.Hon, Dr.Choquette ditacked what he tershed the strange statistics which are given every year relative to public imatrucsion.The conclusion that the voluntary school attendance show ed am average of 95 per cent.naturally shaok the faith even of those who believed in a compulsory law.But now the opponents publicly admitted that the statistics upon which they relied were incomplete and insufficient, because the census mathematically left aside half of the school population of she Province.These statistics were at least useful to mislead the public migd.~ 6nd,\u201d said he, \u201cthat in order to combat a law which must not be so sidiculois, \u2018after ait, since we and the Bolsheviki ate-the only ones which have not yet adopted it, problematic percentages on schooi at- tendanct have been created for years with the aid of figures which are known to be without value I am led to ask if the same proceeding is nor employed, if the same .insincerity is not invoked regarding the success in teaching in the schools and the pro- progress made by the children.wonder if it is not on exaggerated and fantastic statements, which arc known to be such, that the conclusion is reached that ofr school system is superic?, that our mechanism is perfect, and that Parliamént end the Council of Public Instruction is so maternally\u2019 warned.against any attempt gto infringe upon it\u2019 1 Choquette then quoted le by the e progress He said it was In the 6,085 ichools of our Pjovince; there were only 14 notes lower than \u201cgood,\u201d or about one for every | y five hundred schools.Dre Choquette went on to say that spart from.these public and official reports the school inspectors were requfred after each inspection to make a brief comfidential school authorities.were human and it was always more agreeable and more easy to pay compliments than to condemn.- report to the The inspectors Hon.Dr.Choquette then took up the reports of inspectors of Protest: ant schools.schools there were 122 notes which Out of 769 Protestant ae 4 Jo ; MIT Sup lrg ar.\u2019 a EL barn oe gre a; en wo ean gee i | À affirmed false reports made by school inspec- tora were responsible for the froquent changes pf teachers ia schools, Physicians, he said, were punished when they made faise reports concerning public health.School inspectors who made false reports om the progress made in echools were equallys guilty.He affirmed that he had no grievance against inspectors, bat was simply agzinst the system and those who wished to mislead the public mind.All he wanted was thet the public be truly informed on the value of the schools and on the nature vf the progress made by the children.Hon.Thomas Chnapais replied to Hon.Dr.Choquette, expressing his astonishment that\u2019 the {atter should make such a violent attack agsinst the school inspectors relative to the veracity and loyalty of their reports.As far as he was concermed in the distriet which he knew particularly immense progress ad been mede in education within a few yours.He said that the inspectors in their report on schools took into consideration the condition of the buildings and the facilities as well as the books employed and the success im teaching.As à member of the committee of the Council of Public Tastruction, he was in favor of the revision of the school statistics, but it was not with the idea of doubtins The veracity of the reports of the school inspectors.Hon.Dr.Choquette in reply, seid that he had to admit that there were no school statistics upon which to base opinions.A pr of this was that in certain cases number of pupils going to school was higher than the number inscribed.He had wished to point out the singularity of the schools statistics of the Province and show how much harm was being done by these statistics when seach an important question was being considered.The motion was carried.Ë CTE OHO DEE RI OE BG DW aD ° !
