and
arrangements
have
been,
made
for
a
rather
complete
observance
in1
Prince
Rupert
by
way
of
meetings,
school
visitations,
newspaper
articles
and
radio
addresses.
We
would'
commend
the
subject
to
the
serious
consideration
of
the
citizens.
So
well
organized
ami
so
smoothly
operating
has
become
our-educational1
system-
that
many
of
us
are
inclined1
to
take
it
as
a1
matter
of
course
without
-thought
or
appreciation.
Of
course,
some
of
us
sit
up
and
take
notice
whemthe
tax
bills
come
around
and
we"
realize
that
here
in
Prince
Rupert,
for
instance,
a
third
or
so
of
the
cost
of
municipal
operation
is
involved
in
schools
and'
providing
education.
.But
the
cost
of
education
is
not
out
of
line
with
its
importance
as
a
service
the
service
of
training
and
developing
our
future
eidzenshipi
It
is
the
one-ipublic
utility
which
is
almost
aiv
entire

for

It
is
well
that

should
be
ob-
Grved
and
that
the

should
become
more

who
has
learned
to
read,
and
also
to
use
an
arithmetic.

for
her
books.

nor,

as
an
excuse
to

She
asks
for
her
books
and
settles
in
to
work,
holding
her
book
and
pencil
high
up
in
her
small
hands.
She
works
till
her
hands
are
tired,
then
she
rests
a
while.
In
the
same
room
is
Rebecca
who
has
also
learned
to
use
a
reader
