Trie Bnteiprise, UolDoro*. Nov. 20th. 1958 ONTARIO ASSOCIATION FOR CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT MET NOVEMBER 6-8 The eighth aTmual Conference j of the Ontario Association for Curriculum Development met on November 6, 7, 8th at the King Edward Hotel, Toronto for the purpose of discussing standards in education in Ontario. Representatives from every "branch of elementary and second ary education were present including principals, inspectors, re presentatives of Boards of Educa tion, representatives of School Book Companies, Technical School Representatives, Teachers' Colleges, Directors of Curriculum Research, Dept. of Education Superintendents, Deans of Universities and many others from every branch, of education. This meeting of 485 delegates was arranged by F.W.T.A.O. Two delegates from this district felt honored in being chosen by the Toronto executive to represent the Teachers Federation from this .area--namely Mrs. Mary Macklam, Brighton and Mrs. Lorena Irvine, Colborne. On the first evening, Mr. T. Cahali, co-ordinator of Television in Washingtoi. County Schools gave an inspiring address explaining how TV lessons are carried on in Hagerstown, Maryland schools and how it was improving the status of teac hing in that area. On Nov. 7th and 8th delegates-met in various groups to discuss questions relative to our present curriculum and how our stand-ars in teaching can be improved Group topics discussed were on English, science, mathematics, social studies, writing, promotion, testing^ supervision, teach-'ng discipline, research, school and society, TV in education, tea ching of french, pVsical fitness and the trustee as a partner in •education. While delegates would like to have visited other groups, time would not permit so it was voted to print records made by recorders of various groups and the Conference is sending one of these books to each delegate. Should any teacher be interested in this I'm sure either of your delegates would be glad to loan it. At the final conference banquet held in the Crystal Ballroom we were honored in having' Dr. Elliot, chairman of the Association for Curriculum Development, Oshawa. Mr. Dunlop, Min ister of Education, Toronto also Mr. Atkinson, principal of Glebe Collegiate, Ottawa who gave a very inspiring as well as humorous address on "The Role of the High School Principal". One point stressed was the gap between Elementary School on one side and Universities on the other. If this gap could be bridged, more pupils could be successful in our universities. Your local delegate feels she spent a very profitable two days attending this conference and wishes to thank the school board for releasing her from her duties for one day.

On the job, his skillful work reflects his careful training. But more than that, we like to think that a friendly smile and unfailing courtesy lend a pleasant touch to his brief visit. We try to encourage this friendly spirit all through the business. You'll see it when you visit the Business Office. You'll hear it in the operator's "voice with a smile". This helpful, friendly spirit is one of the many ways in which we try to give you good telephone service.
