A short program preceded the inspection. Held in the auditor- ium, which was filled to~ capacity, the program provided an oppor- tunity for the public to meet mem- bers of the board and area offi- cials who, through their work and co-operation, had made the school addition possible. In welcoming the audience, board chairman F. C. J. Sills told of the pride the board had in the school, a pride which he hoped was shared by the public. Reviewing the history of the school, Mr. Sills said that since it was founded in 1878, the school has had four additions. The first was in 1887, when four rooms were added to the existing four rooms, and this arrangement continued Nurses Learn Fire Procedures F. C. Anderson, of the Ontario Fire Marshal's office, lectured staff and nurses at Scott Memor- ial Hospital Wednesday on the use of fire -fighting equipment and pro- cedures to follow in emergencies. A second demonstration is plan- ned for a later occasion, when technique required in actual situa- tions will be demonstrated. The meeting was arranged by Fire Chief John F. Scott. Hospital property committee chairman J. • M. Scott presided and introduced Mr'. Anderson. News of Dublin Honor Family Leaving For New Logan Home for fifty years until 1938, when the white brick wing was built on the north side. In 1955 the offices and auditorium were added. The present addition includes four rooms and a cafeteria abutting the back part of the stage. Mr. Sills said the school. as it stands represents a capital outlay of approximately $400,000. "When you compare it with some of the million dollar edifices in the dis- trict, you might say we suffer: by comparison," he said. "Perhaps in outward appearances we do, but if you investigate fully, I think that you will find that our finish- ed product, the student, compares well with the student from any school anywhere." On the platform were members of the school board, Mayor Ed- mund Daly, Seaforth; Warden Iv- an Forsyth, Reeve of Tuckersmith and Warden of Huron, who brought greetings from the county, and Reeve Dan Beuermann, of McKil- lop; Reeve Tom Leiper, of Hullett; Reeve Stewart Procter, of Morris; Reeve Earl Dick, of Hibbert, and Reeve Cliff Dunbar, of Grey. Mr. Sills said Charles Mac - Naughton, MPP Or Huron, was unable to be present. He told of the great assistance he had been in working out construction details with the Department of Education. Commenting on the new addition and the improved facilities it of- fered students, Principal L. P. Plumsteel said that while it would be nice to have a complete new school, there were other things that were of greater importance. Buildings in themselves cannot produce students, he said. It is more important from the stand- point of the student and of the extent to which he benefits from his schooling that there be par- ents who are interested in educa- tion, interested in the progress of the student. The success a student achieves is a reflection of his home training and of the degree of self-discipline he has attained. Members of the SDHS Glee Club, under the direction of Lyle Ham- mond, contributed .several num- bers. At the conclusion of the half- hour program the audience roam- ed through the school, visiting classrooms and other facilities. Members of the staff were in the classrooms and explained proce- dures to the visitors. As the visit tors finished ..their tour they were entertained to tea in the cafeteria, Mr. and Mrs. Paul De Kroon, of RR 2, Dublin, were guests of hon- or at a farewel' party held at th.gjr home in Hibbert Township, before they leave for their new home in Logan, two miles north of Dublin. Euchre and crokinole were play- ed with high prizes going to Mr. Arnold Harris and David Gray; low to Mr. and Mrs. De Kroon, and lone bands, Dalton Balfour.
