Excerpt from Report of the Minister of Education, Province of Ontario: For the Year 1923The Ontario school system continues to expand from year to year with every proof of being well adapted to the wants of the people Whom it serves. Its founder and great organizer, Dr. Ryerson, left free play for its development as the Province grew and as new forms of educational activity were required. Owing to its origin and history, the system's prosperity is largely in the hands Of local boards which, being elected by the school ratepayers, are in close touch with popular opinion. TO enlightened views, therefore, much of the success which has been achieved is due. The Department in administering the school laws, as passed by the Legislature, could effect little in the way of vital reform without the consent and co-operation of the people at large. This support is never lacking and the sacrifices made by the parents of the Province, acting through their trustees, call for unstinted praise, especially in respect to the costs of education, which tend to increase and not to diminish. The condition of the school system at present, I have the honour to report, shows signs of healthy progress and of gratifying efficiency, but it also presents features which demand the serious attention of all, in order that defects may be remedied and Obstacles to further progress removed.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
