipiment of strength of c‘ha.ra.cter and intellec- tual ability. Minds grow in wis- dom, not in size.
LEARN FASTER
It is clear that some children grow faster than others. Thus the ailtern-aitive way of dividing chil- dren in a school is into longitudin- al streams of similarly able or equally fast learning groups. We call this “ability grouping" or streaming. Early in school life a particular age groupwho are fast learners are placed in a separate group or class or even school, and are allowed to progress as fast as they c-an through the work nor- mally set for twelve years of
schooling. They will probably complete it‘

all in ten years or less. Thosel

The Grade System Works Against Effective Teaching
as they can, will complete the twelve years work in approxima- tely twelve years. The slow lear- .':5I‘*., are again separated into groups of similar capacity. They will probably need fourteen or fif- teen years, but they will do the work ‘thoroughly; they will un- derstand it and probably like it. They may, however, not wish to persist beyond twelve years of schooling, or a present ninth grade level of study. All such grouping is very flexible, never rigid.
NEED CHALLENGE
Every child is entitled to meet challenges in school which are interesting and exacting and at which he can succeed with reas- onable effort. Nevertheless, pro- gress should be continuous and at as fast a pace as each child can make, not halted annually while others catch up.
A slow learning child twelve years old, who has just under- stood all the complexities and concepts normally associated with an average ten-year old child, has probably done well. If he has been in the slow learning stream since he started school, he has ‘probably competed suc- cessfully with others of like alb- ility without recourse to any un- ethical practices.
He has met with considerable success in mastering the prob- lems presented by the teacher. He has probably never failed to do his best. Thus he has not "failed” in any proper sense of that term, even though he is un- able to understand what an aver- age child of twelve can under- stand.
BETTER TEACHING
Equal ability groups are much easier to teach. Because of that, teaching efficiency is improved. It has been shown by experiment that below average children do better mentally and morally when taught separately than when with a heterogeneous group. It has also been proved scientifically that average children do better when taught in classes from which the very dull and very cle- ver have been removed. Very few people ever doubt that gifted children progress much more sa- tisfactorily when taught in separ- ate groups or classes. That is the only way they get equality of teacher time.
NOT SKIPPING '
Ability grouping is not the same as grade skipping, acceleration or enrichment; It does not admit any of these devices. It is sim- ply a means of allowing similarly able children to progress contin- uously through school as fast as they can without skipping any- thing or being ovenpressed. It may mean that the subject mat- ter will be approached from a different angle and the methods of teaching vary from stream to stream, but there will be even- ually little difference in what is learned until senior high school. is reached.
Instead of classes called grad- es, there will be classes labelled by the number of years of school- ing. For example, an “A” stream might be tackling material suit- able for an average fourteen and a half year old, whereas the “C” stream might be studying mater- ial suitable for- an average ele- ven and a half year old only. The stream system obviates the pro- blem of promotion. OBJECTIONS
Objections to ability grouping into continuous streams c om e from two sources. The first is a few very vocal parents with chil- dren of less than average abil- ity, who seem unable to accept and love their children for what they are.
Instead of allowing them to be happy and taste the joys of su-c- cess in competition with those of equal ability, they prefer to goad these unfortunates into the con- tinuously frustrating situation of unfavorable competition with those who are mentally superior. They prefer to force their child- ren into a situation leading to moral degradation rather than leave them amongst their peers where a teacher can more easily raise ethical sra-ndards.
Because of their own pride they prefer to cheat society into be- lieviing their childrtn capable of high executive posts, where they would undoubtedly be unhappy or arrogantly stupid. They put too much emphasis on future mater- ial affluence and too little on their children's happiness. UNDEMOCRATIC?
The other source of opposition is those who think that democ-

The one-day anniversary cele- brations commorate the opening in 1883 of the first lectures in common law at a Canadian law school. At the time at the inau- gural convocation Dean Richard Weldon stated that, “In drawing HID our curriculum we have not forgotten the duty which every

We may fairly hope that some of our students will, in their riper years, be called upon to discharge public duties, we aim to help these to act with fidelity and wisdom”.
A Special university Convoca-
impressive program has been arranged by the Dalhousie University Law School to cele- brate its 75th Anniversary of its founding on October 31, 1958. Dean of the Law School, Dr. H.E.

Ition is also expected to be held ‘in connection with the anniver- sary celebrations along with a buffet luncheon, a banquet, and a variety of Law School Alumni meeting-s. The memorable occas- ion will be marked by publica- tion of a history of the Dalhousie Law School.
Low intelligence they feel must be “fixed” with remedial educa- tion and high in-tellects must be kept back so that all are made to feel equal. They think that if all are taught heterogeneously to- gether then some of the intelli- gence of-gthe bright ones will rub off on to the dull children. They are terrified lest those in the “C” stream should have inferiority complexes, or t-hose in the “A” stream become intellectual snobs.
They seem to forget that it is
much more wounding to a sensi- tive child to be constantly over- shadowed by intellectual s-uper- iors than it is to be placed in a group with whom he can com- pete on equal terms and where his own needs, interests and ab- ilities are especially catered for. They also forget that snobbery is characteristic not of the really clever, but of those who merely think they are so. .

Going Home By Cheapest Way
MELBOURNE (AP)-Canadian Fred Little, his Belgian - born wife and their three children, an going home the cheapest possible way—by bicycle-—a,nd are having “a breather” ni Melbourne.
Little, 42, his wife, Francine, 37, and their three boys-Roland, 8, Freddy, 7, and Arthur, 2-have already travelled nearly 3,000 miles from their adopted home town at Katanning, near Perth.
They have covered the distance along highways and back roads. the children living in two light caravans pulled by the parents.
“We’ve been invited into homes and sell postcards or we could not carry on,” Little said Thurs- day.
While the parents pedal along, the children spend the days play- ing or learning lessons from school books.
The Littles, who set out at Christmas, pian to cycle to Syd- ney, save enough money _for the fare to San \Francisco, cycle to Oshawa. 0nt., Fred’s home tow , where his mother is seriously 1] with arthritis.
After wintering there they will cycle to Halifax and cross the Atlantic to see _Francine’s mother in Dour, Belgium.
“This is not a stunt." says Little, “it’s the only way we can see our sick mothers.’
New York State Supreme Court upheld Petrie’s right to the money and dismissed as fantas- tic a rival'claim by Walter Rob- inson, 70, who s-aid he had a “vi- sion” that it belonged to an es- tate he administers.
Carmine F. De Sapio; chief of New York city’s Tammany Hall Democratic political organization had been a passenger in Pe_trie's cab just before Petrie discovered the money but disclaimed owner- ship.
