I TP IN the northern Ontario bush country, students do go to
school, but the Canadian National Railways also brings the
school to the pupils. Converted CNR railway cars are the class
rooms. Hauled from town to town by CNR freight trains, the
school cars bring elem entary edu
cation to hundreds in sparsely-
settled-northern Ontario.
One of th e cars contains living
quarters for Teacher Fred Slonran,
bis wife and five children and a
schoolroom with books, desks, maps
and lending library. CNICs highball
ing classroom is uncoupled for a
week at a tim e near tiny settle
ments. Here, Sloman keeps school
daily for pupils from six to 18, gives
them home work to last six weeks
—when the car rolls around again.
W ith classes of three to 1C pupils,
Sloman gives individual attention
to scores of students each year,
Sloman graduates have become doc
tors. nurses, mine and mill foremen.
The school itself—started in 1926—
has proved so successful that Cana
dian National now has a school car
system for isolated children in a
number of outlying places.
The activities of the pupils in tha
rail schools are not confined to book
study alone. T eacher Sloman, who
pioneered the rural rail classes, a r
ranges enthusiastic songfests and
takes part iu the recess periods.
