Classes Cancelled If any parents in town were interested enough to appear Tuesday night for the planned, parent instruction lecture in pre­ paration for Saturday morning recreation classes, they were dis­ appointed. There wasn’t a lec­ ture. The Home and School Associa­ tion wisely palled its head away from the stone ■wall that it faced in last year’s effort, and at a meeting held Monday decided against classes this- year. There simply wasn’t the parent interest to support the scheme this year. For those interested in and parents, appointment makes members of the Associa-5 tion wonder if there is much use in trying further to create inter­ est in their group. Years ago when school lessons v ere so clearly divided from home interests, perhaps the need for such a group as the Home and School Association was not so great. Now, however, with modern teaching methods, the phrase "home and school” takes more significance in building the young lives .of our children. The group deserves a big “A” for effort and much more, interest, because its only cern in functioning is to our children. who were actively the classes, children it is a great dis­ and it certainly Ah, Spring I Well, all the red, and green is put away for another year, the children have broken in their new clothes after one of the longest school holidays recorded. The younger ones have broken their new toys, and the stores seem pretty empty in the after­ noons. Right about now we are quoting, "If winter comes, can spring be far behind?” And spring is in the minds of merchants now. Fashion experts claim that the full skirt is out this spring and we must be as slim as possible to do justice to what’s planned for us after the snow is gone, Thank goodness we live in Exeter instead ot Paris—we’d be blackballed there as far as fashions are concerned!* * * According to' word from Ot­ tawa, we’ll soon be' using coins bearing the head of Queen Eliza­ beth, The new coins were issued to most chartered banks Monday this week.* Entertain O.E.S.

DAVIS with Park- * * * Who’s Got The Buttons We’ve searched the town and we can't find of all things, a button. Perhaps those more wise in the ways of button replace­ ments can advise us. We even tried to find a set of buttons to make, up for the lost one on friend husband’s coat and if we were to use What was available, we’d have to make the button­ holes half an inch bigger. It's more desperate than you think. For weeks, while the search went on, the poor boy’s been going around with a one- button-roll on a two - button sport’s coat. We’ve given up honing for a good five cent nickle but there's still a glim­ mer of hope that somewhere, someday a, good five cent button counter will appear for the of confused button losers.
