Karr of the Department of Education addressing the Annual Convention of 1927 stressed the ere thati + y of symp between local school authorltiea aud; the Department of Educati courses S-- types of schools, | the i In the elementary school, the pupils + have instruction in the special sub- jects, manual training and household science, The continuation - school, "| any reasonable assistance by partment enable it to. do se. larger unit of administration than the section with greater financial backing, must be established before any im- provement in educational conditions in rural communities can be attained. Co-operation of the people in a larger area 'must be secured. i a larger administrative unit, co-operate in an effective way as it is already doing in the urban centres. With such a unit it would be possible to provide special instruction in rufal in igh school, or llegiat i gh which practically every. urban tary agriculture, 'manual training) and household centre is supplied, provides ad instruction fitting for the university , or the normal sehool, or for business life.

"Without co-operation between the two," said Dr. Karr, "any systematic 'scheme would be impofgible. The basic condition of successful co-operation," said the speaker, "is mutual trust and confidence." Each must belive in the sincerity and honesty of purpose ot the other. The desire of the Depart- ment of Education," said Dr. Karr, "is to provide equal educational op- portunities for all the children of the province. Unless this equality ot opportunity is provided there. is un- fairness to some children--an injust- ice for which the responsibility must somewhere be placed. The Depart- ment will never be satisfied with educational conditions .in this Prov- ince--and I am sure the same can pe said with equal truth of you--until every child has an equal chance with every other child to develop the best that it is in. him to become. It will be acknowledged at once that urban communities are better supplied with educational opportun- ities than rural communities.

Is there any good reason why|: similar courses should not be avail- able to every rural child? It is true that to those pupils who live near an urban centre or whose parents can af- ford to send them there, some of these courses are already available, But even to these pupils thé courses pro- vided in the town school are not al- together satisfactory. Established as they are in urban centres, these courses are designed for urban child- ren and not for rural children, who in|" many cases need instruction specially fitting them for agricultyral work, In any case, for many 5 the some other means is tak them, Rural Parents Demand Higher cation for Their Childrei Fortunately in this da few people to.
