The Huron County Board of Educa-
tion has achieved its goal of providing
industrial arts and family studies
education to every grade seven and
eight student in the county.
--The McCurdy -Public School- in -
Huron Park has just opened its new
industrial arts and family studies
classrooms and is bringing students
in by the busload from several south
Huron public schools. •
Principal Pat Soldan explained that
this program at his school is the last
phase in a step-by-step program
uiidertalcen by the county to offer in-
dustrial arts and family studies
county -wide. The northern part of the
county has had such prograrrws in
place for a while, but it was not until
this year that the students in the
southern part of the county could en-
joy the same benefits.
Sohdan-said the McCurdy School
was choosen for the location of the
facility simply -on the basis that the
former air force base school had the
necessary room to house the equip-
ment, and its location close to
highway 4 made it geographically
accessible.
Industrial arts teacher Harry
Brooks is pleased with his room full
of brand new equipment and he jok-
ed that it was a far cry from his
previously portable work bench which
arts
he wheeled from class to class. The
shop, which focuses on the working of
wood and plastics, cost about $30,000

Usborne, Exeter, and Stephen Central
Public Schools.

.• gone as the girls happily chisel away
on lathes and- the boys eagerly grease
pans to go in the oven.
The McCurdy School is holding an
open house on Wednesday September
30, 7-8:30 p.m. so that all parents who
wish to view the school or the new
facilities are welcome to attend.

Wheeler reading the Gospel for the
day.
For the children's focus, Rev.
Wheeler asked the children to look
around the church and name the
many kinds of bread. fruit and
vegetables we must be thankful for as
in many countries children are dying
of starvation. .

teresting account of the order of Ser-
vice for the Consecration of the Very
'Reverend Percival Richard
O'Driscoll, Dean of Huron to serve as

Paul Zurbrigg of Century 21 All Points
