E. Reaman of Waterloo College formerly of O.A.C., Guelph, and Superintendent of the Boys' Training School here, that he Is planning to try out an ex- periment in teaching univer- sity degree work through the medium of television. There are to be six lectures this spring on Rural Economics and Socio- logy, Geography, and Hlstory, and if the results seem favour- able, work wiil begin in the FaIll We assume the telecasts will be from the Waterloo or Kitchener station, in which case they would flot be received in this area. This idea seems so worth- wçhile, we wonder if the CBC bas been approached? Dr. Rea- man is, of course, primarily in- terested in how persans in the Waterloo area react ta such lec- tures, because that is where Wateloo College operates. That is fine. But we wauld also like ta see a similar experiment Air. Rail or Steamship I TO EEYHR I JUR Y &LOV EL L 15 ing St. W. MA 3-5778 Bowmanvllle carried out over CBLT which reaches a much wlder audi- ence. It seems reasonable to, think that if the would-be student were serious in his desire ta learn, TV lectures, by men or women campetent in their fields, could be of great assist- ance. If the lectures were spe- cifically tied in with extra-mu- ral courses gîven by a univer- sity, they could be of great h3lp and stimulation to the student who ordinarily must toil away alone witbout benefit of lectures or discussion§. He would stili be without another persan ta discuss a subject with (until some form of twa-way comn- munication can be economical- ly devîsed) but the lecturer is likely ta answer some of the student's questions during the course of bis talk. Those flot studying for a de- gree, but interested in .learning and stimulating their minds, could also benefit richly from such a series. We hope that the Waterloo experîment resuits in regular TV lectures next Fail, and we hope this stone dropped in the pool will spread wide circles of influence. URGE FOR HIGHER EDUCATION Dr. Reaman also says that throah his association wvth business and industry, he feels there is a tremendous urge on REVLON z z: me Z0 z: G o four m makesth auusdfene Revlon d makes the fabulous colours LIPSTICK NAIL POLISH SATIN SET CLEAN and CLEAR SILICARE NOW FEATURED AT- Jury and Lo've!! MA 3-5778 Bowmanville homemakers - DO UT VOURSELF - it's fun! the part o! aduitz today for higher education. With exten- sion courses in mind, Dr. Rea- mnan is endeavouring ta find what the necd is in bis area. Is this urge gencral, is it a trend in Canada? We hope it is, yet there are indications whlch seem ta prove that neyer bas the average persan been more content ta have a lazy mind. There seems little doubt that acceptance of the large percen- tage o! telev.ision fare offered, being o! a standard which the1 vicwer wauld rejeet if he hadj paid admission ta it as a mnovie, has contributed ta, this state. Reading requires concentration and stiniulates thought. In general, triaugh there are ex- ceptions of course, looking at television is a passive occupa- tion, sometimes inducing such torpor that the viewer falîs as- leep. But the tide will turn-is turning now accarding to circu- lation figures of liibraries in large cities. Television will find its place, or be put in _'ts place, in our lives. It .certainly bas a contribution ta make, as radio had arnd has, bath in the field of entertainimcnt and in the realm of current events. But il needs ta be more selective. Television may prove valuable in aduît education, and vie hope the desire for knowledge is strong and ever grawing. It should be. Our minds are what distinguish us as humans. Why do we let tbem die for lack af stimulation? EVER EAT A CONUNDRUMI? In the files cf The Canadian Statesman of 1908 we caine across the terni Conundrum Banquet, and wondered wbat it wvas. No ane answered the query in the Dini and Distant Past colurnn, but now we have on boan the menu of one of these affairs, held in Trinity Church, Bowmanville. Among many other interesting remernbranecs and souvenirs 6f days gane bY, it was preserved by the laIe David Morrison and is now tne prapèrty o! bis son, Mr. D. R. Morrison. Admission ta Ibis particular conundrum social and musical entertainment was 10c, plus what you chose from the canun- drum menu. A few cf the items were: Staff cf Life, lc; Tree Cake, 5c; Home for the Skip- per, 2c; Boston's Overthrom, 5e; jPride of Boston, 2c; An Unruly tMember, 5c; Preserved in the Ark, 3c; Printer's Horror, 5c; Tramp Cake, 5c; What Saine People Don't Know, 5c. We presume anc lried ta guess wbat such items were and made up one's supper accordingly. ljnless thie supper guests were quite expert at answering the conundrums on such a menu, lbey might gel some surprises and bave quite an amazing meal. We can imagine it created a lot a! fun. Maybe the idea could be used in some forni today. Note the modest pi'ices .of the food items, -tbough. These would be tripled today. Havej you guessed any of the itemsý mentioned? We guessed a few,j but others bave us comipletcly aI a loss. If any readers remem- ber Ihese affairs, how about dropping us a line, care of The Statesman? Another souvenir in Mr. Mor- rison's possession is a programi of the Feast o! Mondamin - "Camne Oh! Come ta the Feast of Mondamin, Hot Corn cakes and a little declaimin' " it urges. It was sponsored by the members of the E.L. of C.E. of the Methodist Church, Bow- manville on Thanksgiving Evening. Tbe E.L. o! C.E., we are tld, was the Epworth League of Christian Endeavour. The bill o! fare fealured corn mnush, corned bec!, 'corn jabnny cake with maple syrup, corni covered cake, corn starch cake, corn popped, and co!!ee hot. A progràm follawed in wbicb Miss Mabel Tait, Miss McWain, Mr. W. C. King, Mr. F. Trebil- cock, were same o! the partici- pants. Rev. C. Parker was the minizter.
