residence in Dublin at 12:30 p.m.
The new board offices are

joining Ursuline Order Convent,
The two religious consultants
for the board, Miss Teresa Woods
and Miss Mary Kennedy, both of
Stratford, gave reports on their
religion program in the 19
separate schools in Huron and
Perth based on the book
Canadian Cathechism.
The consultants said they
would like to report to the board
at a later date on the program
content as carried out from
Kindergarten to Grade 8. Miss
Woods spoke of the spiritual
growth of the teachers through
workshops and a credit course in
scripture at university level. She
said 30 teachers from the board
area are taking the course at St.
Jerome's College in Kitchener.
Student retreat days for grades
7 and 8 candidates preparing for
confirmation were discussed and
reported to be favourably ap-
proved by priests, teachers and
A light lunch of home made

AILSA CRAIG
A 'miniature house completely
composed of various kinds of sea
shells and furnished with scaled
down furniture was one of the
many fascinating items viewed
by the Riverview Women's
Institute at their last meeting.
Seventeen members boarded a
chartered bus in Ailsa Craig, and
headed for Strathroy to tour the
local museum.
President, Mrs. 1. McAlpine
conducted the business aspect of
the meeting in one of the museum
rooms. Mrs. Lyle Lee and Mis.
Charlie Garrod were area
delegates for the convention held
October 15th-16th at St. Thomas.
Mrs. Harmon Morton was the
convener for the meeting and
read a poem entitled, "I Love
Antiques". Mrs. R. Leitch chose
Psalm 147 for the scripture
reading, and Mrs. W. McEwen
spoke on the motto, "Hats Off to
the past and coats off to the
future". Mrs. Hussein Currie
read a poem about the famous
rock of Ailsa Craig off the coast of
Scotland.
Mrs. McDonald outlined briefly
the history of the Strathroy-
Middlesex Museum which was
originally built in 1871 by a Mr, &
Mrs. W.H. Murray. At that time
the Murrays owned and operated

Apparently, one person's name
should be added to the long list of
people who visited the Mt.
Carmel area during the
Thanksgiving weekend, Gary
Curtis, from Windsor, is a cousin
of Mrs. Pat Darling. Mr. Curtis
stayed with the Darling family
for a few days of his vacation,
The Darlings are well known as
the proprietors of the Country
Corner Store in Mt. Carmel. Don
and Pat Darling recently did
some travelling themselves,
They travelled to Toronto to see a
showing of the new 1976 motor-
cycles. They were both ex-
tremely impressed with the
upcoming year's line-up of bikes.
In the case of Mrs. Catherine
Morrissey, it's true that you can't
keep a good gal down, Mt. Car-
mel's oldest resident recently
returned from a week-long stay
at the home of her daughter and
son-in-law, Winnie and Hubert
Desjardine. The Desjardines live
in Amberly, a community just
north of Goderich.
The residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Hubert Salmon (Hey, isn't that
where I live?) was a hive of
years.
The girls in this area are
reminded of the meeting of their
4-I1 Club, on the evening of
Thursday, October 23, at the
Harry Van Osch residence.
Those readers with good
memories will recall that in my
first article as Mt. Carmel's news
correspondent, I asked for your
help in collecting news.The phone
has not been ringing, so I'm
repeating my plea. Please call

newsworthy tip. Someone will be

How many Guardian readers?
By JOY SCHEIFELE
Locating enough chairs for all
the members to have,a seat was a
happy problem faced by the 4-H
Homemaking Club when they
met Tuesday, at the home of Mrs.
Bill Chamberlain in Ailsa Craig.
Twenty-two persons were in
attendance.
As the theme of the meetings
deals with being well dressed, the
group decided to call themselves
the "Groovy Groomers".
Information on how to store
articles properly was discussed
at the meeting. Instruction was
given on the proper care of
clothes, the importance of
hanging them up and folding
them in the correct manner etc.
The girls all felt this was
knowledge they could use. They
continued to talk about the
various types of storage in use
today and different ways items
can be stored.

room in which to produce an
annual production of the Inkspot
which, for the most part, only is
read by the students. Why
shouldn't we be able to get a room
in which we can turn out a weekly
newspaper?
It's about time that the present
"Guardian" staff helped to make
things better for the future
newsreporters of South Huron!
We don't have any intent of
producing our own newspaper
because it would involve a great
overhead cost. It would also cut
down our contact with other
people outside of the school. Our
effectiveness and contacts
wouldn't be so, great. pt,
We just want someplace where
we can produce articles and have
meetings with a bit of privacy. At
present, our meetings are con-
fined to the seminar room in the
library. There we are continually
being interrupted and the next
issue of the paper is a general
scramble at the last moment.
If you have any comments
please write a letter to "The
Editors" of the Guardian.

"The Editors & Staff"
in the T-A every week' offers a
form of communication between
the students, their school, and
their activities and the people of
the area. In this light, it can be
said that many people other than
the students read the "Guar-
dian".
Our audience of readers varies
greatly, although their reason for
reading the school page is usually
the same. It offers them a contact
with the school and the students.
The members of the board of
education read it to find out
what's happening.
Parents read it to find out
things that they aren't normally
told about by their children,,,
Townspeople read it because the
school is part of their community.
Whatever the, reason for reading
it, we appreciate everyone's
support.
But, how is 'it, that with all
these readers backing us up, we,
the staff of the "Guardian", are
quite unable to be provided with a
room where we could quietly
produce articles to make the
newspaper larger and better? As
of now, we're not nearly covering
all the aspects of school life that
could be of interest to the public,

By JOANN ONDREJICKA
The clubs of the school have
been steadily increasing in
numbers now that school has
settled down to a basic routine.
Varying, from chess to cooking
most students are able to find a
club .that provides them with
something of interest to do in
their spare time.
The chess group try to squeeze
a club gathering in whenever
possible. The possibilities of
playing chess just happen to be at
lunch and activity periods, and
thats where you'll find anyone
with a knack for the game.
For those with a flair for food
students,
Miss Woods said twilight
retreats will be held at Our Lady
of Mount Carmel on October 1.6
for Zone 2; St. Mary's School,
Goderich, on October 29 for Zone
1; St, Aloysius School, Stratford,
with the theme building Christian
Community for Zone 4; and on
November 20 at St. Columban
School, for Zone 3.
The consultants invited each
trustee to attend the retreat in his
zone "to pray together for better
understanding."
Board chairman David Teahen
of Stratford, informed Miss
Kennedy and Miss Woods that the
religion program is one of
themost important programs in
the separate schools.
The two superintendents of
education on the board, Joseph
Tokar and Alexander Easton and
the business administrator Jack
Lane were given new ad-
ministrative titles. Mr. Toakar
will be superintendent of special
services, Mr. Easton, superin-
tendent of program, and Mr.
Lane, superintendent of business
and finance,
The board approved its con-
tribution to the group life in-
surance 'be adjusted from 75
percent to 80.
James McDade, teacher at St.
Columban School, was given
permission to be nominated as a
candidate for assignment for a
loan of service to the teachers'
department of National
Dependants' School overseas for
a two-year tour of duty.
Miss Mary Hoy of RR 1
Sebringville, was hired as a
music teacher for 20 percent of
the day,
The school custodians basic
salary was increased six percent
over and above the existing
contract effective October 1.
Stratford trustee Ron Marcy
was named board representative
on the steering committee set up
to design an Implementation
Model for the board's system of
schools.
The administration is studying
the restructuring of the schools in
the system.
Trustee F. J. Vere of Stratford,
chairman of the building and
maintenance committee reported
the drain at the board office has
been completed at a cost of
$1,500.
The board maintained support
for the Kiwanis Festival at
Stratford again this year by
making a grant of $100.
Superintendent Easton at-
tended a preliminary meeting in
Toronto on September 29 in
preparation for Education Week
to be held in April. He concluded
his report on the meeting by
saying a successful Education
Week depended on the County
Committee for Education Week
and the School Committee for

Hard times, hard to beat!
A new movie with a different
flair for action can be seen 'in
London at the present time.
"Hard Times," a movie por-
traying the hard core back alley
fighting of the depression is one
that you'll remember for years to
come.
The movie shows us two sides
of a world that really existed. The
rich and the poor truly had dif-
ferent characteristics and ideas.
We are given a view of society
and money as it really was. An
excellent film in all respects this
movie will be enjoyed by all those
who are willing to face the truth
of the matter and the depression
as it really was!

I am Gossip . , The name for
a poor little word that the world
could well do without, but never
will, Those who use me should
hang their heads in shame, For I
am always teamed up with
exaggeration, disloyalty and
envy. I seek to tear down and
destroy. I am unchristianlikel !!
Are those strong words???
Perhaps but not even strong
enough, and whenever the shoe
fits, put it on.

Come in and say hello Or call
By DONNA FLEMING
South Huron's junior and senior
athletes proved their outstanding
teamwork this week while
beating opponents during various
sports.
The senior boys' volleyball
team won their last three games,
making a good comeback after
losing seven in a row.
Victory was in store for both
junior and senior girls' basket-
ball teams. Both teams played
excellent games against Mitchell
and Seaforth with good scores as
the result.
Next we look at the muscular
football teatns. The junior "men"
played a strong game against
Strathroy.
Running into view come the
speedy characters of south
Huron, the track team, These
young people kept in top physical
condition, which is why they won
the Huron Perth championship
held on October 17.
I am Gossip . . I've been in
the world since the world began.
Pm only a little word, a name for
an action, but the damage I do is
great. I'm a vicious game that
provides entertainment for men,
women, politicians and even
governments and ohl how they
love it.
What is more fun than
character assassination?? and
those who use me put me high
above other things, sometimes
even mother love. When they
hear a rumor, they can hardly
wait to get to the phone, to dash
next door or get to the nearest ear
available to pass me along and
spread my poison!!! And they
know I will be passed along!
I am Gossip . . . A dirty word,
I am filled with malice, unkind-
ness, uncharitableness, and
venon, Harsh words are they not?
And those who indulge in this
cruel pastime usually have little
or no regard for truth, Truth
would spoil the fun! Everytime
the gossip is repeated it grows
and grows. Finally it is distorted
until it is quite different from
what it was when it started.
I am Gossip . A sorry
sneaky word. I can ruin a
reputation, break up a home,
wreck a politician or even change
the image of a great nation, It has
been done!
I am Gossip A miserable
wretched word, I am particularly
fond of those who work in public
office, or who work with the
public, This is really fun, watch
every place they go end with
whom?
Watch every move they make.
Listen to everything they say.
Sooner or later they'll make a
mistake or do SOMethirig
suspicious (being human) when
this happens, hurry, hurry,
hurry!!! Get your -digs in before
it 18 proven that whatever it was,
was legitimate and above
reproach.. And don't bother to
of If you are the kind
