Ve Za RV RARAAY The Ontario Secondary School Tes- chers' Federation opposes the intro- duction of Driver Education into the school program -- even though the course, as approved by the Depart- ments of Education and Transport, and safety agencies such as the Ont. Safety League, is extra-curricular and optional. I am happy that educators are con- cerned about increasing the standards of academic. teaching in our schools. But I would like them to contrast the opposition to Driver Education with acceptance of some of the other cour- ses that are taught in high school. My daughter Jennifer entered high sc ast September. During her al she has to take Typing as a curridulum subject. This is com- pulsory--there was no .option. (Ac- tually, I believe this is exceptional and that Typing is normally an op- tional subject). The fact remains that she has to spend hours a week at the keyboard of a typewriter, and if her fingers are not sufficiently nimble to pass the speed test at the end of the year, she believes it may affect her school career. As it happens, her marks on all academic subjects are high, and I am quite pleased that she is learning a useful skill like typing. But I would like to ask this question: What is the philosophy of educators that encourages Typing as a curricu- lar subject in high school, but will not permit the introduction of Driver | Education, 'even ds an extra-curricu- lar, optional course? -- . ~~ Jennifer 'may or may not use a typewriter in adult life, but it is prac- tically certain that she will drive a Who decides--and- why-- that it is so much more important for her to learn to type well than to learn to drive well? . Many parents believe that learning to drive safely is not only more im- portant than proficiency in typing, but it is much more important from the point of health(i.e..staying-alive);|- from the point of economy (avoiding expensive accidents) and from the point of usefulness: Further, Driver PRICES Effective Thurs., Fri., Sat., FEB. 23, 24, 25 ib rae Were al stocked up-with Yivenhy New Merehanuise 107, THE. 5 t i _ Great Carload Food Sale Ti KRAFT i " 1b.

Education in school is of value in de- veloping character--it stresses sdelf- control, consideration for others, cour- tesy, a realization of responsibility which cannot be claimed for typing courses by any stretch of the imagina- tion, . It has been said that "the ultimate aim of Education is to meet the needs of the people". If parents decide that their children need to be taught cor- rect driving skills, habits and atti- +| tudes in school to give them the best chance of survival in this motor age, by what yardstick do: educators re- fuse this, while accepting typewrit- ing as a curriculum subject?

Last year's telephone construction program of $208 million was the largest in the company's history, the report states, and 184,130 telephones were added to those in service. In Port Perry, evidence of the com- pany's improvement and expansion program was seen through the addi- tion -of some 95 telephones, bringing the total number in service here at year's end to 1645, said J. W. Lowry, Bell manager for this region. According to the report, net income totalled $63,511,907 for last - year, $3,228,329 higher than in 1959. Earn: ings per share amounted to-$2.62 or four cents higher than in the previ- ous year. Dividends for the year totalled $2.20 a share, and surplus was increased by $6,072,867 to $62,782,736 or $2.47 a share. Taxes totalled $64,731,000, or $6,- 649,000 more than in 1959. Wages and salaries in 1960 totalled $159,028,668. "Reflecting a slowing down in the -national--economic Progress, revenues | were only 7.6 per cent higher than in 1959," the report states. "Ex- penses increased by 5.5 per cent. This relationship points up the effective- ness of sustained cost control. "The two major revenue compon- service -- each increased by 7.4 per cent. Other revénues rose by 9.7 per cent." i At the year's end, the number of shareholders was 171,288... Of these, 166,627, or 97.3 per cent, reside in Canada and hold 92 per cent of the stock. This is by far the largest body of Canadian shareholders in any Canadian company. The American Telephone and Telegraph Company now holds only 3% per cent of the company's shares.

ST. JOHN'S AMBULANCE It is often said that to be a good spy, or a good detective one should appear as a meter-man or a postman. Such a statement is quite true and it is true because such people are so much a part of our daily life, their service is so taken for granted that we are hardly aware of them. Another such group whose efficient effective and unassuming - service is often overlooked, is that of St. John Ambulance. The next time you attend a public gathering, look around you. Somc- where, in the background, you will see the trained men and women of St. John Ambulance Brigade. You'll find them wherever a crowd is gathered, wherever accidents oceur and expert first aid help is needed. Who are these dedicated men and women who proudly serve under the symbol of the Maltese Cross, who give their time willingly and without a penny's pay- ment ? They are housewives and business- men, doctors and typists truck drivers and farmers, factory workers and students -- all working as volunteers for the good of the community in what is probably the world's oldest welfare organization, THE CHRISTIAN N18 1 DAYED MONITOR AN INTERNATIONAL per cent has been sed in Canada, Special Stamp On April 19th, 1961, the residents of Port Perry, Ont. and vicinity will be able to purchase a special com- memorative postage stamp honouring the late Rt.
