While they are mutually .in- teradependent, they have different in- terests and ideals. It follows that the educational methods of each must be adapted to the needs of each. In primary, secondary, and higher education, and in the training of teachers, it is generally conceded that the needs of the urban classes are fairly well proV'ideil for. It is not so in the country districts. Here, primary education. for various reas- ons, has been rather disappointing in results. Practically no provision has been made for rural secondary education. apart from a few poorly equipped continuation classes; and no provision is made for the profes- sional training of rural teachers un- der faVorable rural conditions. The Agricultural College at Guelph is ad- mitted to be one of the best in Am- erica, yet it has not vital connection with rural schools as at present conâ€" stituted. While the claim is made that ur- ban and rural educational methods should be specially fitted to the cir- cumstances of each. there should be no cleavage. Each system should be complementary to the other, and to- ;gether they should form a unity. ‘Every school in either system should be open to any child whose educa- tional interests would be furthered by being admitted. If the results of rural educational methods have, from a rural int of View. been disappointing, e may find the causes among the following: 1. Lack of facilities for complet- mg an all-round rural education that will retain and strengthen rural ideals. ‘ i i entrance examination fipon the rural schools, ‘hn-d the transfer~ of pupils at an impressionable'age to urban schools dominated by‘ prban ideals. awvv-a uvlla-flwvvvâ€" ‘ . 3. Deficiencies in. théâ€"I‘haracter. training. and remuneration of teach- ’I‘he present public school curricul- um, if rationally taught, seems to be' fairly well adapted to meet the requirements of a. primary education for both urban and rural communi- ties. We should not trouble our- Iolveq overmuch about the number of things a child knows, but rather-how he hows them and how he has learn- ed them. The important factor, therefore, is the teacher. who is aft- a' nil the school. _ If the teacher has enthusiasm, intelligence. and charac- ter, and is dominated by proper ideals, the right kind of work will be done no matter what the draw- bgch may be. The weakness in the primary schools is largely owing. not to the course of studies prescribed. but rather to the lack of adaptation on the part of the teachers. the caus- es of which will' be referred to lat- The curriculum provides a. good course in nature study, which. if fol- Iowed intelligently. should tend to keep the 5151001 in touch with the ru- 4L9- :4 “W?

The course of study should be sufficiently elastic to provide (1) for those who wish to prepare for college or for en- trance to a normal school, and (2) for these who simply desire a. gener- al education to fit them better for life on the farm. As many of the boys as possible should be encourag- ed to look forward to a course at. the Ontario Agricultural College. and the girls to a. course at the Macdon. and institute or some similar institu- ti( n. - Phe school terms should be equally elastic to suit the convenience of the farming community. The school year should extend from September to June. with sufficient vacation per- iods to suit busy seasons on the farm. the time and duration of these vacation periods to be under the con- trol of local schoolhoards. Only male teachers should be em- ployed. the preference being given to those who haVe been reared on the farm and especially to those who are graduates of the ().A.C. This is to ensure not only a sympathetic touch with rural conditions, but to enable the boys to acquire incidentally much useful instruction on farm topics. Where it is necessary to employ an assistant teacher. the preference should be giVe'n to properly qualified female teachers. The remuneration I\IAA.â€". of these teachers should corrospoad to that paid to high school teachers in urban centres. There seems to be no great reason why farmer-5' sons and daughters should not attend such a. school as this up to the age of 18 or 20. The school building might be made the centre of local social and edUCation- al mOVaments. Suitable stabling for horses and rigs should be an asset» tial part of the nccommocauons us these schools. Since the Ontario GOVernme'nt has‘ control of rural education and also of the 0.A.C., why cannot they be made organic parts of the one sys- tem ? Why should not graduates of the 0.A..C. who are young men from the farm, in close t-ouch with rural life, and imbued with rural ideals. be encouraged to enter the teaching profession ? What an influence they would wield in the community ! And why should not rural youths look iforward to such institutions as the 0.A.C. and the Macdonald Institute grat'her than to urban schools, as ‘their educational goal ? Where pos- .sible, consolidation, or a modified A_-_!_ form of it, should be amazed ; teach- ers' residences should he provided. and salaries should be paid commen- sumbe with the importance of the work. The question is mainly a. fi- nancial one, but. the returns would warrant the expenditure. The ma The improvement of rural educa- tion is vitally connected with the question of the training of rural teachers. and here again we find that. the country child does not get a. fair deal. According to the 1906 report of the Minister or Education, 92} per cent. of those who hold third- class certifiwtes or low qualifica- tions are teaching in rural schools. This means that the urban model schools exiSted mainly for Ithe train- ing of rural teachers. For many - A __A_-_...t..

In their place we are have the old normal schools reorgan- ized and new training schools estab- lished. Unfortunately, however, the new system does not. so far as announc- ed, make specific provision {or the training of rural teachers under con- ditions'which will develop what may he called the agricultural spirit, without which rural education will ‘fall far short of the Met].

Such a system makes the establishing of rural training schools an absolute necessity. Many friends of rural education were dis- appointed that the Minister of Agri- culture did not insist upon having a normal training sch001 afllliated with Canada's great agricultural college at Guelph, where the environment would be more in keeping with rural ideals. It may be that the claims of the rural community will not be recognized until their representatives in the Legislature do what the coun- try members of the State Iezislature of Illinois did a short time ago. Vii... refuse to vote appropriations, to any great extent, for training sch'-oi purposes on the plea that the coun- AL- _. l“ try. as distinguished from the m u, ditl not receive sufficiently :lirmtbnd anm ciuble benefits from them. It has been suggested that a mod- el school of a distinctively runl (.m- should he built and equipped along- side each of the normal schoms, and that the children for such a school might. be brought in vans from the ncurl‘l-oring rural districts or map. plin-o by the local urban szhools S m an arrangement might ‘md to some improvmnent, but it would mt sum iy the environment and spirit so cosmtiul to the realization or “rail ideals.

In connection with the Terra Hauto (In- diana) State Normal School, there is a model rural training school sit- uated in a township about six miles east 0!

It is available to all students of the normal school and some practice in it is required of every graduate. WisconSin and Illinois have estab- lished county training schools for the specific purpase of training teachers {or the work of the one- room district schools. State Super- intendent Cary, of Wisoneonsln, says: "It may be said without exaggera- tion that counties which maintain these county training schools have] as a general thing. a corps of coun-‘ ty teachers abOVe the average in efli-‘ cioncy." The training school faculâ€" ty '0! one of these schools (Dunn‘ county) are able to visit their stu- ‘dent gradmtes while at work in ‘their several schools. As many as thirty-six of these Visits have been made in a single year. and in the judgment of the prindpal no better service had been rendered to the schools of that county.

In September and October he will visit,.in and out of the state, those places in which the new work is done in and 'lor the country schools.

At least one man} from each district is required toist-g bend, and his expenses are paid, and i he further draws a per diem homom-l rium for attendance. In this v'myi he will enlighten and inspire some} school official in every local rural. district in the state.

HUGHES. Kiumount, Oct. 9.â€"What was per- haps in many respects the best po- litical meeting ever held in Kin- mount, took place here on Thursday night 8th inst.. under the auspices of ‘ Col. Hughes, and though there were three other important meetings, a superior Mnsonic lodge gathering in Kinmount. n (owl supper, at Burnt River, and an important Orange meeting at Silver Lake. yet the and- ienco was one of the largest ever as- sembled at Kinmount. The rumor was early passed around that Mr. John Austin was to nddre§s_the Jlng,â€"_QZ number of local Lib- erals as well as several 150m Gd- may, joined the immense Conserva- tive gathering. The galleryand the floor were both filled and many stood‘ at the rear of the hall. Col.Hughes gave a scathing review of the sin: 0! the Laurier Government. and an outline of the policy of Mr. Borden. Mr. Austin followed and received a law hearing. me statements were as usual rather wild. In reply Col. Hughes answered every statement in oonclueive fashion. Hr. Austin had claimed the Government had had such unexampled good times, and land made such enormous sums of money. He also boasted that only recently they had been able to bor- row in England millions at 3} per loent. Col. Hug-hes wished to know What, such a rich GOVu-nmem was borrowing for. Mr. Austin also taunted the Conservatives re Bayne the alleged tractor to whisky in Col- cheater. Col. Hughes drew Mr. Aus- tin's attention to the {act that the use had been called in court this week and been dismissed for lack of evidence. Bayne was not a Tory, but a Liberal and they feared he might expose them. But Col. Hughes asked Mr. Austin why he did not condemn the Liberal revising o!- fieer there who maliciously left out many Tory mines in framing the vo- Holds Meeting At Kinmount bers' list recently. Again Col. Hughes emphaticnlly so posed Mr. Austin's chnrgee again“. Mr. Foster and the Foresters, and showed that Foster purchased lands in the open market as any one had the rightâ€"not from the Government by secret deal as did the Grit boodlc AL- nnn COMMENDABLE MOVE.
