G McCALL, Vancouver, corresponding secretary for the B. C. Parent-Teachers' Federation, must have been as much impressed with her audience here Monday night as they were with her. ; Tlie friendly, energetic and sincere P.T.A. executive from the south spoke to a keenly interested group of parents and teachers and seemed to project her enthusiasm to her listeners, v Repeatedly the eagerness of local P.T.A. members to elaborate on the speaker's points brought gracious Smiles of appreciation from Mrs. JMcCall, who, with a fund of material, answered many questions following a comprehensive review of the activities of the P.T.A. in B.C., across Canada and in the United States. It was evident from discussion that the Prince Rupert Parent-Teachers' Association is swinging along in pace .with the leading parent and teacher .organizations throughout the province. ;. The atmosphere of the Monday night meeting created by Mrs. Mc-Call's recounting of the extensive provincial-wide work of the P.T.A. and the enthusiasm and interest of local members was sufficient to capturo and delight the imagination of even non-members.

Toronto BEST FOOT FORWARD OS ANGELES Chamber of Com merce has lone wovpn iripnlisrir stories around the California climate. Its members goodnaturedly have hushed up news of periodic rain storms and other adverse weather. To hear them tell it, California is indeed a garden of Eden. Prince Rupert residents apparently also have learned the value of discounting rain squalls by maintaining cheery countenances at all times and being ever ready to extoll the city's mild climate and exhilarating air. This pride in what we have has grown noticeably in the last two years. Let those among us who still fail to appreciate Prince Rupert take a trip to several other cities. They will find districts, with climates far inferior to our own, hopefully bidding for more residents and tourists. So let's continue to put our best foot forward in Prince Rupert and, with the outlook of the optimist, declare our cup is half full not half empty.

Thanks to Trainer Inn, "Jasper the Crow" was patched up and when "Scheheraiade" recovered, all three friend returned to Holly-wood, where Jasper has won his first movie role in "Golden Earrings" with MarUne Dietrich and Ray MHland. W. P. Wright of Salmon Arm cautioned "there's no use of punching holes In our new scheme until we see how it works." A Greater Victoria delegate recognized costs had been more than anticipated but pleaded "let's attack this problem and Iron It out." D. J, Bull of Longley had an original idea lajter acknowledged bf Col. T. A. Fairey. Denctv Minister of Education, as merit ing investigation, toward excise taxes and gasoline taxes on school busses bought and operated being removed. He argued such a move would be in line with exemptions extended farmers and would enable transportation problems being met. "Water Ls land," Delta was assured for taxing purposes when posing the problem of levying school taxes on "rov houses." No Land Tax Ilelief "The Impression abroad," declared D. B. Brankln, life member from New Westminster and resolutions chairman, "is that the government Is not living up to the Cameron report by giving relief from land taxes." The whole question of basic grants should be reconsidered In the llht cf rising costs, he said. Additional administrative burdens placed upon school Inspectors were deplored by C. H. Martinson of North Vancouver who pointed to the effect such extra duties have had on normal duties of Inspectors. Equalized opportunities of education were held unattainable by J. H Clark, from the Peace River. He volqcd bitterness of the meagre grants afforded remote, scattered areas, In lioldlne such monies "Insufficient to attract he' best type of teachef." 'There ls something of a danger," he feared, "in the B.C. Teachers' Federation deallna with each board separately." He suggested tlTe department of education reculatlne the whole scale of wages in attack ing "the vicious system of richer districts Increasing and increasing wages." Children Paramount Mf. Wilson of Chllliwack placed upon trustees Jln rural area.; and that expenses have h.nn UAA..tAH I. . . I uvcii nca hi man joreseen. Teachers Demands He further summarized that teachers' demands have been in excess of basic schedules and that the basic five mill tax levy Is Inadequate and requires bol stering by local taxes. Col. Falrey considered encouragement lay in most complaints having concerned taxes and casts rather than the fundamental alms. He recognized gaps in the new school act. In uolntlne out how the plan has only been od- erativS six months or less, stress- i ing inai aajusiments will nave to be made. He denied a suggestion that assessors had been at Vlctorl.i to raise assessments, as advanced in discussion. "The key to the whole sys tern," he recognized, "Ls In assessments," In describing how the department ls striving to devise a code of assessment that will meet the needs evidenced In discussion, Basic Minimum He pointed out it is Incumbent upon the government to appoint a Royal Commission to seek an equal assessment basis. He described as the Irreducible minimum the amount represented by five mills .for basic costs, and was Inclined to feel that trustees busy themselves with too much detail, as concerning some of the tasks he so fully appreciated they had tackled In a manner for which he felt Indebted. He acknowledged that transportation and building problems might be Included In the basis program, as suggested In the forum, and that "certainly boards can't keep competing one with another," As regards Workmen's Compensation' being applied to teachers he was Inclined to eon- slder they are "reasonably cov ered" already, In citing how remote are' accident claims In the profession, apart from specific specialities.
