Memebr of the Ontarjlýo Weekly Newspaper Assec W eath4rman To Go A recent newspaper article points out that scientists are now earnestly studying the cause of weather with the view of somieday having control over this now uncontrol- able element of our universe. 1 There is no0 doubt that man Will, in time, place his control on the weather, This accomplishment we base on the fact that man has in many other cases conquered that which only a few years ago was uncontrolable or insur- mountable. The ability of man, we believe, has yet ta be really tested and the arrangement of our weather is only a matter of a few years, Although the scientist may, provide the key to, our weather he will flot have the say in how it is to be used. This latter privilege will no0 doubt bc handed to the politi- cian who at this stage of the game may need somethjng to hure the voter to'his or her side. The politician, within the next few years, having given the, people of the country (of course ýwith the tax- payer's money) f uli protection from fear and want along ,with education to make use of our idie time will need something to interest the voter. This is where control of the weather will fi the gap and corne forth as a political- plum. lie can offer the prairie farm ramn during thegrain growing season. the worker sunny and hot week-ends from March to October, the skier plenty of snow from November to, June etc.. etc. The appeal can bc to almost everyone.. but of course there will be hitches' and displeasure when sucli as the water skier tangles with the snow skier etc., 1The possîbilities are almost unlimited and should be good for at least three or four elections. Although this control1 may provide many hassels we can rest well assured that even the politicians couldn't mess Up things much worse than hias nature this summer. GOOD FOR COBOURG!f If John Dewey, the father of "progressive education" V werýe alive, he wouldn't have a chance to be elected to the Cobourg district school board. For there a refreshing no-nonsense policy of study and'. dicipline hias been adopted at the high sehools. It, doesni't go quite so far as the Scottisb school where Prince Charles and his fellow-students were required-to begin the day with a cold shower, but in the light of some pedagogic attiudes todiay its effect is juist as bracing. Cobourg officiais are cornvinced that the only way to bripg utif the miarks of their chargZes is to lay do)wn the lw 110 taking the car to school; no extra-curricuflar activities foýr failing students; 1n0 leaving- the sehool grounds for luinch; no trumped-up excuses for tardiness or absences; no0 early departures for Christmnas or Thste holidays. The positive commandments are just, as rigorous: everybody stays after regular classes for an activities period consisting of supervised study and.library work; everybody pulls up his socks, buekies down and works bard, It must be' decades since sucb plain talk has eman- ated from educational authorities in this province. Wq are se accustomed to the class-roomn as a kind of anarchy plus a schoolmarm that Cobourg's comnmandments for students have a Victorian ring. Yet it's about Urne somebody reminded us that a teacher is not sîimply a kindly.onlooker but a shaper; that a student doesn't just grow on his own but needs a frame of organization to give him security enough to grow on, For too long we have been told that you have to start with a student's "Inte1tests." But he doesn't really know what his interests are until he has been exiposed to the wisdom of the past, the doubts and insight of the pres- ent and the enthusiasm of bis teacher. The job of a schooL is to release the motivation of a youngster - to make him into someonewho wants deeply to learn and grow. And that is a problem of finding some area in which he bas a sense of mastering something worth- while, stage by stjge. In achieving this, he must learn both to compete witb others and to be lonely and work alone during hearthreak- ing and heroic hours. Let's say it out loud: Sehools must again stress the pursuit of excellence. That may be an old-fashioned term, but it is stili the only basis on wbich to develop intellectual and moral strength without wbich a democracy perishes.
