It seems rather a pity that the school board could not have seen their way clear to continue the University first year class at the local high school. The ol to the city would have been very small a the Provincial Oovernment pays nml of the expenses. If there are eight pupils offering, the class would have neeii worm continuing. At the time when it was decided to close down there were but Ihree or four pupils who seemed likely to attend and even that number was doubtful. Today the (Mixtion is changed. It is the duly of the school board to carefully conserve the finances of the eily and lo see that no money is spent unnecessarily. At the same time their first duty is to see Hint proper educational facilities are provided. While it is argued that it j better for pupils to attend thf university rather than take the course here, the contra argument is that some of the students are girls who are loo young to be sent away 7roni home lo a strange eily where they would bis-the home influences. Just what will be done in regard to the eight students who wished to take the course here is not intimated. Possibly some of them will attend the university and the others will remain al home am) their educational course is ended. Education Obtained By Doing Things. The other day a lecture was given over the radio invh'uh the 'fMiinjf was stressed that" all edut'alioii was the result of ar lion. Either il was the result of action or the brain ir muscles. Educalion cannot be imparled. II must be acquired. One does noi necome n runner without running and one does not learn lo think without thinking. Ill oilier words education cannot be obtained by listening, although hearing an address is often a great stimulus to education. There is a somewhat prevalent idea lhal a person can become a sportsman by watching ganjes. They may be helped in learning by watching Ihose win play well, but il is only by playing that one learns lo play. Danger In University Method Of Training. j That is one of Hie dangers in university training. The students listen lo lectures and they have little opportunity to reproduce what they hear except at examinations. There is lot much listening and not enough doing. Many educationists believe that the kindergarten method should be followed throughout Ihe school course. Students should be doing all Hie-time and listening should be a very small part of the course. Very often children who leave school al an early age and go to work excel those wbo attend Ihe high . school classes anil the university, simply because Ihey gel down al once lo the first principles of education. They learn to do by doing. As long as the student continues a system of wide reading, especially of liooks or an educational nature, he is educalintr himself often better than be would al a university. The difficulty is that most young folks lose the stimulus for study as soon as Ihey leave school. TJipy become, absorbed , in., llie gaities of social life and their intellectual ediicalioi-slotii.. ; I .V . ' : i - '; AY This is: a good,tinfe to plan for winler study. What course is to Ik followed during Ihe long evenings? Will the time be wasted in parties mid light reading or will a system of serious slimy be adopted, looking lo real educational development? Thi is a good lime lo map out a course that will be beneficial and interesting. ' "TRY A NIP TONIGHT."
