In an address delivered at the An- nal Convention of the National Educational "Association in Boston, Jast July, reference is made to & little girl who fell behind her lass in arith- metic when she reached the sixth ligment grade or senior 'third class in the ele- 4 mentary school She was a pupil of average intelligence and her failure in etic so aroused the curiosity of teachér that the case was made ject of an investigation. 'ott that her mistakes in hy metic practically always came in mul- tiplication, in the 7, 8 and 9 tables. Upon learning this the teacher imme- diately took steps to correct the weak- ness, but the child's school career was algo traced back to the time when those tables 'were learned by the rest of her class and according to chid was out of school register the The parents had during that time. obtgined- a perm on ance Officer allo her to- remain 0-1 at home for a few weeks. She was {promoted with the vest of the class and left with that weakness buried under the accumulation' of the new things studied.' The results of this absence from school bdcame apparent to pupil, teacher and parents a few years later. was to have a teacher who took the trouble to investigate, how some parents may keep | childven home from school for a day, a week, or a month without thinking of the tremendous loss to theft"own children and the rest of the 'glass.

The only way for a child to succeed at school is to get every lesson that is taught and master each day's work as it comes. There is an investnient of $70,000, 000 in the sites, buildings and furnd- ture of the elementary schools of On- tario. Add to this another $30,000,000 spent annually on the maintenance and upkeep. of these schools.

We may not hope for 100 per cent, attendance, although Japan can boast of 97% per cent, and yet if the average is 10 per cent. less than it might be, the province is losing 10 per cent. of the interest on the $70,000,000 capital investment and 10 per cent. of the annual $30,000,000 expenditure or oximately $6,000,- 000.a year. Most industrial concerns, in face of a situation like this, would immediately, engage an efficiency ex- pert. Therd are fifteen thousand em- ployees in the educational system of Ontario and an effort should be made by all trustees, ratepayers and par- ents to secure the highest possible average attendance that the most divi- dends in 'intelligence and character may be derived from the capital in- vested.

Manitoba wheat--No. 1 Northern, cities, The city of Toronto, for in- $1.28 stance, has $13,380,927 invested in the public elementary schools and spends annually: $6,260,612 on their mainten- ance. The - investment in separate schools in Toronto is $2,863,995 and the annual expenditure on the same $614,626. The cities of Ontario have made great progress in the last decade in providing schools. These free ele- mentary schools have been establish-) éd and are maintained by levying a school tax on the property of all the ratepayers. In the days of Dr. Ryer- son, the founder of our educational} system, when free schools were first provided, men said, "You may as wel take my oxen to plow my neighbor field as take my taxes to educate his children." people yet who think that way, never- theless the non-resident ratepayer and the 'childless ratepayer are both taxed| to provide free elementary education, sacks, § for all the children.
