DANGER TO CHILDREN
HEADMASTER’S WARNING “There is much that our branch, the largest in New Zealand, can do in a broader way outside strictly educational circles.” said Mr. Spenceley Walker, the retiring president of the Auckland branch of the New Zealand Educational Institute, at the annual meeting this morning. “There are many problems in the social conditions of the children which we have never investigated in the past, but which will. I hope, receive the attention of the incoming committee.” Mr. Walker referred specially to the introduction of the American talkies which, he considered would have a bad effect on pronunciation in the Dominion. He also drew attention to the dangers of unsupervised Saturday afternoon children's matinees.
