School in Exetei1
Although the flu bug has bit’
ten several adults in Exeter the
Public School children seem to
be warding off the epidemic
very well. Some children have
returned with notes bearing the
message, “Please excuse Johnny’s
absence from school as he has
been very ill with the flu.” As
yet no note has been received
‘equal to one quoted by an En
glish educationalist in a recent
school magazine .—
hasn’t come because
been. I’ve given him
to make him go and
gone he’ll come.”
The excitement of
the new school is increasing as
painters and carpenters apply
the finishing touches. It seems
• such a short while ago that we
listened to the roar and clang
of the cement mixer as it cough
ed out load after load of cement
for the foundations of our new
school, yet the time, measured in
hours of coal gas, has been long.
Well lighted classrooms, with
the heat thermosatatically con
trolled, will soon be a reality
and when the children come to
school at nine o’clock they won’t
have to wait outside for half an
hour for the rooms to clear of
coal gas,
The anticipation of moving to
our new school has made a fine
subject for some of the senior
pupils to exercise their talents
for writing poetry. Douglas
Wein, in Grade 5, certainly has
some
poem,

Mr. G. G. Gardiner, Inspector
for South Huron, paid his offi

week. The Inspector’s visit is no

we look on it as an opportunity
to discuss our problems and in

The Kumjoinus Class of

social evening on Monday,
26tli in the Church.
Earnest Jones took charge of
the meeting which opened with
the singing of some well known
hymns, followed by prayer by
Mr. Mahoney. The business was
then taken care of. The class
have some money on hand and
discussion took place about what
improvements we could make to
the church. A committee was ap
pointed to look after it.
Each of the members had
a baby picture of themselves and
these were put for the members
to guess who they were. This
was lots of fun because 35 and
40 years ago, the boys were not
dressed like boys therefore some
of the boys had girls names and
some of the girls were identified
with boys names.
Games were enjoyed and lunch
served. Mr. Medd was in Lon

very good, but would be glad
