The members of this Company are all trained rtists;-with most unusual voices. The soprano, Miss Pemberton, has a lovely voice with a wide range. Miss Melbane, the contralto, sings. with charming effect, and smoothness. Wm, Butler, the first tenor, not only filled his. part well in the choruses but was very pleasing in his solos. John B. Stall- worth, mentioned as the greatest basso of his race, held the audience spell-bound with his range of voice. Mr. Shaver, the leader of the troupe was not only a talented singer but a dramatic reader. The pianist is also a musician of skill and technique. She is a graduate of Northwestern Conservatory of Music. We congartulate the Young Peoples' Soclety of the United Churéh in bring- ing such talented artists to Port Perry.. It is reported the Carolina Singers are booked for Port Perry next season; | the case, the passing of the bill apportioning corporation taxes to 4 PORT PBR, ONTARIO, THURSDAY APRHL 16th, 1936 The Division of Corporation | on Taxes + "There is a phase of this controversy about the right of. Separate Schools to a share corporation taxes that seems to have heen largely overlooked--the. effect of the action recently taken by the Provincial Legislature upon the pupils, the future Canadian citizens, This really is the all-important matter, for education is our gift to the children. Will the passing of the corporaton tax bill enhance the value of this gift or lower it? Growth of Education and State Support It must be admitted that the development 'of education was' largely due to the church: and, in the early days, that meant the Roman Catholic Church. Fine spirited priests kept the lamp of learning burning in a world that was either indifferent or violently. opposed to the spread of knowledge. As learning spread, and the demand for education increased the financial burden be- came too great for the church to bear.alone. Naturally, recourse was had to the State; and with some degree of reason, for the services their schools were performing were more than simply teaching the creeds and dogmas of the church. The appeal for assistance was gradually granted. There was a condition attach- ed to these grants, however. A standard of education was set up, and the Government put restrictions upon sectarian teaching. As grants increased and years passed, the Church had less and less control of general education, until finally our Public School system was established, and sectarian religious teaching was dropped from the course of study, except in Separate Schools for Roman Catholics, which were established under special provisions in the British North America Act, ; "Godless" Schools. A resulting criticism of this tendency was that the Public Schools were branded as "Godless", and the necessity for the per- petuation of Separate Schools was based on the-lack of religious teaching in the Public School system; "The Church May Teach Religion The obvious retort to this accusation is that it is the busi- ness of the church to teach its own creeds at such time and in such manner as may be best devised--and to pay for that teaching. But sectarian teaching should not be imposed upon the children in school hours, nor paid for by public funds. With this thought in view, provision has been made for the Ry of religion in| Public Schools' by persons properly qualified to do such teaching. The teaching of religion is a matter of real iniportance, and cannot properly be undertaken by the multitude of teachers, most of whom have neither the special training nor jie aptitude for such teaching of this difficult subject. : What is Religion? There and be no.confusion as to what is Pen by ligion" which the dictionary defines as--*"A beliéf binding the spiritual nature of man to a supernatural being,' oni whom he. ig conscious that he is dependent." "" This is very différent from the teaching of the principles of good gportsmanship;- or 'the moral obligations of the pupil to society. These ideas can best be taught incidentally in relation to the Course of Study, in the events that transpire in the lives of the pupils, and in the world at large. This type of teaching is done less by precept than by actual living. A smile, a frown, a curl of the lip, praise or blame of some act of the pupil--these are much moye effective than many set lessons or precepts, and they are a mirror of the character of the teacher. Honesty may be the best policy, but if dishonesty pays immediate dividends, and honesty is punished for its very frankness, then the precept will become null and void. Separate Schools Appear to Be Here to Stay. However, Separate Schools are here, and the only way in which they can be removed is hy the repeal of the clause of the British North America Act, granting special privileges to the Roman Catholic people. The British North America Act cannot be amended or repealed without consent of six of the Provinces of the Confederation. It must also be remembered that-in the religious census of 1931, Roman Catholics numbered 4,285,388 out of a total of 9 914. 644 whose religious affiliations were tabulated. : Mere Condemyation Useless A mere outhurst of condemnation against these schools will not be effective, especially if the persons making the outery give no tangible evidence of support of religion in churches other| than the Roman Catholic. There are thousands of persons whose opposition to Separate Schools is most pronounced; but who show little or no practical interest in the development of fine character in the community. Every such person indirectly makes the Separate School more firmly settled as a part of our educational system, The Political Situation It must always be remembered that votes count." Such- ing Public and Separate Schools will not conclude the matter. This is very evident when itis noted that the Roman Catholic popula- tion of Ontario is twenty-two per cent. Certain it is that the introduction of this subject into Pro- vincial politics will induce much thinkng as. to the ultimate results of the action taken;-and no wielding of the party whip will ensure unswerving loyalty when one is convinced that a great principle is at stake. The :-Duty of the Church N Recent developments in the character of our people have re- vealed the need for moral and religious teaching. Protestant ministers have not-lived up to their privileges in this respect, and it is becoming increasngly evident that a demand is growing that this teaching (so essential to good citizenship) shall find a proper place in school life, Jnder the guidance of those who have been specially trained for that particular, work. But the churches must finance religious teaching, particularly that of a sectarian character, no matter by whom it is done. It cannot fairly be'placed-as a financial burden upon the taxpayers as a whole, who may hold very divergent opinions in the matter, or be entirely unconcerned as to religious teaching. It is a duty and an opportunity facing the churches--Protestant and Roman Catholic a ike. « The Child is All-Important We end where we began--what is good for the pupils is the alkimportant matter. If the schools can become the vehicle, with the help of the churches, for instilling true worship, and the practical brotherhood of a broad visioned and unselfish religion, that will be a fine contribution for them to make. But, if we foster sectarianism; and develop bigotry, it will be one of the worst *s6n, of Toronto, , ronto, Mr. Aileen Mountjoy. bequests.
