A specialist in tho growing of wheat and other grains finds himself in a community where there are farms of this sort. An instructor with a highly-developed knowledge of bacteriology is sent into the Fraser Valley where there are numbers of dairy farms. These specialists are called district supervisors of elementary agricultural education and work under Mr. J. W. Gibson, director of this work under the department, of education. There are 14 district supervisors in \i. C, four of whom are stationed throughout the Fraser Valley at Chilliwack, Murrayville, Clover- dale and New Westminster.

FEARN, Directors' - -- MRS: L.' COGHLAN MRS. J. A. H. GRAY Sec.-Treas. - MRS. THOS.\" OSWALD, Raise, Entrance Class Standards ' By regulations just issued at Victoria the standard for high school entrance has been .raised - materially. Hitherto an average of 50 per cent, was demanded on all subjects from senior grade students, who,., might however, drop as low as 34 per cent, on individual subjects. By the new standard an average of 60 per cent, is expected on the following subjects: English grammer and composition, arithmetic, writing, spelling and dictation, geography and drawing. The circular issued by the department does not state what mininmum . on any individutl subject is required, but it is concluded that it is' 34 per cent. No reason has been assigned for raising the 'standard and it is pre- sumedt hat it is in answer to the complaint frequently raised by high school and University teachers that students are not well grounded in elementary work. - The result of the new rules, as pointed out by a deputation of principals from the public schools who met the Vancouver Board last week, will be that not more than 20 or 30 per cent, will be ablo to pass tho entrance examinations as- the classes are at present constituted. This means in turn, they explained, that the upper grades in the pubhc schools will be congested and that many pupils will drop out of school. THE TALE OF A SHIRT One story is told of a prominent parliamentary man concerning an occasion when he was announced to speak at a meeting in a small Western town.

Merchants Baak- of Canada, is the oldest iBank in tlie Dominion. It was establtelie'd -in 1817 and during over a , Century, 0f co-op-: eration in developing, Canadian trade and! ndustry has been,so closely allk ed with many of the largest ijndertak ings of the country th^t its hjstory 1\"b largely the.history of the' Dominion. Tht oldest Bank ' in British\" North America and one of^bedargestin the British Empire, it has effected this great work with such a kindly touch of co-operation ;,that,it has always, enjoyed the confidence, one5 might' almost say the affection,- ,bank. but also .in preventing anything even remotely resembling a dislocation ,in the business- with .which the,, Merchants BaDk was associated.. , It..is generally felt that,.the customers .of the Merchants Bank 'have been fortunate in finding that the Bank which,has,served them so weH'Mhas.been able, when :difficul- ties'arose, - to- merge- with such a strong-dahd helpful .institution as the Bank of Montreal. Pi TvFederation lipids Discussion The regular monthly meeting of the' Vancouver' Parent-Teacher Fedei- a'tiori was held'on Thursday evening, Feb! 23, in the.Technical School-aud- ltbrium, Mrs: Witcomb, the president, in- the chair. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\" Parents, teachers and school principals were invited to attend,-as the'meeting was called for the purpose of considering the new regulations, relative to the entrance examinations. -. At the. beginning of the meeting it was. stated that an open discussion had been asked for by an association and it had been decided upon not in a spirit of fault finding, but as a means in the entrancec lass could be promot- criticism could be maae. Betore any speaker took the floor a letter was read from the department of educa- tpn, in which the announcement was made that 60 per cent, of the pupils in the entrance class ceulcj be promot ed on recommendation of the principal and the remaining 40 per cent would have to take examinations in grammar, \"composition, arithmetic, \"geography and drawing, and would have to make a percentage of 60 \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDmarks in each to pass. ' The first speaker, a high school principal, stated that he was not sure that the time had come to do without examinations. In some cases the examination wab a stimulus both to pupil and teacher. That a single examination at the end of a year us a sole judge of a p,upU's ability was a severe strain, he agreed, but tliis was seldom the case. ' In tiie high school four completely new subjects were taken, up.- If the work'.in the public schools was not thoroughly done the children would have to repeat years in high school. He disclaimed any knowledge of . what had led to the changes'in the regulations. All pupils sent up to the high .school he did not consider good material, and it was his opinion that the public school ought to take an . equal share in keeping such pupils for ire- peat years. There was a danger that public school pupils were shoved . on. because of a pressure of lack of accommodation hi lower.- years of .the public school. . The next speaker was\" ' a public school' principal. - He\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD-believed, that there had-been a certain,amount of resentment among high school principals owing-to, the- fact, that, the;.power to recommend pupils rested with,the lower school principals. He/held that the entrance examinations\" were /.not proper tests as they were only a subjective valuation and, were unreliable.

Intelligence j;and pedagogical tests which.could be;i applied by the principal could also be relied upon. There was a'scientific classification which, determinedi(;how many children'in a \"class were .fit to be promoted. --AVith this classification, the new regulations' would utterly conflict. -' The subjects ihosen for the examinations were arbitrary- and were for \"the interests' of the3igh School rather than-in the interests of the \"pupils. \"There \"was no doubt] j hat their- enforcement.'would' kse.0 ,lria;iy children out of an j advanced education. There was'no justice in insisting that any child who entered; thd high school 'should be,able to proceed to matriculation,, as'mart'y : children could go to the first or second^ year and no further.

He held that both types of schools existed for the children and j. their good. 'He would\";''heartily welcome some check in\" promotions to High School, as it would relieve him of someLot\the responsibility. It wtas necessary ' to. eliminate pupils whoj! could not take the step to.the upper \"school, and this in certain\" cases\" was accomplished by examinations.,But it seemed- folly to assume '\"that the '\"pupils less fitted could make 60 per cent, in such examinations when only a sriiall percentage of the best j? pupils made so high a mark in former., years. The danger >in- the -new'v.regulations was in the fact that many more children would be e'xcluded\"fr6iri''advanc- ed education.-. At: present .there is no means of.knowing how the new papers will be marked or what standard will be set. Another, teacher, advocated >the diversity of thV High'vSchool course to meet the different capacities, of the pupils and a scientific survey-of both Public and High Schools to ascertain the existing situation and\" what should be done' to remedy it.^ The bulk of humanity d]oes not reach the mehtality of 14 years. Another teacher,.believed that the record of the..pupils for. their whole school career should be.the ^.basis of consideration for .promotion. This new method would condemn jsome of the-brightest intellects.the^wbrld has ever seen. It is illegal and a alur on the intelligence .of public school principals. ' Examinations have their place but they are not the whole thing. In reply to. a question as to what would happen to the\"40' per cent, if they failed, James. Blackwood, school trustee, pointed out that there should be junior high schools or work shops to care for these pupils and fit them for present needs. Opinions were expressed by parents that the cause of the new regulations' was the lack of space in.the schools. -. At this point a general discussion took place on what would be the fate of the children who failed to pass the examinations. Would they drop out of school entirely through' discouragement? J. Blackwood was of the. opinion that the important question .was the fate of the children who failed and that the government ought to offer a substitute to the High School in the form of Junior High School or Technical Schools. Mrs. Macaulay also expressed herself as feeling that the new regulations were not. a mark of progress.
