Canada has a unique school in that it travels about in the spars- cst settled districts. This school. an old C.P.R. passenger car, has been converted into a schoolroom and teacher's home. It brings edu- cation to the children of railway section men and others who are living outside of organized school districts. The car stops at a given place for a few days, when it re- ceivea pupils from the surrounding districts, before leaving for the next place. and the teacher gives the children lessons to work out at home before he returns. En- joyment: tea.cher's bedroom. book- cases, blackboard, dining room and kitchen. and of course. maps.
