Campbell, who attended the Canadian Trustees' Associa- tion convention in Winnipeg, ex- plained some of the advanced ideas put forward there. Health was given special consideration. He said everybody should read the report of the convention. He envisioned a great future for Ag- riculture through the application of science in the use of farm pro- ducts for manufacturing and com- mercial purposes. One thing he mentioned was plastics f r o m straw, and another, rubber from alcobol, procluced from wheat. It was estimated that this rubber can be made at one-tenth the cost of rubber from the sources avail- able before the war, and which are now mostly in enemy hands. In regard to the state scholarships which Hon. Duncan McArthur has announced. will be inaugurat- eci this fali and which will be available to selected students throughout the province, Mr. Campbell suggested that perhaps the County Councils might like to supplement these scholarsbips in their respective counties. Inspectors T. R. McEwen and iW. H. Carlton both made belpful contributions during the discus- sion periods and it was brougbt out that some schools are saving the people of their areas a good deal of money by buying ail sup- plies for the pupils at wholesale prices. Shaw's School Rhythm Band provided further entertainment and presented two numbers witb Joyce Cox directing and Elizabeth Bragg at the piano. Tbey won en- thusiastic applause. The final address was given by Principal Wm. Lycett of Maple Grove, who spoke witb refresh- ing aplomb of his experiences as a school boy and a teacher and ex- plained his self-developed system of teaching whicb differs some- what from orthodox ideas.
