GEORGE ARTHUR CANN George Arthur (Tom) Cann, who lived in Weston for the past seven years at the home of his grandson, Frank Spraggs, " Stewart Smith Dr., died March] 8th at a Toronto nursing home} where he had been far two; weeks following a heart attack. ‘He was 87. Born in Wardsworth, England,‘ Mr. Cann came to Canada at they age of_three and received his education in Toronto. His late 1wife, Elizabeth Cann, "iied in Ga _ Past Lodge, . . .

Nor have they been idle in attemptinl to solve the problem. Both the oil industry and the plckinl industry u. good examples in this regard. However, recognition of improvement is one thing; complete solution is another. As we have noted, the effects ot unemployment are cumulative. Conversely, so are the benefits of increased employment. Employers, striving to level-att aeasdnal variations of employment in their own in, duatries, should still give thought to any means by which they can assist others. One such, which comes readily to mind, concerns any contemplated construction. It this can be scheduled during the slack employment sea- son, a great step forward is achieved. In mid-February, the National Employment Committee met in ottada. Seasonal unem- ployment was one at the highlights of its dis. cuuiom. Though, " the time of going to presu, its daemon: and recommendations were not published, they will undoubtedly receive full support from industry for any mmms'by which this serigus problem can be alleviated or solved. It is in the interest of every Can, adian to turn Canada from an eight-month country. not to a ten-month country, but no a fully-occupied twelve-month country. Cann belonged to that organize. tipn for 64 years. . H. was a driver for tin: Hay- hoe Tea Co. on Front St. for over 20 years.

Thursday, March llth. Inter- ‘ment was in Prospect Cemetery. I Although teachers found it somewhat of a strain to have a group of parents sit in the room for the greater part of the week, there was general agreement‘ that in no better way is it pos- sible to have parents under- lstand what the school is trying vto do. They also see how their (own child is measuring up, and lhis progress can be better un- derstood than by any report form that might be devised. There is no bang-way to gain} the understanding and co-opera- ition of parents, they felt. l Pall-bearers were: J smog Locke, Melford Locke, Austin Locke, Gordon Spragge, Cyril Spragge and Douglas Spragge. (Continued from page 1) [ The response was splendid, and, at some time during the week there were 480 vivsits from par- ents who calm! to sit in the classrooms to see how classes' are carried on. It war expected that not many fathers would be able to attend, but a number took time off front work to come. Classrodms At Humber Heights [HEEL] a. o. tutu-on. MM d the (he.

In a' number of ways this year, the, [chool has sought to bring this about For instance, at the oe- tober meeting of the Home and ‘School Association a special in- ‘vitatlon was sent to all parents of Grade 1 pupils. Great num- berl came to hear a panel dil- cuuion telling how reading is taught to beginners, and how these biglnners actually learn to read. Also in October, all parents of _Mrir. Lawrenee's special Grade 2 1were invited to meet with the teacher and principal to have explained to them the reason for forming the special class, and the methods used to help pupils pron-en successfully. I Great numbers of parents voiced their pleasure at being able to visit the school, and their satisfaction with what they saw; Typical of the comments; were these: i "I never understood before, how a teacher carries on." "'1 am amazed how a teacher is able to teach by grouping and keep everyone busy." _ “Now I understand exactly how to help my child at home.", "I see that teachers need to have a great deal. of patience.'", "We like the bright, cheerful rooms and the happy atmos- phere. The children love com- ling to school." "I do not know how you keep control. I cannot manage two," etc. At the November meeting of In iiiiiiiro"n to these and owe. the Home and School, a ditreusr. activities, interviews are con. lion ttf report an“ W3! led by stantly being arranged betweer Mt Cooper, Principal of Park parents and teachers to discus: Lawn School, who thawed the problems which arise with re thinking behind the present re-apect to the children.

This life of Peter Marshall was edited by his widow, Catherine Marshall, and has a great mes- sage for our times. Come to our service at 7 pm. and share in this great challepge. T There will be a change in our morning Sunday Schools next week: since September we have offered two identical schools at 10.00 and 11.30; but because of the difficulty of staffing and accommodation, the Nursery and Kindergarten will be offered now at the 10.00 o'clock service only. Thefedwill'be a full range of ages at the 10.00 o'clock and from six-twelve yea,rs, that is Primary and Junior at the 11.30 service. The Intermediate and Senior divisions meet in organiz- ed classes and choose their own hours. We hope that this change iwill not inconvenience. too many ‘of our families and that it will not crowd the 10.00 o'clock Lchurch service too much. We are in the midst of our: Lenten series for both morning] and evening. The study of the booklet. "I Will 'Build My Church" will bring us to our] third sermon "To Preach the' Gospel". This is proving to be tV very challenm study, especial- ly to those who are making the booklet their devotional heipl during Lent. The evening wiiii discuss Paul's 13th Chapter of!
