Takes holiday tho' car stolen When Hugh K. Wilson, 227 Andrew Street South, went out to his car early Friday morning to start his holidays, he found the car missing. Also missing was a freezer, water skis, liquid refreshments and other holiday equipment which was packed in the trunk of the car. The car was still missing at press time Wed- nesday afternoon. Not to be downed by such a thing as having his car stolen, Mr. Wilson borrowed a car and he and his wife set out for Orillia on Friday, almost on the time scheduled, to enjoy holidays. N-Joy-U-All ers, with 17 classrooms and other facilities. Because of the transient nature of the parents' occupation, Mr. King said he found the students had a broader experience and more background k no wl edge which aided them to more readily adjust to the changes in the edu- cational systems of the different provinces. He said, however, he was looking forward to the New- market position, because it offer- ed a different field of education, that of teaching administration. The experience gained from ideas and projects successfully com- pleted at the DND School in Cen- tralia will be an asset in his new position. He believes that any proven educational aid that as- sists the child to learn should be studied. iiiiiiiiiiiiillinliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiIIIIIIIIII111111111111111111111111111111111111111n11111111111111i111111111111I111181111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIIM MEET the T-A's new front office staff JANET DIETRICH Receptionist Janet graduated this spring from the commercial course at the S.H.D.H.S. and joined the T-A staff to gain prac.. tical experience in office routine.

Funeral service WAS field Tuesday, July 5 with burial in Toronto. The circulation of books at the Exeter Public Library, contrary to popular conception, goes up during the hot summer months rather than down. The librarian, Mrs. Sally Laing, lists some of the reasons for this. Due to the many activi- ties in town during the winter months, many persons use the summer months to catch up on their reading. Visitors in town during the summer months pro- vide new customers for the lib- rary. Exeter residents going out of town on holidays take books from the library with them. During school examination time there is a fall off in the number of students taking out books but this picks up again as soon as the examinations at e over. About 150 new books have re- cently arrived at the library, says Mrs. Laing. They include all types — juvenile, fiction, non- fiction, etc. Among them are three new books on golfing, books on camping, fishing and barbecu- ing. All of the list of best-selling books are also available. Right now there is anunusually large number of books overdue and people are asked to return them without further delay. When books are returned, sometimes odd book markers are unintentionally left in them such as bobby pins, personal letters, hills, tooth picks and sometimes, paper currency. No real embarrassing items have been found In them of late. 5 E They Will Be Pleased To Serve You E, = = = 7..,_:!.. 'trite eXefel*C"CtinICS-Aboocate 5--.

Yet, the toll of child drownings continues. It's not enough simply to tell our youngsters that they must not go near the water unless there is an adult present, Child- ren disobey many things but we scold them until they obey. Water is fascinating to a child. It provides a means of having fun. It's difficult for a parent to scold a child for wanting to have a bit of fun, but the fact still remains that water is dan- gerous. It takes only a few short sec- onds for a child to drown. Red Cross recommends constant su- pervision of children when they are near the water. A child's disobedience should be suitably punished. However ) his desire to play near the water Is not likely to be dampened as a result. 'The obvious answer is to enroll him in a Red Cross Water Safety Course where he'll learn how to swim and learn about water dangers.
