An historical lesson
Grade 7 and 8 students at Usborne Central School
went on a visit back in time last week when private

entertaining and educational presentation of life in the
1700s to the school.Walter, played by Londoner Keith
Croucher, was a German -immigrant who served with
the Loyalists during the American Revolution. During•

Panther profile
Hello and welcome to the Panther Profile. This week I
have some important pieces of information as well as
upcoming fun activities.
The student cards have come in. Some people have
already obtained their card but everyone who hasn't can
pick theirs up Thursday and Friday in the main foyer at
lunch. These are a must -have for Student Council activi-
ties so be sure to get yours.
Speaking of Student Council activtilk, we are having a
Halloween dance! It is going to be a lit-
tle different from previous dances
because it is a theme dance. The
'theme for the Halloween Dance i
"Hawaiian Style". There will be a real
working volcano and much more so
grab a costume and be prepared to
dance the night away on Thurs., Oct.
28.
There are still a few diplomas left in
the office from this year's Jamie Reaburn
Commencement. They are available to PANTHER PROFILE
be picked up in the main office during
normal school hours.
To all parents, the office asks that if you know your
child is going to be away from school please take a few
minutes and give the school a call. They have a Safe
Arrival program that calls home in the first period if
someone is absent and a quick phone call from you lets
them know without having to call your house. There is
someone in the office by 8 a.m. so please help them out.
Guidance reminds graduates they should be checking
the bulletin board outside the Guidance office for dates
and times of representatives from universities and col-
leges. Also, a reminder to graduates planning to attend
university, there is the University Information Program_
on Wed., Oct. 27 at Madill in Wingham.
Grade 9 students should be checking with their TAG
leaders about when they have sessions and making sure
they attend them. There is also a bulletin board outside
the office with all the dates and times.
That's it for me, see you next week!

Auxiliary makes purchases
EXETER The South

dent Agnes Aunger pre-
siding. Reports from the
Region 2 Fall Conference
held in Guelph on
September 27 were
given by Mary Fisher,

Guest speaker Sandy
Hodgins spoke on the
breast screening pro-
gram and how women
are very good at looking
after other people, often
neglecting their own
health. She closed by
asking that volunteers
promote the breast
screening program. She
was thanked by Jane
Newman and presented
with a gift of money.
Director of Nursing
Maureen Cole reported
that two physicians have
toured the South Huron
Hospital and there are
two others who are
interested. Perhaps one
or .more will decide to
bring their practise to
Exeter as there is a
shortage of physicians in
the area.
The 'group decided to
spend $1,200 on a cast
cutter to be used in the
emergency and x-ray
departments.

served lunch.
