When I asked, "did you
join a club or team this year?
Why or why not?," I
received the following
replies.
Christy Davies 12C "I didn't
join a club or team in the
school this year because I'm
already involved in many
clubs outside the school."
Cathy Brighton 12A-"Are
you kidding? I'm going hunk
hunting instead." (watch out
Mr. Campbell)
Faye Forster 12C-"I'm going
to go to the Stocks and Bonds
club because I want to get
rich."
Anonymous "The school
does not offer anything I'm
in, terested in."
Ann. Webster 12K "I'm
going to join Drama because
I enjoy acting."
Kemp Currie 13A "Yes, I'm
joing the Downhill Ski Club,
Drama, Choir, Cross Country
Ski Team, Audio and the
Underwater Basket Weaving
Team. I'm also on the
Student council (The man
with the bands). Clubs are
lots of fun and I like to put
forward an effort to help
better the school. The main
reason, however is that I
want my name in the Madill
Mirror."

Mr. Bender
at Madill
for 17 years
Mr. Dave Bender, a
geography teacher at F.E.
Madill has been instructing
at the school for seventeen
years. He grew up in
Hanover, attended the
town's high school and went
to University at what is now
known as Wilfred Laurier.
Mr. Bender was not
exactly positive about what
he wanted to do, so when the
opportunity arose at
Wingham, he gladly filled
the position as a geography
teacher.
His attitude towards F.E.
Madill was expressed as
"a great school with great
students." He also added
that "the advantages (of
teaching) outweigh the
disadvantages by far."
Mr. Bender spent the
summer coaching the
Wingham Girl's Bantam Ball
Team, playing Slo-Pitch in a
teachers' league, canoeing
and 'book-collecting. In the
winter, his hobbies include
curling and racquet ball.
The Centennial reunion,
this past summer, was very
enjoyable for Mr. Bender
because he had a chance to
meet many of his former
students. Another recent
pleasure for him, is that his
daughter, Sarah now attends
F.E. Madill.

Watch as they drift gently to
the ground, and just for the
pure joy of chasing a maple
leaf, try to catch one.
Breathe in the fall smells:
the burning leaves, the wet
soil, the corn silage, and the
unique odour that seems
reserved for the fall, one
which can not be described
but is there all the same.
Stoop down and touch the
earth. Feel its moist firmness
and marvel at is productive-
ness. Hear the geese over-
head? Watch them. Do you
see hOw perfectly arranged
they are? Not a bird is out of
place. And listen! They honk
now. Is that their farewell
cry? Doesn't all this stir in
you the old primeval senses?
Let your joy out. Just for the
pure fun of it, stand in the
rain, or better yet, roll in the
fallen leaves. Isn't the world
beautiful?
And people. People are
beautiful, too. Open your
eyes and see the beauty of
people, See the resplendent
colours of the latest fashions
and watch the eternal chan-
ging of faces as they walk
k bylyou ,. Go past those
exteriors, though, and see
the true beauty of people;
their ability to care, to love,
to be themselves. Each is an
individual and each feels that
same pulsating ihenie that
it truly is great to be alive!
Just for today, let the
world know that it's great to
be alive. Smile for the sake of
smiling, laugh for the joy of
laughing, and LIVE for the,
love of living.
