endeavoring to examine the teaching profession and the role of the teacher.It might be interesting, this week, to say a word or two of what leaders in Education expect of the teacher.The list of \u201crequirements\" is long, and in all probability not too rigid, in a time of greater teacher shortage such as the present.but the Education Leader is prone to expect the teacher to possess \u201ca communion of traits, inherited or acquired, impressive enough to deter an angel.\" The teacher is expected to have (and these are not in any special order) a pleasing personal appearance.poise, refinement, and pleasantness of manner.She must be industrious, ambitious, forceful, progressive, and work with a great deal of \u201cdrive\" and initiative.And « of course we want our teacher to be enthusiastic and possessed of the wisdom and good judgment of Solomon.DRAW UP A CHAIR FOR THE FELLOW .\t(The Printed Word) Every month or so some profound thinker makes a statement on how many Canadians he thinks there will be by the year 1980 or some such date.Statements like these are fairly sure to draw attention and perhaps that is why some of them are made, as it is known that almost everyone is inerested in the subject.Of course there are a few people who don't want more Canadians, because they don\u2019t feel they have the ability to compete with them, or because they have a mediaeval distrust of strangers, or for various reasons that seem adequate to them;\"but, whether one is for or against immigration, he is likely to be interested in it.One of the attractive features of the subject is that most people feel they can talk as much as they like about it without having to do anything.Immigration is a matter for the government, they say.Immigration is something for \u201cthem\u201d to do something about, they say.Weaklings chatter a good deal, usually, when nothing can be done, but they become quiet in a crisis and are usually looking the other way or tying a shoe lace.Some weaklings can hardly wait for an event to get past before they start criticizing, but one hears little from them while the event is going on, while others are trying to do something about it.Chattering about immigration seems a safe occupation, as the matter is out of the hands of individuals, depends on conditions in Europe, or on who has what job in the immigration department, and governments seldom do what the voters want voters who couldn\u2019t get to the polls that day for one reason or another.All these things and others are said by too many, even by those who are not weaklings, for immigration is so attractive a subject in its seeming impossibility of being tackled by an individual.Let the weaklings beware and serious folk take thought.There is a good deal that the individual can do.If he does not happen to know any good foreigners whom he might encourage and help to come here, he is almost certain to know at least one human being who has lately arrived here.Let the talker on how there should be more immigration arise and do something about the newcomer.Draw up a chair for the fellow.If this seems too much of an effort, at least a talker should not mind talking to the newcomer.The competing product in the next show window continues to draw off the newcomers along with a lot of oldcomers.There may not be much that can be done to dissuade a third-generation Canadian from accepting that job in a cigarette factory in Richmond, Va.After three generations a man ought to know his own mind.But newcomers may leave from ignorance of the opportunities here.Whose job is it to tell them about Canada?Many newcomers leave, however, because there is more here than the climate that grows chilly, or so it is thought in some quarters.Curing this misapprehension about Canadians is definitely a job for the individual, for friendship is a personal matter, not one that can be loaded on a government to look after.\\ mans cast off from the

although these are served in the classrooms, is no canteen as yet.Arbourthorne school serves Arbourtho _ tate (housing development) which is a slum-clearance section which means that many of the
