Editorial Where will you be next week? By Mariam Doucette Reflections of '"I wonder where I will be next week at this time" or "In ... next Week, I hope the weather is nice," etc., have filled the heads of many seniors at CRSS this week, as they prepare themselves to em- bark upon trips to "merry old" England, Spain, and Morocco and "beautiful, sunny" St. Petersburg, Florida. These beautiful thoughts, which, seed to be even sweeter than vlsl ons of sugar plums, block out all memories. of "NATO" the Industrial Revolution", Shakespeare, what x+y equals. all those recollections that are vital for writing exams. Oh well! Just think of all those educational tidbits one will learn upon their trip only to be tucked away in tl file of "useless information". I myself believe heartily in travel, for it is very broadening and it is much by Mrs. H.F.

"Merry old" England allows students to take a trip through the pages of history as Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, and the Tower of 'London all await CHSS students.

So, Bon Voyage and may everyone have a Happy ,Midterm Break! xh/ ti 44 • • • • secondary �chr�o The benefits of Who can deny the benefits of exams? We. the students live in a cloistered world, far from all aspects of the 'outside world.' If we are to survive in that atmosphere, we must be prepared. And. Exams can prepare us for that world. Where else could we learn to cheat with such skill and cunning? A lot of time is spent on finding out and com- municating the new methods of `gaining' knowledge. (It encourages the inventiveness in us). Paper hidden under. fingernails is quite painful but effective. Little remin- ders on Kleenex, erasers, hands, feet and who knows where else are also, quite good. but a little messy. Soon though, someone might come up with the perfect way to cheat. This skill will come in handy as we arrive in the real world. After all, there are income tax forms to fill out, insurance men and court systems to fool. But, with all our learned skill we have no need to fear. We will survive! Besides the great skill of cheating, we also learn how to disguise the N -minuteness of our knowledge. We learn that one point can-` be -stretched into at least a four paragraph answer, if it's padded with enough extra thoughts. This comes into so much use. Just ask Annie This week Annie.consists of a survey. on alcohol and you. This survey was taken from the latest "Seventeen" magazine and i ;fates that a positive response to these questions may suggest a drinkingproblem. 1. Do I drink one or more times a week? 2. Do I drink at lunch time? At breakfast? 3. Do I hale problems with school becae of alcohol? 4. Do I make up stories about being to a drinking party? 5. Do my friends comment about my drinking either distasteful or amusing? 6. Do I hang around with people who drink and who think it is cool to get drunk? 7. -Must I ,have a drink to go to a party or date etc 8. Do I drink to make myself outgoing and char- ming? 9. Do I find I can't have fun without a drink? 10. Even when I get drunk on a certain number of drinks do I still take another one the next time? ' 11. Do I need more alcohol' to get 12.

It's so nice to feel secure in the knowledge that we go into life prepared. Not only do we go into life prepared, we go empty of oar frustrations; Our frustrations have been drawn out of our Minds and bodies onto the examination paper. We can get back at our teachers. Let them unravel our hurried writing afterall, i13 their fault for making the exams so long that we had to write sloppily. After two sets of exams the year I's will be a little prepared for life, up to the Year 5's who are completely ready for the outside world. Teachers.

Something cute, or something that is copied from a book or magazine, or is the topic the important thing. not et- pression or the way it is presented, not even gram- ••• matical errors taken Into consideration.
