The 54-year-old night watchman at an Ottawa hotel has written folk songs and poems as a hobbyl since he was a boy. but it didn't interfere with his job until the last few months. Now one of his songs, "Isle of Campobello". has been recorded by Canadian ballad singer Earl Hey- wood and requests for permission to use the song have come in from as far away as Australia. Mr. Charters, a native of Mid- way. N. 13.. near Moncton. first at- tracted attentlcn with his song "When it's Summer at Green Gables”. which he wrote in 1lMl. the year; he came to ottawn. In his 30 years as a hotel work- er. he has been employed at ho- ltels in Edmonton. Vancouver. Jas- per. Alta.. and Charlottetown as well as here and it was from ills years at Chariot town that he drew the lnsteria for "Greer. Gebles". 'Anne" Author Aitracted It attracted the attention of the late Mrs. LM. Montgomery. auth- or of the well-known novel set in the Charlottetown area. "Aime of Green Gables". Her publishers were the first to print Mr. Cliar- ters' song. It has since been re- corded by Don Messer and his Islanders. Mr. Cltartels, a soft-spoken bachelor who walks with the aid of a cane as a result of a hip fracture suffered in his youth. also has written several travel pamph- lcta and 13 other songs. The music for one of them. "Jasper Lullaby". along with "Campobello" he set to music with writer 5. B. (Whitey) I-Ialns. The Australian Broadcasting Cor- poration has since requested per- mission to use both songs on one of its lntematlonal programs.

Mr. KA. Parker. Superintendent of City Schools. told the Char- lottetown Rotary Club in speaking at the Club's weekly luncheon yesterday. "That this stop was no hurried procedure is obvious from the record." Mr. Parker said. "The problem of increased accommoda- tion has been before the Board for years. Indeed if action had been taken fifteen or twenty years ago when the need was almost asgreat the Job oould have been done for much less than the present heavy cost. "Arising out of the Boards long study of the needs of its schools, culminating in the professional survey conducted by Prof. John Matthews in 1952 and published early in 1953, a brief was aubmlir ted to the City Council in March 1953. The following pertinent fac- tors were mentioned: "our problems are all created by deficiencies i.n four major areas. "1. The present buildings are grossly overcrowded. "2. The preunt buildings are structurally inadequate for a mod- ern school program. and the equipment is in large part ined- equate and outworn. "3. The present curriculum istoo narrow and restricted to serve ad- equately the needs of the whole school population or the comm-un- ity as a whole. "4. The schools have not re- ceived an adequate share of the tax-dollar to enable them to be maintained at the desirable level of cmcieilcy. "As a means to relieve the over- crowding the adding of extra classrooms to the present bulld- ings was carefully considered. Such a procedure would inevitably tend to perpetuate the inadequacy of the present buildings and the re- stricted curriculum. The only Iai- ternatlve was to provide high school faculties for Grades VII to X. The need for such is surely apparent and Justified. "An erroneous impression seems to be held by smile that the new school is to provide instruction ' from Grade VII to Grade XII. such is not the case. although ii. was one of the major recommen- dations of the Survey Report. Graduates from Grade X. who have met their academic require- mcnts will continue their matric- ulation studies at Prince of Wales College. as they have done in the past. The Board recognized that so long as these excellent services were available to city students that there could be no justifica- tion in duplicating them in the city system. There is the possibil- ity that as the program evolves. ft year's work beyond Grade xcan be offered to these boys rind girls not enrolled in the academic course. That is for the future to determine. ' "Of one thing the public can be assured, the expanded curriculum will not mean any less emphasis on the drills and disciplines which a sound academic program re- qllll'CS. The prestige of any school must be determined by its schol- astic standards. The prlncipal and his siafI will be committed to the task of nialiitaitling the highest possible academic levels. The teachers of our Charlottetown city schools have rendered yaoinanser- Vic! 1-" the Past. Their efforts will be even more successful in the future under these improved con- ditiolls."

The cost of equipping new schools is a very considerable item in the budget.

In the course of his address up Parker listed the following 331.. levemenu which he said could be credited to the modern school provided it is adequately staffer; and equipped: 1.

Educational re. search has provided the trained teacher with incomparably berm methods with which to guide the laamer in the acquisition of these basic tools-tools which largely de. termine his future and role in society. 2. The inclusion of the so-called frills and fade in the regular cur- riculum of such subjects as niuszc, art and drama have provided the broad base for the growth and de- velopment of s distinctively can. adian culture. 3- Younc people leaving 0... schools today are better able to earn a living by having had L11. 0DP0l'l-Uni?-Y in explore their liuli. vidual talents and interact; through the industrial arts and home economic. program 4.
