The total value to the fishermen of Deer Island, including freighting ntoncy, exported to Maine pcarl essence plants in i943 amounted to approximately $70,000 American funds or $77,000 in Canadian tnoney. The method of gathering the lterring scales con- sists of the use of small boats capable of hold- ing from two to three hozsltcatls of ltcrring, fit- ted with slatted floors. When the fish are dip- ped into these boats from the seines at the weirs and are more or lcss stispentlerl in water the scales are loosened from the bodies of the fish as the men work among them and they fall iuto the bottom of the boats beneath the floors. After the fish are scooped aboard the large sardine boats which transport the herring t0 the canncries. the scales are dipped out from “w-ells" in the smaller craft into wire-screened containers and after the ivater has drained off of them they are placed in baskets furnished hy the scale buyers and thcn transported by the b93538 l0 i!

This can only mean that. we are farther back to- day than were the teachers of 189i. This is a pretty sweeping state- ment. and should not be expressed by anyone who is not. qualified to make such a comparison. I believe Colonel K. S, Rogers to be i1 friend of education. and of the teachers of Prince Edward Island. But be- fore he made this ,.i'0i’i0llhC€ffiEl’lb to such a wide circle of radio list- eners. I hope he took the trouble to possess himself with an adequate knowledge of teaching conditions in Prince Edward Island fifty years ago, and also to be thoroughly fa- miliar ivith teaching methods to- day. I am not qualified to make a comparison between the two sys- tems. I have beard many stories of tho old blrch-wiciclers of less than half a century ago, (my grandfather W515 one). and I must. coitfosg that their methods did not. appeal to me. but I am not making “Onlooker's“ mistake of condemn- tnf: them on the comparatively few stories I have heard. It‘ Col. Rog- ers and “0n1ocker" be correct. then certainly there has been much ado about nothing in educational cir- cles in this fair Island of ours. The Committee for Educational Improvement, tltat; was formed in Charlottetown lcccntly was a long way front being the first. of such organizations formed for the bet- terment: of education during the last fifteen years. Our Prince Eld- wurd Island Teachers‘ Federation has been much more active during the last ten wears than before that time. Has it been Jousting with Windmills all this time? It has brought about changes which seem- ei" to be for the better. and tins urged others such as larger units of administration which most. mod- ern educattonlsts approve. but which "Onlooker" condemns. Per- haps these modern educational nu- thoritles are all 1n error, but. if so, education is the only realm where progress has not been made. The funpet" has traded the sickle of fifty years ago for the binder of today. the physician has given up blood-letting and 1s resorting to blood transfusions. but the new ideas brought forth by educational research is termed “new-tangled itonsctise" by many of our pzople, and now a Moses has RPiSC-Tl to lead u; back to the glories of fifty years afzo.
