RELY ON RELIANCE GRADE NINE INCIDENTS by Gordon Smith The time table for the final June examinations was posted on the bulle- tin board last week. For those who did their hdinewarlr regularly and lab- Cured continually 'all year completing the various assignments, if may or Taay not have an effect. This depends an whether or not they continued their ,excellent work throughout the final term. If they did, they will be reward- ed by not having to write these final tests. Instead they can enjoy the beckoning urge to go for a cool re- freshing swim or to attempt to catch the elusive trout gliding in the cool depths of a peaceful river or mean- dering creek. However, for those students who thought it more important to enjoy themselves, those who didn't find time to do their homework, and also the pupils who have the habit of being absent frequently it will mean long hours of studying and concentration. These students didn't think about avoiding the final examinations until it was too late. Can we assume that next year more students will study harder anti do their homework assign- ments regularly? I suppose time will tell! Numerous other activities will take place in the near, future, Several stud- ents who have vocal ability will par- ticipate in the Goderich Musical Pesti- val. On. May 15th grade nine awl ten students will travel to Q.A.C. at -Guelph, Since all. reports about this college are good. I am assured that all those who make the trip will find it most interesting and enjoyable, On June 1st, all Grade IX students, as well as others, will have a chance to display their athletic prowess. This event is always eagerly awaited by W. D. H, S. students and this year should- 0 - 0 - 0 HIGH SCHOOL NOTES AT W.D.H,S. n't be an exception. Since this is the initial time we students of nine have participated it should prove especially enjoyable. Last Tuesday the Cadet Inspection took place in the Town Park. The slogan "Practice Makes Perfect" may be applied because the accomplish- ment of hours of training and drill was evident on the day of the inspec- tien. However, the girls stole the spot- light with a fine exhibition of physical education exercises (from the boy's stand point), The weather was per- haps a little warm but could have been a great deal worse, The only casualty that occurred was the fact that one of the cadets couldn't button his tunic, (I won't mention any names). A com- plete report on the inspection appears below. Life at W.D.H,S. has proved ex- tremely interesting this past year and I think I'm safe in saying we will find grade ten equally enjoyable. , 0 - 0 - CADET INSPECTION' by Donna McLean • Sunny, warm weather was the out- look for cadet inspection last Tuesday, with shiny boots and smiling faces' everywhere you looked. At one-fifteen the cadets, P. T, demonstrators and the band, lined up at the school and marched to the town park. On arriv- ing at the Park they remained hi for- mation for the inspection by Major Bonner, Capt. L. M. Wecld, and Lt. A. P. Rankin, which was followed by the officers' salute. The commanding officer for the cad- ets was Roger West, and the other officers were Pete Campbell, Mack Cameron and Ron Meehan, The cadets were not the only high- light of the day as there were displays by the girls P. T. class, the band, the signallers, and the first aid group. The P. T. performance was given by the Grade IX-X girls under the leadership of Fern Cooke, Joan Loughlean, Dor- een Meehan, Eleanor Smith and Pat Carmichael, who demonstrated why students of Wingham District High School did not have stiff legs or necks. The band, under the leadership of Kin Grewar, gave a fine musical program with baton swinging demonstrated by our capable majorette Lois Crawford. The signallers, under the command of Ken Holmes, and stationed at differ- ent 'points around the field, were re- laying messages from one to another, First aid displays were acted by the XIII boys. Artificial respiration was demonstrated the way of today, and the right way used by hitting them on the back to knock the water out. They also showed how to tape up a broken arm with John Crawford acting as the patient. To end the day Major Bonner thank- ed all who had taken part in the after- noon's activities. He congratulated Roger West on his approaching trip to Banff, and said lie was pleased with the displays of the band, and other groups. Major Bonner also hand- ed out the badges to the following 'boys who had taken rifle practice dur- ing the winter months: First class, Bill Connell; second class, Ivan McKague, Neil Stainton, Mac Eadie, Bob Westlake and Bob Cathers. Mr. Higenell and Mrs. Williams, our P. T, teachers, presented the school letters to the following for school act- ivities: John Crawford, Ken Saxton, George Hall, Mack Cameron and Jean Hobden, The training of the cadets this year Was under the guidance of Mr. Jackson.

It was stated by the Fergus Hos- pital Commission, in plans submitted to the council that Guelph planned to make the old General hospital Into a .1.,••••• hospital .for climate patients, ',A'he del- egation learned that this is not true. In fact, the Guelph Hospital Board is opposed to having a chronic hospital, for finanelal reasons. The 'hew 'Guelph Genera' Hospital is said to have a deficit last year of $49,000. Qf this, $30,000 is the loss at- tributed to looking after chronic pat-. cents, There are 12 beds for chronic patients in the new hospital and when they are full, no spore are admitted. They are said to have advised the Per, gus delegation not to have a chronic hospital. DR. .1 .A.
