The "Scottish Traditâ€" ion" in spreading knowledge widely has overâ€"emphasized â€" the personal benefits of scholastic attainment. Success _ at school and university meant preferment, position, prizes, and getting on in life. So the schools have become instruments for breedâ€" ing "rugged individualism" and the "acquisitive spirit." Its philosophy is â€"every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost; to the victor beâ€" ong the spoils; to him endowed with gifts, let all the less gifted pay toll. It is the compelling spirit of Big 3usiness and Capitalism. This philosophy is inherent in the Calvinism that John Knox hammered into the Scottish character. The Proâ€" estantism of Luther accepted by the Germans and Scandinavians is a "sofâ€" ter" Protestantism than Calvin‘s, In part, it explains why the coâ€"operative spirit is possible in Denmark â€" and Germany; while the competitive spirâ€" it bolds in Canadian life generally in )wn and country. The country has ‘ vaid dearly for the Scottish Tradition. ‘ It has built up the town and ruled down the country. The educational I tragedy of Canada is that the counâ€" | f try has failed to retain for its own security such schools and schoolriasâ€" ters as might have given our farm g folk equal educational opportunity with the town. Country children bhave 3 1 This soâ€"called "Scottish ‘Tradition" in education requires a word of exâ€" planation. In a democratic sense it has been all to the good and deseryâ€" ing of praise. But from the social viewpoint as it has worked itself out in modern life, it has been disastrous and deserving of condemnation. The "Scottish Tradition" means that every child born into a Scottish home, no matter how poor, has an inalienable right to all the education of which he: or she is capable of receiving. This devotion to education was strongly urged by John Knox at the Reformaâ€" tion and is inwoven in the Scottish character. Every parish had its school and dominie. Scotland led England in popular education by over 200 years. I hardly need to tell anyone in Minâ€" to Township that our educational sysâ€" tem owes much to Scotland. The soâ€" called Scottish Tradition is in _ our educational blood and bones. The first _ School masters in Wellington Country were from Scotland. In Harâ€" riston, the first school was taught by a Scottish Schoolmaster whose daughter, Mrs. James Smith, is still with us as a well beloved pioneer. Mr. Wm. McEarchern and Mr. McKenzie were two of the earliest Minto Townâ€" ship teachers whom I remember. The Joth of them were Scotch. f I have told you something of Denâ€" mark and Sweden in previous articles and now I come to Scotland. This was the land of my forebears. It was something like coming home to see the places 1 had heard of from my parents in childhood. It is Bonnie Scotland in very truth. One could not escape the impression, though that times were very bhard. We saw many unemployed. Coming from Denmark, with its little farms and their indepâ€" endent owners, Scotland‘s countryâ€" side strikes one as a land of large land owners and tenants. [ Editor‘s Note: This is the eighth of a series of articles which were pubâ€" lished recently in the Harriston "Reâ€" view." While written specially for the "Review" and addressed to residents of Minto Township particularly, we believe they will be found interesting to many of the readers of this paper because the problems of the farm folk of Minto Township are the same problems that confront rural people throughout the province. i By Prof. S.

"Tom and Jim have not come home from school!" exclaimed Mrs. Thompson as she met her husband at the door on his return from work. If Minto were in Scotland, the ichools of the Township would be | idministered by an expert Direcior under a county scheme with the School Board one of the County Counâ€" cil Committees. All teachers would eceive the same salaries based on experience and academic standing, The provincial grants would cover all teachers‘ salaries secured from a proâ€" vincial income tax. All the pupils would have regular medical, dental and nursing â€" supervision. All .the schools would have expert instructâ€" ion in music and singing. Every home in the Township would be linked with the Libraries in Harriston, Clifford and Palmerston through the schools. Ift Scotland‘s plan were followed, the oneâ€"teacher country schools of Minto would gradually be. replaced by two or threeâ€"teacher country schools at Drew, Teviotdale, etc., with an Agriâ€" cultural College graduate as princiâ€" pal living in a teacher‘s residence alongside the school. He would be just as well paid as any teacher in town or city. In the winter months the older boys and girls would be back at school gefting instruction in advanced studies along the lines of Robertson‘s ideas as set forth in the| "Macdonald _ Movement" of thirty years ago. The lady assistant in the| ‘chool would be capable of giving inâ€"| j I But Scotland has turned over a new leaf. In her afterâ€"war reforms a 1918 School Act began the equalization ot educational opportunities for all chilâ€" dren including those living on farms. They have taken the emphasis oft the universityâ€"headed "lad o‘pairig," examinations, . prizes, scholarships, classics, and hofmlors. Scottish schools are now thinking more of serving the life needs of ordinary boys and girls. One of the Department officials in Edinburgh told me they were looking {or a new sort of teacher in Scotland for their pre schoolâ€"leaving agos. Not io much, teachers of high acaJemic standing as teachers who could inâ€" ‘pire boys and girls with interests in music, hobbies, good reading, play, zardening, handicrafts, home crolts, etc. Space does not permit me to give letails of the reforms underway _ in jcottish schools since 1918. I can only rint at a few. $500 teachers. City children have the $2000 teachers. There is something wrong. somewhere. Did you ever hear one cackle be. cause work was hard? Not on your life! They save their breath for digâ€" ding and their cackles mean eggs. Success means digging. Are you digging? Did you ever see a pessimistic hen? Did you ever hear of one starving to death waiting for worms to dig themâ€" selves to the surface? But always she digs up worms and turns them into bhard shelled profits, as well as tender and profitable broil. ers. If the ground is hard, she scratches harder. If it‘s dry, she digs deeper. If it‘s wet, she digs where it‘s dry. If she strikes a rock, she works around it. If she gets a few more hours of daylight, she gives us a few more Hard work means nothing to a hen. She just keeps on digging worms and laying eggs regardless of what the business prognosticators say about the outlook for this day or that year.
