On March 28, the grade
two pupils visited the Sales'
Barn. We saw some cows,
cattle, and bulls being sold.
We first looked at the calves
and baby pigs. We toured
the cows' stalls and cattle in
their pens and bulls in their
confinements. We really had
fun at the Sales' barn. We
saw some sows and boars in
their quarters. We strolled
into the old cafeteria to look
around in it. Then we enter-
ed the new cafeteria and we
ordered some food to eat
such as hot dogs, gum, pop,
chocolate bars, chips and
then we returned to the
school. The End. —Paul

saw the new snack bar and
office. All the people in the
office were women. Mrs.
McCall showed us around.
We saw pigs, cow," piglets,
calves. When we reached the
calves' ring we must have
gotten there early because
nobody was" in sight so we
left. I saw one of my uncles.
It was Ray Breckenridge and
my friend Joe Raynarcl. A
lighted, number in the area
where he was working
showed us the weights of the
cattle. A man called the
prices of the cattle like this -

How to cope.
Stress is something we encounter every week of the year But
during Mental Health Week, from May 4th to the 10th, we're putting
the stress on knowing how to cope with it.
Stress is a part of normal living.
And a lithe stress can even help individuals realize new successes
or achievements.
But evidence is mounting that excessive or prolonged stress is
linked to majorillnesses.
So the trick is not to ignore stress.
But to understand and control it. And now, during Mental Health
Week, is a good time to start.
If tension, anxiety and daily pressures start mastering you
instead of the other way around, try;dealing with them in a few
simple ways.
Keep up your general health. Good physical condition can help
you cope with stress situations.
Talk about or work out your problems. Talking and physical
activity are emotional outlets which can help put problems into
perspective.
Give your support to friends, family and co-workers during
periods of stress. As it helps them, it can also take your mind offyour
own problems.
Learn some of the new methods of controlling stress. There are
all kinds of techniques, from the simplest to the most sophisticated.
And finally, get more information on how you can understand
and deal with stress, by writing to: Ontario Ministry of Health,
Resource Centre, Queen's Park, Toronto, Ontario M7A 1S2.
After all, the more you know about stress, the better
you can cope with it. And Mental Health Week is a good
time to start
