I and at Lucknow school November 10 HOW IMPORTANT IS YOUR RADIATOR CAP? Commencement exercises will be held at Wingham Dist- riot High School on Friday ev- ening, December 1st. The date was set by the school board at its regular meeting, held at the Lucknow School last Thurs- day. Principal F.E. Madill said Dr. K.D.

Allason, principal of the Lucknow District High School, told the board that ar- rangements for commencement there had been made for Friday, November 10th. Noel Mason, former principal at the school, will be guest speaker. SCHOOL NAME The board discussed at some length the advisability of changing the name of the Wing- ham school, It was suggested that since the board has been named The Huron-Bruce Dist- rict High School Board, the school should have the same name, and a motion to this effect was made. However, before it came to a vote it was suggested high school should be changed to secondary school.

Campbell, of 8lyth, the Deputy District Gin. ernor, paying his official visit to the club, spoke briefly on "Inter-Club Visitation". He said he would like to see all clubs in the zone partake in this inter-club visitation during the year, to arouse more interest in Lionism and to encourage an exchange of ideas among the clubs. He was introduced by Lion Elmer Parrish, and Lion George Joiner expressed to him the club's appreciation, and presented him with a small gift. A draw won conducted by the tail twister in which a number of Lions won prizes. Plans were discussed for the annual Farm- ers' Night to be held on Mon- day evening, Nov. 20th, in Gorrie. dies suddenly William Emerson Timm died suddenly at the home of his sister, Mrs. Lloyd Felker, He was In his 54th year, Mr. Timm was born in Turn, berry Township, and lived with his parents on the borne farm until 1989, He then moved to Listowel and was employed by the .Listowel casket factory unr til October of last year, He is survived by one sister, Mrs. Lloyd (Gladys) Felker of Howick Township, and one brother, Harvey of Bluevale, Funeral service was held Friday, October 6, from the Moir funeral home in Gorrie with interment in Wroxeter Cemetery, It then appeared that due to the building program a name change at the present time would cause considerable cler-, ical problems. As a result the motion was dropped and the subject will be taken up again next year. WIN SHIELD The board was informed by letter that the cadet corps had scored 861 points of a possible 1, 000 and as a result had won the Stratheona Shield. This award has been won by the corps on several occasions in the past. The board directed the secretary to write a letter of congratulations to Major Robert Ritter, chief instructor. The secretary, Miss Y. McPherson reported that a dup- licating machine had caused trouble and repairs would be expensive. The board agreed to replace the machine with a rebuilt model. REPORTS Principal F. E. Madill said that the building program has been moving ahead since the bricklayers' strike was settled. Work is being concentrated on the administration area, which is slated for completion by February 5th. Work will pro- gress on the south-west section and one gymnasium this fall and this area is slated for com- pletion by May 6th. However, the dates are only projections, and subject to change. He re- ported that a fuel pump prob- lem on the boilers was recti- fied during the week. The board granted permis- sion to close the school on Fri- day, November 3rd to allow for a professional development day for the staff. The princi - pal said each department head is arranging the details for his respective group. Emphasis is on new techniques in teach- ing. Mr. Madill said the property committee had given an OK to order drapes for the two port- able classrooms. These will be made long enough to be re- used in the electrical shop when the portable rooms are no longer needed. The board agreed to pay for bus transportation for the school cheerleaders to a rally in Tor- onto at the end of the month. Permission was granted Vice-principal Robert Ritter to attend the Ontario School Counsellors' Association meet- ing in Ottawa, November 9 to 11.

John Taylor, chairman of the transportation committee, reported that increases of five cents per mile over 08 miles per day had been granted to the bus operators. Principal Madill told the board progress reports will be issued to all parents on October 27th. Enrolment at the end of September was 1, 028 with av- erage daily attendance running 979. Principal Allason said en- rolment at the Lucknow school was 173 and attendance during September was 97.8 per cent. He also reported that the music program in the school is re- ceiving keen interest. The band has 45 members and the choir has 100. Five of the 12 teachers are assisting with the program. The board agreed to pay for the lumber to build a set of portable risers for the choir. A ventilation problem in the gym was turned over to the property committee for investigation.

ICE Wayne m Fri- resters orches- lunch, 19b ss Well, it's not an ornament. And its principle purpose is not just to keep the coolant from spilling out. Without ds.7 it your car could not operate property. Radiator caps prevent your car's engine coolant from boiling out of the radiator through pressure. Each pound of cap pressure raises the boiling point three degrees, cool- ing the engine more efficiently. An ordinary non-pressure system, for instance, reaches a boiling point at 212 degrees Fahrenheit, A pressure system with a 13-pound cap adds a 39 degree extra capacity by bringing the boiling point up to 251 degrees. The water pump and, heater depend greatly on the radi- ator cap for their efficiency. It prevents loss of antifreeze and water and it minimizes vapor lock and detonation. In addition to the standard radiator cap, there is a special cap available to prevent scalding by boiling coolant - It features a button in the middle of the cap that releases pressure instantly. Your pressure system should be checked periodically .43 to make sure that the pressure is up to maximum to allow full operating efficiency. A well equipped garage will be able to check the pressure and tell you if all is well. AUCTION SALE!
