tupreme Importance of Individual Teopic of Impressive Address gowmanville Home & School Club At the November meeting of thc Bowmanville Home & School Club, held in Central School's new clabsroom, the members were fortunate i hearing Mr. William Jackson, B.A., B. Paed., Toronto, speaking on the theme of 'Citizenship." In introducing the speaker, Mrs. Keith Jackson said that Mr. Jackson is a graduate o! both Quéens University and the Uni- versity of Toronto. He bas recent- l3f qualified as an Inspector of Public Schools and he is the cdi- tor o! the Monthly Bulletin. 1Mr. Jackson's tapie was "The Supreme Importance of the In- dividual." He divided bis subject into two sub-topics: Responsibil- itý and Tolerance. He said changes had been made In the school curriculum, with the object of developing a greater sense of responsibility in child- ren. To develop this sense of re- sponsibility, the child is given freedom. Mr. Jackson suggested that often too much freedom was allowed an.d too great responsi- bilities placed upon children Responsibility can be given only In proportion fo the child's abili- ty to assume it. We do not allow a four year old child to pick his way through heavy traffic. Al tbrough his early years, he is taught traffic laws; he is taught to watch the lights, he is taught ta move quickly and steadily, un- til he reaches the point in this1 education at which he is able to 1 assume the responsihility of fcrossing a busy street. Respon! 1bility, like good manners, mu. sbe taught and as citizens it is oi sduty to teach it. Education is a continuous pri cess, Mr. Jackson stated. Il school gives a chlld the tools ar he spends the rest of his life pe fecting the use of those toolt.1 long as we live we must tryi 1acquire knowledge. Each of! is able to do this through a tole: ant consideration of the viev 1and opinions of other people.. we refuse to tolerate these opix ions we have missed the essen. of democracy. We cannot beliei in derlocracy if we do not bg lieve in tolerance. Although %% are proud o! our Anglo-Saxo heritage, we do not fail to sE that the immigrant to our ehorc is as great in the eyes o! Go( Nations characterized by tolei ance have advanced and it is a( cepted that nations are as thej people feel individually. Tolerance is the cornerstone c democracy; it is the hall-markc a man, concluded Mr. Jacksoi Mr. A. M. Thompson, Princip. of the Public Schools, expresse, his personal appreciation and tha of the teachers and parents pre sent to Mr. Jackson for the clea exposition of his opinions on subject so vital to those engaý-- in îraining children. Another highlight of this excel lent programme, prepared b: Mrs. Robt. Cale, was a Cub de monstration of intricate knots an( a difficuit balance test.

APublic Libraries èe Suf f or From ,es Lack of Publicity c- Canadian public libraries still ir flounder with "pioncer methods in an atomic age," the one-day of annual conference o! thc Ontario of Library Association's circulation n. section was told in London by al Miss Anne Hume, chie! librarian d o! Windeor. at Urging advcrtising and publicity e- campaigns, she said the average tr public library today is uscd only a by 12 to 25 per cent. o! the adult population. That indicates, from the circulation standpoint, that 1- "we are rank failures in meeting )y the adult rcading nccds," Also, - libraries should have lounges or id special rooms wbcre discussion - groups could nicet and flot be -harricd by "No Smoking" signs. S Miss Christine MacKerracher of the London Public Library was chairman o! the conference, which attracted about 50 delegates. Miss Hume, who was chie! speaker, said that libraries can learn much !rom the educational programs carried out by special- ists in the armed forces during the war. "Libraries," she said, "bave the books, magazines, pamphlets, pic- turc files, and many o! theni have films, slides, records, radias, al supplied by the taxpayer. Wbat most o! us baven't got are con- versation rooms or lounges where discussion groups can meet in pleasant surroundings with easy chairs and shaded lights, and no signs 'smoking not allowed'. Today, the radio, movies, news- papers and magazines are compet- ing with Uic public library for the leisure time o! adults, and wlth the power o! organized advertlslng, publicity and promotion behind them. Wbat feeble publiclty we do Is mostly within the library where it 1 is least nccdcd," she said. "<Our i public relations work outaide the library is o!tert on a nice lady- like basîs. We need a publicity campaign that will impress every man and woman that they are midsslng somnethlng If they dowt use the library." Howevcr, libraries cannot be expectcd to launch their own pub- licity drives because they are un- der sta!fed, due ta low salaries, and have small budgets. She re- !erred to recent "Know Your Library" wcek in Windsor. It was success!ul, but the librarlans went "montbs behind" in their regular work due to thec tue spent on thc publicity program. City school teachers ln Canada stay on one job for an average of ten years; rural school teachers move from one school to another or out of teaching altogether ev- ery two years or less.

Harle Sluperviser ef Music tu Bowmanville Schools As in every iubject in our sehool curriculum, it is wise to note at the outset that we are teaching children. Through miusic our purposes are te provide ac- tivities in whlch children learn to create music, to listen to music and to share the experience o! participating in activities giving opportunty for richer, fuller liv- ing. The activities in our class- rooms Imuat b. such as ta interest aIl members of the class o! vary- ing degrees o! musical talent, and only Incidentally concerned with the development o! skills o! the individual performer. The activities with which we are to achieve the above are: (1). Song interpretation, including the phrasing, diction, rhythm, clear truc tone and response to the poctry and music; (2). Voice training for Song an-d speech: (3). Ear training; (4). Sigbt Reading; (5). Co-relation with literature, social studies, physical training. etc.; (6). Music appreciation, in- cludlng recognition of dIfferences in style, mood, voice, instruments. etc.; elemcntary music form, si- lent listening to auiet, serene music, knowlcdge of great com- posers and some o! their best loved works, (7). Creative activi- tics in melody writing. action songs, rhythm band, participation in school orchestras, choirs, ope- retta productions.

Gilbert and' Sulivan Operas, sponsoring pro-r gramns o! worthwhile music, are evident through our towns and cities.
