THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 19, 1931 FAGE THREE Bowmanville Representatives Daily Times Phone No. 53 TEACHER TRAINING SUBJECT OF TALK ---- | H. G. Lockhart Gave Ad-| dress at Staff Luncheon | Of B.T.S.. | H. G. Lockhart, M. A. of the teaching staff of the Hamilton Nor mal School was the speaker at the Staff Luncheon at the Boys' Train ing School, Thursday. Mr. Lock hart gave an interesting address on "Teacher training" stressing new ideas which are dally taking the place of the old fashioned ideas The new ideas in teacher training. he said, was a two year Normal gchool course instead of one and also the establishment of belipual training schools which would fit a prospective teacher for teaching in both French and Engligh rchools, Ho thought that the High gchool | teaching profession In particular was being neglected at the present time. Not enough university rrad- uates were going into that side of teaching, To make a good high school teacher the speaker stated, one must have the material to train and the calibre of the material must be goad. The trouble with the teacher situation {is that High School teachers are underpaid ana therefore do not attract the best graduates. The first year as a high school teacher he considered over- paid but following that he found that once the teacher had reached his or her maximum salary they were underpaid. The big pay in the first vear or so is what attracts any kind of parson to enter the profos. fession while those who look ahead gee a limited salary without any future, DEATH OF MRS. D.

LENIN Christie's Sultana Biscuits are so temptingly nice. The plump, uncrushed Sultanas add a fresh fruit flavor to their wholesome goodness that is irresistible to young and old. the Kiddies love short | - of the fiction class and thus the appeal will carry with it urgent en- quiries for this kind of reading. There are many in Bowmanville who have one or two and perhaps more books in fair condition lying around their homes and these would be doing a worthwhile ser vice it they would hand these over to the Library thus saving consid- erable expense. The library has a membership of 6562 which repres- ents a large percentage of the citi- zens. of the town. If every one of these members would subscribe one book to the library it. would have more new books than it is usual to purchase in one year. The giv- Ing of these books however, is by no means confined to members of the library but everyone can help with this worthy work.

The resolution passed by the city council -on Dee, 1, 1930, was as follows: Moved by Boddy, Macdonald: "Whereas the development of the St. Lawrence Waterways to a depth and with facilities sufficient for ocean going vessels would be of enormous benefit to the whole of the Dominion of Canada; "And whereas the power that would be available for such de. velopment would promote the in dustrial and agricultural extension of Canada in an unprecedented manner; "Now therefore he it resolved that the city council of the city of Oshawa places itself on record as being unanimously in favour of the construction of the St. Lawr- ence Waterways from the Great Lakes to the sea, and strongly recommends and urges that the Dominion Government complete the necessary arrangements so that the work may be undertaken with the least possible delay."

"I did not touch him until he started to lay hands on me" "I only seized the table leaf in self defence," ne continued, "The constable was threateniug me with a chair." After his son had disarmed them both witness said that he had push- ed the bailiff against the wall and had seized his throat just to show him that he was the better man if it came to a real scrap, Magistrate Creighton doubted whether. under the circumstances Stevens had any right to enter Far- row's home.
