V rit0E: TI EN THE WINGHAM ADVANCE- IMES Around School by Catherine Heating On Monday afternoon, May 12th, the entire student body, including cadets in ualforrn and the bugle band, mar- ched through rain, mud and peddles to the town hall to hear the honour- able Dr, McKinnon Phillips, Minister of Health for the Province of Ontario. Included in the afternoon's pro- gramme was the presentation of priz- es to the writers of the winning es- says in the contest sponsored by the Lions Club and the Hospital Board on the subject, "My Hospital and What it Means to Me." Mr. Davidson, the chairman of the Hospital Board, gave a report on the work of our hospital during the last year, He explained the great need of the hospital for more room and the board's plan for a huge campaign to raise money for an addition to our 48 bed hospital, We are hoping, however, for government grants to help us. John W. Hanna, our representative in the provincial government, intro- duce) Dr. Phillips and told of his work in the medical profession. In his talk Dr. Phillips explained the mean- ing of National Hospital Day, May 12th., and paid tribute to Florence Nightingale, "who raised the status of nurses from charwomen to one of the highest professions of women to-day." He discussed the use of toxoids which was started around 1900 and has grad- ually increased especially since World War I. To-day, smallpox vaccination and diphtheria toxoid are over 85(c sure. In 1950, according to Dr. Phillips, 79 children died from diphtheria and 206 from whooping cough in Ontario. These deaths were needless as they could •have been prevented by toxoid. It is unfortunate that there are still people who are opposed to the use of toxoids, rD, Phillips stressed educat- ing parents to have their children in- oculated against these diseases early in life. Dr. Phillips stated that a man's success depended on his contribution to his community, his province and his country. He said that to be good-will ambassadors, it is necessary to have an early start in life in our own com- munity. In closing his speech, Dr. Phillips urged us all to support the campaign that the Hospital Board is about to launch, to raise money for the building of an addition to our now over-crowded hospital, and to be good- will ambassadors in the work of this institution. Brooder Business by Clifford Coultes Since last September, Mr. Vogan and his shop classes have been work- ing on a major construction job be- hind the shop. Little by little it mat- erialized and last week emerged in its entirety as a brooder house, complete with a coat of paint, On Friday after- noon, it was officially opened. The boys of Grades 9, 10 11 and 12 posed for pictures in front of the brooder house, after which the building was dedicated by Raymie Bennett and Tom Webster. Mr. Jackson our atri- culture teacher, was presented with the key, Mr. Jackson expressed his deep appreciation of the efforts put into the work, and said that perhaps a fattening experiment would be car-, ried on in it next fall. With Mr. Vog- an and his capable crew of carpen- ters, a new high school would pose very little proilem so far as labour is concerned. OPEN NIGHT - by Betty Carter On the evening of May 14th, the Wingham District High School held open night. The best of the year's work was displayed by the students under the supervision of their teach- ers. Mr. Vogan's shop room and ad- joining room contained furniture, lamps ,and plastic kitchen utensils. Several of the first form boys demon- strated the various machines for the benefit of the parents. As usual • the home economics room had an interest. ing display with an added attraction. The boys became voluntary samplers much to the distress of the grade 12 girls, Good cooks, aren't they boys? The tape recorder proved to he quite a novelty' to some of the public school boys who had their voices recorded. The French Club composed a little program which was recorded. Much interest was shown in the competition for the school crest. Thirty-one crests Were displayed; numerous pieces of art done by grade nine, a display of hobby-craft work, and a mummy em- balmed by Raymond Bennett and Mack Cameron, all in Miss Heard's room. One of the feature attractions was a P. T, demonstration put on by the boys and dancing by the girls, And then of course, there were Mr. Jackson's chickens which always ap- pear the day, of open night. Mr. Madill guessed that 98 out of 136 eggs would hatch, and you guessed it, 98 out of 136 eggs hatched, What a mathe- matics department! There were also displays of Grade X projects in Mr. Martin's history room, and examples of otherrworrkooimn rooms, Commercial and CADET INSPECTION by George Hall On Tuesday, May 27th., the Wing- ham town park will ring with the strains of martial music, and with the tramp of marching feet, as the Wing- ham District High School Cadet Corps goes on parade.
