Boys Learn Wrestling,
Print little' Ink Spot
A new activity which will at
tract many o-f the male students
is wrestling. Taught by Mr.
Wooden,\ this instruction is pres
ented as part of Cadet training. ,■ Last Friday night, the Paper
Staff sponsored one of the must
successful parties in recent school
history. This was a combined
skatihg party dnd dance. The all-
inclusive price of fifty cents also
(provided a bottle of pop and; a
ddughiuit to ‘ each student, The
fichooh, orchestra played many
favourite dance selections,.
A pew project edited by Jim
Crocker, head, of the paper staff,
-was introduced to the students
just prior to the Christmas holi
days. This project took the form
of a student newspaper appropri
ately ' named “The Little Ink
Epot”.
The issue carried not only an
interesting editorial but also a
column on plans for the 'Christ
mas party- This event, now a
tradition at the school,, Included
a turkey dinner to whicli at least
two board members came, and
a showing of "Pride and Preju
dice”. The rest of the paper con
sisted of literary and humorous
sections.
The paper staff believes that
the issuing of these papers will

ents with the opportunity to
write articles for student publi
cation as well as give other mem
bers of the paper staff the chan
ce to edit an issue.

a poor sport.
Unless there is full co-opera
tion among the students* of a
classroom, classes are tedious
for both the teacher and the
pupils. The student who refuses
to participate in the discussions
in class often, antagonizes his
fellow classmates and provides
more worry for the teacher.
Lastly, the wallflower at the
party who refuses to join in the
games adds more trouble to the
frustrated hostess. At
dances, unless everyone will co

A SHORT STORY
By HELEN TAYLOR
Sportsmanship
One of last year’s students,
Elizabeth Hunter, wrote the fol
lowing article on Sportsmanship
which appeared in The Ink Spot:
“What is true sportsmanship?
Is it cheering excessively for
your home team? Is it praising
the efforts of your team, while
disregarding the hard work of
the opposition? Does it exist only
in sports or does it apply to all
phases of life?
To me, sportsmanship Is the'
ability to co-operate with other'
’people in sports, in classroom
tactivities an at social functions.
The person- who admires the
ability of his opponents, who will
do his part to help his class
mates and who is willing to sac
rifice a little of his own fun for
the enjoyment of others is the
perfect sport.
Spectators criticize players for
being poor sports, yet often their
constant nagging helps the play
er to lose his temper. Teams
Rippling muscles suddenly
contracted to hardened steel
under a tawny coat, and a hurt
ling form was violently ejected
from • the tree tp land squarely
on the back of the unsuspecting
colt. One lightning-swift slap of
that raking paw on the colt’s
heck, one wild scream of pain
from the terrified animal and it
was all over—so the mountain
thought.
But he did not reckon on the
justified wrath of the herd,
leader. Thundering into the
clearing, he charged straight at
the hissing cat. The magnificent
bla<?k stallion missed his mark
as the lion leaped nimbly aside
and crouched^ to spring, his yel
low eyes glowing with a fierce
lust for blood.
If he had landed on the en
raged stallion's back, the out
come of the fight would have
been 'clear. But Fate did not will
this. The cat’s foot slipped on a
rotten branch and he missed Ms
goal, only to become the target
for a pair of murderous hooves.
Tramping, stamping hooves
pummeled the tawny, screeching
mass of claws and fangs until it
was a lifeless thing.
Then, sniffing contempuously
at the cat, compassionately at
the unfortunate colt, he raised
his. clarion voice in a trumpet
like challenge and returned to
his herd triumphantly.
McGillivray
Board Elects
The inaugural meeting of the
McGillivray Township School
Area was held on Wednesday,
January 4 in the township hall
at West McGillivray.
Brydon Taylor and
Brest were returned as

that the trustees be paid $5.00
for each meeting in the year in
cluding special meetings. For
merly they were paid $5,00 a
meeting with a limit of 12 meet
ings. The board will meet on the
fourth Wednesday of every
month at 8:30 p.m. in the town

overn Pond Grants
new regulations have
been added to those governing
the subsidizing of farm ponds by
the Ausable River 'Conservation
Authority.
Farmers wishing grants on
(ponds must make application
through the authority member dn
their municipality and they must
agree to spread and level the
earth from the pond.
proved at the annual meeting of
the Authority in December,
In a recent circular to con
tractors and newspapers, the
Authority outlined the method of
obtaining grants on farm ponds.
The circular read:
"■Effective December 7, 1955,
the following regulations must be
complied with in full in order
to receive a .grant from the Au-
sable Authority on farm ponds
Ausable
Night Depository
Eliminates Risks
To help merchants and other
businessmen avoid the risk, of
keeping cash overnight or over
long (weekends the Bank of
Montreal’s Exeter branch has in
stalled an "after-hours” deposit
ory unit. This night-depository
system enables customers to de
posit their business receipts at
any hour iof the day or night
and has already proven a boon
at ' other-' 'important B of M
branches throughout Canada.
Operation of the unit is very
simple. ’Each night - depository
customer ds given a key to the
depository and a small canvas
wallet fitted with a lock. Upon
unlocking ' the depository, the
customer places the wallet in the
opening. The wallet then slides
down a chute and comes to rest
in the safekeeping unit inside
the bank. In the morning, bank
officials collect the wallets and
record them. The customer can
then call at any time to make
Ms deposit in the usual way. Al
ternately, a customer- can in
struct the bank to open Ms Wallet
and make the relative deposit
entry in his name. >
- "The ‘installation of a night
depository at this branch,” states
manager C. EK Shaw, “is part of
the B of M’s plan to provide
many of its offices from coast
to coast with the new system.”
NIGHT DEPOSITORY SERVICE—First deposit in the new
after-hours accomodation installed at the local branch of
the Bank of Montreal waS\ made this week by C. S. Mac-
Naughton, left, of Jones, MacNaughton Seeds Ltd. Manager
C. E. Shaw assists with the deposit. The service will permit
stores to get rid of cash at nights or over weekends. The
bank hopes this may cut down the number of robberies
which'increased during 1955.

The farm forum topic for this
Monday evening "Who benefits
from Price Supports?” caused
considerable discussion .amongst
the forum members. ■
Fairfield Fann Forum
Opinions varied at the Fair-
field forum held at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Wilson.
Some thought when prices were
changed the middle man got the
profit. Others thought the con-'
sumer paid more for the goods
he buys.
Price supports were all right
for t'he taxpayer but floor and
ceiling prices should be adjusted
oftener according to manufact
urer’s prices; others thought the
taxpayer paid more to help pay
for price support. ;
The wageearner is affected
when there is a surplus and: prices
are lower but if there is no sup
port the producer will not foe
able to buy from the manufact
urer and as a result the laborer
is out of a job.
(Some thought the supply and
demand ruled, rather than price
supports but the latter keep
prices more or less stable and
therefore keeps production on an
even keel.
The next meeting will be held
at the 'home Of Mr. and Mrs. Mel
King.
JElimville North Forum
The concenses of the Elimville
North Farm forum meeting at the
home of Mr. and Mrs. William
Johns Sr. was that everyone 'has
benefitted from price supports
because there is not the price
fluctuation that there used to be;
the wage earners are benefitting
because they get their butter and
other products cheaper than if
there were no supports.
They felt that farmers have
benefitted from price supports
in Canada as they have been used
to keep farm prices from drop
ping to distress levels
Parr Line Forum
The Parr Line Forum
were agreed that price
helped everyone—the consumer,
,the taxpayer and the wage-earner
and the overall cost* of price sup
ports ,-is very little in comparison
to the benefits they give.
As for the farmers it prevents
■them from going all out for one
crop of product which may be
at a high price thus preventing
surpluses. Price supports -have al
so been stabilized.
After the disc.ussion euchre
was enjoyed with Mrs. Stewart
Blackwell, the winning lady, and
’Charles Robinson, the winning
gentleman. Mr. and Mrs. Glen
Weddo were host and hostess.
Hillcrest Forum
Hillcrest forum, meeting at the
home of 'Mr. and Mrs. -Rea Neil,
were also agreed that price sup
ports were beneficial to all and
they prevented the farmer from
economic disaster. 'Some crops,
livestock and eggs are not now
paying for the cost of their pro
duction even with price supports
in the area.
<At the next meeting held at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jias.
Sigsworth each member ds -re
quested to bring a sugge'stion for
greater highway safety. .
