A rather surprising fact, brought to light by Edi

in this era of high pressure horn

more showy side ‘events, ’

in Canada, has tripled in the seven years since e the war from a total
national membership of 77,800 in 1946 to 218,900 in 1953,

* This is evidence of growing interest in ‘Saucation which is
further indi: ad by the
papers and on the ratio, 0! goal ois and

better attendance: noted at school peer and displays, and the
radio forums, discussion groups and conferences that are now part
and parcel of everyday living for many Canadians,

These trends would indicate that: more and more Canadians are
coming to appreciate the truth of the maxim’ “Education is Every-
body’s Business,” which is the theme of Education Week, all next
week, March 7 to 13, And it's manly | because the probldins of educa-

But uaivs teacher, as Mr. Craft
said, is more important than :the
method; the machine in the plant
in which he works and his num-
bers are dropping. But this loss
of the very life blood, the founda-
tion of education, is not getting
the attention it deserves. Why?
In the first place,” as Darwin’
Baird points out in his ‘radio
series, Around Home, “there
no actual teacher shortage in this

tion have had the i and t of Cana-
dians in all' walks. of life, that aeadcatins has ¢ come a long way in
Canada.

p Every cl is
open, This fact fh has lulled school
boards and citizens into a feeling|
of over other areas

Canadians, young and old, have far greater qodae
to become well educated, useful and happy citizens than ever be-
fore., Greater progress has been made in educational stand:
teaching methods, the span of formal and adult educational activi-
ty and’the number and design of school buildings, |

But the picture is not perfect by any means, There are still
many problems and they too seem to be increasing. As the number
of Canadians-in school increases, at the rate of 100,000 per year,
2,500 new classrooms must be built each year to accommodate, them.
More pupils each year means there must be more teachers and
more highly qualified if are to be
maintained and improved. i

Perhaps too, the education our schools are providing,. is not all
it should be as is claimed by Dr. Hilda Neatby of jthe University
«of Saskatchewan who asserts: “The bored” da of

where real shortages are being

ards | felt. What we have not known up

to now is this; there are many
scores of teachers in this prov-
ince who have no qualifications
for the job.”

The great steel industry of the United States is currently facing
a sharp decline in demand. A short while ago the U.S. -mills were
working at capacity; are now down to 70.6 per cent of that. It would
be overly optomistic to believe that the Canadian, industry can
,escape the backwash of such conditions.

steel industry, and to the th of other i jes related to

went ahead like a good fellow, granting everything asked. Would
that be smart for all of us? Would it even be honest?
