They prove I have attained grades 9 and 10 Math, English and French. Education means more than a slip of paper, though. According to the dictionary, "education is the systematic development and cultivation of the mind and other natural powers. It begins in the nursery, continues through school, and also through life, whether we will it or not." Perhaps the time-worn cliche "experience is the best teacher" will never become outdated. Last week I paid my tribute to the little red schoolhouse. This week I've been contemplating my other forms of education, I avoided the hustle and bustle of high school. Instead I studied a correspondence course in the quiet privacy of my home. Of course, the latter method of study contains benefits as well as disadvantages. It offers an alternative for students who cannot attend regular classes. If a worker wants to further his education, he can mould a correspondence course to fit his schedule. Similarly a housewife can study while maintaining a home, The student works at his own speed without pressure from teachers or competition from classmates. As a result, his sense of responsibility develops. When I felt lazy, for example, I couldn't depend on a teacher to prod me, I had to prod myself. Facing a textbook, a writing pad, and a stack of envelopes alone can be frustrating. Explanations sometimes lose effectiveness when delayed in the mail. I don't envy the instructors, though. Communicating ideas to students hundreds of miles away requires a unique skill. My major complaint concerned a time consuming ritual.

Mr. Austin Dilling, 87, Strathroy, March 4, heading in which my name and address, the name of the subject, the grade, and the lesson number had to be written.I understood the necessity for the routine; nevertheless it was tedious, When I began spelling my name in- correctly, I decided I needed a vacation. My vacation continued for seven years. Then I enrolled in a part-time English course at Clinton's Conestoga College. This proved to be one of my most rewarding decisions. After a few weeks, I recognized the two important ingredients that were missing from my correspondence studies - association with other people and a purpose. Each student follows his own schedule. However,there are ample opportunities for sharing and comparing ideas. It's also encouraging to have an in- structor seated at a desk 25 feet away rather than 200 miles. I now realize I studied by correspondence only because it seemed the logical thing to do. On the other hand, I enrolled at Conestoga with a goal - to develop my writing interest and ability. Recently I received a cer- tificate from Contestoga College stating that I have successfully completed the work for grade 12 English. I also possess letters Rebekah lodge plans dessert Pride of Huron Rebekah Lodge met on Feb, 20 with Noble Grand Mildred Thomson in charge.

Welcome neighbor Day of Prayer the village, They now live at the Maples. The Shapters came to Hensall from Huntsville, where they had lived since their marriage. They are originally from Toronto. Mrs. Shapter worked at Canadian General Electric until 1970. She would like to start working again, probably part- time. She is in the choir and the UCW at Hensall United Church. Her husband will probably take a job there too, as both are very active in the church. Mrs. Shapter has also joined the Women's Institute. She likes Hensall very much, and says she was surprised to make friends so quickly; "The people are very warm and friendly." Mrs. Shapter was "delighted" to come to Hensall, naming a more pleasant climate as the main reason. She is "looking forward to an early spring", when she plans to start cycling again. She also enjoys travelling, and has made several trips to the West Coast. She hopes to go East next summer.
