Throughout Christendom, the Words of these well-loved carols are familiar even to little children, and they'll be • heard this Christmas wherever carolers get to- gether. "Joy to the World" was written by Isaac Watts (1674- 1748), English hymnist. Watts, who is known as the creator of the modern hymn, wrote nearly 600 hymns. Many of these still appear in ProteStant hymnals, says the Encyclopedia Americana. "It Came Upon the Mid- night Clear'" is the work of Edmund H. Sears, a Unitarian minister in Massachusetts, more than a century ago. • Perhaps the most famous of Christmas carols, "Silent Night" was first sung on- Christmas Eve, 1818, to guitar music. • Mice in the bellows had silenced the organ 'of a tiny Austrian church. Father Jo- seph Mohr met the challenge by writing f "Silent Night." His. organist composed a melody for guitar. Father Mohr's inspiration— aside from the mice—was the vast; still beauty of the snowy mountains around the village, 6 0h come, all ye faithful" is translated from the Latin, "Adesteo Fidelis," and its exact beginnings are shroud- , ed in the mists of time.

Com- rade Allan Nicholson, District 'Poppy Chairman, wishes to ex- press his sincere appreciation to the citizens of Seaforth and district for their most gener- ous response. This year a total of eight hundred and eighty dol- lars and sixty cents was col- lected through the sale of pop- pies and wreaths. Comrade Nicholson also wishes to thank the students^of the Seaforth Dist- rict High School for their part in making the Poppy Campaign, a success by producing a cam- paign poster with this year's theme on it, "If You Can't Rem- ember Think". Their partic- ipation did not go unnoticed by the Veterans or by the citizens of Seaforth., Comrade Nicholson stated that he was very impressed with the Parade and/ Remembrance Service on' the" 11th of Novem- ber and also wishes to thank all those, who took part. By John D. Baker Public Relations Officer Branch 156 (Continued from Page 2a) Norman. Hodgson, Department of Education, London, a former " high 'school principal in Peel as County, sat in on the discussion. He'd had experience with the system and was asked to com- ment upon it. • Hodgson said that good com- munications with the parents and with the elementary schools is of the utmost importance, He said a great • burden is placed 4-6 on the school but that the pupil and the pupil's parents now figure even more largely In the stud- ent's final success. In his experience, Hodgson said, students took more credits than necessary to obtain their diplomas, mostly, because they recognized the value of a broad base of knowledge when search- ing for a job. Better marks were sought after too, he said, because a ' transcript of their achievement would go° to their prospective employers at the end of school. . Hodgson also pointed out that a transcript of the marks was .received" by employers who found they could now dif- ferentiate between the students who had received diplomas and those .who had .earned. diplomas with good marks, ' Hodgson did imply ,that the guidance dePartment of the school was a key part of making • the credit system work well but he didn't /say that it wouldneces- sarily mean that additional money would have to be spent on guid-' ance. He—suggested 'that the structure of guidance depart- ments xYitght have to be changed drastically ,to permit the new work load, but he warned the board it might become necessary for them also to "take a look at priorities". "You must build your schools on trust and Confidence," said Hodgson. "Don't trap kids into rules they can't live with'. As soon as you put barriers up, someone's going to attack you and win. So why put that barrier there in the first place?" 'You can't measure how successful a student can be' when he' is motivated," concluded Hodgson. "Pupils are still going to take' what is lao6t for them," said CHSS Principal Robert Homutli. Several members of the board as well as an English teacher from SHDHS, Bruce Shaw, were concerned that English would no longer r be a compulsary sub- ject. In fact, Shaw stated that he could seethe teacher becoming "an entertainer" and wondered if ig scholarship" would be "sacri- ficed for amusement". Shaw said that what used to be known at university as ''Mickey Mouse Courses" could become the order of the day at high school since students could get a secondary school graduation diploma with any 27 credits they chose. Hodgson said that If he was a teacher, he would be offended to think that his associates thought he was teaching a "Mickey Mouse Course" and said that if he was a principal, he would be insulted at the inference that "Mickey Mouse Courses" were offered at his school. "All courses should be made aifficult enough so that only the students who work or are par- ticularly adept at these courses would do well in them," stated HOdgson. * If there are Mickey Mouse courses in the school, someone should be respontible for getting them out. But we have to have basic trust in kids. They don't always take the easy way out." • Members shoUld note that when paying their annual dues this coming year they will be required to, fill out a form.
