Somebody is sure to get wind of it. o------o The ancients had a rule that I submit to you; To argue with a fool is proof that there are two. o------o Two old ladies were going for their first airplane ride. Said one to the pilot: “You will be sure to bring us back, won’t you?” “I’ve never left anybody up there yet”, was the pilot’s answer. o------o And if you want your car to bring you back make sure our boys keep it tuned-up for you.

Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Morley had as their dinner guests on Thursday evening Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Ilod- gins, of Clandeboye, Miss Leona Pym, of Exeter, Mr. and Mrs. Wm French and. family and Mr. and Mrs. Melleville Gunning and Mur­ iel. The occasion was the 39th an­ niversary of their wedding. The W.M.S. and W.A. will meet on Thursday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Norman Hodgins. Mr. and Mrs. F. Squire and Ron­ ald were Monday visitors with Mr. and Mrs. Nelson Squire, of Farqu­ har. Mrs. Laverne Morley entertained the girls of Whalen and Mr. and Mrs. Hillis Foster and Jimmy, of St. Marys, on Monday evening in honor of her daughter, Marion’s 12th birthday. The school orchestra is small but is coming along with its faith­ ful practising. Under the capable direction of Mr. Cecil Wilson, the school’s music teacher, the orches­ tra will be showing its accomplish­ ments before we have a “White Christmas”. It is composed of; piano, Mar- jorie Hoffman; violins, June Wal­ ters and Mr. Wilson; traps, Bill Elliot; saxophones, Campbell Krue­ ger and Gerard Jeffery. Exeter High, for a school of three hundred pupils, has few mu­ sicians. Mr. WTilson is trying to remedy the situation by conducting a beginners’ violin class. He has eight struggling musicians who can now play several notes on each string, but wait until mid-summer- After gazing on the smartly dressed bugle band from Hanover High School at the W.O.S.S.A. track meet in London this fall, our girl’s were all pepped up for Exeter having one. It would cost something to start one, but we could get a grant if it were con­ nected with the Cadet Corps. Clin­ ton H., School has a creditable bu­ gle band, so why shouldn’t Exeter? The Student Council might get the ball rolling for another year if not this. There isn’t time in school hours to teach the fundamentals of string and wind instruments, unless, of For years Mr, Gordon Koch’s pupils have produced creditable art. Artistic ability is inherited or acquired early in life. It is unfor­ tunate that those who show some special ability in Grade IX Art could not be given further lessons, in order to give their natural abil­ ity an opportunity to develop with training. Several high schools might share an Art teacher in much the same way that the pub­ lic schools share a music teacher. Then Art, which has cultural Value could be taught in the upper grades. In keeping with the season, Mr. Koch’s classes are producing Christmas cards and wrappings. 'The latter is done with a print cut on a potato, and this is trans­ ferred in color to tissue paper. Many lovely pastels are now on display by Raymond Luck, Grace Regier, Douglas Murray, Gloria Ap­ pleton, Audrey Bestard, Mabie Selves, June Sinclair, Betty Mac­ Dougall and others. Further study in art may be secured at the Londan Technical School in day and night classes, or at the College of Art, Toronto. Com­ mercial artists are in good demand by advertising companies, by print­ ing and lithographing firms and by textile and wall-paper manufacture ers. EXETER TIMES-ADVOCATE L. B.
