w 1 w f 1 y l I , l l l l l l l l l i e t l l i i eooage rom the inioter of Qcluccduork, OU who are graduating from the Normal School to take up duties in the classrooms of Ontario do so at a notable t1me for never has S 5 the prestige of the teaching profession been higher than it is to- day. Underlying this improved status is a keen sense, on the part of the public, of the teacher's increasing responsibility. No longer is the teacher regarded as a mere middleman purveying a uniform course of study to a so-called average pupil. Child study has banished that concept forever. Curriculum and method must be adapted to individual boys and girls, and to individual communities. It is the teacher who must do this adapting. For that reason the teachers of the Province are now being asked to take part in curriculum building on a local basis. The invitation reflects the faith of the public in the men and women who instruct our children. I am confident that you Will justify that faith, and that you will take an active interest in the work of the curriculum com- mittees in your district. My heartiest good Wishes for success and happiness follow you as you enter your chosen profession. Jill!!! Uiffflf MINISTER OF EDUCATION.
