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.

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. ,

Sunny, warm weather was the out-
look for cadet inspection last Tuesday,
with shiny boots and smiling faces'
everywhere you looked. At one-fifteen

ets was Roger West, and the other

Cameron and Ron Meehan,
The cadets were not the only high-
light of the day as there were displays

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.

ivities: John Crawford, Ken Saxton,

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.

The new Reliance gasoline at our pumps
is the best we have ever marketed. It is a
- product of the most modern processing
equipment and refinery techniques so far
developed by petroleum science and tech-
nology.
New Reliance isn't :just a so-called im-
proved gasoline. It is all new. The anti-
knock characteristics of both Reliance Ethyl
,frand Reliance Standard are substantially
increased as a result of better octane ratings.
The volatility factors, which influence start-
ing, acceleration,_ warm-up and mileage, are
based on new, higher standards—all rigidly
controlled.
What does all that mean to you?
Just this: if your car is a recent model with
a high compression ratio engine you can
count on getting maximum performance
when you have new Reliance Ethyl in your
tank. All cars and most trucks are certain
YOUR FUTURE depends on them.
Don't be hindered in your work by the
"nerves", headaches and gastric disturbances
resulting from defective vision. The only
safe plan is to have your eyeseicareined at
least once a year. It's the smallest invest-
ment you can make—and the soundest. Do
it now.
