Then, the war aeveats ta "operetion Yo-Yo.'1 In his estimation, the present con- flict in Korea is a "polîtical war" andi figbting men in Korea expeet the Reds ta produce ar ace-la-the-hole. Apparently 1,000 or 1,500 plane air attacks could be the ace-in-the-hole, as intirea ated by Allen Dumnmitt. Hi. Bigent Seare Asked ta name the "biggest scare" encountered during bis 14 montbs in Karea, PFC Dummnitt promptly replied, "the time the ammunition train blew up at Che- chon." Allen Dummitt was near the train whea sebeteurs, it is believed, blew up two cars of arnmunition. This newspaper cerried a stary on PIC A. W. Dummnitt Feb.8, 1951, which wes mailed ta him; in Korea. "I gat the Statesman," be said, "and it was just îike a, letter froni home."1 The Stetesmen joins witb "Souchie" Dummnitt's many otheri friends in Bowmanville in wisb- ing hlm a happy leave.

The Right Christmas Spirit Parents Are Asked to Study New Report Card Jssued This Nonth A new type o! report card is being used in Bowmanville Pub- lice Scbools for the fia-st time this rnontb. The report measures a pupil's l)Iogress against what he is capable of doing, instead o! camparing bis achievernents with those of bis classmates. The latter sysfem, ; which bhas been used for many years. is believed, by some teachers and- eduication- lsts ta have a barmful etteet on e child who rnay stand near the bottom of the class, but be work- ing ta the limat of his ability. Ia the new reports, the old system of percentage marks and grades bas been abqlisbed. For ea-h subject the pupil is mra-ked O for Outstanding, S for Satis- factoa-y, or U for Unsaaisfactory. This grading is arrivcd et by the teacher, who tries ta take into consideration the child's ability la the subjecf and- whether lie is woa-king up ta the limit o! that ability or not. The system is also used ta indicate the teacber's opinion of the pupi's progress in1 personality, attitudes ýregarding respect for property, and sense1 o! responsibility. The sx'stern, xhich is in uase1 ia the Toronto schools. is in the, experimiental stage and teacherst are somewhat dividcd la theirE opinion of its merits. Som-e Tor-r onto teachers feed that it is di-t- ficuit ta prove that a cbild is flotr woa-king up ta bis ability and are giving the pupil the benefit o! tbe doubt by gradiag hlm S, Others feel it is discouragiag ta a good student wba gets 80 ta grade hlm the same as one who gets 40 because the latter is woa-k- ing ta the limit o! bis ability. On tbe cther baad, other Tor- onto teachers aad principals feel the new system is e step in the rigbt direction. The feeling o! local teechers bas not been detea-- miaed. Individuel marks aa-e still aecorded, and parents are encour- aged by the local principal, Mr-. A. M. Thompson, ta arrange an interview with bimself or the child's teacher ta discuss any points whicb mey be ta-aubling them Lbout their cbild's pa-ogress la scbool. The principal reminds parents that report ca-ds are sent borne- wifh et least three pua-poses la mind: 1. To inform the pupil o! bis Progress. 2. To inform the parent o! the pupil's progress. 3. To encourage the pupîl's e!- foqrt. AIl gradings and comments by the teacher on the report card are an aftempt ta carry out these pua-poses, and the co-operation of the parents by giving the new reports caretul study is ua-ged. lite expectancy is continuing and, with it, the field for aduîf educe- lion is growing yeaa- by year. Af tbe same time, air travel, radio and television are bringing the cultures of far-away lands fa oua- doorsteps. The Massey Report on national development in the arts, letters, and sciences bas emphasized the vital part that the universifieg play through providing e centre for adoît education. The report points ouf fiat not only does the university sea-ve v ohlun t a r y groups, if is also tie fountain- bead ot a sta-eam o! communal activities.
