Madill of Wingham District High School reports that the three orienta, tion nights held last week for Grade 8 students who will enter Grade 9 next fall were well at- tended. Some 211 students of a possible 245 visited the school, Tuesday evening saw the Grade 8 students from the Bruce inspectorate and from the Wing- ham and Teeswater Separate Schools in attendance. On Wed- nesday evening it was the young people from the Huron Inspec- torate and from Howick Cen- tral School and on Thursday evening from the Wingham Pub- lic School. On the first night board member Ross MacRae ad- dressed the gathering, Wednes- day, Murray Cardiff spoke and Thursday, Dr. W. A. McKib- bon, chairman of the board ad- dressed the pupils and their par- ents. Principal Madill and Vice-Principal Robert Ritter al- so spoke briefly. There was a large turnout of parents on all three nights. They heard a panel of high school students describe the dif- ference between elementary school and high school. On the panel, moderated by staff mem- ber J. M. Kopas, were Ken Crawford, Paul Tiffin, Donna Malick, Wendy Cronkwright and Kathy Kaschinko from Grades 10, 11 and 12 and all taking different courses. Under questioning the panel members all agreed that home- work was perhaps, the one single factor that stood out as the main difference between elementary and high school work. They made a number of suggestions as to proper habits for home- work and suggested that there were many extra-curricular ac- tivities for the students which are good, but these activities should be programmed so that they do not interfere with the regular school work. The panel waylaid the fears of Grade 8 students on the physical size of the school. They agreed that nearly every newcomer will get lost at first but they will shortly be able to feel at home even if it is a big building. Attention was given to the prefect system, whereby a group of older students supervise in the hall, and during activities. Paul Tiffin said, "They are something like policemen, they are your friends and can be a big help." Mr. Kopas asked why some students who do well at ele- mentary school fail in high school. Panel members thought some of the reasons may be that these students do not get proper habits for home- work, or that they are thrown by the change from having one teacher to a grade to one teach- er for each subject, or it may be because of other activities. Members of the panel out- lined why they chose the var;- ious courses in which they are enrolled and pointed out the variety of subjects and options that are available in the school. Following the discussion the Grade 8 visitors toured the school and lunch was served to the boys and girls and their par- ents. MISS SANDRA MacLENNAN Daughter of Dr. and Mrs. K. M.

ELEANORE GOY Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Rennie Goy, graduated last Friday with a degree in Ba- chelor of Household Science at the convocation held at the War Memorial Hall, Guelph University, The modern superhighway can make driving a breeze, but the ordeal of getting on and off these engineering marvels can be a nightmare -- unless you know how to do it. These expressways may spot from two to eight lanes. The motorist approaching the high- way is often confronted with a maze of entrances and exits which seem specifically design- ed to confuse him. Some Cali- fornians claim you can be lost for days on the Los Angeles Freeway. An exaggeration, but it points out how easily the un- wary drivers can blunder into dismaying situations on today's super-roads. The Canadian Underwriters' Association has some advice for getting onto such a road smooth- ly and then getting off again -- safely. Know in advance the en- trance or interchange you want to use. Keep a careful watch for directional signs, especially when travelling on unfamiliar roads.

The brush-out: After a thor- ough brush-out, give top sec- tion a bit of back-brushing for height, then comb smoothly from left to right (for' over forehead) to forts a thick cap of hair ending III flipped cutis. Bring lower hair forward for deep waves over the eats. The March winds will love this eas- ily teased head. MARY KING Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Owen King, of Walkerton, a recent graduate of St. Joseph's School of Nursing, London. She plans on taking a course in Public ,Health at the University of Toronto in September, Watch for instructions as to the proper lane for approaching the entrance. Know in advance your desir- ed direction of travel so you don't end up in the wrong direc- tion. If you do make a mistake, don't cross a median strip or at- tempt a U turn. Continue to the next exit and enter again by the correct ramp. Having approached the super- highway properly, you stilihave the problem of melting into all that swiftly-moving traffic. Avoid a full stop, if at all possible, on entering the high- way. Instead try to merge your vehicle smoothly into the traf- fic flow. Stop only if traffic will not permit a safe merging. As you move along the ap- proach ramp estimate the speed of the flowing traffic and plan your entrance for a break in the flow. Always signal and keep sig- nalling until you move into the traffic flow. Increase your speed as you enter so other cars on the road don't have to brake to permit your merging with the traffic. Once you have merged with the traffic, stay alert to traffic on all sides. When you pass another approach ramp, courte- ously permit other cars on the approach ramp to merge smooth- ly with the traffic. The good driver will slightly reduce his own highway 'speed to permit another car to move safely on- to the road. Having found your way safe- ly onto the superhighway, you still must face the problem of exiting from the road. Watch for a sign advising the distance to your exit and allow at least two miles for making lane adjustments.

Check yourtnir, rors. Watch for blind spots as you switch over. As you approach the exit, slow down very gradually until you have reached the decelera- tion lane. Again reduce your speed to the posted limit as you move onto the exit ramp.

Bruce Insurance Agents' Associa- tion, held at the four Aces in Clifford on Wednesday evening of last week. It really proved to be a"hol- iday" week-end in the Presby- terian Church here. The elec- tric organ decided to take its own little vacation from week- ly duties and remained silent. Did our congregation decide to take a holiday, too? Did they have a quiet and uneventful service of worship without mu- sic? No, indeed! Under the leadership of Mrs. Alvin Mun- dell and the senior choir, they raised their voices in song, without the organ, and the hymns never sounded more joy- ous and melodic! Even oldjoe Flat-note in the back pew, who usually is afraid to open his mouth, was singing at the top of his lungs! Who says we can't get along without today's mod- em conveniences? Mr. James Aitken of Dono- van, Saskatchewan, and his daughter, Mrs. Bernard Dustaf- son of Cookson, Saskatchewan, are spending this week visiting friends in this area.
