Moving Day Well, Monday January 3, was the big moving day for the students .of grades 9 and 10 of the Wingham District High School. As you probably already know/seven rooms of the modern, new school had to be opened to-day to accommodate the homeless pupils of the Wingh&m H-huts. The students left for school at their usual time with their few remaining books, and entered the school' by the north entrance. They stepped insidg the glass doors to a long, smartly-de­ corated corridor. Along each side of the corridors, as far as the eye could see were lime green individual lockers. The wall above the lockers is a med­ ium shade. of gray and the ceiling blocks of white, green, yellow, and rose. For the first few minutes there was a great hum of excitement, but finally each student was given a locker num­ ber by one of the staff. .Some of the lockers had to be shared by two stud­ ents. The students were divided into their usual classes and, as before, Grade 9 consists of two large classes of girls and two classes of boys. This new method does not completely sat-, isfy the Grade 9 girls but it will just be for this year. After the coats were hung in the lockers etc., the classes were shown to their classrooms and every student quickly found a desk. The first thing to be taken care of by- each student was to find out how many books had been burned. The teachers went from class to class taking note of the number of books lost in the subjects which they taught. Because of the great commotion there would be if the students moved from school to school, the teachers did the moving and each student occupied the same desk all day. Many students got tired of sitting but sometimes were allowed to stand up and stretch between periods. This method will be used only until Grades 11, 12 and 13 come over to the new school in about a month. Mr. Ritter, the well-liked English teacher, blew a whistle at the end of each period. At twelve o’clock the usual one-hour lunch period was given to the town students. A long table, the whole length of the corridor, was set up for the country students, as the cafeteria is not yet in use. At one o’clock the usual classes were begun and because of the few books available not many new lessons could "be. taught. (This quite satisfied' the -students.) The buses came at their usual time (3.50 p.m.) to pick up the country students. The first day in the new school has come to an end, and I think if you could eavesdrop on any one of the pupils, you would likely hear how pleased they are with the school and how much they are going to enjoy attending such a fine school for their future years of education—the Wing­ ham District High School. Marianne McKibbon 9D 0-0-0 BACK TO THE “OLD SCHOOL” There seemed to be quite a few disappointed students as we started back to the old school. The reason probably was that the new school wasn’t ready for us to occupy and we were confined ' to the old building where the main pastime is climbing stairs. After being- used' to walking through the freezing alleyway to the H-huts, we seemed to be going around in circles. Instead of going for a walk around the halls of the building every morning, one trip through the ruins at poop was enough for us. I think most of us have two pictures of the building that don't seem to be connected—thp building as we passed through it for at least three years, and the ruins as they are now. The fire left Miss Davie homeless, so $he has taken over Room 6 which Mr, Anderson has vacated ip favour of the new school. Twelve B have moved to Room 5 which nine A used to occupy*. The teachers are having a field day running, walking, stumbling or slid­ ing between two buildings. Mr. Wool- frey wishes he had taken up running during the Christmas holidays, Mr. Seddon seems to have taken up resi­ dence in the new school because we seldom see him any more. Mr. Madill told me that about $23,000 in equipment was lost, $2,000 worth of books. Eleven B and twelve B students are travelling around with very few b°oks but, at least, this time, they have good excuses. We miss the other students of nine and ten because we can’t visit them at the new school and they aren’t supposed to travel to our building. So that is another reason for wanting to move to the new school. But in the meantime we are confined to our old school and we have resigned our­ selves to climbing stairs.

NO CURE-ALL “We have no cure-all for slick shiny "baldness,” Keele emphasizes. “If there is fuzz, the root is still capable of creating hair and we can perform what seems to be a miracle.” There is one thing Keele wants to be certain every man and woman knows. If a recession appears at the temples or a spot begins to show up on the crown of the head, there is something wrong and it should be given immediate attention. HAIR FOR LIFETIME “If clients follow our directions dur­ ing treatment, and after they finish First the Trichologist is ,quiclc to the course, there Is no reason Why tell hopeldss cases that they cannot they will not have hair all the rest be helped.
